The Orion Township board of trustees received and filed a notice from the Department of Environmental Quality at its Feb. 7 meeting, regarding requests to fill wetlands and to construct a deck between the Paint Creek Trail and a pond.
The first application asked to place 500 cubic yards of fill and culverts in the wetlands for the purpose of building a 360-foot driveway to access a single family residence on Maybee Road, west of Baldwin.
The second application was to construct an eight-foot wide by 200-feet long observation dock/deck between the Paint Creek Trail and a pond that runs parallel to the trail, near the northeast intersection of Kern and Clarkston Roads.
