MSU board approves five-year capital plan, large animal teaching hospital project

The Michigan State University Board of Trustees approved the submission of the five-year capital plan to the state of Michigan's budget office Friday. The five year plan is a requirement of the state's capital outlay process, which is to be approved annually by the board. The university is allowed to request state funding for a capital outlay project, an investment plan to upgrade or build long-term physical, and tangible assets. For the fiscal year 2028, the capital outlay project constitutes the construction of a new College of Veterinary Medicine large animal teaching hospital. Large animal teaching hospital While state funding is not guaranteed, the submission approval authorizes the university to submit a funding request to the state for the hospital. The construction is estimated to cost $290 million, according to the agenda item. As the state's sole veterinary college, the new hospital would help modernize MSU's veterinary facilities and address a shortage of large animal veterinarians.

'Out of our wheelhouse' Howell remains unsure about sheep keeping

Howell is considering allowing residents to keep sheep, but officials are divided over whether livestock truly belongs within city boundaries. Community Development Administrator Crystal Simmons presented the idea to Howell City Council on Sept. 14. The municipality doesn't currently allow residents to “keep, maintain or confine” sheep. Simmons said an ordinance allowing residents to keep sheep could include provisions similar to those for chickens. Potential restrictions included a maximum of two sheep, a ten-foot setback from side and rear yards, a forty-foot setback from residential structures on adjacent properties, a permit process requiring a neighbor’s consent and an administrative process to revoke permits for violations. Councilmembers discussed a draft ordinance that would allow two sheep per acre of land Oct. 26. Mayor Nikolas Hertrich said the proposal wasn’t quite what he envisioned, since the acreage requirement would disqualify most properties in Howell. More: Could residents soon be allowed to keep sheep in the City of Howell? He then suggested special consideration for miniature sheep, which require less space. Councilmembers Jacob Schlittler and Michael Gaitan-Flores remained unsure. “We live in the city,” Schlittler said. “We don’t necessarily have all the benefits (rural communities) have, but they can’t have the benefits we
