Named after the two longest rivers within its boundaries, the Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority is a regional park agency consisting of 13 Metroparks encompassing approximately 25,000 acres of land within a five county area in southeast Michigan. Much credit can be given to Henry S. Curtis and Harlow O. Whittemore for making the Metroparks a reality. The 1937 vision for a park system proposed a series of parks connected by a long parkway extending from Lake St. Clair along the Clinton and Huron rivers to Lake Erie below the mouth of the Detroit River. Funding of the parks began in 1942 with a property tax levy, limited to one-quarter of one mill. The rate today has been adjusted to .2146 mills.

A Survey of Willow Metropark, Wayne County, Michigan Abstract There has been little ra chaeological research on prehistoric settlement patterns for Southeast Michigan with which to understand how humans interacted with their environments and landscapes. Based on James Krakker's hypotheses on agricultural settlements and limited-use prehistoric components (PCs) in Southeast Michigan, agricultural settlements should be associated with well-drained soil adjacent to arable soil suitable for cultivation, and they should be located within 1 km of a river while limited use PCs should be located further inland. This thesis uses survey data from the 20092012 Eastern Michigan University Archaeology Field School seasons to test Krakker's hypotheses in the Willow Metropark, Wayne County, Michigan. The results of this study indicate that agricultural settlements were associated with well-drained soils adjacent to arable soils and they were located within 1km of a river. However, limited-use PCs were not always located further inland. These results support Krakker's hypotheses on Late Woodland period settlements or camps but may suggest limited-use PCs were less influenced by landform and distance from the river.
