Declaring the necessity and intention of appropriating a highway easement across a portion of the property owned by The Toledo Edison Company, located at 4576 River Road (rear) for the Anthony Wayne Trail Improvement Project (Detroit to Glendale); and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
