Catching Up

Now we all know that Michigan has some work to do to improve our economy. And the group Michigan Future has some ideas on how to get that done.....attract young professionals age 25-34. According to Crains, they'll soon be publishing a report showing how where there are clusters of this particular group, economic activity is occuring and communities are thriving. And not just in places like Phoenix, Atlanta or San Francisco, but right in our backyard in places like Madison, Minneapolis and Chicago. So if these bad weather, cold midwestern cities can get it done so can we! That's why its time for a new agenda, one that invests in our communities and allows them to provide the kinds of services and amenities that provide a high quality of life that will attract and retain businesses and residents alike.
