County panel approves district map
3/3/2010
A plan to reduce the number of county districts from 26 to 13 has been approved.
At its March 3 meeting, the Macomb County Apportionment Committee voted 4-1 in favor of a plan submitted by Democratic Vice Chairperson Michelle DeBeaussaert that redraws the district boundaries. A number of northern communities will merge into one district if the plan goes unchallenged in court.
The redrawing took place due to voters approving the Home Rule Charter in 2009, which reduces the number of county commissioners and creates the county executive position.

Bruce officials approve water contract
1/21/2010
The Bruce Township Board of Trustees have agreed upon a contract that will bring water to its industrial area.
At its Jan. 20 regular meeting, the board approved of a contract between it and Detroit Water and Sewerage to install a water main on 33 Mile Road. The contract was approved with a 3-1 vote, with Treasurer Deborah Obrecht dissenting. Trustee Mark Falker was absent.
The contract calls for a minimum usage of 175,000 gallons a year. Obrecht argued the township would pay for the usage if no water taps are sold. Clerk Susan Brockmann said there were already businesses interested in developing the area, including one that claimed it would use 4.5 million gallons a year.
