Welcome to SEMCOG's Think Regional/Act Local blog! SEMCOG is the only organization in Southeast Michigan that brings together all governments to solve regional challenges and enhance the quality of life for the seven-county regions 4.7 million residents. With this regional perspective in mind, we work with member local governments to sustain our regions reputation as a great place to work, play, and do business.

 

Our panel of SEMCOG staff bloggers will post daily to this blog, discussing SEMCOG's data, federal and state legislative issues, and environmental and fiscal sustainability best practices for local governments all with the goal of creating a successful future for the region.

SEMCOG at Wyandotte Art Fair…please visit us!

(Public outreach, Public transportation) Permanent link

July 12, 2012 - The 51st Wyandotte Street Art Fair is going on now on the historic streets of that community. SEMCOG is there to talk to everyone about our public outreach programs – Ozone Action, Ours to Protect, and the MiRideshare carpool and vanpool matching program. We’ll also be distributing information on SEMCOG’s Regional Transportation Plan. The public engagement process begins now and we need your input. If you can’t make it to the fair, look for us throughout the region this summer and fall, and follow the process at www.semcog.org/TransportationStrategy.aspx
