Fisher Mill prologue This book came about as a spin-off of Glen Arbor’s Bicentennial celebration. Gathering infor- mation about historical landmarks for county recognition, locating photos and relics for the mini- museum, tape recording the memories of senior citizens, we re-discovered a vivid past. Many younger members of the community were fasci- nated too. Glen Arbor Township never grew to the greatness of Ann Arbor, or to the fame of other “Glens” and “Harbors” in Michigan.

  • Chapter 3 Current Conditions
    CHAPTER 3 CURRENT CONDITIONS This chapter presents information on the characteristics of land, natural features and buildings in Glen Arbor Township. It is based in part on the General Characteristics section in the 1984 Plan, but contains updates and additional information. Land Overview Glen Arbor Township consists of a total area of land and inland lakes, rivers and streams of approximately 39 square miles (22,607 acres). Of this, South Manitou Island is 5,286 acres and rests about 6 miles from the closest mainland point and for most people is accessed by ferry from Leland. The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore accounts for 75 percent of the area, (and includes South Manitou Island) and Big and Little Glen Lakes another 17 percent. The privately owned land area of the Township amounts to only about 3,800 acres (almost six square miles). The characteristics that are most representative of the Township include the waterfronts of Glen Lake and Lake Michigan, the Sleeping Bear Dunes, the Crystal River, high hills and steep hillsides and the extensive tree vegetation. These natural features have influenced the major land use patterns in the Township. Residential development is most evident around the Glen Lakes, Fisher Lakes, Lake Michigan, and on high hills, while Glen Arbor village, the Homestead and the Leelanau School are the only concentrations of development. As elsewhere, residential development is attracted to the waterfront for the visual beauty, recreation and serenity associated with it. Glen Arbor Township Future Land Use Plan March 2013 3-1 Land Use by Property Class Map 3-1 show land use by the classifications used by the Michigan MCL in 2012.

  • Glen Lake, Leelanau County, Michigan
    Michigan Dept. of Natural Resources and Environment 2010-100 Status of the Fishery Resource Report Page 1 Glen Lake Chain (Glen, Little Glen, Big Fisher, Little Fisher, and Tucker Lakes) Leelanau County (T29N, R14W/15W, Multiple Sections) Heather Seites, Mark Tonello, and Todd Kalish Environment The Glen Lake watershed is located in Leelanau County, Michigan, in the northwest Lower Peninsula. This watershed drains approximately 46 square miles of land or 29,721 acres (U'Ren et al. 2009). Within this watershed there are five distinct basins; Little Glen Lake (1,450 acres),Glen Lake (4,865 acres), Big Fisher Lake (42 acres), Little Fisher Lake, and Tucker Lake (15 acres) (Figure 1). For the purpose of this report, Big Fisher and Little Fisher Lakes will be collectively referred to as Fisher Lake. Additionally there are two small ponds in the watershed, Day Mill Pond and Brooks Lake. Day Mill Pond (7 acres) is located on the northwestern shore of Little Glen Lake and drains into the lake through a small stream, while Brooks Lake (10 acres) flows in through a small creek on the eastern shore of Glen Lake. The primary inlet to the Glen Lake system is Hatlem Creek, which flows into the southern end of Glen Lake near the intersection of County Roads 616 and 675. The primary outlet to the Glen Lake system is the Crystal River, which discharges into Sleeping Bear Bay on Lake Michigan. Little Glen Lake and Hatlem Creek both drain into Glen Lake, which itself drains into Big Fisher Lake then Little Fisher Lake before finally flowing into the Crystal River.
