A newly posted webinar<\/a> (watch above) by the Michigan Municipal League lays out the details on Proposal 1 heading to voters May 5 and includes neutral information as well as details on why the League supports the proposal. The League is an active\u00a0member of the Safe Roads Yes!<\/a> coalition that is backing\u00a0Proposal 1.\u00a0Check out<\/a> the League’s Safe Roads Yes! webpages that explains the impact Proposal 1 will have on Michigan municipalities.<\/p>\n

\"Bad<\/a>The webinar<\/a> by the League’s John LaMacchia II took place on Friday (Feb 27, 2015)\u00a0and is available for viewing for free for League and community members. The webinar focuses on the history leading up to the Legislature coming up with Proposal 1, what it means for communities and how there’s no Plan B for fixing our roads should the plan fail on May 5.<\/p>\n

There has been a lot of media coverage and work by the Safe Roads Yes! coalition in recent days regarding Proposal 1. One of the best, most informative pieces came out Friday (Feb. 27, 2015) by the Detroit Free Press. With the headline, “Roads 101: What you need to know about Proposal 1<\/a>,” the opinion piece by the Freep editorial board is in question and answer format. It does an excellent job laying out some of the concerns people may have about Proposal 1 and then addressing those concerns.<\/p>\n

One other thing that happened late last week was the approval of the official ballot language<\/a> for Proposal 1. You can read that here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition, the League continues to ask its member communities to approve resolutions in support of Proposal 1. These resolutions are vital to letting your residents know that Proposal 1 is good for communities and will improve our deteriorating roads. Go here for a sample resolution<\/a>\u00a0in both Word and PDF<\/a> formats.<\/p>\n

League members who have questions about Proposal 1 should contact the League’s John LaMacchia II at jlamacchia@mml.org or 517-908-0303\"\"<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n
