Township's Golf Course Planner To Hold Community Open House

Plymouth Township’s Planning Consultant for Hilltop Golf Course will be holding a public information-gathering session on Thursday, July 26 at 7 p.m. at the Four-Seasons Pavilion at Township Park.

Paul Albanese, a partner at Albanese & Lutzke, a Plymouth-based golf course design and planning company, is encouraging residents and users of Hilltop Golf Course to share their thoughts on the course’s design, use, and potential integration of other non-golf features with the neighboring Township Park. Various ideas and concepts on the future design and appearance of Hilltop Golf Course will be reviewed and discussed.

“Paul is a great resource for Plymouth Township and brings a lifetime of experience in designing golf courses that are challenging and profitable,” said Supervisor Kurt Heise. “Hiring Paul’s firm was one of the recommendations of our all-volunteer Golf Course Study Committee which the Township formed earlier this year.”

“An added benefit to retaining Paul’s firm, is that he and his staff, in addition to golf design experience, have experience in the design of non-golf landscapes as well, Heise added.

Albanese’s firm was hired by the Township Board on June 12 under a $14,000 professional consulting contract. His Master Plan for the course is expected to come before the Board in September of this year.

Residents with questions, comments, or suggestions on the future of Hilltop Golf Course can call Supervisor Heise at 734-354-3201 or email him at
