![]() ![]() Today, the majority of Pittsfield residents can rely on walking, biking, or taking transit to access recreational, job, cultural, historical, municipal, commercial, and entertainment destinations through multiple modes of transportation both within Pittsfield Township and to our adjoining municipalities of Ann Arbor, Saline and Ypsilanti. In the last decade, 2009-2019, Pittsfield Township has set the regional standard in installation of multi-modal amenities such as greenways, mid-block crossings, sidewalks, and transit.The PRG, on the east side of Pittsfield Township, connected thousands of area residents to the largest recreation park in Pittsfield (Lillie Park). We used these funds to install the first 10-feet wide multi-use pathway in Washtenaw County, the Platt Road Greenway, within a matter of months. In November 2008, about $1 million of grant funds were left unused and due to expire in December 2009, for the installation of a greenway.Since then, we have continued to work toward enhancing waste management operations including being the first in Washtenaw County, in 2019, to partner with the Washtenaw County Water Resources Commission to establish a county-wide regional waste management collaborative (WRRMA). In 2009, Pittsfield Township became the first community in Washtenaw County to provide single-stream recycling services to all its residential customers. ![]()
