Huge year ahead: the Weiss Street water main lining, Hancock/Hames reconstruction, Medical Diamond infrastructure at ~$14 million, and a state gas-tax increase boosting the road budget 33% now and 50% next year. Most projects are grant-funded, not city-funded.

The city cleared the first legal hurdle to borrow through Michigan's Drinking Water Revolving Fund for water main replacement and a new looped connection. Spending commitments approved tonight include $328,000 for Weiss Street project engineering and $45,800 for the fund application.
