Members of the Wayne-Westland
Community Schools Board of Education
have agreed to a $5,000 fee for the devel-
opment of a new set of policies for the
district. Ongoing updates will cost the
district $1,500 annually.
The new policies and bylaws will be
compiled by attorneys from the law firm
of Lusk and Albertson after a systematic
reviewof all current district policies.
Kevin Sutton, an attorney from Lusk
and Albertson, told the board members
at a meeting earlier this month that the
new documents would encompass all
the policies required by federal and
state law and be specific to the Wayne
Westlanddistrict. He said it is difficult to
go through a year without updating poli-
cies and that most districts have a three-
ring binder with policies from past
decades that haven't been looked at
since inclusion in the binder.
He said that the law firm representa-
tives would review the policies and
bylaws currently in place and consult
with school board members about
preparing a streamlined packet specific
to Wayne Westland schools. He said that
the preparation would include input
from and contact with the policy com-
mittee appointed by the board mem-
bers.
Sutton said the evaluation and prepa-
ration of new policies would be “exten-
sive” and take a long time to complete.
Board members agreed to fund the
review and development by a unani-
mous vote.
Members of the Plymouth-
Canton Community Schools
Board of Education voted 5-2
last week to close both Allen
Elementary School and the
Tanger Center.
The board members also
approved a plan to repurpose
Gallimore Elementary School
in Canton Township to house
the elementary-level Talented
And Gifted (TAG) program as
part of a redistricting effort.
The closings and change in
use were part of a plan the
boardmembers adopted in light
of declining enrollment in the
district and the opening of a
new middle school in Canton,
where, studies show, themajori-
ty of middle school students
live.
The boundaries for that new
school building were also
adopted by a vote of the board.
Currently, TAG students attend
either Miller or Dodson ele-
mentary school.
The district plans to close
Central Middle School in down-
town Plymouth and move stu-
dents to various other schools to
evenly distribute classloads at
all district buildings.
The new plan met with
strong criticism from parents of
Allen students who had previ-
ously expressed their discon-
tent with the planned closing at
board meetings. Parents cited
the superior academic perform-
ance of Allen students and
urged the board members to
reconsider the decision to close
the school.
The board members, howev-
er, opted to follow the recom-
mendation of the administra-
tion and the steering commit-
tee.
Buy Nearby Guy, the cam-
paign mascot of the Michigan
Retailers Association, present-
ed Linda Millard of Plymouth
with a $500 check on Friday,
Oct. 17. Millard was selected in
a random drawing from among
the shoppers who entered the
contest by posting photos of
themselves buying nearby on
Get Caught Blue-Handed Day -
Saturday, Oct. 4. Millard - with
help fromher daughter, Lauren,
posted a photo of herself mak-
ing purchases at Gigi's Mode on
the Buy Nearby Facebook page.
The presentation took place
outside Gigi's Mode, a women's
boutique located in downtown
Plymouth that specializes in
clothing, shoes, jewelry and
gifts.
Millard said she makes it a
practice to shop at the unique
stores inher community.
"I love the small-town atmos-
phere of downtown Plymouth,"
she said. "I'm a firm believer in
buying nearby. It's important to
our community and our state."
Gigi's Mode is owned by
Beverly Whitby and her daugh-
ter, Amanda Britcher. They
opened their boutique - which
carries the tagline "It's a girl
thing" - inMay 2004.
"I love the [Buy Nearby] cam-
paign," Whitby said. "I think it's
important to promote the retail
industry and it's important to
know the story behind what you
buy."
Whitby participated in Get
Caught Blue-Handed Day by
offering 10 percent off all items
in her store that are made in
Michigan. She also encouraged
Millard and other customers to
post photos and qualify for the
shopping spree.
President and CEO of
Michigan Retailers Association
James P. Hallan praised
Millard, Gigi's Mode and the
Plymouth Community Chamber
of Commerce for helping make
the special day a success.
"We're delighted our shop-
ping spree winner is someone
who supports the Buy Nearby
campaign and practices 'getting
caught' shopping at nearby
retailers," Hallan said. "We all
winwhenweBuyNearby."
The retailers group launched
the year-round Buy Nearby
campaign in 2013 to encourage
Michigan residents to have fun
shopping and support their
communities by buying from
retail businesses in Michigan.
The campaign designates the
first Saturday in October as Get
Caught Blue-Handed Day to
focus greater retailer, shopper
and news media attention on
the campaign.
Economic research conduct-
ed for MRA shows that
Michigan's economy would
increase by $9 billion and add
nearly 75,000 jobs if all shop-
pers who make buys from
"remote sellers" - mostly online-
only merchants outside the
state - switched their purchases
toMichiganbusinesses.
Even if shoppers switched
only one in 10 of their remote
purchases, the state economy
would see a gain of $900 million
andnearly 7,500 jobs.
In the money
The 59th Plymouth Rotary Barbeque generated nearly $50,000 to be used by the
Rotary Foundation for community programs and grants. Last week, members of
the sponsorship committee for the event presented the foundation with a check
for $24,379 and the barbeque committee awarded the group $25,000, all to be
used for programs to benefit the Plymouth community. Celebrating the check
presentations were: Mike Muma, left, Bill Ventola, Mike Sullivan, Kent Early and
Bill Weber. Ventola and Randy Overly proudly displayed the sponsorship com-
mittee contribution check, above.
Buy Nearby Guy presents Linda Millard of Plymouth a $500 check,
her prize in the Get Caught Blue Handed Day raffle. Millard posted a
photo of herself shopping at Gigi's Mode and owners Beverly Whitby
and Amanda Britcher helped celebrate her win.
