Zoo’s Future in Voters’ Hands | Lansing News

from Lansing News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Ingham County voters face a pivotal August decision: renew funding for Potter Park Zoo, which covers nearly 70% of its daily operations. Without it, the zoo could fall under city control—unlikely to survive without the same level of support. Homeowners pay just $50/year for a $200K home, keeping the zoo running through 2032. Visitors overwhelmingly back the renewal, calling it vital for education, community spirit, and future scientists—proving this century-old institution means more than just animals, it’s a cornerstone of local life.
