2013 Macomb County Directory History of the Macomb County Building By: Cynthia S. Donahue Facilities and Operations acomb County had outgrown its 3rd MCourthouse by the 1920s, and in November of 1926, voters approved a 5 year 1 mill tax for a new building. The old Court- house was torn down in 1930 and county offices were temporarily housed throughout the town. St. Clair Shores architect George Haas and general contractor Otto Misch were chosen to build the new facility. The name was changed at that time from the Court Building to the County Building to reflect the different departments the new facility would house. The cornerstone laying was in July of 1931, with the building scheduled to open on January 1, 1932. Lacking funds to continue working during the height of the depression, work ceased on the building with no roof and no funds to weatherproof what had been completed, and it stood unfinished for 18 months. Construction was renewed in 1933, and the building in all its glory began to emerge as the exterior was completed. The Art Deco structure was given a military motif, and the 13 floor building was topped with eight granite heads.

At that time, it covered a much larger area than it does today. In 1819 and 1820, large portions of the county were removed to form the counties of Oakland, Lapeer, Genesee and St. Clair. The first Europeans arrived in the area during the 17th century. They included French fur trappers who recognized the richness of the marshes and sought new opportunities for trade. Moravian missionaries established the first organized, non-native settlement in the county in 1782 as a refuge for Christianized Indians driven out of Ohio. They built along the banks of the Clinton River, then known as the Huron River, but were forced to leave four years later by the Chippewa Indians. In the late 1790s, Christian Clemens visited the area, and in March 1800, purchased a distillery considered the first building on the site of the future Mount Clemens. The next year he purchased 500 acres for development. This site, known as High Banks, was platted as the Village of Mount Clemens in 1818, when it was proclaimed the Macomb County Seat. In the early 1800s, and at least by 1840, settlers moved into the interior of the county, carving out farms from the hardwood forests. The roots of the county villages and townships were established by this time. In addition to the original French and English, later settlers included Germans, Belgians and others who came directly from Europe. In the 1870s, mineral baths brought international fame to Mount Clemens. Many believed the waters had healing powers. Although the stream still runs beneath the city, interest in the spas died out in the early 20th century. Recently, there has been a reemergence of interest in the mineral baths now being offered at Henry Ford Macomb-East Campus in Mount Clemens. Between 1920 and 1930, Macomb County doubled in population, rising from 38,103 to 77,146 persons. Two significant developments spurred this growth – the establishment of Selfridge Field in 1917, and the beginning of the urbanization movement northward from the City of Detroit. During the 1940s and the 1950s the movement from the central city to the suburbs increased. The largest growth occurred between 1950 and 1970, when over 440,000 people were added to Macomb County’s population. Today, Macomb County encompasses 482 square miles, and ranks third in population in the state, with a 2010 census total of 840,978 persons. The county is recognized as a leader in business and industry, and designated as a “Community of Economic Excellence” by the State of Michigan History prepared in consultation with the Macomb County Historical Society and Crocker House Museum. 2013 Macomb County Directory provided by Macomb County Clerk/Register of Deeds Carmella Sabaugh • 3 MACOMB COUNTY FACILITY LOCATIONS 1 County Service Center: Animal Shelter: 21417 Dunham Rd., Clinton Twp.

  • 2020 Post-Election Recap and Outlook
    2020 Post-Election Recap and Outlook Please click here for complete election results from the Michigan Secretary of State. Summary: As with many other states in the 2020 election, Michigan’s results were closer than expected and resulted in narrow victories for top-of-the ticket Democratic candidates. However, Republicans were able to maintain their legislative majority in the state House of Representatives, and kept several contested Congressional seats. Michigan’s state government remains closely divided, like the federal government in Washington, D.C. Background: Following strong Democratic statewide gains in 2018 and based on polling trends, Democrats were expected to succeed in Michigan in 2020. Presidential candidate Joe Biden saw Michigan – along with Wisconsin and Pennsylvania – as key to rebuilding the traditional Midwestern “blue wall” in the Electoral College. Biden had enjoyed consistent polling leads of between 5 and 10% leading up to the election. Democrats also hoped to “flip” the state House of Representatives to control one of the state legislative bodies for the first time since 2010, and give Governor Whitmer a governing partner. They only needed to flip four seats to do so, and were targeting several strong opportunities in suburban Oakland and Kalamazoo counties with the help of large campaign funds raised. For the U.S. House of Representatives, Democrats were targeting two seats for potential pickups: the third district around Grand Rapids held by outgoing Rep. Justin Amash (now a Libertarian), and the sixth district in Kalamazoo and SW Michigan held by longtime moderate Republican Rep. Fred Upton. On the other hand, first-term U.S.

    Chapter III THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH Profile of the Michigan Legislature . 125 The Michigan Legislature . 127 The 97th Legislature . 137 Legislative Officers and Agencies . 238 Former Legislatures and Legislative Officers . 249 Sources of Michigan Legislative Information . 264 2013– 2014 PROFILE OF THE MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE The legislative power of the state of Michigan is vested in a bicameral (2-chamber) body comprised of a senate and a house of representatives. The senate consists of 38 members who are elected by the qualified electors of districts that range in size from approximately 248,600 to 274,600 residents (under a redistricting plan enacted in 2001). Senators are elected at the same time as the governor and serve 4-year terms concurrent with the governor’s term of office. The house of representatives consists of 110 members who are elected by the qualified electors of districts that range in size from approximately 77,000 to 91,000 residents (under a redistricting plan enacted in 2011). Representatives are elected in even-numbered years to 2-year terms. Legislative districts are drawn on the basis of popu lation figures obtained through the federal decennial census. Terms for senators and representatives begin on January 1, following the November general election. Effective with terms of office beginning on or after January 1, 1993, state legislators (as well as the governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, and attorney general) are subject to term limitations. State senators may not be elected more than 2 times and state representatives may not be elected more than 3 times. (Partial terms that are less than half of a full term are not counted as one of these terms.) The state legislature enacts the laws of Michigan; levies taxes and appropriates funds from money collected for the support of public institutions and the administration of the affairs of state government; proposes amendments to the state constitution, which must be approved by a majority vote of the electors; and considers legislation proposed by initiatory petitions.

    A History of The Office of the State Land Board H164 Michigan’s present Capitol, the state’s third, opened on January 1, 1879, to great acclaim. Image Courtesy of the Archives of Michigan The Golden Age of Capitol Construction The Michigan State Capitol was built during the golden age of Capitol construction in the years follow- ing the American Civil War. From its inception, the building was designed to serve several functions and roles for the state. First, and most importantly, it is the official seat of government for the State of Michigan. It is a public forum where people can express their opinions, and a symbol of governmental traditions and the state itself. Yet the Capitol is also, at its very essence, an office building, where the day-to-day functions of government have played out for well over a century. When the Capitol first opened in 1879, it was state government’s only active office building, where all three branches of government were housed. The executive branch, including the Governor, State Treasurer, Secretary of State, State Librarian, Auditor General, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the Adjutant General, claimed most of the offices within it. The judicial branch was represented by the Supreme Court, which occupied offices and an elegant chamber in the east wing of the third floor. The legislative branch used the House and Senate Chambers, the largest and most impressive rooms in the Capitol, as well as offices for the Secretary of the Senate, the Clerk of the House, and a few committee rooms.
