Thanks for listening

To the editor:

At the recent Cleveland Township board meeting there was discussion about Segment 9 of the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail -— the proposed route through wetlands, rare dune/ swale areas, and forested dunes where 7,300 trees will be cut and retaining walls built to hold back dunes, in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.

Thanks to Supervisor Tim Stein and township trustees for listening to constituents and agreeing to reconsider your support of the Segment 9 proposed route.
