Edward J. Mikula of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources cites strong outlooks from the Mississippi Flyway Council for abundant breeding, good nesting in prairie potholes, and favorable habitat across Michigan. He notes half of state ducks are harvested locally and liberal 1971 regulations may follow. Goose flocks also rise in the western UP and lower peninsula.

Commission mulls budget cuts and street plan for Clare
The Clare City Commission discussed trimming about 42000 from preliminary estimates to hold the 14 mill tax rate. Mayor Koch urged a city wide survey of street storm sewer and curb needs and suggested special assessments and bonding for curb work. Bill Schaeffer of the Clare Snowmobile Association urged action on a stricter ordinance and proposed a meeting with snowmobilers, while noting state law as a benchmark. The commission preferred awaiting state action over summer before pursuing local ordinance changes.
