| Right to Farm Act | |
| This notice is to inform prospective residents that the real property they
are about to build on is within close proximity of the property boundary
of a farm or farm operation. Generally accepted agricultural and
management practices may be utilized by the farm or farm operation and may
generate usual and ordinary noise, dust, odors, and other associated
conditions, and these practices are protected by the Michigan Right to
Farm Act. (Public Act 93 of 1981) |

| Northern Five | |
| Ray Township is one of the founding members of the Northern 5. The
Northern 5 Committee, which consists of Armada, Bruce, Lenox, Ray and
Richmond Townships, is strongly in support of the preservation of farmland
and open space within their jurisdictions as well as in the County as a
whole. Macomb County and particularly the Northern 5 Townships are
experiencing significant population increases as well as significant loss
of farmland, and exploring smart growth options is top priority for all of
the communities involved in the Northern 5. |

| Open Space Developments: | |
|
Open space developments allow and encourage alternative subdivision
designs, which preserve Ray Township’s character and environmentally
sensitive elements, while providing housing communities that are desired by the community and the general public.
