Manistee Includes Recreation in Strategic Plan

Manistee outlines future goals, makes plans

On July 10 the Manistee City Council outlined some of its goals for the future and listened as members of the Manistee County Board of Commissioners and Little River Band of Ottawa Indians commented on those goals and plans to reach them.

"We're seeking input from our stakeholders, which tonight include the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians and the Manistee County Board of Commissioners," Mitch Deisch, Manistee city manager, said before the meeting.

The council has worked to develop a strategic plan for 2007, 2008 and 2009 with the goal of bringing prosperity to the community.

Specific goals pertaining to recreation are to make the city's beaches the cleanest on Lake Michigan and improve access to the beaches, and to establish a countywide recreation association.

A suggestion came from the floor that it would be nice if the city could buy Man-Made Lake and improve access there, and buy railroad property for recreational use.
