It took a little longer than some expected, but Northville Downs seems poised to have its relocation plans approved by Plymouth Township’s Board of Trustees, possibly as early as the end of June.
Late last week, Plymouth Township Supervisor Kurt Heise confirmed that the city’s Planning Commission had unanimously approved Northville Downs’ Planned Unit Development (PUD). This key hurdle was cleared after the horse track’s management had to amend its PUD a few times to satisfy concerns voiced by residents and commission members alike.
“There were probably about six or seven people in opposition. The arguments were based more on concerns about traffic, which we’ve addressed many different times,” Heise told MI Bets.
