Resident Frustrated Over Ice Fishermen Parking
A winter parking dispute is stirring frustration in Ira Township. A homeowner near Meldrum Road and Dixie Highway says ice fishermen using a nearby lot have brought traffic, litter, and safety worries to his doorstep. He wants the township or property owner to block access before someone gets hurt. But other neighbors say the crowds don’t bother them. The lot’s owners say they’re fine with ice fishermen parking there as long as visitors stay respectful—and so far, police say there’s been no trouble.
