It located along the Grand River, just thirty minutes away from Lake Michigan’s golden beaches and captivating sunsets. As Michigan’s second largest city, Grand Rapids has long been a mecca for creators and admirers of craftsmanship. Artistic creativity became an integral part of the city’s identity in the 20th century, encompassing everything from visual and performing arts to brewery and cuisine. With high incomes and low living costs, Grand Rapids offers big city amenities and a high quality of life to its residents. Grand Rapids’ well-maintained and traditionally Midwestern downtown area has a European appearance where the Grand River flows through it. Bustling with numerous restaurants, clubs, theaters and museums, downtown’s walkable neighborhoods host a number of festivals. Many of these events take place at the Vandenberg Plaza, namely the Celebration on the Grand and Festival of the Arts. 6 ~ Wendy’s ~ Grand Rapids ~ Michigan ~ AREA OVERVIEW Grand Rapids is home to one of the world’s most visited art museums, the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park, along with several other cultural assets including the Grand Rapids Subject Property Art Museum, the Van Andel Museum Center, the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum and the Roger B. Chaffee Planetarium. A myriad of theaters and stages further enhance Grand Rapids’ culture scene, offering live theater and performances by the city’s Grammy-nominated symphony. Economic Snapshot Upon its establishment, Grand Rapids emerged as a notable furniture-producing center due to nearby hardwood forests. Today, that industry has transitioned towards high-tech office furniture with the headquarters for such names as Steelcase and Herman Miller in the city, two of the world’s leading office furniture REGIONAL MAP companies. The surrounding area is agricultural, where greater agricultural variety than otherwise found in many Midwestern locations is promoted by the tempering effect of Lake Michigan. Michigan is second only to California in agricultural diversity; the area is responsible for producing 85% of all crops harvested in Michigan. In part because of the agricultural environment, the area was attractive to settlers who started large, successful businesses such as the Meijer, Van Andel and De Vos families, all of whom left large endowments to the city. Consequently, Meijer and Alticor are both headquartered in Grand Rapids along with other national and multi-national companies, such as Haworth, Wolverine World Wide and Zondervan. MAJOR EMPLOYERS 7 Development Interest in rebuilding Grand Rapids’ downtown core has been an ongoing theme since the late 1990’s with eleven LEED projects, new construction and renovations on historic buildings. An estimated $3 billion of generated investment has brought countless jobs to the active, high-energy urban center of a growing region of more than one million people. Moreover, the redevelopment of historic buildings into urban condominiums and apartments have brought over 4,000 young professionals into the walkable downtown area. Grand Rapids has demonstrated an innate ability to forge a dynamic public-private partnership between businesses and community leaders, setting a multi-billion-dollar development boom in motion. The city’s revitalization initiatives are viewed as a template for generating innovative public-private partnerships and a catalyst for world-class life sciences and biotechnology research. DEMOGRAPHICS 198,701 2017 Estimate 2.95% Projected Growth 2017 - 2022 POPULATION 80,660 2017 Estimate 3.82% # of Employees Projected Growth 2017 - 2022 HOUSEHOLDS $57,813 2017 Est. Average Household Income Western Michigan is the fastest growing region in the upper Midwest as start-ups, software firms and high-tech corporations continue to move into Grand Rapids, which surpasses eleven of its peer communities in manufacturing and job and wealth creation. Businesses find the city to be a great place to do business; Grand Rapids’ infrastructure is ready-made for business, offering facilities that range from incubator space for startups to industrial parks for manufacturing and centers for research development. It offers lower business taxes and opportunities for companies of any size and type. 8 ~ Wendy’s ~ Grand Rapids ~ Michigan ~ UNIQUELY GRAND RAPIDS Beer City Ale Trail Voted Beer City USA in national polls, the city also attracts beer lovers to its Beer City Ale Trail, which boasts more than 40 breweries. A booming craft brewery industry has garnered Grand Rapids a lot of attention. The Beer City Ale Trail takes visitors through a self-guided craft beer tour, allowing them to experience local craft breweries. Many of the area’s most notable breweries offer an insider look at the creation of their product. Grand Rapids is home to Founders, the third best brewery in the world, and HopCat, which was voted as the number one brewpub in the United States and the third best beer bar in the world: Two places certainly worth checking out! ArtPrize ArtPrize is Grand Rapids’ independent international art competition held every summer. The nineteen day-long event is unlike traditional competitions in that contestants are judged by the public and a jury of professional artists; It is the largest art competition decided by public vote. During the competition, art from all over the world can be seen on every corner of downtown. An approximate 200 venues open their doors for this event as the city serves as an opent platform for those wanting to share their artistic opinion, knowledge, and skills. Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park As an emerging worldwide cultural destination, Meijer Gardens is the state’s second-largest tourist attraction as well as a feature venue in ArtPrize. Located on a 158-acre campus, Meijer Gardens features Michigan’s largest tropical conservatory, sculpture galleries and permanent sculpture collection, outdoor gardens, nature trails and outdoor gardens. This attraction is one of the nation’s most significant sculpture and botanic experiences, drawing more than ten million visitors since its opening in 1995. GETTING AROUND Gerald R.

  • Devos Releases Unprecedented Amount of Personal Financial Information
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: John Truscott MARCH 31, 2006 (517) 485-8404 DeVos releases unprecedented amount of personal financial information Gubernatorial candidate Dick DeVos today released an unprecedented amount of personal financial information to demonstrate to voters that there clearly are no conflicts of interest or potential conflicts between his business holdings and state government. Today’s released information demonstrates that Dick and Betsy DeVos have paid all taxes in full, have no conflicts of interest and are proven community leaders. IRS data show that the average tax paid on income by Americans is 11.9 percent. The top 1 percent of income earners (those with incomes over $1.05 million) paid an average of 24.31 percent. Included in this document: • In an unprecedented move, Dick DeVos included a list of all the businesses in which he has an interest; • A list of 449 charities to which DeVos has contributed; and • This is a tremendous amount of detail; more than what would be provided in a tax return. #### Paid for by DeVos for Governor | PO Box 22216 | Lansing | MI | 48909 | 517-679-0191 www.DeVosforGovernor.com Dick and Betsy DeVos No Conflict of Interest March 31, 2006 Taxes Paid in Full The most recently filed tax return for Dick and Betsy DeVos is their 2004 return. (They must extend their tax returns each year due to information required from third-parties not being available by April 15.) The tax and income information below is based on their 1997-2004 tax returns: o Dick and Betsy DeVos paid both Federal and Michigan income taxes every year during the past eight years.
