The VILLAGE and TOWNSHIP find it in their long-term interest to cooperate on planning and zoning issues, and a means of achieving this goal is to jointly plan for land use and to jointly exercise certain zoning powers. As a result, both entities desire to enter into an agreement to establish a joint planning commission pursuant to Public Act 226 of 2003, which shall be referred to as the "Mayville Area Planning Commission". The jurisdictional area of the Mayville Area Planning Commission shall be corporate limits of the Village of Mayville, Tuscola County, Michigan, and the corporate limits of Fremont Township, Tuscola County, Michigan.

The Village of Mayville approves the establishment of a joint planning commission pursuant to Public Act 226 of 2003, as amended, and shall enter into and adhere to the Agreement Establishing the Mayville Area Planning Commission between the Village of Mayville and Fremont Township regarding the formation, composition, and operation of the Mayville Area Planning Commission.

If any clause, sentence, paragraph, or part of this ordinance shall for any reason be finally adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder of this ordinance but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment is rendered.

All ordinances or parts of ordinances of the Village of Mayville inconsistent herewith are hereby repealed so far as they may be inconsistent with the provisions of this Ordinance. Secs. 2-125—2-140. - Reserved. [6]
