Re: Forsyth Township Master Plan Public Review
The draft of the Forsyth Township Master Plan (2026-2031) is now available for public review. The draft Master Plan is the result of more than three years of work by the Planning Commission, Township Staff, and Central UP Planning and Development (CUPPAD).
The objective of the Master Plan is to guide local leaders in decision making and future development in the Township. The plan will guide public policy and priorities in Forsyth Township over the next five years. On December 18, 2025 the Planning Commission and the Township Board approved the draft for public review. A 63-day public review period will begin on January 5, ending on March 9, per the requirements of the Michigan Planning Enabling Act. The draft 2026 Master Plan with goals and strategies for the Township can be found at the Township’s website (https://forsythtownship.org/), CUPPAD’s website (https://cuppad.org/) and a printed copy will be available at the township offices located at 44 N Johnson Lake Rd, Gwinn, Michigan.
The Forsyth Township Planning Commission, Township Board, and CUPPAD will review all comments received, hold a public hearing at the close of the review period on March 9, and a vote on final approval will take place at this time.
