Zoning


Antrim County does not have a county-wide zoning ordinance; instead, the local units of government have zoning authority. The five incorporated villages (Bellaire, Central Lake, Elk Rapids, Ellsworth, and Mancelona) and seven of the fifteen townships (Banks, Elk Rapids, Forest Home, Helena, Kearney, Milton, and Torch Lake) have their own zoning ordinances which are administered and enforced by a zoning administrator. (Click here for a map of Antrim County's zoned municipalities.)
