The Michigan Department of Natural Resources says hundreds of land are sold in a series of auctions, ranging from an island of more than acres to a small area of hundreds of acres of land. The auction is hosted by the department every year, local news station FOX 2 Detroit reported.
“We have evaluated all other options, whether it is a better land exchange or not, before the plot reaches public auctions – the management tools the department has been using for decades.
The auction is on the Stigger Schedule for bidding.
