SEMICON Europa takes place in Munich this week, according to its website. “Germany has been a critical partner in Michigan's economic success, with companies investing billions in our state, creating jobs and helping us lead the future of manufacturing and innovation," Whitmer said in a press release.

Sterling Heights Eyes Commuter Rail to Detroit as Old Tracks Get Torn Up Up North

Sterling Heights city leaders are exploring whether an existing freight rail corridor running through Sterling Heights and Warren could one day carry passengers again, linking Macomb County to downtown Detroit for the first time since commuter rail service in the region ended in 1983.

The most basic responsibility of government is to provide relief, not manufacture additional hardship. RELATED: Sheffield unveils reforms for Detroit Land Bank after years of criticism That principle should guide Detroit Mayor Mary Sheffield's newly announced reforms of the troubled Detroit Land Bank Authority, an institution whose operations have generated years of frustration among residents seeking to purchase vacant houses, acquire neighborhood lots and rehabilitate properties.
