The Leland Township board voted 4-1 to approve the deed transfer of the Munnecke room to Leland Township Library at its regular meeting on Oct. 14.
Review of the deed has been ongoing for the last few months. While documents for the transfer were originally handed out by library representatives to board members in August, the board voted 3-1 to move forward with reviewing the paperwork to pursue the transfer of deed at its September regular meeting. On Oct. 10, the board met for a workshop meeting to further discuss the terms of the transfer, and came to a final decision last week.
“I think this is a good thing for the library, the community, and for the township. We’re excited about the prospect of getting the seawall actually done in the foreseeable future,” said Leland Library Board President Berkley Duck. “We have work to do to raise the funds to pay for it, but we’re confident that we can achieve that goal.”
