MERIDIAN TOWNSHIP - A new vegetation management project is beginning this month along the Meridian transmission corridor, north of Jolly Road.

ITC Holdings Corporation, through its subsidiary, Michigan electric transmission company, will be clearing any trees or other vegetation that could pose a safety threat.

ITC is offering what they call "right plant, right place" garden plans for property owners that highlight low growing plants that are safe and beautiful additions to the environment.

ITC aims to have the project complete by the end of September.
