Inkster authorizes Wayne County and MDOT right-of-way permit applications
Summary
Council authorized the DPS director to apply for annual right-of-way permits from Wayne County and the Michigan Department of Transportation to allow temporary local and state road closures and work within trunkline rights-of-way; resolutions to accompany both applications were approved by voice vote.
The Inkster City Council on Dec. 15 authorized the city’s Department of Public Services director to file annual permit applications with Wayne County and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) to occupy right-of-way and, where necessary, temporarily close local and county roads.
Speaker 5 told the council the applications are required to allow temporary closure of certain local and county roads and to work within state trunkline rights-of-way, and asked the council to adopt accompanying resolutions to meet application requirements. The motions to authorize the applications and submit the resolutions to the respective agencies were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The Wayne County authorization covers annual occupancy permits and temporary road closures under the county’s general and special permit conditions; the MDOT item covers required permits for work within state trunkline right-of-way. The meeting record does not specify which specific streets or projects will use the permits or whether any public-notice steps were required as part of the application.
Action taken: council adopted resolutions authorizing permit applications to Wayne County and MDOT and approved sending those resolutions as part of the applications.
