Ballinger Park waterfront in Mountlake Terrace to close for construction

MY EDMONDS NEWS Posted: June 29, 2021 Photo courtesy of Dean Wallace Photo, LLC Construction of the Ballinger Park Waterfront Project begins on Thursday, July 1 and Friday, July 2, closing specific areas of the waterfront area so the City of Mountlake Terrace can begin work on major park improvements. The waterfront will temporarily reopen July 3-5, for the holiday weekend, with the closure resuming on July 6 and continuing into September, the city said. The waterfront project will add a new fishing pier, boat dock, boat launch, and enhanced shoreline improvements. Project funding also covers the new restrooms at the boat launch as well as an accessible pathway from the Senior/Community Center to the boat launch area. Demolition of the existing fishing pier, boat ramp, and tire rip rap is another component of the work. The total project cost is nearly $1.5 million.

Lenawee County firefighters fundraising for memorial

The Daily Telegram ADRIAN  The tragic line-of-duty death of firefighter Joe Gallo in November has revived efforts by local firefighters to create a firefighters memorial similar to the police memorial at Oakwood Cemetery.  The fundraising effort is spearheaded by firefighter Jeff Betz, a member of the Adrian and Madison Township fire departments, along with Blissfield Township Fire Chief Dale Fruchey. Gallo was a part of the fire departments in Blissfield and Madison townships.  Betz said in an interview that efforts to establish a memorial were attempted in the past but all fizzled out for various reasons.  Betz, who served as a full-time firefighter with Adrian and Madison Township from 1979 until his retirement from full-time firefighting in 2016, had already studied line-of-duty deaths in the Adrian Fire Department for its 175th anniversary in 2016. This included making a plaque with their names and the firefighters’ last alarm.
