I can't say it's the most exciting thing, but I'll take it as a sign that 127 construction is ending, which is a good thing. I'd bet the timing of their opening had at least a little to do with that. Looks nice, in that modern corporate franchise so…

Rant away, within reason of course. One thing I'll push a bit for posterity's sake: The war on drugs started long before The War on Drugs, so the only point I'll stand on is yes, both sides are very much to blame for not only the broader problems…

I don't know if I'd frame it as MSU carrying a burden so much as partnering with a neighbor for something that should be mutually beneficial. I don't really know how much MSU gains by adding another facility like this on-campus. Maybe slightly highe…

We're treading into dangerous waters. I'll bite. While there's definitely some things in the article I agree with. I think it's written in a particularly unjournalistic tone (I get it's an editorial) with exaggerations and statements that seem un…

Funny the way life goes like that sometime. It is disappointing, yet unsurprising, that Delta turned down the millage. I'm not sure how I'd argue to one of their residents that voting 'yes' would have been some great benefit, it really is a tough…

It's in the master plan to extend a shared use path down Old Lansing Rd east to the Waverly Pathway and to the future Carrier Creek Path to the west, so there is a plan there. I just don't see why Delta would make the Old Lansing route a priority ov…

Delta Township residents seem to very much want Delta connected to the Lansing River Trail system, and that's a stated priority of the Delta Parks folks. That being said, connecting Fulton and Anderson Parks doesn't really further that goal unless t…

Well, I like the concept of being open to selling such land given a good proposal for it, but I do hope this sale is turned down. I guess that's why we have the processes we do. Thanks for the planning commission update.

The draft parks master plan link appears fixed: https://content.civicplus.com/api/assets/7561d46b-8bdd-4928-a815-e99aa3e74046?cache=1800 Lots of promising stuff in the action plan, of interest to me are: - Connecting downtown's west bank Rivert…

Very nice!

I was not able to read that LSJ article so thanks for that. I'd be quite content seeing Jenison get a proper restoration, that would not be a bad outcome, although I had assumed that was in the cards eventually with or without a new arena. I do have…

I mean, everyone has opinions, I share mine candidly and encourage others to do so. If my concerns sway your opinion then great, if vice versa then also great, if we disagree then that's ok. I am never positive for the sake of being positive, I care…

I get that but I don't believe for one second that this company drew up these plans, which are on city-owned property no less, without conversations with someone representing the city. I doubt they did it without receiving some kind of nod from said…

I don't know what the solution is. It's good to get more people out on the trails and there's some people who physically couldn't use the trail without some sort of powered contraption, on the other hand should things capable of going 20+ mph withou…

Michigan Waterways Stewards are coordinating a lot of this and I've largely been happy with their efforts, there's a lot of opportunity to do more with Red Cedar Park and more than a few other spots along the River Trail.

Baron's really was an odd duck there. I was surprised they didn't sell those buildings for renovation during the pre-2008 recession mini boom that Lansing enjoyed, and am surprised at how those storefronts sit today. Just a little sign as to how …

I will take this opportunity to once again agree on the stupidity of the Michigan Ave bike lane situation. If just inconvenient and pointless that'd be annoying, but this set-up is truly dangerous and sets the stage for bad bike-car interactions at …

I filled it out. Anything to encourage more community-university-student engagement.

From the upcoming MSU Board of Trustees meeting: - Authorization to proceed on the $340m Engineering and Digital Innovation Center: This is a big project, bigger than the Student Wellness Center in size and budget, it'll be nice to see it get goi…
