  • Detroit's Capitol Park
    LANDMARK OF LIBERTY: Detroit’s Capitol Park By Jack Dempsey hen Michigan commemorated the Wbicentennial birthday of its first governor in 2011, the ceremony occurred in a place largely unknown to citizens of the Great Lakes State. That lack of familiarity is unfortunate, for the location should be easily identifiable to every Michigander. JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2012 | 19 Avenue, west of Woodward Avenue. As a constituent part of the Northwest Territory from 1805 to 1837, Michigan’s government apparatus differed significantly from that of today. Detroit was the capital, and a unicameral body called the Territorial Council exercised legislative authority for the people. Such authority was, however, circumscribed and divorced from direct influence by the public. The president of the United States appointed many of the council’s members, and its enactments were subject to veto by Congress. Michigan sent a single, nonvoting delegate to the U.S. House of Representatives, who acted as the voice of the territory in hiladelphia is home to Independence National the national legislature. No one represented it in the U.S. Historical Park, where the National Park Service Senate.

Once Dearborn’s Greenfield Village is featured in the park, along the territory possessed the requisite population, it could with the Liberty Bell and Benjamin Franklin’s grave. The declaration of 1776 issued forth from there. It is hallowed ground for our nation. Michigan possesses a comparable site: Capitol Park in downtown Detroit.

  • Racial Justice and Equity Appendices
    Mayor’s Report on Racial Justice and Equity Appendices AUGUST • 2021 1 MAYOR’S REPORT ON RACIAL JUSTICE AND EQUITY 2 MAYOR’S REPORT ON RACIAL JUSTICE AND EQUITY Apendix A History of Lansing 3 MAYOR’S REPORT ON RACIAL JUSTICE AND EQUITY Lansing: A Brief History to Set the Stage The first person of European descent to travel through the area that is now Lansing was British fur trader Hugh Heward and his French-Canadian team. This happened on April 24, 1790 while canoeing the Grand River. In 1827, the densely forested land was surveyed as “Township 4 North Range 2 West,” and three years later was offered up for sale. There would be no roads to this area for decades to come. In 1836, two brothers from New York plotted the area just south of downtown Lansing and named it “Biddle City”. This land lay in a floodplain and was underwater most of the year. But this didn’t stop the brothers from returning to Lansing, New York, where they sold these plots of land to unsuspecting New Yorkers. Nearly 20 men bought plots of land in a city they were told was an area of 65 blocks and had a church and a public square. They arrived only to find they’d been scammed. Most went on to live in other areas of Michigan that had actually already been settled. Lansing remained a settlement of fewer than 20 until the winter of 1847 when the state constitution required the capital be moved from Detroit to a more central and safe location in the state’s interior.

  • A Benefit-Cost Analysis for the Use Of
    A BENEFIT-COST ANALYSIS FOR THE USE OF INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY FOR TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION ZONE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT ON THE I-496 RECONSTRUCTION IN LANSING, MICHIGAN An MSA685 Integrative Paper Submitted to: Louis A. Reibling, Ph.D. in Partial Completion of the Degree of Master of Science in Administration Central Michigan University Submitted by: Joseph A. Kratofil, Jr. March 14, 2001 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Michigan Department of Transportation is in the process of implementing Intelligent Transportation System technology as a temporary installation for managing traffic flow associated with the I-496 reconstruction in Lansing, Michigan. To help understand the value of such a system, a benefit/cost analysis has been conducted. The benefit/cost analysis was based on accepted procedures and evaluation frameworks for permanent ITS systems across the United States. Data from previous studies were used to estimate benefits for the ITS system. Also, data from the Tri-County Regional Planning Commission’s Travel Demand Model were used to estimate system impacts as a result of the construction project. In some cases, where data elements were missing, reasonable, yet conservative assumptions were made The analysis indicates that the benefits of the proposed I- 496 temporary ITS system outweigh the costs by a factor of two to one. With a total cost, including engineering costs, of approximately $2,500,000 for the ITS system, the analysis indicates net benefits of nearly $5,000,000. These benefits come from anticipated reductions in accidents, travel time, i environmental impacts and energy consumption. Additional benefits in terms of customer satisfaction, productivity and other factors may exist, but could not be quantified using available data.
