Built in 2002, the hall features a meeting space and offices that serves a rural community with a population about 4,400 in northern Livingston County. A five-member township board oversees local government services in a community that's part of the Hartland-Deerfield Fire Authority and is served by four public school districts — Hartland, Howell, Linden and Byron. The township also features Deerfiled Hills Nature Area, a 388-acre park at Green and Cohoctah roads and part of the Oak Grove State Game Area.
