A year and a half after a local nonprofit kicked off fundraising efforts to buy and preserve the site of a proposed RV resort, those 200-plus acres of bayfront land near Northport have finally changed hands.
Bill Rastetter, attorney for the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians (GTB), shares with The Ticker that the GTB and its partners at New Community Vision (NCV) have successfully taken over ownership of the land formerly earmarked for a development called Timber Shores. Rastetter says 188-plus acres of the land have been deeded “to the GTB Land Trust” and another 24 acres have been deeded to NCV, with both transfers recorded on December 26.
