Howell to Possibly Get New Ice Rink

Planners for the City of Howell and their Downtown Development Authority have been moving ahead in plans to build a new ice rink next to the Livingston County Courthouse.

The plan is still in development but the proposed rink would be 125 by 70 feet. It could possibly include a fabric roof supported by beams modeled after old train stations. The project would also include a building attached to the county Administration Building, which would house skate rentals and public bathrooms.

The rink will cost $750,000 to $1 million to build. Funding for the rink would come from the city, the DDA, state and federal grants as well as donations from private citizens.

The Howell City Council and DDA are seeking public comments on the plans, which can be e-mailed to marnold@downtownhowell.org or sent in writing to 207 N. Michigan Ave., Suite 100, Howell, MI 48843.
