An agreement announced earlier this month between the state of Michigan and the U.S. Air Force already is coming under fire. The verbal agreement was meant as a step forward in the investigation of PFAS contamination at the former Wurtsmith Air Force Base in Oscoda. However, local officials and activists are not impressed. In fact, a pair of individuals - Oscoda Township supervisor Aaron Weed and Metro Detroit attorney Tony Spaniola - have blasted the agreement, going so far as calling it "propaganda." They say the agreement actually is an impediment to speeding up the sluggish investigation.

Deer Run Golf Course has a rather unique history. A World War II veteran once raised a family and a herd of beef cattle on the property in Liberty Township just south of Jackson. The cows were sold and a new vision emerged: Build a private country club with a 9-hole golf course. Now, the third owner in the history of the course is ready to take over and upgrade the course.
