Title
Resolution to Accept the Right-of-Ways of Redland Ct., Hickory Pointe Dr., Woodhaven Ct., Indian Creek Cir. and the unnamed Service Drive between E. Stadium and Washtenaw Rd. and to dedicate them as Public Streets in the Act 51 Street System
Memorandum
This action will add Redland Court, Hickory Pointe Drive, Woodhaven Court, Indian Creek Circle, and the unnamed Service Drive between East Stadium and Washtenaw Road to the Act 51 Street System.
In order to receive Act 51 funding (gas tax funds that are collected by the state and then redistributed to respective municipalities based on a set formulas for the sole use of maintenance and repair of major and local streets), it is crucial that the City Street Administrator (Homayoon Pirooz) maintain up-to-date, accurate Street System Maps. To amend an Act 51 Street System Map, the state requires that administrators submit specific, detailed information and forms. One of the requisite amendment documents is a resolution adopted by the municipal governing body outlining and approving the requested changes/amendments.
Redland Court, Hickory Pointe Drive, Woodhaven Court, Indian Creek Circle and the unnamed Service Drive between East Stadium and Washtenaw Road are either new streets or have been extended since the last Act 51 Street System update.
Legal descriptions of the four street sections covered in this memorandum and the attached assessors plat for the service drive are attached.
