Here’s your April 28th committee of the whole review: Council heard budget presentations from three departments and one public commentor demanded action to reduce speeding along S MLK Jr Blvd. There was also one sneeze and two jokes!

Our guest is Sophia Saliby, Sophia works at our local East Lansing public media station WKAR where she produces and hosts All Things Considered. She’s covered many stories we’ve heard about at council lately including the transfer of the Ultium battery plant from GM to LG Energy and the old Eastern High school building demolition.
