Calhoun County (Michigan) Board of Commissioners Vice-Chair Steve Frisbie updates listeners on attempts to establish a transit authority – which met with success in September, 2023. But, not all municipalities in the county are on board.
Frisbie also offered his view on the late-September announcement from Ford Motor Company that it would pause construction on the BlueOval Battery Park Michigan on the Marshall Megasite.
