in 1981, he has composed
original New Jewish music
that combines klezmer with

than 282 acres in the city and
township, would help retain
27 full-time jobs and create

Mayor Dale Alessandrini
said he’s concerned the city
is surrendering too much in
potential tax revenues, but he
acknowledged the project’s
tourism and community ben-
efits. “It’s damned if we do or
damned if we don’t,” he said.
Council member Kyle
Blomquist asked if a signif-
icant amount of the work
might “fall off,” resulting in
fewer general benefits than
anticipated.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Tuesday, March 14, 2023 | 01:00 PM | Centennial Room
Michigan State Police Headquarters,
7150 Harris Drive, Dimondale, MI 48221
The Department of State Police will hold a public hearing to
receive public comments on proposed changes to the Tests for
Breath Alcohol rule set.
The proposed rules are changes to existing rules that have
accompanied the current evidential breath alcohol test
instrument since the adoption, purchase, and installation
of those instruments. The State of Michigan is purchasing
new instruments with additional technology, features, and
expanded capabilities and will need to amend the existing
rules to accommodate both the technology and new features.
The amendments to the rules also apply to training users and
technicians on the operation of the new instrument.
