Jonathan Kinloch named to Wayne County Commission
Jonathan Kinloch, a union official and member of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers, was appointed Thursday to replace the late Jewel Ware on the Wayne County Commission.
Kinloch, a Democrat, will represent District 2, which includes downtown Detroit, surrounding neighborhoods, Belle Isle and the area where the new Wayne County Criminal Justice Center will be located.
Kinloch will fill the two-year term of Ware, who died in December after being re-elected Nov. 3. Ware, a Democrat, was a former commission chair and had served as vice-chair pro tempore during the 2019-20 commission session. I’m extremely humbled in being appointed to the vacancy on the county commission due to the untimely passing of my friend and mentor Jewel C. Ware, he said. Jewel was a public servant who loved helping citizens in need.

If you’re wearing a mask, why would you care what everyone else does? You’re protected, right? Mask-less people aren’t going to infect you as long as you have your mask on, and you with your mask on are not going to infect them, so everything’s fine.
Oh, but it isn’t fine for some people. If they wear a mask, everyone should wear masks. If they get a vaccine, so should everyone. Because, otherwise, these people – taking a page from today’s culture, let’s call them Karens – look ridiculous.
Do the masks really work? Well, there are differing opinions on that, with a fair amount of evidence suggesting that they not only don’t help but might actually make things worse. In which case, the appropriate response might be for elected officials and other busybodies to let free citizens decide for themselves.

It s been more than a year since the Wayne County Commission voted to approve the sale of two historic mills in Hines Park. Since then, one of the proposed users has decided to back out from moving forward.
Citing costs at the site, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic, the community art center proposed by the Plymouth-based Art Foundation will no longer occupy the Wilcox Mill at 230 Wilcox in Plymouth. For the business model that we proposed, the project combined with the economic impact of the pandemic, just became unfeasible, Greg Hoffman, executive director of the Art Foundation, said.
The county commission voted in November 2019 to authorize the sale of both the Wilcox Mill and the Newburgh Mill, 37401 Hines Drive in Livonia, a decision that saw plenty of discussion during its two meetings held that to discuss the sale that month.
