Bay Mills ready to reroute Plantation "Dump" Road
|
Tribe acquires $1 million from BIA for road upgrades
 BAY MILLS - According to Bay Mills Indian Community Tribal Chairman Jeff Parker, the last major hurdle in the rerouting of Plantation "Dump" Road was cleared after the tribe purchased 80 acres of property near the old Lyons' Farm earlier this summer. The acquisition of the property means that the tribe now officially owns all the land from Lakeshore Drive to Half-Mile Road. It also means that the tribe can now reroute the road to go straight to the top of the hill, instead of meandering up its side. The newly built road will rejoin with the existing roadway on the top of the hill, where it will be paved to Half-Mile Road.
