Huron Pines will assist Alabaster Township with an online public meeting to receive comments on the 145-acre parcel of Lake Huron property that has been purchased by Huron Pines and is to become an Alabaster Township park.

Huron Pines purchased the Lake Huron coastal property in December with the help of a short-term loan from The Conservation Fund. The long-term plan calls for Alabaster Township to assume ownership of this property in 2022. The property would become a township park with Huron Pines remaining a partner to support the care and stewardship of the land. To do this, Alabaster Township is considering a grant application to the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund. Before submitting this grant proposal, Alabaster Township is interested in hearing from the public about the potential future use of the property as a park, desired amenities, accessibility questions and general project feedback.

Comments may be submitted regarding the proposed plan during the online meeting March 8 at 5pm. Attend via the Zoom link here:
