East Lansing’s 2019 Great Pumpkin Walk tried a new schedule this year, running 1-4 p.m. Oct. 27 to accommodate working patents.
Safety concerns over a 52-foot fenced balcony at a proposed fraternity or sorority house led the East Lansing City Council to reject the idea. At a Oct. 8 meeting, GTW Investment Properties, LLC, representatives asked the council to approve the site plan and special-use permit for the four-story house at 215 and 217 River St. The 52 foot by 5 foot balcony was to be enclosed by a 42-inch fence. A door would access the balcony.

Gloria NobleRagine Head, Census Complete Count Committee intern. Look for signs that East Lansing is getting ready for the 2020 census, because its Complete Count Committee met Sept. 23 to discuss plans to distribute new flyers around the city.
These flyers are set to go out to various locations, including the Hannah Community Center and the East Lansing Public Library. The committee hopes to reach people that are harder to reach, including older individuals, international students and families, children and people of color, said Ragine Head, the city’s Census Complete Count Committee intern. “Notifying each group of how they directly benefit from these resources has been our primary goal,” Head said.
