A concrete stretch of the Kalamazoo River in downtown Battle Creek is one step closer to returning to a natural state.
A redevelopment project along the River Raisin in downtown Adrian and improvements at Mitchell Park in Raisin Township are in the new state budget.
The Michigan Legislature wrapped up work on budget bills in a marathon session that lasted until early Friday, but there’s still be plenty more to be done because the state has billions to put towards services, savings or tax cuts.
The budget is estimated to be around $75 billion, which would be a record.
The roughly $77 billion plan includes a $54.8 billion for state departments as well as a combined $22.1 billion for school aid, community colleges, and public universities.
