Thanks for pointing that out. I never think to check their opinion section, there were a few articles in there that I found interesting.

There's an LSJ article on the new Sparrow facility in Grand Ledge, there's no new details besides stating that it is expected to open in winter 2027. https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2024/10/17/um-sparrow-grand-ledge-health-ca…

I don't know, the last time CADL put up a millage for capitol improvements it failed. That was 2008 though and times are much different.

Regarding the new arena in Kalamazoo: First, I fundamentally disagree that Kalamazoo is better positioned to host events/conventions than Lansing. The Lansing area itself is larger, our local university is larger, we're better geographically positio…

I could not agree more. I was unaware that the tax was currently producing that much revenue much less where it was going. I'd like to see something like 70%-80% of the expanded revenue go to bonding out capital improvements. The higher rate would r…

City Pulse also has another article: https://www.lansingcitypulse.com/stories/cadl-pledges-to-keep-a-strong-downtown-presence-as-pressure-grows-to-stay-put,113221 None of the language used by CADL officials has been promising. What I see quoted i…

I still find it hard to believe that Gentilozzi would leave all the free money on the table and I'd be surprised if that money couldn't make financing the project relatively easy. It'd be nice to know what's going on, but there's a lot of projects h…

Good to hear that it's moving forward, I had been wondering about this. I'm still curious as to the cost/scale of it. It reminds of BWL's plans to move their operations to the GM sites on the west side that seems to have stalled.

It's revolting to see that satellite view cropped like that, it makes it impossible to ignore how horrible of a use of land it is. I honestly couldn't get behind a pole barn anywhere in front of the church, especially near the street, under any c…

A small update on EL's Evergreen properties, they have selected the firm to represent the property (Savills) and set an asking price, $4.435m, they make it clear that they do no necessarily expect to get that price. It's always seemed implied that t…

This is exactly the kind of little negative thing that I've seen too much of in this city in recent years, it's part of why I feel so torn on this city's future. If this kind of stuff is making to committee I can only imagine the other kinds of mist…

I agree. If they need more space, acquire the necessary land to build an addition on the south side of the building. If they have to close completely for a year or two for a full renovation then so be it. I'm not willing to vote for the likely $50+ …

CADL is apparently contemplating a move again: https://www.lansingcitypulse.com/stories/cadl-move-from-capital-avenue-location-under-active-consideration,111665 One concerning but potentially coincidental bit of info from the article mentions a …

You sure they totally killed it? It was only back in 2021 and I don't think the plans were intended to be immediate at the time. https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2021/05/05/emergent-biosolutions-eyes-dewitt-location-biopharm…

As far as I know its all operations from MLK and some scattered stuff from other sites. On that note... Apparently when they were adding on to the MLK lab recently they already were planning this new facility, the assumption/rumor among state emp…

Agreed on the nice design. To be fair NIowave is just doing particle accelerator work and Neogen only works with food pathogens afaik, this state lab will be working with infectious diseases, a bit of a different beast. That being said they are curr…
