If I was the citizen holding mineral rights to that land, I’d be suing the twp for damages.

Yeah. They talk about the rights of the people but they don’t mean individual people. They mean the collective.

Red-eyed “river trout” as we called ‘em on the Kalamazoo. Fun to catch but plain nasty to eat.

On ultra-light tackle, they fight like crazy!

Yo, crip:

Which formation are they headed for at 5K, bsg?
Antrim Shale?

There is a “productive” (syncline trap) limestone vein further West at about (IIRC) 7.5K, bsg (Scipio Trend) but that has been delineated completely.

An old girlfriend I almost married who lived in Manchester now lives about a mile from that intersection.

She complains on Facebook all the time about how the place has changed in the last 20 years.

I'm not really sure. The geology under Michigan is pretty complex.
