Kalkaska County moving forward with Annex sale; Recycle property testing, possible split under review

Oct 8, 2025

The county reported the Annex building emptied and a closing scheduled next week; Phase 2 testing for the Recycle property will be completed and the county will keep the Recycle property on the market for six months while considering property-split options and ARPA fund allocations.

The full story

County Administrator/CFO Patrick Whiteford told commissioners the Annex property has been cleared and Phase 2 environmental testing will be completed; closing on the Annex sale is scheduled for the following week. Realtor Bonnie Garrett updated the board that the sale of the Recycle parcel could require the buyer to pay for additional testing after Phase 2 and that title work signatures will be handled by the chair and county administration.
