The 127-acre orchard was intended to produce large volumes of jack pine and red pine cones for planting seedlings on state forest land elsewhere in Michigan. A short-term mining lease was seen as the most cost-effective way to prepare the land, the DNR said. The 50-acre and 77-acre parcels in Genoa Township near the Brighton State Recreation Area are contaminated by a sodium and chloride plume and old township dump.

The Senate Election Committee unanimously approved substitutes to two bills during a May 26 hearing. The first addressed a bill requiring absentee ballot applications to be submitted with a photocopy of personal identification, while the other prevents Benson’s office from mass-mailing absentee applications. Johnson criticized Benson before the 2020 General Election for mailing absentee ballot applications to everyone in the Qualified Voter File. These substitutes are the newest tweaks to Senate election bills, which Democrats and liberal activists lambasted as “voter suppression” tactics upon their introduction. In the bill’s current form, absentee voters could submit their ballots to their clerk’s offices in person after 5 p.m.

A Brighton man entered a no-contest plea Thursday in connection to an assault last fall in which police say he threw a sandbag off an overpass and hit a car that was driving by. Garcia is accused of throwing the 40-pound sandbag off the overpass at at I-96 near Old Plank Road on Oct. 4 around 11 p.m. Shortly after throwing the sandbag, police say Garcia stopped another motorist and asked for a ride. While a no-contest plea is not an admission of guilt, it is treated as such during sentencing in criminal court. However, if a civil lawsuit were to be filed, Garcia’s no-contest plea in the criminal matter could not be treated as an admission of guilt.
