The Leelanau County Road Commission did not hold their regular meeting at the usual time July 16. Instead, the road commissioners went on a fivehour tour of various roads in the county, reviewing completed projects and gathering information on new ones. Road Commission Manager Brendan Mullane told the newspaper about the highlights.
One of the places that the road commissioners visited on their tour was County Road (CR) 633, Cherry Bend Road, in Elmwood Township. The Elmwood Township board wants to complete a new multiuse trail off Cherry Bend next year.
Officials believe this multiuse trail will run along the south side of the road and go from Cherry Bend Park to the M-22 intersection. Mullane said that if plans for this trail move forward, the road commission will be involved with the project. But first, the township needs to secure funding.
