LAKETOWN TWP., MI (92 7 WHTC, Nov. 13, 2026) – For the second time in as many years, a moratorium has been placed in a Lakeshore community.
On Wednesday, the Laketown Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved a recommendation by the municipality’s planning commission to “pause” new planned unit developments in order to update current ordinances.
The moratorium is through August 31st, but as township Treasurer Jim Johnson agreed to, the board would like the planners to have their recommendations ready by the end of June.
The Laketown Township Board instituted a moratorium last year on short-term rental applications until new rules were established for STR. Work on that has held up efforts to reform the municipality’s PUD guidelines.
