Butt Birthmarks - with guest Joanne Galloway

from What Lansing Council Hosted by Jill Dombrowski

Over 150 people attended the August 24th Lansing city council meeting, with 60 giving public comments about a proposed letter urging the mayor to direct the police department to cancel their Flock camera contracts. The police chief made a surprise appearance to explain and defend the department’s use of the cameras. In a seven to one vote the letter was approved. Our special guest this episode is Joanne Galloway. Joanne is the founder and Executive Director of "Michigan Country", a non-profit focused on promoting the vote in rural areas in Michigan. She is a transplant to the Lansing area from the Upper Peninsula where she managed a farm and advocated for better representation of rural issues at a statewide level. **********CORRECTION****The noise permit vote was 5 to 3 as I reported, but this particular vote needed 6 to pass, so actually no Saturday work for the combined sewer overflow project on the westside.
