The Fosdick Road area
Fosdick Road runs through the countryside between Michigan Avenue and Bemis Road southeast of Saline, in the more open southern part of the county where developments sit among working agricultural land rather than among other subdivisions.
Rolling Hills County Park is in this area — 439 acres held by Washtenaw County, which places it in the most durable tier of protected open space: not a business that can close and be sold, and not dependent on any association continuing to fund it.
US-23 and I-94 are both within a reasonable run, which is much of the practical case for the position.
The openness is the appeal, and it carries one caution. Farmland is privately owned working land protected only by its owner's current use and whatever zoning and wetland rules apply, unless it is enrolled in a preservation program — which is a free question with a real answer.
Working farmland is also a working neighbor, which is worth being matter-of-fact about. Agricultural operations run early and late in season, involve large machinery on the roads, and produce dust, noise and odor at particular times of year. Michigan's right-to-farm provisions protect established agricultural practices from nuisance claims where they follow generally accepted practice, so a resident who moves next to a farm has limited recourse about the farm behaving like one. Visiting at harvest as well as in June is the sensible response.
