Just what Lansing needs a reduction in street resurfacing program ! They can not keep up with the one we have now ! Not only a lot of streets need repaving but a lot of sewer work is needed with this old clay tile piping we have ! Face it a lot of our infrastructure is very old and in bsd shape ! Lets not get started on our paved alleys !
