Jason and Shannon Steinebach, owners of lakefront property on Green Lake, filed a civil lawsuit in Allegan County Circuit Court against Leighton Township. The suit challenges the validity and selective enforcement of Ordinance No. 2025-12-11-RV, which regulates camping trailers and recreational vehicles on private property. The plaintiffs allege improper adoption, selective enforcement, and violations of the Open Meetings Act and Freedom of Information Act, along with First and Fourteenth Amendment claims. A preliminary injunction motion is pending, and a federal complaint is being prepared.
