Horses and their people could call this place home
Planners have removed the hurdles to a $6.1 million Concord Ridge Equestrian Center, reports the Herald-Palladium.The Royalton Township development calls for a large indoor arena area plus stables for up to 46 horses on the 39-acre site on the west side of Michigan-139, south of Marquette Woods Road. The project also would have seven single-family houses and six upscale condominium units in three duplex buildings. The idea is for the homes to be sold to people who want to be close to their horses. Planners stipulated residential construction on the site must be single-family, and another is that any commercial activity on the site must be related to equestrian activities. Construction is expected to start in July.Excerpt:Trustee William Foust said the center will be "a very positive entity for our township."The center's 160- by 220-foot main building would be built along M-139, south of Marquette Woods Road. The center, which would employ five people, would have stalls for 44 horses, two dressage areas and a second-floor viewing area.For more details, read the rest of the story. Source: Herald-Palladium
