February Monthly Meeting
Join us for our February Monthly Meeting. We will be spending time unpacking the new maps that have been drawn for Michigan and discussing the implications of the new districts fir Royal Oak and Clawson.  If you've been meaning to sit down and make sense of them - this is the meeting for you! The Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission adopted its Chestnut Congressional, Linden state Senate, and Hickory state House plans. You can search your home address at the top of each map to see the new borders.

The 2021 Oakland County State of The County address will air Wednesday, May 19 in a virtual format in order to comply with Coronavirus precautions.

Oakland County Executive David Coulter will speak to the resilience of Oakland County’s people, employees and businesses as they’ve endured 14 months of living with COVID-19, perhaps the most challenging public health and economic crisis of our lifetime.

Getting through the pandemic has tested the county, its residents and businesses, but has shown that we are all up to the challenge and are prepared to begin building the county’s future now, together.

Looking back over a year like no other, as well as toward the goals of the future, Coulter will provide a recap of the progress made on key priorities and offer a glimpse at the transformational changes that lie ahead, building on Oakland’s strengths, addressing our disparities and preparing us for a strong future.
