HOUGHTON — Landowners who erected barricades on the former Soo Line railroad grade between Houghton and Chassell have been given another 14 days to remove the obstructions.
During a hearing Friday, Acting Houghton County Circuit Court Judge Charles Goodman denied the defendant’s request for a stay, which would have allowed them to keep the barricades up pending an appeal. He said if the barriers are not removed within 14 days, the Department of Natural Resources will be allowed to remove the barriers at the expense of the landowners or request that local law enforcement remove them
