    Park concept presented to twp. officials

    May 15, 2013 - Representatives from Oakland County Parks and Recreation (OCPR) began making the rounds in Oxford last week with their presentation regarding a proposed concept to turn the majority of a 1,200-acre gravel mining operation into a multi-use adventure park.

    "Oakland County Parks and Recreation cannot go it alone on any sort of venture like this. We need to work with others," said County Parks Planning Supervisor Jon Noyes as he addressed the Oxford Township Board on May 8.

    "We (are proposing) a very comprehensive process of reaching out to the community. That's why we're here today – just to begin the dialogue. We look (forward to) a whole series of additional meetings (with) you and other groups, so we can get that feedback, host workshops and then actually (conduct tests regarding) some of the concerns that folks have."

    Noyes' presentation, which was also made to the township planning commission May 9 and village council May 14, introduced local officials to the ...

    CADILLAC — Wear and tear and safety have led to the Department of Natural Resources replacing bridges along the North Missaukee ORV Trail.

    The two bridge structures are located in northeastern Wexford County and span Chase Creek and Flowers Creek. It was determined that both structures were in need of replacement due to aging bridge components, which compromises safety. Both bridges are critical structures for the snowmobile program as well.

    Original Article: http://www.clarkstonnews.com/Article...rd-boards.html

    April 24, 2013 - Residents who wish to learn more about a proposal to transform the majority of a 1,200-acre gravel mining operation in Oxford Township into a "multi-use adventure park" will have several opportunities to do so over the next month.

    Representatives from the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission (OCPRC) are planning to address various government boards from the township, village and school district throughout May. (See below for the schedule of meetings.)

    Their purpose is to introduce local officials to the concept of possibly turning 860 acres of the Koenig Sand & Gravel property into a public park that provides opportunities for off-road vehicles (ORV), mountain biking, horseback riding, fishing, archery deer hunting, scuba diving and training, water recreation and watercraft, natural trails and wildlife viewing, and zip-line experiences.
