Lmichigan 40 Report post Posted March 23, 2007 I really like to see these partnerships. But, even more importantly, in these tough economic times, regionalism isn't some fuzzy, warm idea, it's a necessity: Communities band together on Michigan Avenue project Leaders from East Lansing, Lansing and Lansing Township today announced plans to create a regional authority to promote and develop the Michigan Avenue corridor. The authority, to be formed in the next two to three months under the state's Corridor Improvement Act of 2005, could take on projects to improve the strip's sidewalks, streets, lighting and other public infrastructure, officials said. The authority also could market the area. http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/apps/pb...D=2007703220402 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
