The Northside Ministerial Alliance held their annual Community Prayer Breakfast this morning. It was a room full of great people who care about Kalamazoo's future. An uplifting message was delivered by the President of the Detroit NAACP, Wendell Anthony.
This evening was a meeting of Vine Neighborhood residents about traffic and parking concerns around Oakland Drive and Wheaton. Briefly put, the long-time residents in the area are rightly concerned about potential changes in roads and traffic on WMU's campus and how it may negatively impact their quality of life. A chain of events has left them with the symptoms of a parking and campus planning problem. A positive, considerate solution needs to be sought or the situation will be resolved unsatisfactorily as a win/lose outcome. We can do better than that in Kalamazoo.
Coming up: Candidate Forums! First one is the Downtown Retailers Association/Downtown Kalamazoo Restaurant Association this Thursday at 6:00. Watch this space for video highlights and more!
