As both parties continue to work out and revise a new use agreement, a few Leelanau Township board and Parks and Recreation Committee members met with Northport Sportsman’s Club members on Nov. 26 at Braman Hill shooting range to discuss possible environmental testing with Gosling Czubak Engineering.
Since August, the township and Sportsman’s Clubs’ legal counsel has been working to put together a use agreement as they have been unable to find a signed copy of the original one. One of the concerns brought up in recent months was soil testing of the property to ensure there are no traces of lead contamination.
Representatives from the township board, parks and rec, and club all agreed that the meeting at Braman Hill went well though, and are now awaiting for a more thorough report from Jeff Sisma of Gosling Czubak of the testing options they have going forward.
