Oscoda county ORV ordinance

[silver]

Any one who rides in Oscoda county or would like to in the future.There is a meeting on the 12th of May 10 am county Annex building to decide the ORV policy of " open all roads " which would be grand.There are a lot of people against it and we could use as many people for it to show up at the meeting.If this is not possible please take the time to send an email to the county Commissioners. Getting this passed sure would make it easier in the future hold an Enduro or just enjoy th etrails we have .So take the time read the ordinance and send an email or better yet show up and be heard at the meeting.

I thought it was already voted on and passed, ready to go. Are they thinking of changing paragraph A of section 4, from"all county primary and county local roads" to something more limited?
Either way, I will send messages.

The orginal plan was just for 20 miles of routes to get into towns.Dennis Kauffman after talking with other commissinors from neighboring counties proposed a new ordinance to open all county roads like the others have.So the new plan gets voted on next Tuesday.It looks like we should win 3-2 but you never know depends on how many people opposing it show up or write emails to that affect.Thats why I need you guys to take a min. and send a supportive email so they realize it would benifit the county .Even if you don't ride here now someday you might so please send an email.Thanks Mike Lietzke
