The Oakland County Sheriff’s Department investigated a road hazard on Bald Mountain Road on March 29.
According to an OCSD report, a deputy found debris including furniture, appliances, wood, metal, plastic and garbage scattered on the roadway on Bald Mountain from Roxbury to the Ajax Industries north property line. The debris appeared to have been pulled out of the woods and stacked in the road, creating a hazard.
The Road Commission for Oakland County said two days before it had moved the debris from the roadway to the side of the road, until it could be picked up. The road commission said the debris was re-stacked in the roadway and it believed the property owner was responsible because he’d done it before.
The road commission was sending a grater to move the debris to the side of the road temporarily until it had man power to come clean it up. It requested the OCSD have extra patrols in the area until it’s cleaned up.
