The Plymouth Board of Works and Safety approved two requests during their meeting on August 12.

Patty Welch from St. Michael Catholic Church in Plymouth was on hand to request approval to close the alley between the school and playground on October 4 for the annual fall festival. Welch said they would like to close the alley from 1 to 11 p.m. The church school has gates on the alley for the closure and without much discussion, the Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety approved the request.

The second request was from the Plymouth Kilwinning Lodge for use of the fenced area under the city’s water tower at the end of Parkview Street near Pilgrim Manor. Each year during the Blueberry Festival on Labor Day weekend the lodge parks vehicles in the surrounding area and uses the fenced-in area to park their golf carts overnight for security reasons.

The Board of Public Works and Safety unanimously approved the request.
