A BRIEF HISTORY
OP
PARKER MEMORIAL BAPTIST CHURCH
In September 1932, a small group of people from South Baptist Church
organized a Sunday School under the name "The Union Gospel Sunday
School" and they met in the old Forest Road School building. The Church
was organized in the same school building in February, 1935, 'and the
Church and Sunday School was carried on under lay leadership until it was
incorporated May 24, 1938, with 29 members.
In 1938, an acre of land at 1902 East Cavanaugh Road was graciously

given as a memorial to Mrs. Lena Parker; hence, the name. "Parker
Memorial Baptist Church" . The first services at the Cavanaugh Road
location was on July 30, 1939.
A metal "Wonder. Building " -was constructed in 1956 as the church outgrew
the original wood frame building. On June 7, 1964, ground was broken for
the present auditorium.
The metal building was dismantled in 1990 and the entire east wing was
remodeled. This made way for the covered drive through at the east
entrance, a larger lobby, a new church office complex, enlarged classrooms,
enlarged restrooms, and a new kitchen-lunchroom. area.
Another, building was added just a few years ago that contains our World
Wide Bible Ministries, along with a gymnasium for our school and a place
of fellowship for our members.

To Whom It May Concern:
It has come to my attention that. the members of the Parker Memorial 'Baptist Clutch
would wish to tribute their Pastor, Dr. Don Green, with having the bridge near Hawk Island, on
Cavanaugh Rd, - named affee him. I believe this would be a great honor to him, considering his
great impact on the community.
Called to preach at the you age of 16, Pastor Green will have been a Member of the
church for 55 years as of August 14 , 2010. He has 'raised a family, consisting of 5 boys and one
daughter, to follow in his footsteps. He, and his congregation, has be. active in reaching the
Word throughout the community by Sunday school, Vacation Bible School, and bus ministry.
They have went out of their way to bring people to chub, who had difficult station,
while providing people with feed and .clothing as they could.
Pastor Green has been a big financial supporter of the City Rescue Mission. He taw sent
ministries, along with himself, to preach there as well acs in jails, prisons, and nursing homes. He
spends many hours with the sick and those in need. As people will say, he really is a "People
home
Green has also administrated a Christian School andbible Institute. He is engaged'

primarily in Educational ministries, making tomes and booklets, epreadiag the gospel Not only
has he reached out through the community, but the, world as well. He has traveled to many
diet countries with his teachings,
Tank you for taking this time to consider naming the bridge the 'Donald. L. Green
Memorial Bridge? I'm sure after reeding this letter; you will see Dr, Doteaetut as a caring, heed
wanting person who deserves to be recognized in such a way.
Sincerely,
Alan L. Cropsey

Esteemed Members of the Lansing City Council:
The congregation of the Parker Memorial Baptist Church at 1902 E. Cavanaugh, is requesting the naming a
bridge in honor of their pastor Dr, Don Green. It is a pleasure and an honor for me to write a letter of support
in the naming of the bridge spanning the creek on E, Cavanaugh road near Hawk Island Park for Pastor Dr.
Don Green. The bridge is immediately west of the church.
Dr. Green has been the pastor of Parker Memorial Baptist Church since 1955 and has enriched the lives of
thousands of Lansing citizens in that span of time. He has provided leadership for church members that
strengthen the moral fiber of our city. Dr, Green is married to Fay and has six children, five sons that are
ordained ministers and a daughter that is married to a minister. Since he came to Lansing as a pastor, he has
extended support to the families of his church by initiating the programs that promote strong family values
and involvement in caring for others. Among his many, many accomplishments is the starting of a bible
publishing effort that provides free bibles to anyone who' cannot afford one, and starting a school in 1974.
Through his leadership the congregation is a strong supporter of missionaries all over the world. Through his
tireless efforts and inspiration, he has a congregation that is involved in an extensive number of activities.
He is one man, resolved to live the life of a Christian; a great example for all us. Ills leadership, first with his
family and then with his congregation has impacted Lansing with the strong citizens that serve the whole
community and branch out to serve-the world.
I have had the pleasure of knowing Pastor Green for many years and feel that he is certainly worthy of this
recognition. I totally support the naming of the bridge in his honor. Please call me should you need
additional information.

REPORT FROM THE SECRETARY #10-014
TRAFFIC CONTROL REQUEST: MANLEY DRIVE AND WABASH ROAD
The Transportation and Parking Office conducted an investigation to determine sight

distance and traffic control requirements at the intersection of Manley Drive and
Wabash Road. This study was conducted in response to a request made by an area
resident and as part of the program to investigate all uncontrolled intersections in the
city.
The intersection of Manley Drive and Wabash Road is a residential three-leg

intersection. Manley Drive is approximately six blocks long beginning at Forest Road
and ending at Wabash Road. Manley Drive is 22 feet wide in this area with unrestricted
parking. Wabash Road is eight blocks long beginning at Aurelius Road and ending east
of Leawood Drive. Wabash Road is 22 feet wide in this area with unrestricted parking.
A safe approach speed study was performed and revealed a safe approach speed of
eighteen (18) miles per hour due to the large pine trees in the northeast quadrant of the
intersection. This critical safe approach speed applies to vehicles traveling westbound
and southbound into the intersection.
A review of the traffic crash records for this intersection indicates there have been no
reported crashes from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2009.
The Transportation and Parking Office recommends installing a stop sign on Manley
Drive at Wabash Road due to the safe approach speed and to eliminate right-of-way
confusion at this intersection.

ROADWAY RECONFIGURATION REQUEST: MOUNT HOPE AVENUE
The Transportation Section of the Public Service Department's Engineering Division

received a request from a property owner on Mount Hope Avenue to review the existing
traffic characteristics on Mount Hope Avenue between Aurelius Road and the eastern
city Limits.
Mount Hope Avenue is an east/west roadway that begins at Moores River Drive and
continues to the east to the east City limits. Mount Hope Avenue is approximately 44
feet wide with curb and gutter from Aurelius Road to the east City limits. The road was
striped for two 11 foot travel lanes in each direction with the exception of the left turn,
through and right turn lanes east of Aurelius Road. Parking is prohibited along both
sides of Mount Hope Avenue between Aurelius Road and the east City limits:
The Transportation section has reviewed the traffic characteristics of Mount Hope
Avenue and has identified two geometric configurations that are feasible within the
available pavement width.
The configurations are: 1) keep the current four lane cross section or 2) change the
configuration to a three lane cross section (one lane in each direction) with a paved
shoulder.
The engineering advantages of the four lane cross section are: 1) the ability to carry
more traffic and 2) lower delay for eastbound traffic at the intersection of Mt. Hope and
Aurelius.
The engineering advantages of the three lane cross section are: 1) the provision of a
center left turn lane which improves safety, 2) separation of the directions of traffic
which also increases safety, 3) creation of a buffer area between the curb and the travel
lane to access mailboxes and 4) more uniform and potentially slower travel speeds.
Generally, three lane cross sections work well for traffic volumes up to 15,000 -18,000
vehicles per day. The current traffic volume along this section of Mt. Hope Avenue is
approximately 11,000 vehicles per day, similar to Kalamazoo Street which was
converted to three lanes in 1998.
The proposed striping layout would consist of an eleven foot center turn lane, a twelve
foot travel lane for each direction (eastbound and westbound), and a 4.5 foot bike lane
for each direction (eastbound and west bound).
The Transportation section mailed out a survey to property owners along Mount Hope
Avenue between Aurelius Road and the east City limits to gather input regarding the
roadway configuration. Of the twenty-two (22) surveys sent to property owners nine (9)
or 40.9% were returned. Six (6) or 27.3% of the surveys were returned as undeliverable
or vacant and seven (7) or 31.8% of the surveys were not returned.

four lanes to three lanes and bike lanes. Two (2) or 22.2% of the property owners
wanted to retain the four lane cross section.
The Transportation section has reviewed the request and the survey results and
recommends converting Mount Hope Avenue east of Aurelius Road to the east city
limits from four lanes to three lanes and bike lanes.

INTERSECTION RECONFGURATION REQUEST: HOLMES ROAD & EXPRESS COURT
The City of Lansing Transportation and Parking Office received requests from the
Lansing Charter Academy and the U.S. Postal Office Southwest Carrier Annex located
on Express Court north of Holmes Road. The requests were to investigate issues
related to vehicles making dual left turns onto Holmes Road from Express Court,
difficulty turning left onto Holmes Road, and delays to traffic exiting onto Holmes Road
due to improper lane use. These issues are related primarily to the traffic generated by
the newly constructed Lansing Charter Academy.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Holmes Road:
Holmes Road is a four lane roadway, two lanes each direction, beginning at Waverly
Road, that develops a center turn lane at Somerset Apartments and continues as five
lanes through the intersection with Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. Holmes Road is
approximately 47 feet wide west of Somerset Drive and approximately 56 feet wide east
of Somerset.
Express Court:
Express Court is located north of Holmes Road between Pleasant Grove Road and
Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. Express Court is approximately 450 feet in length
and 36 feet wide from edge of pavement to edge of pavement. Express Court is one
lane in each direction.
OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
Holmes Road:
The Transportation and Parking Office and Engineering Division recently made
operational changes to improve the segment of Holmes Road between Waverly Road
and Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard.
The Public Service Department recently reconstructed the Holmes Road and Waverly
Road intersection to accommodate a southbound left turn lane from Waverly Road onto
Holmes Road. In addition to the lane modifications, accessible pedestrian ramps and
signal modernizations were implemented.
City Council has approved safety modifications to the Pleasant Grove and Holmes Road
intersection. These modifications include reconfiguring Holmes Road at Pleasant Grove
from four lanes to two lanes and left turn lanes and implementing a protected-
permissive left turn lane and signal timing adjustments. The headed up left-turn lane is
expected to reduce crash severity and the timing modifications are expected to reduce
overall delay to motorists.
1
August 3, 2006
The Public Service Department recently completed a construction project on Holmes

Road between Waverly Road and Pleasant Grove Road which reduced the number of
travel lanes to one travel lane in each direction, incorporated a two-way center left turn
lane, and implemented modified shoulders. These modifications will match the
improvements that were been previously approved for the Holmes Road and Pleasant
Grove Road Intersection.
Daily traffic volumes were collected along Holmes Road in 2010. Daily two-way traffic
volumes were as follows: 12,000 vehicles per day (vpd) just west of the Logan Center
crosswalk; 10,525 vpd east of Pleasant Grove Road; and 8,075 vpd west of Averill
Drive. These volumes indicate a steady decline in traffic since 1997 when Holmes
Road carried 17,950 vpd. The traffic volume on Holmes Road was 15,925 vpd in 1987.
Express Court:
Express Court is one lane in each direction and serves the U.S. Postal Service
Southwest Carrier Annex and Lansing Charter Academy. During field studies of Express
Court, motorists were observed using the outbound lane onto Holmes Road as two
travel lanes. In addition to this, some vehicles were observed attempting to turn left from
the right lane.
Pedestrian volumes were negligible at the intersection of Express Court and Holmes
Road. Although low pedestrian volumes are atypical for areas adjacent schools, a
significant majority of the Lansing Charter Academy's students are dropped off and
picked up by parents.
POTENTIAL MITIGATION MEASURES:
There a several potential solutions that may address the issues raised by the USPS and
Lansing Charter Academy and well at those identified during staff field observations.
Express Court
Restriping Express Court with one acceptance lane and two egress lanes (left only and
right only) and installing a lane use sign on Express Court indicating the proper
movements would permit vehicles to queue side-by side, increasing capacity, and aid in
identifying the proper lane use.
Another potential solution could be to prohibit left turns onto Holmes Road during the
school's peak drop off and pick up times. This change, however, would not be
proposed unless significant operational issues are observed following the
reconfiguration of Express Court.
Express Court/Holmes Road intersection
2
August 3, 2006
The U.S. Post Office indicated concerns about drivers choosing insufficient gaps in
traffic when attempting to turn left onto Holmes Road as well as the potential for rear-
end accidents from vehicles slowing to turn onto Express Court. Two potential solutions
to address these issues were evaluated: 1) installation of a traffic signal and 2)
reconfiguring Holmes Road from four to three lanes.
The installation of a traffic signal would provide Express Court with a green phase
allowing motorists to exit onto Holmes Road while traffic on Holmes Road is stopped.
This would reduce the potential for angle accidents but may increase rear-end accidents
as all eastbound and westbound lanes must stop at the signal.
Recent reconfiguration of the intersection by reducing the number of travel lanes from
two in each direction to one in each direction and incorporating a two-way center left
turn lane should increase safety by reducing the number of through lanes a driver must
cross when making a left turn as well as reducing the number of travel lanes a motorist
must view while choosing the proper gap to make a turn. In addition, removing the left
turning traffic from the though lane reduces the potential for rear end collisions.
ANALYSIS OF POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS
Vehicular turning movement, pedestrian, and traffic volume data were collected in
Spring 2010, while school was in session, at the Express Court and Holmes Road
intersection to determine the most appropriate mitigation measure(s).
Data collected indicate daily traffic volumes approaching the intersection on Holmes
Road are 5175 vehicles eastbound and 5500 vehicles westbound and on Express Court
northbound approach volumes are 725 vehicles.
Manual turning movement counts were also collected at the intersection for the morning
(7:30 AM to 8:30 AM) and afternoon (3:00 PM to 3:45 PM) peak periods in April 2010.
These times coincided with the Lansing Charter Academy's drop-off and pick-up times.
The data collected were input into a traffic analysis program to evaluate motorist delay
to vehicles exiting from Express Court onto Holmes Road. The following table
summarizes the vehicular delay for the existing PM traffic conditions. Data shown in the
table are for the afternoon peak hours only. The morning peak indicated significantly
lower levels of delay and is therefore not shown.

The data above indicate a significant degree of delay to motorists. However, field
observations indicated that motorists were using SB Express Court as two lanes.
Therefore, traffic was evaluated with two southbound lanes on Express Court. The
findings are summarized in the following table.
EXISTING VEHICLE DELAY (PM peak - two SB lanes

The data above also indicates that there is a significant delay to motorists exiting onto
Holmes Road from Express Court. Therefore additional analysis with striping
modifications on Holmes Road as one travel lane in each direction and a two-way left
turn lane was conducted. The findings are summarized as follows:
EXISTING VEHICLE DELAY (PM peak - two SB lanes, 3 lanes on Holmes

Holmes Road
Express Court
Southbound Left 27.7 D
Southbound Right 21 C
A review of the peak hour data indicates that restriping both Express Court and Holmes
Road improves the delay to southbound left turning motorists by 81%. Restriping the
intersection would provide a significant benefit.
Based on the traffic generated by Lansing Charter Academy a study was conducted to
determine if a school traffic signal is warranted.
4
August 3, 2006
The traffic signal warrants found in the Michigan Manual of Uniform Traffic Control
Devices (MMUTCD) were used to evaluate the need for a traffic signal at the
intersection of Express Court and Holmes Road.
Section 4B of the (MMUTCD) outlines the requirements of a traffic engineering study to

be used as the basis of installation of traffic control signals. There are eight (8)
warrants used to evaluate the need for a traffic control signal.
Warrant 1, Eight-Hour Vehicular Volume
The Minimum Vehicular Volumes, Condition A, is intended for application at locations

where a large volume of intersecting traffic is the principal reason to consider installing a
traffic control signal.
The Interruption of Continuous Traffic, Condition B, is intended for applications at

locations where Condition A is not satisfied and where the traffic volume on a major
street is so heavy that traffic on a minor intersecting street suffers excessive delay or
conflict in entering or crossing the major street.
It is intended that Warrant 1 be treated as a single warrant. If Condition A is satisfied

then the criteria for Warrant 1 is satisfied and Condition B and the combination of
Condition A and Condition B are not needed. Similarly, if Condition B is satisfied, then
the criteria for Warrant 1 is satisfied and Condition A and the combination of Condition A
and Condition B are not needed.
This Warrant was analyzed using the existing traffic volumes and the applicable table
for each condition (see Appendix). The data were evaluated at the 80% level, which
assumes other countermeasures were implemented and found insufficient. Warrant I
was satisfied for only two of the eight hours required by Condition A or Condition B.
Warrant 2, Four-Hour Vehicular Volume
The need for traffic signal control shall be considered if an engineering study finds that,
for each of any four hours of an average day, the plotted points representing the volume
on the major street (total of both approaches) and the corresponding volume on the
higher volume minor-street approach (one direction only) all fall above the applicable
curve in the figure below for the existing combinations of approach lanes. On the minor
street, the higher volume shall not be required to be on the same approach during each
of these four hours.

The traffic volumes collected at this intersection do not meet Warrant 2, Four-Hour
Vehicular Volume for any hour of an average day at the intersection of Express Court
and Holmes Road.
Warrant #3, Peak Hour

The Peak-hour Warrant is intended for use at a location where traffic conditions are
such that for a minimum of one hour of an average day, the minor street suffers undue
delay when entering or crossing the major street.
The need for traffic signal control shall be considered if an engineering study finds that
the criteria in either of the following two categories are met:
A. If all three of the following conditions exist for the same hour of an average
day:
i. The total stopped time delay experienced by the traffic on one
minor-street approach (one direction only) controlled by a stop sign
equals or exceeds: four (4) vehicle-hours for a one-lane approach;
or five (5) vehicle-hours for a two-lane approach, and
6
August 3, 2006
ii. The volume on the same minor-street approach (one direction only)
equals or exceeds 100 vehicles per hour for one moving lane of
traffic or 150 vehicles per hour for two moving lanes, and
iii. the total entering volume serviced during the hour equals or
exceeds 650 vehicles per hour for intersections with three
approaches or 800 vehicles per hour for intersections with four or
more approaches
Warrant 3A analysis:
The delay for the two-lane minor street (Express Court) approach is 3.3 vehicle hours.
This does not exceed the required five (5) hours of vehicle delay for a two lane
approach. The maximum volume for the minor street was 174 vehicles per hour, which
exceeds the required 150 vehicles for two moving lanes.
Warrant #3, Peak Hour (Continued)

of both approaches) and the corresponding vehicles per hour on the higher-
volume minor-street approach (one direction only) for 1 hour of an average
day falls above the applicable curve in Figure 4C-3 for the existing
combination of approach lanes.

A review of Warrant 3A and the plotted traffic volumes required by Warrant 3B at this
intersection revealed that part i. and no plotted point fell above the graphed line for any
hour of the average day. Warrant 3, peak hour, is not met.
Warrant 4, Pedestrian Volume
The pedestrian activity at the intersection of the Express Court and Holmes Road
intersection was reviewed and was almost non-existent due to the fact that the primary
users expected at this intersection are students. However, most all students are
dropped off and picked up which reflects that the peak hour pedestrian volumes
counted were eleven.
Based on the lack of pedestrian activity at the intersection Warrant 4, Pedestrian

Volume is not satisfied.
Warrant 5, School Crossinq
The School Crossing Warrant does not apply because the intersection does not have
significant pedestrian activity and did not meet the required minimum number of
8
August 3, 2006
students crossing during the peak hour nor is this intersection identified as a school
pedestrian walking route.
Warrant 6, Coordinated Signal System
The Coordinated Signal System Warrant is not applicable. The adjacent signals at
Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard and at Pleasant Grove Road should provide sufficient
platooning of traffic.
Warrant 7, Crash Experience
The need for a Traffic Control Signal shall be considered if an engineering study finds
that all of the following criteria are met:
A. Adequate trial of alternatives with satisfactory observance and enforcement has

failed to reduce the crash frequency; and
B. Five or more reported crashes, of types susceptible to correction by a traffic

control signal, have occurred within a 12-month period, each crash involving personal
injury or property damage apparently exceeding the applicable requirements for a
reportable crash; and
C. For each of any 8 hours of an average day, the vehicles per hour (vph) given in
both the 80 percent columns of condition A in Table 4C-1 (see Section 40.02), or the
vph in both of the 80 percent columns of Condition B in Table 4C-1 exists on the major-
street and the high-volume minor street approach, respectively, to the intersection, or
the volume of pedestrian traffic is not less than 80 percent of the requirements in the
Pedestrian Volume warrant. These major-street and minor-street volumes shall be on
the same approach for during each of the 8 hours.
A review of reported traffic crash data for last five years (2005 - 2009) at the
intersection of Express Court and Holmes Road indicated that there have been a total of
three (3) accidents over the last five years. The crash experience at this intersection
has low number of traffic crash with respect to the traffic volumes. Warrant 7, Crash
Experience, is not met.
Warrant 8, Roadway Network
This warrant applies to an intersection of two major routes. The intersection of Express
Court and Holmes Road does not satisfy this requirement.
RECOMMENDATIONS
9
August 3, 2006
The evaluation conducted by the Transportation and Parking Office indicates that
motorists traveling southbound on Express Court are using this roadway is if two
southbound travel lanes were present. Analysis of this approach indicates that
operation of this approach as two lanes results in a decrease in overall delay for
Express Court traffic of 50 percent when compared to a single lane approach.
Additional analysis indicates the reduction of Holmes Road from four lanes to two
through lanes and a center left turn lane will provide a benefit resulting in a substantial
reduction of approximately 80% in delay to vehicles turning left from Express Court.
Furthermore, reducing the number of lanes on Holmes Road would reduce the potential
for accidents. Evaluation of the operational characteristics of the intersection indicates
that signalization is not warranted at this time.
The Transportation section of the Engineering Division recommends striping Express

Court to provide southbound left and right turn lanes and installing a lane-use-sign to
enhance driver awareness of the movements allowed in each lane.

PARKING REGULATION AND STREET NAME CHANGE:

CITY MARKET DRIVE AND MUSEUM DRIVE
On July 21, 2003 the Lansing City Council passed Resolution #0369 authorizing the
enforcement of parking restrictions along Museum Drive. Enforcement was determined to begin
at the intersection of Cedar Street and continue in a southern direction under Michigan Avenue
to terminate at the southern most curb of the dead end. Based on this resolution Traffic Control
Order 03-059 was signed and filed with the City Clerk's Office allowing enforcement of the
street.
During the 2009 construction of the new City Market, the Public Service Department issued a
request to the Transportation and Parking Office to split the street and rename the portion of
Museum Drive from Cedar Street to Michigan Avenue to City Market. In researching this
request it was determined that the portion of the street between the northern most face of the
Lansing Center to the northern right-of-way of Michigan Avenue was a private street under the
jurisdiction of the Lansing Entertainment and Public Facilities Authority (LEPFA) as owners or
the Lansing Center.
IMPLEMENTATION
Based on the request to rename the northern portion of the street, the Transportation Section
implemented the following modifications.
Modifications (see map):

A. The portion of the street from the intersection of Cedar Street to the northern most
building face at 333 E. Michigan Avenue (Lansing Center) is to be named City Market
Drive.
B. On the south / west side of City Market Drive parking shall be prohibited except for
vehicles loading and unloading for a period not to exceed ten (10) minutes from 325 feet
south / west of Cedar Street to 425 feet south / west of Cedar Street
C. The portion of the street from the northern most face of 333 Michigan Avenue (Lansing
Center) to the northern right-of-way extent of Michigan Avenue will remain a private road
under the authority of LEPFA.
D. The portion of the street from the intersection of Michigan Avenue to the southern dead
end is to remain designated as Museum Drive.
City of Lansing crews removed and replaced all conflicting signs including street name,
permissible parking, and restricted parking signs.
The Transportation Section recommends approval of the modifications as outlined above.

Dear Mr. Swope:
Comcast is continuing to make enhancements to our cable network and will be providing customers
with additional digital channels and choices in digital equipment. We are notifying our customers who
have subscribed to our expanded basic package that as of February 1, 2010, this package will receive
additional digital channels and be renamed the Digital Starter package at no additional cost.
The Digital Starter package includes a digital receiver (cable box) and remote or CableCARD for the
primary W. In addition, the Digital Starter package includes additional programming like Style, CSPAN3,
Sprout, Hallmark Movie channel, History International, Biography and Bloomberg W. More details on
the Digital Starter package are available online at www.comcast.com/channellineup.
No action is required of our customers at this time. However, letters are being sent to inform customers
of options they have in selecting digital equipment. Each Digital Starter customer gets up to 3 pieces of
free digital equipment: one with the package and up to two additional digital adapters with our digital
network enhancement initiative. For all additional outlets, a Digital Starter customer can now choose
between a fully function 2-way digital receiver (cable box) at $7.95 a month, or a one-way digital
adapter at $1.99 a month.
Digital adapter equipment, known as DTAs, are small one-way devices that will allow customers to not
only continue viewing the channels they subscribed to prior to our digital network enhancement, but
also to view the additional channels made possible by the change to the Digital Starter package. Because
the DTA is one-way, customers will not be able to access OnDemand programming or the interactive
guide.
Attached are the customer notifications that have been customized to address the channel additions,
package name change and digital equipment options.
Please don't hesitate to contact me at 517-334-5686 or at John_Gardner@cable.comcast.com with any

questions you might have.
Sincerely,
John P. Gardner

Mayor in January, 2006. Please include this letter and the copy of my Charter violation letter as items for next

Thank you for your cooperation in these matters. It is greatly appreciated.

Dear Brigham:
Article 3 (Legislative Branch), Chapter 4 (Internal and External Audits), Section 3-404.1 (External Audit)
states: "An independent audit shall be made of all accounts of the City government, including the Board of
Water and Light, at the close of each fiscal year, and shall be completed by October 15 th . Special independent
audits may be made at any time that the Council may designate. All such audits shall be made by a Certified
Public Accountant designated by the Council. The results of each audit shall be made public in the manner that
the Council determines and copies thereof shall be placed in the office of the City Clerk for public inspection."
The audit or Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the Fiscal Year that ended on June 30, 2010 finally
appears on today's agenda (January 6, 2011) as item XV.1.a under "Reports from City Officers, Boards and
Commissions." Therefore, the aforementioned section of the City Charter has once again been violated
directly by the City Council and indirectly by Mayor Virg Bernero and Finance Director Jerry Ambrose.
According to Article 1 (General), Chapter 5 (Penalties), Section 1-501 (Penalties for Violation of Charter):
"Any person found guilty of an act constituting a violation of this Charter may be punished by a fine not
exceeding five hundred dollars ($500.00) or by imprisonment for not to exceed 90 days, or both...."
This is the 29th City Charter Violation I have filed since Virg took office in January, 2006. We, the People of
Lansing, demand justice and expect you to do your job as City Attorney for once in your life by enforcing the
City Charter, Lansing's Constitution.
Sincerely,
