New vets home zoning approved, with 1 condition.

Read the story on Mlive.com

Apparently someone got a hair up her tail recently when we wrote an op claiming that Jim Redford head of MVAA seems to be out of touch, in over his head, and the wrong man for the job.

This person also went off on another posting here and on our facebook page.

Well I think this story proves what we were saying. Many people feel the MVAA just shoved this project forward, without engaging the public or the local residents, and that is NOT good leadership, no matter how you like it.

And while the MVAA recently visited the Vets home and showed them why the new home needed to be put where they want to put it, many people outside the home wonder if it really needs to go there, and are there other options besides destroying one of the last remaining old growth patch of forest.
