Surprised and (a little) disappointed

The City of Plymouth has, in my estimation, great city services. I’ve been impressed in years past with how prompt the city gets streets cleared of snow. But there have been several snowfalls the past week and I have not seen our streets plowed once. “Mess” might be too harsh a word, but the residential [...]
Still a small town

We hear all the time in the media how “disconnected” people are from each other in modern society. There’s a paradox at work: it is easier to communicate these days but we communicate less personally, perhaps even less frequently. Face-to-face communication is said to have less importance. We are also told are communities are more [...]

I drove by the Penn Theatre this morning and noticed that the new marquis is in place. It looks great! It’s a definite improvement over the old one. It has a traditional/historic look and fits the architecture of the building very nicely. The message on the marquis says that it will be lit on June [...]

Plymouth Mayor Phil Pursell will not seek re-election to the City Commission even though he is eligible for another term. He has said he would like to spend more time with his family and move onto other things. Best of luck, Mayor. http://www.hometownlife.com/article/20090604/NEWS15/906040578/1032/Pursell+bows+out+after+2+city+terms
“Trailhead” development project

The old factory/warehouse on the west side of Lilley/Mill, between Ann Arbor Trail Road and Main Street, was partially demolished months ago. Clearly some development project has been in the works or demolition would have been completed. In the last few days, there has been a sign on the property indentifying the area/project as “Trailwood,” [...]
It’s true: you get what you pay for

If you own a home in the City of Plymouth, you know that taxes here are pretty steep. Cross the road into the township and watch thousands drop off your yearly tax bill. Cities in this area are considerably cheaper to live in tax-wise, but city services elsewhere don’t match ours in town. The recent [...]
