March 5th General Meeting
Our guest speaker was Michelle Peel, speaking on behalf of “Citizens for Local Choice.” This is a bi-partisan ballot initiative to give back zoning regulations of wind and solar operations to our local government. You may remember, last November the Michigan Legislature passed new laws that took away the local power to control these issues and gave it to the unelected Public Service Commission.
Also speaking was Pete “Top” Kirley, Director of Lapeer County Veteran Services. He provided an update on what his agency is doing for our Veterans.
