Berkley Wants Your Say on Coolidge Highway's Potholed, Patched-Up Future

Coolidge Hwy. & 12 Mile Rd. — Approximate Complete Streets Intersection. Potholes, uneven pavement and a roadway design that officials say no longer quite works for anyone have put Coolidge Highway in downtown Berkley back on the table for a major rethink. The city is asking residents, business owners and daily commuters to help decide what comes next for the stretch between 11 Mile and 12 Mile roads, a corridor that carries drivers, cyclists and pedestrians through the heart of town.

DNR Shares Mining Concerns Near Watkins Lake State Park

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is raising serious concerns about a proposed gravel mine next to Watkins Lake State Park and County Preserve in Norvell Township. In a November fifth letter to township trustees, DNR Director Scott Bowen warned the proposed operation could damage the park’s wetlands, water quality, wildlife habitat and recreational experience. The proposed mine would cover a 625-acre site adjacent to the park and Watkins Lake, with mining and truck operations expected to continue for 20 years. The DNR also cites potential problems from dust, noise and increased truck traffic. The letter comes as Norvell Township considers whether to approve or deny the mining permit. The full letter is available at Irish Hills Concerned Citizens website.

El-Sayed's election victory was can't-miss history for this Detroiter

When retired Wayne County Judge Craig Strong says he is a “student of history,” the lifelong Detroiter is talking about history that he has absorbed, which goes well beyond the pages of history books. For example, on June 23, 1963, a 15-year-old Strong and his parents, the late Erman and Manila Geraldine Powers Strong, were among the 125,000 people that attended the Detroit March To Freedom that ended downtown at Cobo Hall, where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered a version of his “I Have A Dream” speech for the first time. Fast-forward to April 1994 and Strong could be found in South Africa serving as an observer for the United Nations during the election that would ultimately lead to Nelson Mandela being inaugurated as the country’s first Black president on May 10, 1994, after Mandela had spent 27 years in South African prisons during his fight against apartheid. And on the evening of Tuesday, November 3 — and into the early morning of Wednesday, Nov. 4 — Strong was on the scene for another major political event during an election night party held by Michigan Democrats at The Department at Hudson’s in downtown Detroit.
