On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 12, 2010
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED. The parties shall
address: (1) whether plaintiffs’ claims are ripe for adjudication, and (2) whether
Washtenaw County Health Dep’t v T&M Chevrolet, Inc, 406 Mich 518 (1979), was
correctly decided and, if so, whether it requires the defendant City of Cadillac to continue
to allow the plaintiff townships to utilize the City’s extended wastewater treatment
facility for sewage transportation and treatment services beyond the May 12, 2017
termination dates of the 1977 and 1980 contracts between the City and Wexford County,
and if so, the duration of that requirement.
The Michigan Townships Association’s motion for leave to file brief amicus
curiae is GRANTED. Other persons or groups interested in the determination of the
2
issues presented in this case may move the Court for permission to file briefs amicus
curiae.

I concur in the order granting leave to appeal. However, I would welcome
