IT IS THEREFORE RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
• The Village Commission hereby petitions the Board of County Commissioners of Oakland
County to alter the boundary of the Village of Lake Angelus by excluding from the boundary the following
described property:
Part of the NE 1/4 of Section 12, T 3 N, R 9 E, Waterford Township ; Oakland County, Michigan,
described as beginning at point distant 5 01 0 48' 00" E 292.08•ft. and S 79 ° 07i. 00" E 234.87
Ft. and S 300 21 20" W 191:39 ft: and S 000 42' 20" E 838.81 ft, and N 88 ° 29' 30' E 286.19

150 ff. to point of beginning. Containing 0,13 acres more or less.
2. The reasons for this petition are as follows:
A. The above described property is part of a larger parcel.- of land in common ownership and
used in its entirety as a golf. course, known as the Silver Lake Golf Course.
B. All structures and the major area of the golf course are located in Waterford Township,
and subject to governmental regulation and control by the Township of Waterford, and it serves no
useful governmental purpose for the small portion of the golf course described above to be under th,e
separate jurisdiction of the Village of Lake Angelus.
C. It- would best serve the interest of orderly governmental control of the property if it
were entirely under the regulatory jurisdiction of the Township of Waterford.
D. Tax revenues from the property to the Village of Lake Angelus are currently less than
One Dollar per year, and the inclusion of the property within the Village under present circumstances
is an inconvenience to both the taxpayers and the taxing authorities.

petition pursuant to this resolution ta the Board of County Commissioners of Oakland County and to
give notice thereof as required by statute and to take such other and further action as may be

which was sold by the Township to its present private owners.
B. The present private owners desire to make the described property together with the
contiguous property lying outsTde of the Village boundary available for residential development. ,
C. The orderly development of the aforesaid property requires that it be subject to the .
regulatory control of a single unit of government, and it would serve no useful purpose for a part of
Commissioners Minutes Continued. February 15, 1973 37
the property to be regulated by the Township of Waterford and a part by the Village of Lake Angelus.
C. The greater part of the property is located outside of the Village boundary and the
major part of any construction on the property would be outside of the Village boundary, and it would

regulatory jurisdiction of the Township of Waterford.
