The Northport Sportsman’s Club use agreement with Leelanau Township is currently under revisions as the township board and the club’s legal counsel work through the language to make it something both parties can agree on.

Since the agreement was first brought to the township board’s attention in August, the document and the actions of the club have been called into question by several trustees, other township staff, and members of the public.

At the township’s Aug. 13 regular meeting, the club agreement was brought to the board’s attention by supervisor Mike McMillan. McMillan said during the meeting that the paperwork that should include the club’s signed agreement to use and maintain the 37 acres of township property is missing and cannot be found by either party.
