The Daily Telegram
TECUMSEH City officials in Tecumseh now have a tool that will allow them to control where industrial hemp facilities are located in the city and their operation.
The city council on Monday voted 7-0 to approve an amendment to the city’s zoning ordinance to make industrial hemp facilities a special land use in areas of the city zoned for industrial use, or I-1.
Those places in the city zoned I-1 are the area of the former Tecumseh Products Co. from East Cummins Street to Russell Road plus some lots on the west side of South Evans Street, on the east side of South Maumee Street and across East Cummins Street from the former Products parking lot; the industrial park along Industrial Drive south of Russell Road, the Kirchhoff Automotive plant property on East Chicago Boulevard; and the south end of Meyers-Diver s Airport.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of death from cancer in both men and women in the US. Thanks in large part to increased screening of those over age 50 in last decade, overall CRC rates have been falling among the general population.
