Rep. Andrea Schroeder last week said the state’s unemployment agency must make dramatic improvements – and be subject to more oversight – in the wake of continued service failures during the COVID-19 pandemic. “The people of Oakland County, and our entire state, deserve better service than they’ve been getting from Michigan’s Unemployment Insurance Agency,” said […]
Dear Editor, After reading about Patrick Kittle’s resignation as township supervisor in the July 14, 2021 edition of The Clarkston News, I immediately thought about Jose Aliaga as being an excellent choice to be appointed.

Dear Editor, Once again, the Clarkston Farm and Garden Club needs to shout out a very big THANK YOU to our amazing community! Last Wednesday, July 21, we held our 15th Annual Clarkston Garden Walk, and the attendance was record breaking! Nearly 700 people visited our city and toured the gardens that our six homeowners […]
