I Hope This Does Set A Precedent - with guest Alan Fox

During the November 10, 2025 council meetings residents from Lansing with a spectrum of housing challenges spoke to council - people fighting to stay alive in an outdoor encampment the city is currently litigating, a woman working to complete her renovation vision on a historic home the city had issued a “make safe or demolish” order against, and emerging developers asking the city to aid in the process of getting local and state tax breaks to make their projects less expensive. Our guest Alan Fox currently serves as the Ingham County Treasurer.  He served as Chief Deputy Treasurer for 4-1/2 years before he was appointed Treasurer in April, 2022.  He has since been elected in 2022 and 2024. Alan has lived in Lansing since 2015.  He grew up in East Lansing and was the first MSU student elected to the East Lansing City Council, in 1977.Find meeting issues maps and bingo results from the meetings on the podcast’s patreon page here:https://www.patreon.com/whatLansingCouncilHere is the Ingham county treasurer’s office web site:https://tr.ingham.org/departments_and_officials/treasurer/You can learn more about Lansing’s City Council here:https://www.lansingmi.gov/186/City-CouncilThe mayor’s road construction input form can be found here: https://www.lansingmi.gov/1359/Road-Construction-Input
