Michigan funding cuts left public health underprepared for COVID
The decade before the outbreak saw Detroit disband its health department and Lansing area officials repeatedly cut staff and services. By 2014 Detroit reopened its department in a parking office with a fraction of peers, while nationwide budgets for CDC and state local health departments shrank. Critics warn persistent underfunding weakened outbreak response and tracing capacity across Michigan and the United States.

Cloverleaf district eyes 38 to 42 million for new high school
Cloverleaf schools plan to fund remaining construction costs for a new high school and athletic facilities with 38 to 42 million in financing. Ohio Facilities Construction Commission offers 24 million in aid for refurbishing Cloverleaf High School. NEXUS proceeds would repay borrowed funds, with no new levy planned. A 2 mill permanent improvement levy renewal could be affected, possibly trimmed to 980 thousand annually if voters approve. Homeowners would pay about 61 dollars yearly per 100000 valuation. If NEXUS yields less, millage would still drop to 980 thousand. The auditor would adjust accordingly, and 2020 taxes would be lower than 2015.
