Muskegon County Wants to Hear From You!!

Muskegon County wants your input on what can be done in the local districts about recreational development!  What?  The county wants to spend some money on making things better around here?   Hey!!  We'll talk all day about something new and good coming to Muskegon!!

Local county commissioners will be out in their districts coming up in March to talk about the ideas for every local municipality and taking your input as to what is the best addition to your neighborhood.  Could Roosevelt Park use a dog park?  How about Muskegon Heights?  New playground equipment?  Twin Lake?  Whitehall?  Come on to the meetings and let your county commissioner earn their check and get to work for you!


I had a chance to sit down with Connie Maxim-Sparrow, who's the Grant Coordinator for Muskegon County and we talked a little about some of the ideas already before the county commissioners and why it's important for "John Q Public" to not only take an active role in their community  but to develop a relationship with their representatives and keep an open channel to help them improve the quality of life in Muskegon!  Take a listen to the interview below.

You'll find the dates, times and locations for the meeting in your district below!  Please, take a few minutes of your day and attend a meeting to let YOUR government know what YOU would like to make Muskegon better for all of us!
