Vice Chairman Mike Helman told property owner John Haack that the township wanted the 3864 150th St NW property returned to compliance with county ordinance standards and that no additional items from Mr. Haack’s Maple Lake property should be brought to the Silver Creek site.

The township provided Mr. Haack with a copy of the county ordinance that governs junk/structure compliance and encouraged him to complete as much cleanup as possible before the September meeting.
