Warren City Council candidates prep for the November election

BY GENA JOHNSON gjohnson@candgnews.com

WARREN — The Warren City Council candidates that made it past the Aug. 8 primary have shared their thoughts about winning and what is next for them as they prepare for the November election.

Warren City Council District 1 will make history in November by electing the first Black City Council member. Melody Magee came in first with 953 votes which was nearly 25% of the votes cast in the primary.

Charles Perry followed with 757 votes (19.7%). Both candidates are African American.

Magee is excited about this new era in Warren.

“It means that Warren is ready for a change. Warren is recognizing that we do need diversity in our political leadership at our City Hall,” said Magee.

Magee said she has received calls about the election from national media outlets, local and national politicians, former and current Warren residents, and friends and family members.

“Everybody is excited. I received calls from California, Ohio, Washington, D.C. They are saying, ‘Melody, we are watching. We want this for you.’ But we want to make history because of things that we have experienced, especially as Black people, coming across Eight Mile (Road into Warren) and some (false) things that were done,” Magee said. “They (Warren voters) want the change. They believe we should have people that look like us in Warren City Hall. So, I am very excited about it.”

About the primary, Perry said, “It’s an honor to be able to win the Photo by Patricia O’Blenes

Warren Garden Club blazes new trails

BY GENA JOHNSON gjohnson@candgnews.com

WARREN — The Warren Garden Club’s garden walk saw a record turnout this year, as the club incorporated historic buildings and historic homes on the walk for the first time, combined with the traditional viewing of gardens at the July 23 event.

“We had a really great turnout. We had over 200 people,” said Carole Wiseman, a member of the Warren Garden Club. “We doubled (our attendance).”

The Warren Garden Club is a very small club compared to others in the area, according to Wiseman.

The club returned to its roots by having the 2023 garden walk in the Village of Warren where the inaugural walk started.

The oldest house on this year’s garden walk is on the historic site of the Gillett-Beer farm.

MACOMB COUNTY — As summer workouts come to a close, southern Macomb County readies for another exciting football season. Here are previews for all teams in the C & G Newspapers coverage area.

more linebacker Avery Taylor and junior defensive lineman David Smith will lead the defensive unit.

Last season’s record: 6-3.

League: Macomb Area Conference Bronze Division.

First game: vs. Melvindale High, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Taking a major step in the right direction, Center Line football is playing with confidence as it heads into the 2023 season.

The Panthers will hand the offensive keys to four-year varsity quarterback Ian Klekotka this season as the offensive unit looks to continue its success from last year.

Center Line coach Ajani Ali said Klekotka’s knowledge of the game has him poised for a successful season.

“He knows how to facilitate the offense — he knows where to put the ball at and just how to operate everything,” Ali said.

Junior wide receiver Elijah Williford will be Klekotka’s No. 1 target this season while sopho-

Last season’s record: 6-4.

League: Macomb Area Conference Gold Division.

First game: at Auburn Hills Avondale High, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Tallying its highest win total since 2016, Cousino was dominant in league play as the team averaged 27 points per game and allowed just over 15 points per game in MAC-Gold matchups.

Senior running back Dequawn Woodruff will look to lead the offense this season as Cousino attempts to make its first back-to-back playoff appearances since 2006-2007.

Last season’s record: 13-1.

League: Catholic League Central Division.

First game: at Davison High (Flint Atwood Stadium), 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Winning is a tradition unlike any other at De La Salle, and the program has done a lot of it recently with five state championships since 2014, including back-to-back wins in 2017-2018 and now 2021-2022.

MCC opens Skilled Trades and Advanced Technology Center WARREN — Several days before the Macomb Community College 2023 fall semester began, officials unveiled the new Skilled Trades and Advanced Technology Center on the college’s South Campus.

On Aug. 11, about 200 people gathered for the grand opening of the $45 million, 130,000-square-foot facility, located in the former R, S and T buildings. The center will offer programs designed to prepare students for high-demand careers in advanced manufacturing, technology and the skilled trades. The new center optimizes the environmental infrastructure for teaching and learning that embodies the current impact of Industry 4.0, or smart manufacturing processes that make up the fourth industrial revolution.

are located near each other to mimic modern industry. The classrooms were built to encourage gathering and engagement among the students. The building also reflects current industrial settings where poorly lit, closed-in areas have been replaced by bright spaces with windows and natural light.

Nearly $15 million of the total project cost was a capital outlay appropriation from the state of Michigan, with the remaining approximately $30 million covered by the college’s capital projects fund. According to MCC President James Sawyer, the new Skilled Trades and Advanced Technology Center is the college’s largest renovation project to date.

“While there is an already acute demand for highly skilled employees in manufacturing, technology and the skilled trades, job openings in these sectors are expected to continue to increase,” a college press release stated. “In Macomb County over the next five years, anticipated growth spans a minimum of 1% for automated systems and robotics to 14% for 3-D modeling and design technology, with median annual earnings ranging from the mid $40,000 to low $80,000.”

A number of programs will be housed in the building including apprenticeships, computerized numerical control machining, drafting, computer-aided design, electronics and fluid power technology. Land surveying, media and communication arts, mechatronics, product development, robotics and welding also will be available.

“Civility” and “leadership” are what Dimas said he would bring to the mayor’s office.

“Bring some strong leadership to our community, to get it back on track. Because I think it has been derailed the last four years,” said Dimas. “It has been a setback. So I want to work together with the new council, and have better civility in government.”

This echoes what Dimas said voters want to see.

WARREN — George L. Dimas and Lori M. Stone were the two top vote-getters in Warren’s Aug. 8 mayoral primary election, setting up a November contest without an incumbent mayor for the first time in 16 years.

Dimas is an appointee of current Warren Mayor James Fouts, serving as the city’s human resources director. He previously served 32 years on the City Council from 1971 to 2003.

Stone, a career educator, is currently a state representative for Michigan’s 13th House District. She’s now serving her third two-year term and was first elected in 2018.

According to the election results posted by the office of Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini, Dimas received 6,200 votes, or 33.7% of the total votes cast. Stone came in second with 5,093 (27.7%).

Buffa, Xiong advance in Warren clerk race

BY GENA JOHNSON gjohnson@candgnews.com

WARREN — Incumbent Warren City Clerk Sonja Buffa and Macomb County Commissioner Mai Xiong were the top two finishers in the Aug. 8 primary election among three candidates vying to become the city’s clerk for the next four years.

They will now move on to the general election Nov. 7.

Buffa, the highest voter-getter, received 8,094 votes or 45% of the votes cast. Xiong received 5,963 votes (33.1%). Vince Berdy came in third with 3,935 votes (21.9%) and is now out of contention. The results were posted by the office of Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini.

“I proudly accept the endorsement of our residents and will continue working diligently administering elections,” said Buffa, who is seeking her second four-year term as Warren’s city clerk. “I must also acknowledge my hardworking office staff and exemplary group of precinct workers who are both dedicated and committed to elections.”

Buffa said if reelected, her plans include immediately working to prepare for the U.S. presidential preference primary election in

early 2024.

Xiong is in her second two-year term as a county commissioner representing District 11, which includes part of the city of Warren.

“It means so much because we worked extremely hard,” Xiong said. “The residents of Warren have continued to elect me. They want someone that can represent them and be a voice for them.”

If elected city clerk, Xiong said she would work to make voting easier.

“As clerk, I want to make it as easy for anyone to be able to vote. So, if that means removing barriers, whether that’s language, transportation, or those that have disabilities and seniors,” Xiong said.

Students find academic, enrichment programs this summer

BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com

WARREN — The cheers heard inside the Lincoln Middle School gymnasium Aug. 2 were from the audience of parents and students showing their appreciation for the dance show on stage.

For about 15 minutes, a number of elementary school students in the Van Dyke summer school program performed a dance routine of tap and hip-hop numbers that entertained the crowd.

There were two groups of students. Group No. 1 danced to the songs “Golden Hour” and “Dance Monkey.” Group No. 2’s fancy footwork was to the tuneS of “Dynamite” and “God’s Plan.”

“We’re so excited,” teacher Hannah Rivera said at the start of the show. “We’ve been working very hard.”

The dance class was among many academic and enrichment activities the district offered in summer school, coordinated by several staff members, including Joann Iras, the K-12 turnaround director. Students at all grade levels participated in art, physical education, cooking, academics and more. Some of the Lincoln High School students were able to make up lost credits in the credit recovery program.

Free busing was offered. Classes were held at Lincoln Elementary School and Lincoln Middle School Mondays through Thursdays from June 26 through Aug. 3. Career technical education classes also were held at the Mark A. Kedzior Center, located on the Lincoln High School grounds.

Each day began at 8:15 a.m. with free breakfast.

The morning “Academic Scholar Support” classes ran from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and gave students the chance to review skills learned during the school year.

A 30-minute lunch was provided at no cost, and the STEM enrichment classes that specialize in science, technology, engineering and math were held from noon to 2:30 p.m. Students had to be enrolled in the morning academic classes in order to participate in the enrichment courses. According to Iras, about twothirds of the students stayed for the afternoon sessions.

Monika Davies, Dawn Rahn and John Davis were among the teachers who worked with the elementary students. One highlight included the art projects the students created with papier-mache, clay,

WEDNESDAY 8/23 OLDIES NIGHT First Pitch 7:05 PM Gates Open 6:00 PM

paint, photography and drawings. At times, the older students worked with the younger kids. The colorful art pieces were displayed.

“We just wanted them to use as much media as we could,” Rahn said. “They loved it. They were messy. They did really well.”

“We wanted them to be creative and to just have fun,” Davies said. “There is no one right way to do (art.)”

Also this summer, students in third through sixth grade opened up their hearts doing for others in the community service group under the guidance of teacher Erin Mareel. One job was helping to set up the area where the art projects were displayed. The community service group also made placemats for veterans and started a recycling program at the school.

“We made cards for D & D Assisted Living in Warren, and we went on a picnic with them,” Mareel said. “We did flyers and collected donations for the Michigan Anti-Cruelty Society shelter in Detroit, cleaned up the school grounds and cleaned up Wiegand Park on Toepfer Road.”

Arthur Treusch was the secondary enrichment coordinator. One popular subject for the middle school students was looking at how the media has changed over the years.

“We also had a health and wellness class, which was designed to keep the kids active over the summer.

That was run by a few of our coaches,” Treusch said.

“They talked about physical, mental and spiritual health. That was very popular with a lot of the athletes that know they’re going to be on the football team or the basketball team in the fall.”

In some cases, students also learned how to do minor car repairs and how to fix lawn mower engines, among other career technical education projects.

“The kids that come to the enrichment program, they want to be here. We really have kids that are coming because they want to learn,” Treusch said. “There are teachers that have had an impact on them, and they want to continue to interact with them throughout the summer. It’s a whole different vibe. I like that we can give the kids the opportunity to do something constructive in the summer.”

from page 3A

Looking to hoist a third straight title, the Pilots will be without an array of all-state talent from last season including University of Cincinnati quarterback Brady Drogosh.

But with the culture De La Salle has in place, coach Dan Rohn said his group is retooled and ready to make another run at it.

“It just has to do with our process,” Rohn said. “I had a high school basketball coach come to our practice the other day, and he’s had a lot of success himself, but he just wanted to see what we were doing. He watched us in the weight room and he said, ‘I’ve never seen a group of kids move around the weight room and do things so routinely, like it’s expected.’”

De La Salle’s offense will rely on senior running back Rhett Roeser to handle the bulk of the carries while junior running back Michael Lopez will also see some touches.

Sophomore wide receiver Damion King leads a highly touted wide receiving room alongside junior Phoenix Glassnor and Briheem Rahbi, while senior Caden Campbell returns at the tight end position.

Only a sophomore, King is a speedster who is poised to make a name for himself in 2023.

“There are kids that it just comes natural to and they can do things at a different level, and Damion King is one of those kids,” Rohn said. “You don’t get to coach very many of those kids often. We’ve had a lot of coaches on campus, and when we had our college day, and I think we had 70 coaches, Damion King striked the eye of all of them. He’s so fluid and so natural. Everything is effortless.”

Warren Fitzgerald

Last season’s record: 2-7.

League: Macomb Area Conference Gold Division.

First game: vs. Warren Mott, 7 p.m.

Aug. 24.

Defense was a massive struggle for Fitzgerald in 2022, and it’ll be the primary focus as coach JuWan Shakespear and his squad enter the 2023 season.

Allowing just over 38 points per game last season, including three games of 50 points or more, Fitzgerald will look to senior linebacker J’len Anderson to anchor the defense this season.

Warren Lincoln

Last season’s record: 2-6.

League: Macomb Area Conference Bronze Division.

First game: vs. Mount Clemens High,

7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Lincoln is a team to keep an eye on this season largely due to the fact that its offense and defense both showed flashes of efficiency last year.

Senior quarterback Terrance Lombard returns to lead the offensive unit, while junior wide receivers Jeremiah Hutson and Aaron Logan lead the receiving core. Senior running back Davis Rogers is expected to handle the bulk of the carries this season.

“You’ll see another level of efficiency on the offensive side of the ball,” Lincoln coach Darrius Alexander said. “You’re going to see a lot of consistency and a lot of guys making plays.”

Warren Mott

Last season’s record: 5-5.

League: Macomb Area Conference Blue Division.

First game: at Warren Fitzgerald High, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Last season’s playoff appearance was a major step in the right direction for Mott after snapping its 10-year playoff streak in 2021.

While Mott saw a first-round exit, the team is looking to show that it is headed in the right direction this season behind senior WR/CB Sopuruchi Ojinnaka, junior WR/ CB Wes Gilmore, senior RB/DE John Grant and senior RB/LB N’Marian Gilbert.

Mott coach Tom Milanov said he expects his team to benefit from multiple qualities this season.

“Team speed is definitely a benefit, and we definitely have good camaraderie and a team that likes each other,” Milanov said.

“That can make a world of a difference.”

Mott hasn’t lost a season opener since the 2011-12 season.

Warren Woods Tower

Last season’s record: 2-7.

League: Macomb Area Conference Gold Division.

First game: at St. Clair Shores Lakeview High, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

For Tower, it’s all about getting the offense and defense on the same page.

Both units showed flashes of efficiency in 2022, but neither seemed to click when Tower needed them most.

Tower will have an early test again as it opens up against St. Clair Shores Lakeview, who blanked Tower 35-0 last season.

Eastpointe

Last season’s record: 0-9.

League: Macomb Area Conference Gold Division.

First game: at Dearborn Heights Crestwood, 7 p.m. Aug 25.

There’s only room for improvement for the Shamrocks, and they’re looking to show a lot of it this season behind an array of offensive weapons.

Senior quarterback Donavan Phillips will command the offense this season with an abundance of wide receiver help in senior Rickey Crudup, senior Tyler Wiley Jones, junior Jajuan Stewart and sophomore Terron Bush.

Only his first year on varsity, Eastpointe coach Donavon Hall said Phillips is poised for a breakout season under center.

“He’s got all the tools man,” Hall said.

“He can make every throw and make every read. He’s just that kind of kid. I think he’s going to be awesome for us.”

Senior RB/MLB Jordan Brooks will be a key impact player this season while junior Dreshawn Morris is expected to anchor the

defensive line.

Harper Woods

Last season’s record: 3-6.

League: Oakland Activities Association White Division.

First game: at Stoney Creek High, 7 p.m.

Aug. 24.

Harper Woods has all the talent to be successful, but it was an adjustment last year playing an OAA-White schedule.

Heading into 2023, Harper Woods returns senior quarterback Stephone Buford Jr., senior wide receiver Keyontae Wilson, and all-region honorees and seniors Willie Powell (RB/LB) and Jessten Johnson (OL).

University of Michigan commit and senior Jacob Oden (DB), junior Bryant Weatherspoon (DE) and Powell will anchor See FOOTBALL on page 9A

Roseville

Last season’s record: 8-3.

League: Macomb Area Conference White Division.

First game: at Bloomfield Hills Brother Rice High (at Lawrence Technological University), 7 p.m. Aug 24.

Earning a third straight playoff appearance for the first time since 2011, coach Vernard Snowden has his guys playing inspired football.

Roseville will have a massive void to fill with the departure of WR/CB Amare Snowden to the University of Wisconsin, but there’s still a healthy amount of talent returning to make another run at the playoffs.

Senior running back BJ Weathersby and junior wide receiver Eric Slater will look to lead the offensive unit while seniors Huston Eubank (LB), Corey Cobb Jr. (LB), Anthony Scott (LB), and Elijah Parker (DB) and juniors Desmond Straughton (DB) and Mike Chude (DL) will anchor the defense.

Senior offensive lineman and all-region honoree William Woodard will lead the offensive line.

St. Clair Shores Lakeview

Last season’s record: 7-4.

League: Macomb Area Conference White Division.

First game: vs. Warren Woods Tower High, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Lakeview’s five straight playoff appearances are already historic for the football program, but now Lakeview is looking to take the next step when they reach the playoffs.

It’ll be a difficult task this season after Lakeview graduated a large amount of its offense — 31 of the team’s 33 touchdowns last season to be exact — but coach Pat Threet said the team’s culture speaks for itself with the new players stepping up.

“We’ve got a recipe for success and it’s not about the offense or defense we run,” Threet said. “My belief is faith, family and football. We talk to our coaches about leading these guys the way you’d lead your own son. Make them accountable, be tough on them, but show them love. That’s really what we’re about, and I think that’s really helped us have a great culture.”

On the offensive end, junior Bobby Clark II (OL), senior Malik Mason (OL)

and sophomore John Kline (OL) lead the offensive line while senior Gary Winston (RB/ MLB), junior Aidan Daniels (RB/TE) and junior Eric Simmons lead the running back corps.

Defensively, Lakeview is expected to be strong once again after earning four shutout wins in 2022 and allowing just over 19 points per game.

Senior David Osagiede (DE), senior Tucker Weddle (LB), senior Keonte Woolf (DB), senior Corion Lattimore (DB) and junior Terrell McCurdy lead the Huskies’ defensive unit.

St. Clair Shores Lake Shore

Last season’s record: 4-5.

League: Macomb Area Conference Gold Division.

First game: at Sault Ste. Marie, 7 p.m.

Aug. 25.

Building off a near winning season in 2022, Lake Shore is looking to rely on its returning players to lead the way this season.

Junior quarterback Jordan Alston will command the huddle this season with junior Ja’Sean Dean (WR) and junior James Taylor Jr. (TE) leading the pass-catching group.

Alston, who started last year as a sophomore, is looking to progress after an efficient year last season.

“He’s a pure pocket passer,” Lake Shore coach Marcus Cribbs said. “Last year, he had some growing pains, but he’s been coming along really well.”

Returning all-region defensive lineman James Brown (Sr.) and senior defensive lineman Keith Reeves are expected to anchor the defense.

St. Clair Shores South Lake

Last season’s record: 6-4.

League: Macomb Area Conference Silver Division.

First game: vs. Macomb Lutheran North, 7 p.m. Aug. 24.

Having extended its playoff appearance streak to three, South Lake appears to be in a groove on the offensive side of the ball, and the team is hoping that the defense follows suit in 2023.

In 2022, South Lake averaged just over 30 points per game while allowing just under 25 points per game.

The Cavaliers will have an early test this season when they match up against Lutheran North in the opener. Lutheran North took South Lake to the wire last season in a 46-40 thriller that South Lake won.

The new Macomb Community College Skilled Trades and Advanced Technology Center on the college’s South Campus in Warren is now open.

MCC from page 4A

industry keeps our programs in step with the evolution of how business and industry works.

“With the renovation, we’re creating a teaching and learning environment optimized for preparing our students for successful and smooth transition to high demand manufacturing, technology and skilled trades jobs,” Sawyer said. “We’re excited about the possibilities of correcting negative old school, outdated notions about what manufacturing and industrial workplaces look like. We’re looking forward to leveraging Macomb’s Skilled Trades and Advanced Technology Center to introduce middle and high school and their parents to a modern industry environment and the wealth of opportunities in these great careers.”

Sawyer said the credentials skilled trades students will earn are a “gateway to higher level degrees and jobs.” That includes moving from a certificate to an associate degree at Macomb, or continuing to earn a bachelor’s degree through one of Macomb’s university partners.

Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II also addressed the crowd.

“It really is exciting to be here back on the campus of Macomb Community College. I do think Macomb has a particular identity that this project really illustrates,” Gilchrist said. “The state of Michigan is proud to be a partner in bringing something like this to fruition. The reason we are so invested is because we recognize that everyone who comes through this expanded and stronger and more vibrant facility, they’ll learn something about themselves.

“You come to learn a trade, you come to learn a particular set of techniques or a particular set of skills to get specific certifications that are very important to you and the community,” Gilchrist said. “What you will learn is that if you can imagine some-

thing and you can create something, that you can create anything. The students that walk through these halls, who use these machines, who learn from these very talented, skilled and experienced instructors, these are the kind of people who inspire the creative minds of Macomb and Michigan.

“When we invest in that, we are not only investing in the present vitality of this institution, but the future vitality of our economy,” Gilchrist said. “This was designed for Industry 4.0. I know this is the team that can make that happen.”

Congressman John James, R-Shelby Township, presented a certificate to Sawyer to recognize the completion of the renovated facility.

“I want to congratulate the college on their grand opening of the tech center. It’s wonderful to be here taking a big step toward building the workforce of the future,” James said.

James, a veteran who served in Iraq, alluded to the importance of providing skilled trades training to military veterans.

“The veterans’ entry into apprenticeship is just one way we can integrate with Macomb Community College and get our veterans back into our workforce,” James said. “Not just a profession, but a purpose to help reduce veterans suicide and increase our ability to serve and grow our nation and our economy.”

Macomb Community College Board of Trustees Chair Katherine Lorenzo and Macomb County Executive Mark Hackel also spoke during the event. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed a reception and toured the new building, which included classroom demonstrations.

The project’s architects were Hobbs+Black Architects, based in Ann Arbor. Barton Marlow, which has several offices including Detroit and Southfield, was the construction manager.

At press time, the new semester was scheduled to begin Aug. 21.

Dr. Wood recently returned to his Warren hometown and is now accepting new patients at Cornerstone Roseville Family Practice.

“I grew up two blocks from here,” said the Brian Wood, D.O. 2003 graduate of Warren Woods Tower High School. “So, I understand the personality of the local people, and I feel this area needs a young doctor like myself who is going to stick around for the long haul. Family practice is the only specialty where you can treat people of all ages, from birth through geriatrics, get to know entire families and, essentially, become a fixture of the community.”

Dr. Wood, who is also a staff physician at Ascension Macomb-Oakland and Beaumont hospitals, offers a broad spectrum of medical care including preventative medicine, primary care, immunizations, pap smears and management of chronic illnesses. The scope of care at the practice also includes minor office procedures including lesion, mole and skin tag removal, excisional biopsies, joint injection, stitches, minor injury treatments, EKGs, high blood pressure management, Medicare wellness visits and electronic prescribing services. As a doctor of osteopathic manipulative medicine, Dr. Wood also provides muscle and skeletal manipulation to help with ailments such as low back pain, migraines and musculoskeletal disorders.

“The way I practice medicine is a little bit different,” he said. “My goal is to treat the whole patient, so I try to set aside enough time to manage all of their concerns at each and every visit.”

Dr. Wood books his appointments in 20- to 30-minute increments to allow himself enough time to get an understanding of how a patient’s medical problems are affecting their interpersonal relationships, work-life balance and family life.

Treatment for mental health (e.g., depression, anxiety, sleeping disorders and other issues) as well as endocrine disorders (e.g., thyroid disease and diabetes), heart disease, COPD, smoking cessation, obesity and weight management counseling is also provided.

Cornerstone has early morning appointments and late appointments on Thursdays. “We also offer telehealth appointments, which are useful for people who might want to hop on a call during their lunch break instead of taking time off work,” he said.

Dr. Wood enjoys getting to know his patients, seeing their faces, hearing about their lives, and sharing stories about his own family. “I hope to be taking care of my patients for 25 to 30 years, utilizing my knowledge in medicine to keep them healthy and living fulfilled lives,” he said.

Cornerstone Roseville Family Practice is located at 28295 Schoenherr Road, Suite C, in Warren.

“They wanted to see some civility in (the) government. They were upset with all of the fighting and all of the lawsuits. They were upset with the confrontation between the administration and the council,” Dimas said. “They wanted to see their government working toward the betterment of their community. They would like to see the parks improved.”

Attempts to reach Stone on Aug. 9 were unsuccessful at the time of publishing.

She also talked about “transparency.”

“I plan to bring transparency in the clerk’s office and making sure we include everyone in the decision making process,” Xiong said.

City treasurer post uncontested in November

However, according to her candidate profile in the Warren Weekly’s 2023 primary election voter guide, Stone identified her top goals as, “Improving trust in local government through transparency, accountability, communication, and including residents’ voices in decision making.”

In her submitted profile, Stone stated, “I commit to working together with the City Council, local leaders and residents in order to improve the quality of life for everyone.”

She further identified her goals as “Securing federal and state grant dollars that Warren has failed to apply for in order to fund projects like park improvements, senior services, also appear on the ballot in November, where two-term incumbent Lorie Barnwell is running uncontested for a third and final term.

In a previous interview, Barnwell said, “I feel very honored to run unopposed and be set up for my third term. It humbles me because it obviously shows Warren residents are happy with the job that my office is doing.”

“People were excited to see these homes.

Most people, I think, didn’t even know there was a Warren Village,” Wiseman said.

Some of the homes on the walk were among the oldest in the Village. This included the Gillett house, an 1838 farmhouse originally owned by the Gillett family, who settled in Warren in the 1830s. The land was a quarter-mile-square lot where the Gilletts first built a barn, then a log cabin, then the house.

“And I am sure it is one of the oldest continuously lived in houses in Warren,” said Wiseman. “There is a barn on the property, which is even older than the house.”

The property is owned by Arthur and Mary Beer. Arthur, who grew up in the house with his parents, Arthur and Agnes Beer, continued to live there after he married and had children. It was just five or six years ago that they moved a few doors down to a ranch-style home, according to Wiseman.

The Beer family’s roots go deep in Warren. Agnes E. Beer Junior High School was named after Arthur’s mother in 1969.

The Warren Union Cemetery was also on the walk. More than a century old, the historic site serves as the final resting place for several of Warren’s Civil War, World War I and World War II veterans, along with Warren dignitaries.

“There are 24 veterans that we have identified (who) are buried in the cemetery,” Becky Hetchler said. Hetchler is a member of the Historical Commission and answered historical questions about the cemetery for those on the walk.

The cemetery was a popular site with its

“I thought some people wouldn’t be too interested in the cemetery. They were. They walked the whole end of the cemetery. There were people all over,” said Wiseman. “The cemetery is open all the time (dawn to dusk).

You can go on your own, but you won’t have a guide to tell you where people are buried, which is what we had available to them.”

The plants, trees and a butterfly garden add beauty and life to the cemetery.

“We have lots of trees and bushes planted there (in the cemetery) from different homes from the city of Warren. There is history within the plantings,” Hetchler said.

“We have what is believed to be an Indian (Native American) trail marker tree. It is a See GARDEN on page 23A

primary and have the citizens of Warren vote for me. I’m looking forward to going further and becoming (a) city councilman and working for the city of Warren, the people of District 1 and all of Warren.”

At the top of Perry’s list if elected is restoring Social Security benefits to Warren’s police and fire departments.

“I am totally in support of the police and fire departments, specifically, to bring back their health care because they don’t have Social Security. All they have is a pension, and it would take away from their families.”

District 1 was the only council race with a primary candidate not endorsed by Warren Mayor James Fouts, and it is also the only district where an incumbent is not running. Councilman Ron Papandrea currently holds the seat and is not seeking reelection.

District 2 was the only City Council race where an incumbent received the most votes. Jonathan Lafferty, the current councilman in District 2, received 1,136 votes, or 26.3% of the votes cast.

“I am extremely pleased that my neighbors entrust me to continue representing them on the Warren City Council,” said Lafferty in a written statement. “This campaign will be about the difference between electing a rubber-stamp authority or an independent, accountable council, responsible only to the people that elected them.”

Lafferty added, “Voters made their vision abundantly clear yesterday (Aug. 8) that Warren’s next mayor and council shall serve in the shadow of outgoing Mayor Jim Fouts.

I intend to serve as the check and balance to that vision.”

Adam Sawka, who is endorsed by the mayor, came in second with 1,120 votes, or 25.9% of the votes cast.

“The residents of Warren are tired of the City Council. They are tired of the antics. They are tired of the toxic environment,” Sawka said. “They want a new slate.

I look forward to the November election.”

Sawka said he is hopeful.

“We’ve (my family and I) met so many kind people in Warren. It gives us hope in the city, hope that there are better things to come,” said Sawka. “Hopefully, when I’m elected there will be better things to come.”

According to Sawka, residents want to see Warren move forward.

“They want to see progress. They’re sick of the stalemate,” said Sawka.

The primary race in District 3 was led by Warren police officer Daniel Bozek with 1,681 votes (46.1%). The district’s

incumbent, Warren City Council Secretary Mindy Moore, was second with 1,518 votes (41.6%).

Bozek was also endorsed by the mayor and commented about winning the primary.

“It means that the city is taking the step in the right direction, that I have been knocking doors with the residents in District 3,” Bozek said.

Bozek took a pragmatic view and did not address what he would do if elected.

“We’re kind of in halftime of a tough game,” Bozek said. “I have a lot of work to do to get through November. I believe they (voters in District 3) want their voices heard.

They want representation for them (Warren residents), and I plan on providing that to them.”

Bozek talked about his career in law enforcement and public service.

“I’ve been a police officer for the city of Warren for 27 years. I have been in law enforcement for 30 years and serving the public. I hope to continue to do that in November, just in a different role.”

According to Bozek, per the city charter, if elected to council he would resign from the Warren Police Department and serve full time as a councilman.

Moore, if reelected, looks forward to working collaboratively with the new administration.

“I am certainly looking forward to working collaboratively with a new mayor.

I am sure the relationship will be better than we’ve had in the past,” Moore said. “I will continue to operate under the charter and listen to residents’ concerns and try to push their needs to the administration and try to get action.”

Moore reflected on things that need to be done.

“We have a lot of things to take care of. We have to maintain our police levels.

There has been no progress in the fire stations, skate park and the Nine Mile (Road) library,” said Moore.

Moore was among the incumbents who received less votes than the newcomer entering the race. She addressed some of the possible reasons for that.

“It was disappointing, but the primary is always a low turnout and this one was abysmal,” Moore said. “The Warren Weekly published most of the attacks against the incumbent council members. That could have been damaging. There were a lot of lies printed about us. I just plan on continuing to walk door to door having a positive message.”

District 4 was one of the smaller races with three candidates. Gary Boike, who ran for an at-large seat in 2019 and came in third, received the most votes in the 2023 primary

for District 4 with 1,526 votes (46.9%). Incumbent Garry Watts came in second with 1,068 votes (32.8%), and Seng Xiong finished third with 662 votes (20.3%).

“I am overwhelmed with the support I received,” said Boike. “The primary is not the finals. Anything can happen in the finals.”

Boike said he plans to continue working to connect with voters.

“I am going to continue working hard out there — knocking on doors, telling the people what my vision is, and hopefully have a win in November,” Boike said.

If elected, he would like to see an updated city charter.

“I would like to get a charter commission,” said Boike. “Our charter is old. The language can be interpreted many ways. We need a charter that is concise and accurate, and this prevents unnecessary lawsuits,” Boike said.

If reelected, Watts said he would continue to fight for the citizens of Warren.

“I have given it my all in my last four years to fight the problems coming from City Hall. I will continue that fight,” said Watts.

Asked what he would do differently, Watts said, “If the administration wants to work together, I am happy to work together.

In the past, they (members of the administration) haven’t wanted to. I feel I’ve done everything as close to right as I can do it.”

Watts said he had questions about the election but accepted the results.

“It was the smallest turnout of percentage of voters in the city of Warren ever,” Watts said. “I questioned the vote count. I

questioned some absentees. It may not have affected my district but when you look at the numbers in all the different precincts, I had questions.”

Watts said he is ready to move on from the primary.

“The election is over with. It’s time to move on. I think it’s OK that people have questions. I’m not an election denier by any means,” Watts said.

Henry Newnan led the race in District 5 with 856 votes (31.1%). Britani Tringali came in second with 750 votes (27.3%).

Newnan said what winning the race meant to him.

“It means to me that I have the confidence of a great many of Warren City Council District 5 voters,” Newnan said. “I look forward to earning the trust of the rest, whether they vote for me or not in the general election. I plan on serving everyone in District 5.”

Newnan continued as to what voters want from him.

“Voters want to see each city councilor work to keep the budget of the city balanced, better roads, prompt action taken with rotting trees to protect the safety and property of residents,” Newnan said. “In addition, they would like to see an ombudsperson for seniors and veterans to connect with the services already available.”

Newnan said he will advocate for his district while working with the council and the new mayor.

Tringali also said what the results meant to her.

“It means that voters have decided to See COUNCIL on page 22A

vote for me, and they stand behind what I believe in,” Tringali said.

“They (the voters) want me to do what is best for the city, which is to continue to provide funding to police and fire to keep the city safe; to advocate for the downtown development, free of cost to the citizens; and parks and recreation — Halmich Park, the bathrooms need to be updated. The soccer fields, the cricket fields, there’s all kinds of opportunities with that,” Tringali said.

Tringali said she will help bring these issues to fruition by voting for and lobbying for change when the proposals are on the table.

The top four vote-getters in the primary for Warren’s two at-large City Council seats will move forward to the general election.

Leading the charge was Dave Dwyer, who came in first and received 5,581 votes (17.0%). Donna Kaczor Caumartin was second with 5,294 votes (16.2%). Incumbent Councilwoman Angela Rogensues finished third with 4,869 votes (14.9%) and Marie C. Adkins finished fourth with 3,227 votes (9.9%).

“Being new into politics in Warren, my hopes were to get into the final four,” said Dwyer. “For me to finish No. 1 was just a surprise and just awesome. I was just elated.”

Dwyer said he would like to see up-todate public safety.

“I think we have to protect our public safety, both police and fire, keep them stateof-the-art with their equipment and computers,” Dwyer said.

If elected, Dwyer would make smart grid technology a top priority.

“DTE is launching a $5 billion project in Michigan for smart grids, which earmarks power from areas that have power to areas that have outages. That is something I would like to get right at the top of my priority list,” Dwyer said.

Caumartin described what the victory in the primary meant to her.

“This victory means to me that the people are definitely showing they want professionalism. They want the fighting to stop,” said Caumartin. “And they’re showing the direction that they want Warren to move forward.”

If elected, Caumartin said how she would bring that to fruition.

“As a realtor for more than 30 years and on the planning commission for 11 (years), I have the experience to know what affects

our property values, what are good developments, and bond ratings as it compares to other cities,” said Caumartin.

Part of Caumartin’s plan to move Warren forward is communication.

“Open-ended communication between the residents and council, I think that’s vitally important,” said Caumartin. “My communications that I have between the county and the state, I think that will add wonders to our growth and be able to use some grant money for our parks and keep us moving forward.”

Rogensues said she will work to “win over residents.”

“I feel honored that the voters elected me to move on to the general and have enough trust and faith to see me eventually be reelected,” Rogensues said. “I will continue to work on winning the hearts and minds of the residents here and demonstrate my track record of success over the past four years. I will continue to combat a lot of the negative narrative that the mayor and his team created in the ecosystem about who I am as a city councilperson and who I am as a person.”

Rogensues shared what she would do if reelected.

“I will continue to be an independent voice on council and do my best to bring

resources to the challenges that residents communicate are issues,” she said.

According to Rogensues, residents want a variety of things to move Warren forward, and what those things are depends upon who is asked. Among the issues of concern are economic development and new businesses coming to the city without taxes going up. She said residents want lower taxes and continued city services, better parks and attention to blighted areas.

Adkins, a registered nurse who said she is new to politics, is excited about going to the general election.

“It really means a lot. I think a lot of people were not expecting me to make it in the primary considering I’m new and this is my first time running,” Adkins said. “The Warren neighbors that I talked to (said) that I really resonated with them.”

Adkins addressed how she will prepare for the election on Nov. 7.

“I am going to work twice as hard,” Adkins said. “I just really need to work on getting more people to get out there and vote because the turnout for last Tuesday (for the primary) was really disappointing to say the least.”

Norway spruce. Supposedly, the Indians (Native Americans) use to bend the branches to give the direction you are supposed to go on the trail.”

The Norway spruce is not marked but is very recognizable, according to Hetchler.

It is the tallest tree in the west end of the cemetery.

The oldest grave in the cemetery is that of Moses Wilson. His headstone is located near the butterfly garden. The headstone was recently restored.

There have been no burials since the city of Warren took over the maintenance of the cemetery, according to Hetchler.

“There is a time capsule buried at the cemetery and it’s to be opened in 2043, on the 150th anniversary of the incorporation of the Village,” Hetchler said. “It was buried in 1993 on the 100th anniversary of the incorporation of the Village.”

There is a butterfly garden that is dedicated to Dorothy Peck Cummings, who lived on Chicago Road in a 1941 bungalow that was featured on the walk. The Peck family is integral to the history of the Village. Doro-

thy’s grandfather, Edward Peck, was originally from New York. He came to Warren in 1874 and purchased 80 acres of land, which was called Village View Farm, and became the township treasurer. Her father, Eledred Peck, owned the Peck General Store and was the Village of Warren postmaster. Mertal, Eledred’s wife and Dorothy’s mother, was an early member of the Warren Garden Club, as was Dorothy until her death in 2015, according to the Warren Garden Club.

Also along the walk was the First Baptist Church of Warren, which opened its doors to provide a refreshing respite for those on the walk with water and lemonade. The church dates back to 1857 and still holds services every Sunday.

The proceeds from the walk go to the Macomb Community College Foundation, which benefits Warren students attending the college.

Warren Garden Club meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month at the Warren Community Center at 6 p.m.

M1 CONCOURSE BRINGS CAR ENTHUSIASTS TOGETHER IN AN AUTOMOTIVE ENVIRONMENT

BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com

T

om McDonald has been around cars his entire life.

“Growing up, I could tell every car by the sound of the motor,” he said.

As a family man with a wife and four daughters, McDonald worked in automotive communication for more than 50 years.

Now retired, McDonald can often be found at his favorite spot in town: the M1 Concourse in Pontiac.

The 87-acre M1 Concourse — located at the northwest corner of Woodward Avenue and South Boulevard — is known as

a premier destination for automotive entertainment and recreation. The concourse is a community of private car condominiums with living rooms and kitchenettes. Each car condo garage features two-story open spaces ranging in size that allow for parking multiple vehicles.

The concourse also features a 1.5-mile road course, an events center, and indoor and outdoor spaces that overlook the track.

It’s a place where car buffs can gather for private and public events. There’s also a retail store on-site.

“This is like a country club for car people. It’s fun. It’s a place to play and a place to rest,” said McDonald, who resides in Roch-

ester Hills. “This was an old General Motors plant. It was like a brownfield.”

The M1 Concourse is the ideal place for McDonald to store and drive his five cars: a 2017 Mazda MX-5 Cup racing car, a 2016 Mazda Miata street car, a 1957 Porsche Speedster, a 2016 Porsche 911 Carrera, and a hybrid 2019 Porsche Panamera.

McDonald said the Miata “is wonderful for the street and the track.”

“It provides a thrill and a smile,” he said. “You get out of this car and you can’t help but smile.”

As for the 1957 Porsche Speedster, “This is a very rare car. Very few of them were made,” McDonald said. “It has a rear

engine and has been fully restored.”

Inside his condominium his love for cars is evident by the number of posters and mementos dedicated to his years of working in the automobile industry. One special piece is the toy replica model of a 1956 Chevy Bel-Air. “I took my wife on our first date in this car. It was a drive-in in Pennsylvania,” McDonald said. “I was in college. That brings back a lot of memories.”

McDonald held executive positions in automotive communication with various companies over the years. That includes Volkswagen of America, Mazda, Porsche,

Audi and ThyssenKrupp. His primary responsibility was to maintain a relationship with the company he was working for and the media. He was always available, for instance, when a new car was unveiled.

“We’d launch new vehicles, maybe at a racetrack, or we’d go to places with good roads,” he said. “We’d give journalists the opportunity to drive the car on the racetrack.

When the media person had a question, they could call the PR person. We always took an honest approach. I always thought of myself as the conscience of the company.

“I started working in 1967, and in 2021, I fully retired. I hung up my car keys, as they say,” the U.S. Army veteran said. “I have enjoyed every moment of my working career. I traveled around the world and met people. I have my friends in automotive media throughout the country and throughout the world I stay in touch with.”

He also stays in contact with many people at the M1 Concourse.

“We’re friendly people. We’re outgoing,” McDonald said. “We love to talk about our cars. There’s such a variety of cars and

people. Everyone from a 1910 Ford Model T to a 2020 Porsche 918. There are a lot of exotic cars. We have race car drivers, collectors, Corvette guys, Mustang guys.”

He also said the M1 Concourse is not a racetrack but rather a performance track.

And safety is a priority.

“All the cars have to be inspected every year — brakes, tires inspection — to make sure the cars are in good shape,” McDonald said.

“It’s a great feeling,” McDonald said of driving along the track. “You’re feeling the

G-force on a turn. You’re feeling the braking and the acceleration. It’s like if you ride a horse. You’re feeling the motion of the horse.”

Car owners are allotted a certain number of hours to use the track, and those times shift between morning, afternoon and evening. Each condominium has an official address and a pit lane number.

The general public is invited to the M1 Concourse “Cars & Coffee” on the first Saturday of the month from April through October. The time is 8–11 a.m. Each show has

a special vehicle theme. The Sept. 2 theme is Ford, Lincoln and Mercury. The Oct. 7 theme is Japanese Domestic Manufacturing and Asian Brands.

The M1 Concourse is located at 1 Concourse Drive in Pontiac. For more information, visit m1concourse.com or call (248) 326-9999.

ROSEVILLE — Dewon Henderson, 37, who was convicted of two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct by a jury in June, was sentenced Aug. 2.

In December 2021, Henderson sexually assaulted a minor in a hotel in Roseville. He was convicted after a four-day jury trial in the 16th Circuit Court in Macomb County.

On Aug. 2, he was sentenced to 25-40 years in prison. He must also register on the Michigan Sex Offender Registry, have lifetime electronic monitoring and pay court fines and costs.

Joshua Jones, Henderson’s attorney, did not return a request for comment.

Items stolen from apartment

SHELBY TOWNSHIP — At 12:07 a.m. July 16, Shelby Township police officers were dispatched to an apartment in the area of Dequindre and West Utica roads on a breaking and entering report. Upon arrival, officers met with the caller and observed that someone had forcibly entered the front door.

Officers checked the apartment but didn’t find any suspects inside. A safe, money, several purses and jewelry reportedly had been stolen from the apartment. Evidence technicians were called to the scene to gather potential evidence, and the case was turned over to the detective bureau for further investigation.

Boat partially sinks after pump lines cut

ST. CLAIR SHORES — At 12:37 p.m. on July 24, a report was made about property damage that occurred between July 16 and July 24 in the 24000 block of Jefferson Avenue.

Upon arrival, the officer spoke to the victim, a 42-year-old man, who stated when he had his boat docked during the said times, an unknown suspect cut the lines that operate the pump. The boat was reportedly taking on water, causing it to sink due to the lines being cut.

According to the report, the marina indicated that the victim would be required to pay $3,500 to have the boat removed because it partially sunk.

The victim stated he was unsure about the cost of any repairs. The insurance company was unknown.

Shoplifter takes 10 cases of 5-Hour Energy

ST. CLAIR SHORES — At 5:29 p.m. on July 21, a report was made about an alleged retail fraud on the same date in the 23000 block of Marter Road.

Upon arrival, an officer spoke to the manager, a 24-year-old man, who stated that a man in his late 30s to early 40s entered the store and grabbed

a basket. The man went to where the 5-Hour Energy drinks were and the manager followed, having recognized him from previous retail thefts.

The manager asked the suspect if he needed any assistance and the man stated he did not. The suspect proceeded to load approximately 10 cases of 5-Hour Energy into a basket.

The manager followed the suspect to the front of the store and told the clerk to call 911 before following the suspect out the door past the point of sale. The suspect got into a vehicle and the driver of the vehicle reportedly matched the description of the registered vehicle owner.

The registered owner had a warrant out for her arrest. The manager showed the officer the footage of the theft and also provided a complaint number from a previous incident with the suspect.

Truck taken

GROSSE POINTE WOODS — Three unknown suspects are believed to have been involved in the theft of a 2022 Ford Bronco from a parking lot in the 20000 block of Mack Avenue at around 5 p.m.

July 25.

According to a police report, the victim left the truck unlocked with the keys inside while visiting a business in the area. A witness saw the suspects — teens riding bikes through the alley — and saw one of them enter the truck and drive away in it.

Police said they were able to locate and recover the truck soon after in Detroit thanks to a GPS tracker inside the vehicle. The truck also contained a wallet with cash and debit cards; police said the suspects racked up more than $5,000 worth of purchases on the debit cards before the victim could cancel them.

Packages plucked from truck

GROSSE POINTE PARK — While a delivery truck was parked in the 15000 block of Kercheval Avenue dropping off packages, police said an unknown suspect took advantage of the rear truck door being left open to snag some of the packages left inside at around 5:30 p.m. July 19.

The driver, who witnessed the incident, said the suspect ran westbound toward Alter Road.

Trespassers try to cool off in property’s water

STERLING HEIGHTS — A caller told police July 21 that two male suspects were trespassing on private property near 15 Mile and Schoenherr roads.

The suspects allegedly said they wanted to cool off in some water, despite “no trespassing” signs on the premises. They reportedly drove out of a funeral home parking lot prior to police arriving.
