Interview with Larry Pack, MD Grand Blanc resident
from Grand Blanc Watchdogs Hosted by Imagine Grand Blanc
Larry Pack is a member of a neighborhood that was targeted for a random zoning change from residential to commercial, so that one of the DDA developers could put an office plaza in the center of a quiet neighborhood of 10 acre lots off Baldwin road. He and his neighbors got 60 people to come out to the planning commission meeting to protest this - 60 people who live in other neighborhoods all along Baldwin road and don't like the way the township has been systematically downgrading that area. They were ignored. They circulated a petition to try and get the zoning change on the ballot but fell short. Zoning changes are supposed to be fightable. Neighbors are meant to have that right. Not in GB township. In GB township developer friends of the politicians and bureaucrats take precedence over residents. Always. Dr. Pack is an intelligent observer of GB politics and has seen GB through many dark years, including the infamous Zittel/Delaney administrations. He agrees with the Watchdogs that the current group is the worst we've ever seen.
