| Sports Complex be converted to the proposed 3.64 acre parcel of land located at M-57 and Linden Rd. | |||||||||||

| un-usable for sport activities. It has almost no recreational value and its conversion represents less | |||||||||||
| than .011% of the total area of the complex. This conversion will not affect the operation of the complex | |||||||||||

| value that the tower site. | |||||||||||
