Neighbors in Delhi Township tell me they’ve watched this road here deteriorate year after year.
Richard Coe says they’ve loved living in Holt, but over time, the streets leading to his home have become increasingly rundown.
“My wife Cindy and I moved in here 24 years ago. It’s just unfortunately been neglected and degraded every year.”
The neighborhood has become more and more frustrated by the worsening road conditions.
“I’d say this is probably one of the worst areas here because there’s just no pavement here,” said neighbor Jeff Dymond.
After more than a decade of reaching out to Delhi Township and Ingham County, Coe says he was told by both that it’s up to the residents to petition for repairs. The Ingham County Road Department says that residents must file a petition with two-thirds support, according to documents.
