I started in serving? working in the State Senate when I was 22 and over the last decade have gone on to work for a U.S. Senator and Governor. What I didn’t expect along the way to was to discover a truer, deeper sense of service. I do what is known as “casework.” This is when a constituent contacts an elected official because they are having some sort of problem. Eviction, access to health care, issues getting public assistance, you name it. It is incredibly difficult work and is the least desired field among political staffers.

On March 16, 2020, I issued an emergency order closing all City buildings to the public and sending a large portion of our workforce to work from home due to the COIVD-19 pandemic. We were faced with the same questions as the rest of the country: how to run a city while protecting our employees and our residents? City of Lansing employees showed up and continue to serve residents with integrity and professionalism. Our essential workers, the backbone of our City, washed their hands, masked up and went to work. Our police officers, firefighters, paramedics and EMT’s responded to tens of thousands of calls for service to aid our residents and keep them safe. Our Public Service staff completed more than 14 miles of road improvements, more than 1,200 tree trimming/removals and cleaned more than 66 miles of storm and sanitary sewer pipes. Ingham County Parks Millage funded work continued to maintain and improve the Lansing River Trail by resolving riverbank erosion near Moores Park that included fortifying the riverbank and repairing fencing.

Early on in the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chamber assembled a group of community and business leaders to provide leadership in helping to reopen our regional economy safely. Those involved in the early stages of RELAUNCH Greater Lansing Task Force immediately recognized the importance of having leading educators in both K-12 and higher education represented on TIM DAMAN the task force. President and CEO Lansing Regional The Lansing Regional Chamber is proud to have played a leadership role during COVID-19, not only in the RELAUNCH Chamber of Commerce Greater Lansing task force but actively communicating the latest information about COVID-19, something we found changed daily.
