Several LGC board mbrs played key roles in the 2024 cmpn to regulate election finance in A2, arguing that "dark money" and "special interests" had too much pwer.

The next year: LGC illegally plowed its (charitably donated) reserves into a losing effort to stop the AADL's library project. #a2council

Only 14 years to the sesquicentennial. We need to have a big party.
Happy 136th birthday to a legendary Ypsilanti landmark, the Ypsi Water Tower!

The 9th and 10th largest Quercus bicolor (swamp white oak) in Michigan are located on the 1000 block of Pearl Street in Ypsilanti. At 178 and 171 inches in circumference, respectively I like to imagine these two trees are siblings who have watched each other grow over the years.
