Central Middle School proposals
to be topic of meeting Nov. 4
Veteran’s memorial ceremony planned
Northville Township OK’s new budget
The future of Central Middle
School is the concern of a new
community group that will meet at
7 p.m. Nov. 4 at the PennTheatre in
downtownPlymouth.
The school will be closed at the
end of the 2014 school year when
construction on a new middle
school in Canton Township is
expected to be complete.
The group, called Plymouth Arts
and
Recreation
Complex
Committee (PARC) led by steering
committee members Don Soenen,
Bob Doroshewitz, Debra Madonna,
Kurt Olson, Mike Devine and Mike
Ager has already suggested using
the property for a number of activi-
ties including a performing arts
center, a senior citizens center and
a fitness center. Recently, steering
committee member Soenen told
the Plymouth Canton Board of
Education Finance Committee that
the plan to repurpose the property
would cost about $25 million. He
described the plan as one suggest-
ed implementation option for a
community-driven effort to develop
the asset.
The plan includes an 800-1200
seat performing arts center, an
aquatic park with a modernized
swimming pool, a gymnasium and
fitness center, locker rooms, a day-
time senior center, meeting rooms
and office space along with
upgrades to the athletic fields.
The Central Middle School
property, located on Main Street, is
already a factor in the City of
Plymouth recreation master plan,
according to members of the new
group. That plan states that “if in
the future, the facility is no longer
used as a school, the City of
Plymouth will actively look to see
that the site is maintained for
recreational use. The Central
Middle School Park Master Plan
study sets forth a park develop-
ment plan for maintaining and
enhancing the existing facilities in
order to accomplish this goal.”
Soenen told members of the
school district finance committee,
“The Plymouth community will
never again have an opportunity to
provide a facility like this in such a
prime location. It is imperative that
every effort is made to bring the
relevant parties together and to
reach an informed and delibera-
tive decision for the benefit of the
entire community.”
The meeting is open to the pub-
lic and Plymouth Mayor Dan
Dwyer will be the guest speaker
along with representatives from
several community groups. The
Penn Theatre is located across
fromKelloggPark.
The annual Veteran's Day
ceremony in Plymouth will be
hosted by American Legion
Post 391, Veterans of Foreign
Wars Post 6695 and Vietnam
Veterans of America Chapter
528.
The memorial ceremony is
planned for 11 a.m. Nov. 11 at
Veterans Memorial Park in
front of Central Middle School
indowntownPlymouth.
All veterans are invited to
the ceremony.
Students from Central
Middle School will lead the
pledge of allegiance and sing
theThe Star SpangledBanner.
Following the presentation,
there will be a rifle salute and
the playing of Taps.
The tax rate paid by property
owners in Northville Township
will remain at 7.1074mills accord-
ing to a budget approved by mem-
bers of the board of trustees.
While general fund expendi-
tures will decrease overall by 9.8
percent in the $37 million budget
for 2014, public safety expense
will increase by 2.4 percent. The
increase included capital and
equipment purchases for both the
police and fire departments.
Decreases in expenses includ-
ed the elimination of about
$60,000 in federal unemployment
taxes for 2014, a savings of $50,000
in the general liability and prop-
erty insurance premiumand a cut
of about $26,000 in professional
fees.
At the current rates, property
taxes on a home valued at
$300,000 with a State Equalized
Value of $150,000, would include
about $750 for public safety
expenses, $102 for general operat-
ing of the local township services
and an overall total of $1,066.11.
The budget was unanimously
approved by the members of the
board during the recent regular
meeting.
erty bordered by Napier, Five Mile,
Beck and Ridge roads still belonged
to theCity of Detroit.
A status conference took place
July 5 in the Wayne County Court
regarding the suit brought by attor-
neys for the plaintiff, the City of
Detroit with the co-defendants,
Plymouth Township and Wayne
County Treasurer Raymond
Wojtowicz,
In late August following the status
conference, the City of Detroit filed a
judicial order and administrative
closing due to the bankruptcy filing
in JudgeOxholm's court.
Nader said that at the time attor-
neys for Detroit prepared the
praecipe, and before filing onOct. 10,
he met with the Plymouth Township
officials, along with Cronin, to try to
resolve the title issue and avoid liti-
gation.
“I met with your supervisor, treas-
urer and clerk with Mr. Cronin.
Wayne County won't give us a deed,
Plymouth Township won't give us a
deed.”Nader said.
Nader noted that Detroit attorney
Timothy Becket filed an affidavit of
interest regarding the parcels and
had stated there was a problem with
the land title some time ago.
At the time the purchase agree-
ment was drafted by Plymouth
Township, Steve Mann served as a
township trustee, and an employee
of theMiller Canfield law firm.
In July 2011 the township board
members approved a resolution
“...To buy from the Office of the
Wayne County Treasurer, First Right
of Refusal for 2011 Foreclosure List,
Parcel No. 78 001 99 0001 000 for an
offeredprice of $287,679.85.”
At that time, Cronin openly ques-
tioned whether a super majority was
needed for the purchase of property
when trustees Mann and Mike Kelly
voted no. Treasurer Ron Edwards,
Trustee Kay Arnold, Trustee Ron
Doroshewiz and Reaume carried the
motion.
Late in August 2011, after recon-
vening from a closed session of a
Board of TrusteesMeeting, to discuss
“Purchase of Real Property,” the
board emerged with an Installment
Purchase Agreement, drafted by
Miller Canfield, on their letterhead,
to purchase the subject prison prop-
erty for a revised amount of $606,150,
described only as, “Foreclosed prop-
erty.” Within minutes all board mem-
bers, with the exception of Mann,
approved the resolution.
Mann was granted permission for
an abstention on voting on the install-
ment purchase agreement at his
request, to “Avoid the appearance of
impropriety.” because, as he said, he
“worked forMiller-Canfield.”
Nader said he wasn't concerned
about the details right now, said after
the court appearance last week, “We
(City of Detroit) want our land back.
We want our 190 acres back, and
we're not backing down. Case law in
Michigan states you can't foreclose
onpublic land.”
“They just want us to sit down and
shut-up.”
