Page 3 of 3 MINUTES LONG LAKE TOWNSHIP PLANNING COMMISSION LONG LAKE TOWNSHIP HALL 8870 NORTH LONG LAKE ROAD TRAVERSE CITY, MI 49685 TUESDAY, MAY 28, 2019 1. CALL TO ORDER: By Vice Chair Verschaeve at 6:01 pm. 2. ROLL CALL: Board members present were Figura, Craves, Mehney, Doren, Witkop and Verschaeve. Also, present were Leslie Sickterman, Township Planner, Kim Smith, Zoning Administrator and Ronda Robinson, Recording Secretary. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Was recited. 3. APPROVAL OF AGENDA: Motion by Mehney and support by Craves to approve the agenda, as presented. Carried. 4. CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT: Doren requested more information, in the future, regarding the applicants, if they are Corporations, so that the Board members can feel confident that they don’t have a conflict. 5. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Motion by Doren and support by Craves to approve the Minutes of the meeting held on April 23, 2019, as written. Carried. 6. BRIEF PUBLIC COMMENT: None. 7. PUBLIC HEARING: ZOA 05-19-01 – A PROPOSAL TO AMEND ZONING ORDINANCE #109, AS FOLLOWS: AMEND SECTION 20.2 LAND USE PERMITS TO REQUIRE SUBMITTAL OF A SITE REPORT DURING CONSTRUCTION TO DEMONSTRATE THAT SETBACKS ARE MET; AND AMEND SECTION 23.6 APPEAL PROCEDURE TO REQUIRE APPLICANTS SEEKING A DIMENSIONAL VARIANCE TO SUBMIT A CERTIFIED SURVEY DRAWING WITH THEIR APPLICATION. A. REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION BY PLANNER: Sickterman explained that about a year ago the Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on this same topic. Before it was passed onto the Township Board staff decided to take another look at it. Staff did some more research, talked to surveyors and made a few changes to the draft. With the current proposal if a landowner applies for a land use permit and it is clear that they proposed build is far from all setbacks they will not be required to have a setback inspection. If the construction is within 20 feet of any setback line a site report would be required certifying that all setbacks are met. The Zoning Administrator can require an inspection if there are unusual circumstances. Also, anyone coming before the Zoning Board of Appeal must submit a certified survey of the property. DRAFT MINUTES LONG LAKE TOWNSHIP PLANNING COMMISSION TUESDAY, MAY 28, 2019 B. QUESTION/DISCUSSION BY COMMISSIONERS: Doren thinks that a complete survey for all ZBA cases isn’t necessary. He would prefer to leave it to the discretion of the Zoning Administrator to decide what level of survey is needed. Craves, member of the ZBA, stated that a certified survey is needed for all ZBA cases, especially lakefront lots. Sickterman said most ZBA cases are complicated and it would be rare to not need a survey to make an informed decision. Smith explained that most ZBA cases are on small lakefront lots or properties with unusual situations. A survey is beneficial to the owners also to make sure they are asking for a large enough variance. Verschaeve said leaving the decision to the Zoning Administrator is a lot to ask.

  • Long Lake: Oakland County, Status of the Fishery
    Michigan Dept. of Natural Resources 2020-303 Status of the Fishery Resource Report Page 1 Long Lake Oakland County, T03/R08E/35,36: T02N/R08E/01,02 Huron River, 2019 John M. Bauman, Fisheries Biologist Environment Location Long Lake is a 156-acre natural lake located in central Oakland County (Figure 1), in the northeast corner of Commerce Township, approximately 3.7 miles south of M-59. In Oakland County, Long Lake resides northwest of Farmington Hills and north of Novi approximately nine miles north of I-96. Geology and geography Located within the Coldwater Shale bedrock formation (MDNR 2001), Long Lake's land cover is dominated by urban development (79.8%), forest (11.4%), and wetlands (3.8%). Surrounding surficial geology consists mostly (99.7%) of course textured materials mixed with Spinks, Oakville and Urban loamy sands (USDA 2017). Course textured substrate materials, similar to those found in Long Lake, are commonly associated with acceptable levels of groundwater input. Watershed description Long Lake exists in the upper reaches of the Huron River watershed and receives intermittent flow from Cooley Lake via a culvert under Cooley Lake Road. Historically, Long Lake was likely connected through wetlands to Hayes Creek, which currently serves as a tributary to the Huron River, however construction of a water level control structure has reduced this connectivity. Chemical and physical characteristics On 12 August 2019, a limnological survey was conducted at the central-east basin of the lake to estimate transparency (Secchi depth) as well as measure temperature (°F), pH, conductivity (mS/cm), and dissolved oxygen (mg/L).

  • Yesteryear to the Present - a Brief Glimpse Through Time Maureen Mallory Hearn and Jim Laberge
    LONG LAKE Yesteryear to the Present - A Brief Glimpse through Time Maureen Mallory Hearn and Jim LaBerge The history of Long Lake is sprinkled with rich stories and experiences of Native Americans, pioneers, subsistence farmers, lumbermen, religious enthusiasts, merchants, civic leaders, mobsters, weekenders, seasonal vacationers and year-round retirees. Written documents, photographs, and narratives detail the economic and social impact that lumbering, recreation, and tourism has had on the growth and development of Long Lake and the village, and provide Photo Courtesy of Jim LaBerge a vivid picture of the people who trod the land and shaped Sodney Mucka Poosh, chief of the Chippewa tribe living around Dease and Long Lake. its future. Two hundred years ago, a pristine forest of white pine, red pine, cedar, oak, ash, maple, and beech covered the land now known as Iosco County. Fish were plentiful and wild game was abundant. In the 1800’s, as the national demand for wood grew, the commercial lumbering industry boomed in northern Michigan and pioneering families from down state, Ohio, New York, New England, and Canada came to the area to earn a living, put down roots, and rear families. A group of families, including the Barbers, Thayers, LaBerges, Shorts, Pratts, and Yosts, settled around Dease lakes in the 1880’s and engaged in lumbering and subsistence type farming. George Thayer and his son-in-law, Louis LaBerge, eventually moved their families to the west end of Long Lake and began settling the land. Thayer and LaBerge built small lumber camps and sawmills at different locations on the lake, including one east of the point on Martha Drive.
