🏢 Garfield Township Office
Garfield Township's own township government keeps its local records: council or board meeting minutes, local ordinances and resolutions, local permits and licenses, and its own budget and contracts. Requests for those records go to the township clerk under the Kansas Open Records Act. Birth and death certificates, marriage records, deeds and court files are generally kept by county and state offices rather than by the township; see the offices below.
Garfield Township has no entry with a contact address in the 2022 Census of Governments listing, our source for local government offices, so we do not list a contact for its own office. Use the county offices below.
