Plymouth Township Fire Station No. 2 Vote Delayed

PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP, MI — A vote to reopen Plymouth Township’s Fire Station No. 2 has been delayed. Trustees delayed the vote Tuesday at the request of Northville Township, whom Plymouth Township officials have been negotiating a joint agreement with to reopen the station. The station sits on Schoolcraft Road just west of Haggerty Road.

"I don't think this is anything that is fatal to the agreement," Plymouth Township Supervisor Kurt Heise told a crowd of about 70 residents who attended Tuesday's board meeting, adding later, "It is still my intention to expedite this as quickly as possible."

Northville Township Manager Chip Snider said Wednesday that officials there haven't yet had time to fully discuss and review the proposed agreement, though he anticipates no serious snags. "It is still a go," he said, "and it appears to be an excellent opportunity."
