Pellston council adopts sidewalk plan to preserve Act 51 funding
Summary
The Village of Pellston adopted a resolution to submit a plan to the State of Michigan to install at least 650 linear feet (about 2,600 sq ft) of sidewalks by April 2028 (with possible early work in May 2025) to maintain eligibility for Act 51 funding; the estimated cost is $19,500+.
On a motion by Jane Ann Rose, seconded by Mark Givens, the Village of Pellston council adopted a resolution directing the village to submit to the State of Michigan a plan to install a minimum of 650 linear feet of sidewalk (5 feet wide) — roughly 2,600 square feet — with an estimated cost of $19,500 or more. The resolution calls for planning and potential construction no later than April 2028 but allows for work as soon as May 2025 so the village will remain in compliance and continue to receive State Act 51 funding.
The council approved the resolution by a 6-0 vote. No project-specific design, exact route or funding source beyond the estimated cost was decided at the meeting; village officials indicated they plan to pursue the required submittal to the state to preserve funding eligibility.
