From the Oakland Press:
County commissioners in south Oakland County have long complained of a lack of park development in the south.
Most county parks are large and in the less developed northern and western parts of the county.
"The reality is that the bulk of the taxpayers are in southeast Oakland County," said Commissioner Dave Woodward, D-Royal Oak.
"Most people realize that the large-acreage parks are going to be in the less-developed parts of the county, but not at the expense of not being creative and developing an urban park strategy in the existing developed areas," Woodward said. "It's a shining opportunity to provide quality parks services in an area that's more accessible than other areas."
