1. Define the intake geography before reviewing performance
Cannon township is recorded in Kent County, Michigan, and the 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate is 14,450, with a margin of error of 42. That is a description of the municipal geography, not evidence of demand or expected legal matters. A Cannon firm may serve clients beyond the township, so the first Intake Coach question is which calls belong in the same operational view. A call from Cannon, another part of Kent County or elsewhere in Michigan may follow different eligibility, conflict, urgency or referral rules.
Recommended approach
Write down the geographic boundaries your team uses when deciding whether to continue an intake. Then ask whether those boundaries should appear in coaching guidance, case-type routing or follow-up ownership. Keep the Cannon and Kent County relationship precise; do not use the township estimate to set a call target or staffing assumption.
