PUBLIC COMMENT
Mr. Elkins opened the public comment period at 7:03 pm by discussing the marijuana
grow operation in Vassar Park subdivision. He stated that he spoke with resident Terri McDaniel
early today and after holding a meeting for the residents a few weeks ago the re have been two
meetings held at the township with a committee to explore options on how to rectify the issue.
There have been rumors about the grower erecting a 10-foot-high fence. Tim assured the
residents this cannot happen due to ordinance restrictions. A violation notice was sent on May
27, 2020; he had ten days to react. On June 10, 2020 he was served a Final Notice, and a second
Final Notice was sent on June 22, 2020 with a 10-day response. Nothing was rectified so a Civil
Infraction Notice was sent July 3, 2020 and this has gone to the court system. Additions were
added to the second Final Notice, that being why a second “final” notice was sent. There should
be a court hearing on or around August 10, 2020. We have taken the steps that we can and are
following the law which is why it takes so long.
Several residents had questions. There was discussion about why there were two Final
Notices sent, the ordinances that are currently in effect, new ordinances that can correct the
steps for this type of issue being developed, seeing the plants from a solid structure and why
this resident/renter is not following the ordinances and state law as the other residents have
to, using the resources we have to address and prevent this from happening, speeding in t he
neighborhood, changing the Yield Signs to Stop Signs, the fence being a structure and the
definition of such and there being an indoor growth at 7176 Houghton Drive. Mr. Lattie stated
that we have to work within the laws to solve this problem. There was further discussion about
business licenses.
Dawn Weier introduced herself and stated she was running for 67 th District Court Judge
in Burton.
The public comment period was closed at 7:35 pm.

I.T. Right Service Contract Renewal

past several years. They have been an invaluable service provider and have not raised their
prices since 2105 2015. She is recommending renewing the annual contract in the amount of

supplied by Oakland County G2G Cloud Services. It is an interlocal agreement which allows the
general public to make credit card payments online or over-the counter. The service fees are
charged to the user as the township cannot use taxpayer dollars to pay for these.

Veterans Memorial Cement/Tile Repair
Mrs. Shields explained the tile around the Veteran’s Park Memorial walls has
deteriorated to such a point there is a significant safety hazard. Andrew Wykes of Estate
Gardening, which was the only bid received for all three options presented, discovered more
serious problems and he is here tonight to go over the options for repairs. This project was
included in the 2020-2021 Budget but not for a full replacement of the tile. She recommended
Option 3, with Estate Gardening, to remove damaged concrete and replace with smooth
concrete.
Mr. Wykes stated the current tiles are granite, have concrete as a subbase. Reusing
those tiles is vey costly as the mortar has to removed and chipping can occur. The concrete
subbase has cracked and collapsed causing the pavers to loosen up and cause a safety issue.
The proposals are to fix the tile areas however he believes this issue spreads throughout the
area surrounding the walls. He also noted that lighting will need to be addressed.
There was discussion about concrete vs. tile and which would be a better choice for
replacement, the lighting and electrical. A side note-bids from the trail repair project came in
