Committee warns Peninsula Drive dredging could cost millions; asks for engineering estimate and EGLE guidance
Committee members said Peninsula Drive could require roughly $3 million to $4 million of dredging depending on cubic-yard pricing and asked staff to obtain engineering estimates (estimated $30k–$250k) and EGLE permitting guidance before committing funds.
