Governor Sigler Eyes New Taxes to Avert $83 Million Deficit
Politely urging mayors and school officials to relinquish their added sales tax funds, Governor Sigler proposes two paths to close an $83 million gap. He could push the legislature to reinsert the sales tax amendment for a two option April vote or see cities and scholars press for new taxes, while he opposes new taxes himself.

Milk price cut in Detroit Market stabilizes dairy market
National downtrend in dairy prices leads to a wholesale Class I milk cut in the Detroit Market from 5.00 to 4.71 per hundredweight effective February 1. Howard F. Simmons of the Michigan Milk Producers Association says the move should stabilize retail milk prices and curb consumer confusion. Butter and cheese prices also fell in January, influencing fluid milk costs, with further drops in Chicago and nearby markets impacting Michigan. The shift is expected to boost fluid milk demand and steady dairy business nationwide.
