This is from Plainfield Township about the latest development in the area:

On a divided vote and with much reservation, the Township Board passed a site condominium plan for The Cove at Dean Lake, formally referred to as Sieber’s Cove located at 2693 Four Mile Road NE.

The developer modified its initial request, scaling back from 12 units to eight and eliminating the common area boardwalk and dock space for multiple boats. Instead, all units will have 50 feet of individual lake frontage each with their own dock.

While the Board was not excited about the revised plan, the proposal met all the requirements of the zoning ordinance; therefore, there was no legally defensible reason for denying the project.

The developer indicated construction for The Cove at Dean Lake would begin this summer.
