Wind River Update - Approval to Demolish

After years of trying to work with the owners of 7510 Wind River Drive, and failing to make any progress, the township finally has judicial authority to remove the structure that was destroyed in a fire over two years ago. Judge Jennings confirmed the resolution that we passed in July, authorizing our Zoning Manager to deal with the hazard which exists due to the burned-out structure and a failed attempt to renovate.

We are moving forward, obtaining bids for demolition. I am pushing to have this completed before Christmas, but sometimes the wheels of government don't move that fast (no matter how much I bug them.) To those interested, I will post here when we have a date scheduled for demolition. Neighbors are invited to come watch.

That wraps up a lengthy township update for 2008. Although we approved our 2009 budget at our last meeting, I will save detailed discussion of what is in the budget for a post early next year.

Sincerely,

DeeDee Liedel
Sylvania Township Trustee
