What do YOU think? We REALLY want to know!

We are dedicated to serving the residents of Paradise Township and we are looking for new and better ways to serve you. We are gathering information to gauge interest in the following items:

• Paradise Township is interested in adding a second Clean Up Day to be held in the Fall (September or October). Do you think this is a good idea? Would you participate?
• We are also interested in publishing a second Newsletter in the Spring that would advertise community events that take place from April – June, a Township Annual Report, and other County, Township and Village information. Do you think this is a good idea? Would you like to see this happen?

Let us know what you think. PLEASE call, send us a letter or e-mail us at:

The Grand Vision is a citizen led land use and transportation study that will secure the future prosperity and quality of life in the region. It will serve as a blueprint for the community leaders and government officials charged with its implementation, and will drive the direction of growth for the region for decades to come.



Why is it different than other studies?

The Grand Vision is highly collaborative, regional, well funded, and a citizen-led initiative focused on implementation. Because of the unique and dynamic partnerships along with the full engagement of the community, this "Grand Vision" will not sit on a shelf.  The Grand Vision is a project that needs involvement from all parts of our community in Northwest Lower Michigan. To learn more about The Grand Vision and how you can get involved visit their web site at: www.thegrandvision.org
