Dear Editor, There have been several letters in the Detroit Free Press commending the result of the Governor’s actions based on data to control COVID-19. An examination comparing Michigan data to our neighboring states shows a different picture. The following data shows percentages of cases per population followed by number of deaths per case: US […]
Dear Editor, After a peek into his character, Andy Meisner will not be receiving my vote. L. Brooks Patterson was a man of honor and integrity and hard work from his days as Oakland County Prosecutor to last days as Oakland County Executive, a title I hope Andy Meisner will never have the opportunity to […]
Dear Mr. Meisner, It was with a heavy heart when my daughter and I attended Brooks’ funeral last August. To lose a man that cherished his family unconditionally and a man that strove for excellence throughout his leadership of Oakland County was devastating. To besmirch Brooks by calling him a racist and a misogynist and […]
Dear Editor, Just read the the despicable comments that Andy Meisner made (Clarkston News, June 24), calling Brooks Patterson “a racist, misogynist, and xenophobe.” These are the go-to words the D.C. Democrats use against Republicans constantly, and Mr. Meisner seems to be right on board with these sorts of insults. If he thinks he’s going […]
Dear Editor, I agree with Sam Moroco and Jim Reed (CNews June 10, June 17) that we don’t need glitzy signage in our village. Please leave our village as is. Glad 2020 grads had their day. I’m concerned pictures showed that grads not complying with CDC guidelines. No masks and no distancing. I hope none […]
Dear Editor, First of all, thank you for publishing the article, “Quarantine strands resident in Peru,” in the April 1, 2020 edition. Luckily, I was able to return to the United States on a U.S. Embassy Government evacuation flight to Washington Dulles on April 9, 2020. After experiencing a few weeks of living under martial […]
This is an open letter to the elected council for the City of the Village of Clarkston: Mayor Haven, council member and Mayor pro-tem Wylie, council members Avery, Kneisc, Luginski, Marsh, and Reynolds. According to the agenda item for Public Comments at City Council meetings, “public comments may be emailed” to the City Manager or […]
Dear Editor, Glad to get the CNews again. Thank you! Also, I want to express my support for Sam Moroco and his dislike of glitzy signs. Will Clarkston look like Las Vegas before we are done? What happened to a quiet little township? Sincerely, Jim Reed Clarkston
Dear Editor, I want to strongly encourage the residents of Springfield Township to support our Township Clerk Laura Moreau, in her campaign for the office of Springfield Township Supervisor. As a current member of both the Springfield Township Planning Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals as well as being a former Township Trustee, I have […]
Dear Editor, Last week, the Independence Township Board voted unanimously to allow LED full color message boards in all districts of the township except residential. Unlike the one approved solely for Alex’s Market on White Lake Road, which allowed only white letters on a black background, they are now going even further by allowing businesses […]
