Highway bond plan lists gravel roads for Fair Haven township
Highway Commissioner August Altensen outlines gravel improvements for about 17 to 58 miles of township roads under a proposed $25,000 bond issue. If approved, all farms would gain an all weather road to the nearest hard road, with funds later used to fill remaining gaps. The list names many farm corners and roads, showing potential coverage and minimal tax impact over ten years.
