Showed up to get a marriage license. My fiance had to leave work early to get to the office before 5. We got to the office at 4:30…they turned us away because they don’t do marriage licenses after 4:15x… “because they take too long” she said. Then what do they do with the last 45 minutes they’re there??

I had occasion to stop at the Newaygo County offices to renew my CPL and the license for our dog. The ladies at both the County Clerk and Treasurer's offices were knowledgeable, efficient, and personable. The longest part of my visit was for me to fill out a required form. Excellent service, and no line on a Monday morning. I concluded my business within minutes and was on my way.
