Retail forcast getting better

The economy might not be the best right now but people in Michigan did spend money over the Christmas Holiday. People need to realize how important it is to spend money locally and keep those dollars in their community.
This does a couple different things. First it helps to keep companies locally from going out of business and it also keeps jobs in the area. In keeping those jobs here it keeps tax dollars and money in your community rather than sending it out of town.
By no means does this mean to not shop outside the community but keep in mind what stimulating your community can do.
The Village of Dexter had five important and well attended public hearings at the planning commission on Monday. A lot of good information was given and the public asked some good questions.
The commission voted to put the new items to the Village Council. You can read about this at www.heritage.com or in the print version of the Dexter Thursday.
Happy blogging and leave a comment if you have one.
