Hi all,
I just signed up here - great site! Does anyone know if West Bloomfield is changing their ordinance. Appears to conflict with State law - but I'm not a lawyer. Their ordinance listed in Chapter 16, Article II, Section 16-32 lists restrictions for Firearms, "within the boundaries of a community park" - see below.
Code of Ordinances Township of West Bloomfield, Michigan
Chapter 16 PARKS AND RECREATION
ARTICLE II, Sec. 16-32. Firearm, bow-and-arrow and other weapons.
It shall be unlawful for any person other than a duly sworn government law enforcement official in the course of his or her official duty to discharge, possess and/or use a firearm, bow-and-arrow, crossbow, slingshot, pellet gun or air rifle, or other weapons within the boundaries of a community park. This provision shall not prohibit the possession and/or use of any such weapon named above within the boundaries of a community park if authorized for a specified duration as part of a recreational function where the possession and/or use of such weapon or weapons is part of a function which has been expressly authorized by the township board.
The Calumet Waterworks park? I was there this summer and never noticed it, if that's the one you're talking about. But then again, I usually don't look too hard for them, because they really hold no legal weight.Yooper, if you go west of C-L to Lake Sup, there is a park there that has an illegal ord sign. It's north-east of the state park.springerdave.
