First Thing: Farmington Hills Officials Talk About Ballot Citizenship Checkbox
City council members will also hear about the renewable energy ballot measure during their 6 p.m. study session.
A controversial move by Michigan's Secretary of State will be among the items discussed during a Farmington Hills city council session today at 6 p.m. in the community room at city hall. Officials will discuss the citizenship checkbox on Michigan ballots, as well as the renewable energy ballot proposal, before taking up a light agenda at 7:30 p.m.
Today's historical photo shows a group of men standing in front of T.H. McGee Druggist, a store built after a devastating fire that swept through downtown Farmington in 1872. The building was torn down in 1916; it sat next to the Exchange Building, which is now home to Pniewski Insurance Agency.
