GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â West Michigan businesses are pleading with leaders at the state and federal level to pass a relief package after the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services extended restrictions Friday.
âJust getting a little too tight right now,â said Mike Urbane, owner of Fat Boy. âWrong time of the year to be shutting down.â
Urbane bought Fat Boy 12 years ago after spending his childhood at the Northeast Grand Rapids restaurant.
âWhen we were in high school, we all hung out here,â said Urbane.
