How To Deal With Accumulated Junk Problems

Trash, or junk left on the landscape is one of the major issues identified by local government officials in northern Michigan. It is also one of the easier problems to solve. This publication presents a five-activity process a local government can undertake to help reduce the problems associated with accumulated junk. The pamphlet also includes sample zoning amendments and a sample junk ordinance for consideration. This has been updated to reflect P.A. 110 of 2006, as amended.
