# Sugar Creek Township Board approves a $67,000 Rainy Day Fund transfer for a planned property purchase

## What happened
The board considered Resolution 1-2026, which set aside $67,000 from the township's Rainy Day Fund (money kept outside the regular budget for unplanned costs) for a planned property purchase.

[1:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIOaqXDXN9o&t=60) The board said it had been saving toward an office purchase since a 2007 resolution.
