Northville City Councilman Jim Allen had an interesting quote at the council meeting Monday night:
“The world is changing, and we’re protecting the way things are,” he said.
He was expressing concern about the recent tax hikes approved in Lansing and the tax spread across a variety of services. State Rep. Marc Corriveau (D-Northville) was there, talking about those and other issues.
I’ve got to hand one thing to Corriveau; he hasn’t exactly been shy about talking about the situation in Lansing. He’s been more visible than any other state representative I’ve seen during the last several years. He shows up at these meetings, knowing he’s going to be asked tough questions, but answering them—or trying to—just the same.
