Leelanau Township's Private Road Ordinance

Buying property on a private road in Leelanau Township? The township has a written ordinance for just that. You’ll find the Private Road Ordinance in the township’s official document center, right alongside the rules for short-term rentals, nuisance, and parks.

Whose job it is to grade, plow, and pay for that gravel two-track is usually spelled out right there in the ordinance — the kind of thing easy to skip past until the first hard winter on it.
