Madison Heights Daily Briefing for February 7, 2026

Here is a quick look at what’s happening around Madison Heights today, from looming tax deadlines to water updates, voting changes, and weekend activities.

City Hall and winter taxes

The city is reminding homeowners that winter property taxes are due soon, with the last day to pay without penalty coming up on February 17. Residents are encouraged to double-check their bills and payment options now so they are not rushing in the final days.

Water quality and lead information

City communications continue to emphasize that local drinking water is supplied through a regional system whose source water does not contain lead. The remaining concern is older service lines and in-home plumbing, and the city is urging residents—especially those in older houses—to review recent mailings, learn whether their home may have a lead line, and consider simple steps such as flushing taps after periods of non-use.

New voting precincts ahead of 2026 elections

Voter information cards have been mailed to many residents as Madison Heights updates its voting precinct map ahead of this year’s elections. Some voters will have a new polling location, while others will remain the same. The city is encouraging everyone to review their new card now so they know exactly where to go before the presidential primary and November general election.

Schools and public meetings

The local school district has a regular Board of Education meeting scheduled for Monday, February 9, at 7 p.m. at Madison High School. The session is open to the public, with time set aside for community comment, and a live stream option available for those who prefer to watch from home.

Weekend events and library happenings

Today’s community calendar features drop-in cardio drumming fitness sessions, along with winter story time for kids at the library. A pizza tasting event is also planned, giving families another reason to stop by the library, explore the stacks, and enjoy a low-cost weekend outing close to home.
