Carl Creek Wetland Preserve Dedication

The dedication for Carl Creek Wetland Preserve is scheduled for Sunday. Ada Township purchased 34 acres of woods and wetlands along Alta Dale Avenue, south of M-21. The $300,400 purchase came out of the township's open space fund with about $102,250 in donations from residents. A conservation easement with the Land Conservancy of West Michigan has been placed on the property, which includes a tributary of the Grand River, to maintain the land in a natural state. The township eventually might consider installing a path along the south side of the property and a small parking area. The dedication is set for 3 p.m. at 155 Alta Dale Drive SE.
