Leland Twp. approves resolution to sell Sunset Shores bonds

Leland Township unanimously approved a resolution to sell the 2025 bonds for the Sunset Shores Special Assessment District (SAD) in an amount not to exceed $1,280,000 on Monday at its regular board meeting.

Lisa Brookfield, Leland Township clerk, said the bonds will be sold on March 20, and then the township will know the full amount of what’s being bonded. She said residents within the SAD will have the option to pre-pay their share of the cost, an estimated $40,000, in full until March 15 if they do not want to finance it.

“Then at that point, we have the amount that we’re going to bond and it’s going to be bonded for 20 years,” Brookfield said. “But the next step is construction in the spring as soon as the snow is gone.”
