Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land today announced that the Mobile Branch Office will be in Battle Creek to serve customers on July 25 and 26.

Hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday, July 25, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday,

July 26. The office will be at the Battle Creek Veterans Affairs Medical Center, 5500 Armstrong Road.

"The Mobile Branch Office offers visitors a convenient option to conduct their Department of State business," Land said. "I encourage medical center staff, patients and area residents to take advantage of this opportunity."

The facility is a full-service Secretary of State branch office and is accessible to people with disabilities. It is hauled statewide on a 24-foot trailer that has logged more than 125,000 miles since it first hit the road 10 years ago.

Land encourages all customers who have Internet access to check out the department's online services at www.Michigan.gov/sos before visiting any branch office. For example, license tabs and watercraft registrations can be renewed online. Browsing the site will help customers determine requirements before they go to an office.
