Van Buren trustees may join suit against county
Council OK’s new city dog park
Van Buren Township will join
the lawsuit filed by several
downriver communities against
Wayne County regarding the use
of sewer funds.
Members of the township
board of trustees voted to join
the suit at a July 15 meeting,
after postponing the vote from
July 1 in an effort to obtain more
information regarding the mat-
ter. The issue is the transfer of
sewer funds into the general
fund budget by the county, which
the customer communities claim
is illegal and a misuse of the
funds.
Assistant Wayne County
Executive Alan Helmkamp met
with members of the administra-
tion and department heads last
month. Helmkamp told those in
attendance that the county used
funds in the enterprise fund of
the sewer system budget and
that those funds have now been
restored and interest paid on the
money. Helmkamp said the
action was legal and done with
the advice and review of legal
counsel to ensure there were no
improprieties. Township Clerk
Leon Wright, Treasurer Sharry
Budd, Executive Assistant to the
Supervisor Karen LaMothe,
Trustee Jeff Jahr and DPW
Director James Taylor were
present at themeeting.
Taylor recommended joining
the lawsuit and suggested the
proposed motion to the board
members lastmonth.
“The board must understand
that I'm recommending approv-
ing the resolution,” Taylor said.
“But it won't be filed tomorrow
or the next day. Our attorney rec-
ommended this. We really have
to go forward to protect the inter-
ests of VanBurenTownship.”
“We have to protect our inter-
est in that (sewer) system,” said
Supervisor LindaCombs.
Jahr said he objects to the
county shifting the general fund
deficit back to customers of the
sewerage system.
Taylor said that five or six of
the affected 13 communities
have voted to join lawsuit. Some,
he said, have not yet met to dis-
cuss the issue.
“Almost half are in favor of
the suit,” Taylor said.
“I wanted to hear both sides,”
Wright said. “Litigation is
absolutely the last resort. If the
bargaining fails, we authorize
our attorney to do that (file suit).”
“No one wants litigation,”
saidTrusteeReggieMiller.
Meetings to discuss the issue
are expected to continue this
month throughout the affected
communities.
Since it was closed following
a failed millage vote, Merriman
Park inRomulus has figurative-
ly gone to the dogs.
Under a plan discussed by
the Romulus City Council
members in a study session
Monday night, the park would
re-open in as little as four
weeks and go, literally, to the
dogs.
The city council unanimous-
ly approved a plan to re-open
the park and convert about half
of it into a dog park, the first of
its kind in the city.
“This is a beautiful idea,”
said City Councilman William
Wadsworth. “I'm thrilled with
it.”
The city has been working
diligently to re-open parks this
year, with Elmer Johnson and
Eugenio Fernandez Park being
recently brought back into serv-
ice. The concept of a dog park
came up during the community
visioning sessions that took
place throughout the summer,
said Bob Dickerson, Mayor
LeroyBurcroff's chief of staff.
The plan would be to essen-
tially split Merriman Park,
which opened in 1973 and is off
Colbert Street near Merriman
Road, in two. The northern por-
tion, where existing playscapes
and swing sets sit neglected
and overgrown with weeds and
tall grass, would be kept for a
'people portion.' The southern
half, where an old baseball
field is located, would be con-
verted to a fenced in dog park,
with areas set aside for large
and small dogs. There would
also be hoops, ramps and tun-
nels for the dogs to jump
through, climb or run through.
A small parking lot would be
developed as part of the plan.
“We think it's a pretty good
plan,” saidBurcroff.
Dickerson said the existing
playground equipment would
be kept and cleanedup.
“It's actually in pretty good
shape,” he said. “The plan is to
keep all that historic equip-
ment, but clean it up and fix it
up.”
He said the entire plan,
including the fencing, lot,
clean-up and new dog equip-
ment would cost about $99,000,
but could be completedwithout
using additional tax revenue.
That's because the city settled a
delinquent tax bill with Wayne
County earlier this year, paying
the county a reduced amount of
the debt; one of the stipulations
of that lower payment was that
the city set aside some of the
money saved and earmark it
toward parks and recreation
services. Dickerson said the
city would use about $85,000
from that fund and match it
with a $15,000 grant from the
county to pay for the project.
Council members unani-
mously approved the plan and
entered into a contract with the
Brickman landscape manage-
ment company. Dickerson said
the park could be open in as lit-
tle as four to sixweeks.
Other park improvements
are on the way, as well. He said
the old archery range at Elmer
Johnson Park will be open as
soon as Sept. 2.
The city also entered into an
agreement with the Romulus
school district to lease Mt.
Pleasant Park, which is
attached to Mt. Pleasant
Elementary School, for $1.
“Everywhere I go, people
say to me: 'We're so proud that
are parks are opening back
up',” said Council President
John Barden. “You can see the
happiness on their faces.”
Voters will be asked
to change city charter
Voters in Romulus will be
asked to change the city char-
ter allowing bids for material
purchases by the city to be pub-
lished electronically, rather
than innewspapers.
The ballot question will ask
voters to approve an amend-
ment to Chapter XIII, Section
13.1 Limitation and Section
13.2 for Material purchases in
theRomulus City Charter.
Voters will be asked to
approve language that will
allow the city to contract for the
performance of any new public
improvement or performing
public work without the cur-
rently required advertisement
for sealed proposals in a paper
of circulationwith in the city.
Voters will be asked to vote
yes or no on the question of
allowing the contracts without
the publishing of the request
for bids.
The second question will
ask voters to approve a change
that will allow the city to pur-
chase any material, tools or
apparatus without an adver-
tisement for sealed proposals
in a paper of circulation within
the city.
Bids would be placed in
alternative mediums such as
electronic proposals and
extendable or cooperative bids
from other government agen-
cies, according to the resolu-
tion which was approved by a
unanimous vote of the mem-
bers of the city council at the
regularmeeting July 14.
The amendment to the char-
ter is necessary, according to
the resolution, to allow the city
to take advantage of the other
methods of advertising for the
purchases.
The amendment to
the charter is
necessary, according
to the resolution...
