Through a partnership with the National Flag Foundation and the National Sheriff’s Association, the National Association of Counties is providing free flag retirement boxes to member counties, including Ottawa.

Flags deposited in the boxes will be collected and respectfully disposed of according to the U.S. Flag Code. Depending upon response, the Ottawa County box will be rotated on a monthly basis among County facilities. To start, it will be placed in the lobby of the Fillmore Administration Building near the boardroom.

10-digit dialing to be required for all calls in 616, 810, 906 and 989 area codes

Michiganders in the 616, 810, 906 and 989 area codes will have to use those area codes when dialing even for local calls starting on Oct. 24 this year, the Michigan Public Service Commission recently announced. However, callers are urged to start dialing all 10 digits beginning April 24 to get used to the new requirement. People who dial only seven digits will still be connected during this “permissive dialing period.” However, on Oct. 24, the change becomes official, and local calls dialed with only seven digits may not be completed. The reason for the change is that 988 has been designated by the federal government as the abbreviated three-digit code to reach the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Any area code that includes the 988 prefix must transition from seven-digit dialing to 10-digit dialing. Customers in other Michigan area codes aren’t affected by these changes at this time.
