HUNTINGTON WOODS The city of Huntington Woods is currently reviewing an ordinance on beekeeping.
The Huntington Woods City Commission originally had an ordinance on its April 6 agenda that regulated beekeeping at homes. The ordinance was proposed after the city stated it received complaints from residents that ranged from allergies to fears for children who are uncomfortable around bees.
The ordinance that was proposed would have established that residents would need to obtain a permit for $180, get consent from a neighbor, and could have a maximum of two hives on a lot that is up to a quarter of an acre.

If you look up, you may see a meteor shower painting streaks of light across the night sky, starting today until April 25.
The Lyrid meteor shower takes place every year, and it happens due to the Earth moving through the remnants of the tail of a comet named Thatcher, said Michael Narlock, head of astronomy at Cranbrook Institute of Science in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Thatcher comes around every 400 years or so, but basically the solar system is strewn with debris of comet tails, Narlock said. When that debris hits the Earth s atmosphere, it burns up and we see it as beautiful streaks in the nighttime sky.
