Ypsilanti SOS office to move,
will be closed June 10-14

New office to benefit customers, staff with improved features

YPSILANTI, Mich. –  The Ypsilanti Secretary of State office will be closed for several days next month as it moves to a new location nearby that features new customer-friendly upgrades, Secretary of State Ruth Johnson announced today.

Customers and staff will benefit from improvements that include power-assist entry doors, public restrooms, new customer seating, a new counter design and new carpeting. Customers will also now have 24/7 access to the Self-Service Station, which dispenses license plate tabs in transactions that only take a couple of minutes.

The office at 2720 Washtenaw Road will be closed as of Monday, June 10, and staff will complete the moving process on Friday, June 14. The office will reopen at 9 a.m. on Monday, June 17, at 4675 Washtenaw Ave. in the Glencoe Crossing Shopping Center just one-quarter mile west of its current location.

Office hours remain unchanged: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesday.

“This move reflects our commitment to efficient use of taxpayer dollars and convenient services for customers,” Johnson said. “We encourage area residents to see if they can do their transactions with us online first and, if not, come in and enjoy this new office.”

People who need to renew license plates, driver’s licenses and ID cards can do business online at www.ExpressSOS.com or by mail. Easy to follow instructions can be found with the renewal notice. Additional services can be done online as well.
