Waterfront Park design moves forward with fishing dock and loop trail; city to meet with EGLE
Summary
Design edits to Waterfront Park add a fishing-dock/overlook and a figure‑8 loop trail; city commission authorized design north of the Penn and staff will meet with EGLE about wetland permitting this week, with a project agreement targeted for fall.
Derek presented design updates from the Avon Marsh team that incorporated commission feedback for Waterfront Park, including a fishing-dock/overlook on the channel connecting Reeds Lake to Fisk Lake and a split trail offering a figure‑8 loop to reach the overlook.
He said the city commission supported advancing design work north of the Penn and that staff will meet with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) regarding wetland permitting; Derek said the project is still on track for a project agreement this fall and for bids to be let later this year. The commission will see further Waterfront Park updates on future agendas.
