Muskegon–In mid-December, Muskegon County, Nugent Sand Company, and Cherette Group announce the County’s of the second phase of the Dune Harbor Park, expected to open on or about March 1.
A year ago, in December 2021, the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNTRF) recommended funding for Phase II of the project, known as the North Lake. With the completed transaction and per MNRTF grant requirements, the County has 90 days to open the park to the public.
The project is an opportunity to create a public park providing public access to inland lakes and Lake Michigan shoreline. The success of this project is attributed to the hard work and partnership between the County of Muskegon, the Land Conservancy of West Michigan, and Nugent Sand owners Robert Chandonnet and his daughters Suzette Colon and Deanna Chandonnet, who have provided over $8 million in match to the MNRTF grant allowing Phase I and now Phase II of the acquisition to be completed. Mr. Chandonnet requested the property be named “Dune Harbor Park” in memory of his late wife, Lynne.
Muskegon County is actively pursuing master planning grants to create sustainable and equitable uses for the new park.
A fund has been developed at the Community Foundation for Muskegon County to support projects at Dune Harbor Park. For information visit www.muskegonfoundation.org or call CFFMC at 231-724-4538.
