Last month, the St. Clair Shores City Council voted 5-2 to approve a special land use and site plan for a 40-unit multistory family complex on Jefferson Avenue south of Stephens Street.

The plan was approved at the Aug. 21 meeting. Councilman John Caron and Councilwoman Candice Rusie cast the opposing votes.

The special land use and site plan approval was requested by Jefferson Plaza LLC and was presented by Joe Vaglica, the head engineer and architect for the project. Vaglica is from Gateway Engineering. The name of the proposed condominium complex is Fair Winds Cove.

Before the council’s discussion started, there were 18 residents and business owners who made public comments about the project. Some residents who spoke at the meeting also spoke when this plan was brought up for the first time on March 20.

John Mabley, a resident, said he believes

St. Clair Shores Fire Chief James Piper said two ladder trucks doused the fire with water from above as the flames burned through the roof of a five-unit strip mall in the 23000 block of Harper Avenue near Nine Mile Road Sept. 10.

The St. Clair Shores Fire Department found themselves extinguishing back-to-back blazes this month.

A commercial fire occurred at a five-unit strip mall in the 23000 block of Harper Avenue near Nine Mile Road around 12:10 p.m. Sept. 10. There was also an apartment above one unit that was occupied at the time of the fire. First-responders from the St. Clair Shores Fire Department arrived to find heavy smoke conditions from the center unit.

The Eastpointe Fire Department also responded to the scene, as did a requested ladder truck from the Roseville Fire Department, which supplemented the St. Clair Shores Fire Department’s own ladder truck. Crews initially attempted to approach from the back of the structure but were impeded by hazardous conditions created by the fire encroaching on power lines.

“The rapidly developing fire conditions and the electrical involvement required crews to work from the exterior of the building,” said St. Clair Shores Fire Chief James Piper, in an email interview. “Multiple hand lines and large-size fire attack lines were deployed, at both the front and rear, while crews checked for extension to the other units.”

Piper said that the crews managed to keep the fire contained to the original unit, so that only smoke damage was incurred at the neighboring units. The two ladder trucks doused the fire with water from above as the flames burned through the roof.

The St. Clair Shores Department of Public Works was asked to assist with a backhoe to remove pieces of the center unit, allowing crews access to fully extinguish the fire.

“Much of the roof had collapsed due to the initial fire load, so fire units were unable to reach everywhere to achieve full extinguishment, until the backhoe removed much of the debris,” Piper said. “That particular occupancy was a total loss, but all of the other units in the building should be back in business very soon.”

In the early moments of the fire, bystanders report-

Ride-along experiences give depth to auto show

BY DEAN VAGLIA

dvaglia@candgnews.com

METRO DETROIT — Back downtown for its second post-pandemic event, the North American International Auto Show is mostly what industry watchers have come to expect from the annual automotive gathering.

General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and Stellantis take up the majority of Huntington Place’s floor space. Toyota Motor Corp. is the only non-Detroit manufacturer with a significant presence, while Volkswagen of America Inc., American Honda Motor Co. and Kia America, Inc. have smaller exhibits.

Electric vehicles are given a considerable amount of attention on the show floor with GM, Ford and Stellantis showing off their electric truck, SUV and crossover offerings.

But for those looking to go beyond looking at exhibits and sitting in static cars, look no further than the four different ridealong experiences.

Electric enthusiasts can take a ride on the Powering Michigan EV Experience, where seven brands — BMW of North America LLC, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Tesla and Volkswagen — give a rapid ride through a twisting course at the back of the exhibition hall. EVs of all sizes are available for rides ranging from the Chevrolet Bolt EUV compact to the titanic GMC Hummer EV. The Powering Michigan EV Experience provides a smooth-if-intense ride through

Ram’s Truck Territory course puts its 1500, 2500 and 3500 trucks through an industrialthemed route with inclines, banked corners and rough terrain. Camp Jeep has a similar experience where Wranglers and Grand Cherokees test their off-road capabilities on a trail-themed course.

“A lot of times, people ask questions about Jeep and if owners really do go offroad,” said Stellantis spokesperson Rick Deneau. “Some do and some don’t, but if you don’t, maybe you don’t know about the capability of the vehicle. This (Camp Jeep) is really awe-inspiring, going up the steepest and highest hills, going through the different areas with the wheel articulation. You might not experience that if you’re not an off-roader.”

Shorestoberfest to bring German festivities to St. Clair Shores

BY ALYSSA OCHSS aochss@candgnews.com

Pull out your lederhosen and put on your best dirndl for Shorestoberfest, presented by the St. Clair Shores Cool City Committee and the Lac Ste. Claire Kiwanis.

Jason Miller, chair of the Cool City Committee, said to expect a lot of fun at the annual event. It is taking place from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Sept. 30 at Veterans Memorial Park. Park passes are not needed for entry.

“It’s basically a German-themed Oktoberfest celebration,” Miller said. “So as like in the German Oktoberfest, it’s a celebration of (the) end of harvest, end of year.”

Various beers will be on tap for the event featuring local breweries including Copper Hop Brewing Company, Baffin Brewing Company and others. Blake’s Orchard & Cider Mill will also be featured with their hard cider.

Food trucks will be available with Oktoberfest-themed foods for everyone to enjoy. Also featured are a couple of contests.

“We have a dress up in your best costume contest. We’ll have that and then also the stein holding contest,” Miller said.

The Cool City Committee hosts the event in partnership with the Lac Ste. Claire Kiwanis. The event is a joint fundraiser for both groups.

“This is such a large event at Veterans Memorial Park and having such a large space, we need to have a lot of volunteers to cover because it’s such a big event,” Miller said.

“We work together as partners on this and we pull this off and we put on this event.”

Shorestoberfest is for people 21 years of age or older because it is a German beer fest.

“So we’re going to be IDing people at the gates and stuff,” Miller said. “That’s part of the responsibility and also part of the state license. We have to have that level of security.”

There will be a $10 admission charge because of the nature of the event.

“The reason being is … we use that for fundraising. This is our one-time-a-year fundraiser,” Miller said. “So that allows us to use that funding for future events.”

The need for fundraising has increased in part due to the success of the citywide garage sale, rising expectations and other events.

“If we do (a) citywide garage sale again, it’s going to be bigger and better than this past year, which means is, we’re going to have to do (a) bigger budget,” Miller said.

Miller said the park will be shut down by 6 p.m. for this special event.

Miller said the two groups collectively raised around $9,000 last year before expenses.

Some of the money raised supports pro-

gramming such as Halloween events and the kids’ zone in the social district.

“Funds that we earn on that gets turned right back around into putting on a really neat event,” Miller said.

LAKE SHORE OPENS CONFERENCE PLAY WITH 32-21 WIN When St. Clair Shores Lake Shore opened its 2023-2024 football campaign on Aug. 25 traveling to Sault Ste. Marie, it was an unconventional start to the year for the team and different from seasons past.

It was a different area, a different opponent and, more importantly, a different kind of travel for the Shorians.

Sure, the 49-0 loss wasn’t the outcome Lake Shore had hoped for when making the hike, but coach Marcus Cribbs said the season opener played a pivotal role in other aspects of the team.

“I think the Sault Ste. Marie trip, just overall the travel and playing that level of competition, I think that really helped us grow as a team even with the loss,” Cribbs said. “Coming back down, we knew some things we needed to work on, and we’ve really been working on those things over the last couple of weeks that’s led to the two wins we’ve had.”

Now two weeks later, Lake Shore is 2-1 and fresh off a 32-21 win over Macomb Area Conference Gold opponent Warren Woods Tower on Sept. 8 at Lake Shore High School.

Tower took a 15-14 lead at the half, but the Lake Shore offense came out firing on all cylinders in the second half behind junior quarterback Jordan Alston.

Alston had connected with junior wide receiver Cam’Ron Flowers, who’s more of a Swiss army knife in the Lake Shore offense, and junior wide receiver Ja’Sean Dean in the first half for a pair of passing touchdowns, but Alston wasn’t done giving the Tower secondary problems just yet.

On Lake Shore’s first drive of the second half, Alston found Flowers on a 46-yard touchdown pass to give Lake Shore the lead.

A dynamic playmaker at the quarterback position, Alston has continued to improve throughout the past three weeks, and Cribbs said Alston is only getting more confident in the pocket.

“This game was probably one of his better games of his career here at Lake Shore in terms of yardage, touchdown passes, and just putting it all together,” Cribbs said. “It’s really the first game where we kind of put the trust in him to read the defense and sling it a little bit more than we normally do.”

Alston finished the day with 278 yards passing and three touchdowns while Flowers hauled in 127 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

The Lake Shore defense would hold the Tower offense on the ensuing drive, and senior Michael Livi would punch in a threeyard touchdown run to give Lake Shore the two-score lead.

The following is for education purposes.

“Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love but to use violence to get what they want. This is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion.” ....Mother Theresa THE ABORTION PILL: KNOWLEDGE IS POWER How it works • The “abortion pill” is two medications: mifepristone and misoprostol.

• The “abortion pill” is typically prescribed for up to 11 weeks of pregnancy.

• Mifepristone blocks progesterone, a hormone needed for healthy pregnancy • Misoprostol-typically taken 48 hours after the first pill-induces early labor to expel the growing embryo. Misoprostol is a medication originally intended to prevent ulcers.

What Doctors are Saying Many board-certified OB/GYN physicians caution the use of this strong drug at home without on-site medical supervision. Dr. Catherine Stark, an OB/GYN physician who has cared for thousands of pregnant women over the past 25 years, warns that the rapid expansion of the availability of this drug “disregards patient safety and ignores the well documented side effect profile of this drug.” A recent study from Canada showed about 10% of women who had at-home abortions with this method required an ER visit within six weeks of taking this abortion pill.

Side Effects and Risks This abortion pill process results in symptoms similar to miscarriage: heavy bleeding and spotting for an average of two weeks and cramping. About half of women taking the abortion pill will experience: • Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea • Infection and sepsis • Ruptured ectopic pregnancy • 28 women have died taking mifepristone The abortion pill fails in approximately 5% of cases, at which point a surgical abortion is then often indicated.

Abortion Pill Reversal: Is it too late? Women who begin the process of chemical abortion may experience feelings of regret and severe anxiety. If you have already taken Mifepristone- the first of the two pills- but have not yet taken the second pill, it may not be too late. A progesterone treatment commonly used to prevent miscarriage may be able to help.

THE FIFTH COMMANDMENT

When God gave Moses the Ten Commandments (for the benefit of the Israelites and for us). He did not call them the ten suggestions. To refresh our memory, they are: 1. I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have false gods before Me. 2. Thou Shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. 3.

Remember keep holy the Lord’s day. 4. Honor thy father and mother. 5. Though shalt not kill. 6. Thou shalt not commit adultery. 7. Thou shalt not steal. 8.

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 9. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife. 10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s goods.

As prolifers, it is the fifth commandment that concerns us the most because we know that every day an unborn baby is killed every twenty minutes in the United States. That’s a lot of babies, a lot of very young people, a lot of times the Fifth Commandment is broken every day.

We should pray every day for an end to the holocaust of abortion. May America once again live by the ten Commandments and may we become God’s children living in peace and harmony with each other.

mals and serve as host plants for moths. In contrast, boxwood can attract pests like leaf miners and spider mites,” Ott said.

The challenge lies in finding species that blend beauty with biodiversity, offering homes and food to beneficial insects and pollinators.

“Remember, trees and shrubs are your allies in reducing energy consumption. They can save up to 25% of a household’s heating

and cooling energy. They also lower surface temperatures on driveways and sidewalks, reduce lawn maintenance and the need for harmful chemicals and fertilizers, and create peaceful, dust-free environments,” Ott said.

P

lanting new trees, bushes, shrubs and flowers can really brighten up a landscape and boost curb appeal, but knowing when to plant them is the key to having a thriving yard.

When timed right, planting additions can result in long-lasting landscaping; however, when timed wrong, you could be planting your hard-earned money to rest forever.

The key is to know what season and weather are best for new plants.

Linda Pelloni, the director of the Shelby Gardeners Club, said fall is the best time to plant.

“When adding trees and shrubs to your landscape, planting in the fall offers several benefits. It’s an ideal time for you, as all the hard gardening work of spring and the upkeep of summer will be winding down — plus it’s the best time for the tree,” Pelloni said in an email interview.

She said Marianne Willburn, gardening expert and author, says that the following are best to plant in the fall: butterfly bush, hydrangea, forsythia, beauty berry, viburnum and more.

“A shrub by definition is a woody, multi-stemmed plant, either deciduous or evergreen, that can grow from just a few inches high to over ten feet tall. Cooler air temperatures in the fall give freshly planted trees and shrubs a better chance to develop healthier root systems more rapidly than those planted in hotter months,” Pelloni said.

She said the recommended time for moving trees and shrubs is during the dor-

mant season. Early spring is generally the best time to transplant; conditions should be ideal for rapid root growth. Digging should be done when the soil is moist and when the plant is not under moisture stress.

Jennifer Ott, of My Thyme Gardens, which serves Macomb and Oakland counties, said autumn is the perfect time to nurture your green space by planting trees and shrubs. While early spring has its charms, fall planting comes with distinct advantages.

“Unlike the summer heat, fall provides milder temperatures, reducing the stress on newly planted trees and shrubs. Planting in the fall gives them a head start on establishing strong root systems before winter arrives,” she said in an email.

Ott said the soil is still warm from summer, offering an ideal environment for root growth. If a plant is planted during the summer heat, it will quickly dry out, turn a brown or orange color and die.

“Fall planting ensures your green additions have time to acclimate before the snow blankets the ground. The sweet spot for planting trees and shrubs is six to eight weeks before mid to late December, typically from early September through mid-October. Take advantage of fall sales at your local nurseries for the best deals,” she said.

She said that when choosing your green additions, think beyond aesthetics and consider their impact on the local ecosystem.

“For example, planting an oak tree not only provides shade but supports a staggering 2,300 species, including various birds, fungi, invertebrates, and mammals. Opt for native species like inkberry over less resilient options like boxwood. Inkberry’s berries offer sustenance to birds and small mam-

UNWLA Branch 53 celebrates ‘Golden Jubilee’

BY MARIA ALLARD

allard@candgnews.com

WARREN — In February 1973, a group of Ukrainian women with the desire to help others gathered for their first meeting.

With founder Lydia Kolodchin at the helm, they formed the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America Branch 53, which is part of the Ukrainian National Women’s League of America based in New York City.

Kolodchin died last year at age 96, but her legacy and that of Branch 53 continues. Currently, there are 21 active members in the charitable and cultural organization.

Branch 53 will celebrate its 50-year “Golden Jubilee” at 1:30 p.m. Oct. 8 at the Ukrainian Cultural Center, 26601 Ryan Road.

The event, open to the public, will include a luncheon and a fashion show featuring clothing made by Maryana Priymak, who designs clothing from her studio in Lviv, Ukraine.

Priymak uses the hand-looming cloth technique to make men’s, women’s and children’s clothing, purses, wallets, belts and shawls.

She will not be at the luncheon, but is sending the clothing, which will be available for purchase.

The Golden Jubilee gives the members a chance to celebrate the group’s history and share Ukrainian culture with others. Golden Jubilee tickets are $65 each and must be purchased by Sept. 27. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the UNWLA humanitarian and scholarship funds.

Over the years, Branch 53 members have held countless fundraisers, Easter raffles and other events that have raised money to provide scholarships, medical care, food, financial assistance and care packages to local residents and people living in Ukraine. They’ve also been known to help widows in need, support summer camps for orphans and lend a hand to injured soldiers undergoing rehabilitation.

“The big emphasis now is to help those people impacted by the war,” said Ola Movchan Novak, of Warren, who has been a Branch 53 member for 50 years and is the Golden Jubilee chairperson. “There are millions of people that had to leave their homes in the east. During the winter, the water supply was damaged and compromised, and now there are more medical needs. We feel good to be able to help the community.”

“The whole goal is really to get people to experience these vehicles so they can understand what these vehicles can do, especially these electric vehicles,” said Ford spokesperson Dan Barbossa. “We really want people to understand a Lightning, how fast it can go, how light it is and the capability that it has as well.”

Younger attendees will get a chance to test drive a car of their own at the new Camp Jeep Kids Zone. The all-new Power Wheels Jeep Wrangler 4xE is ready for a spin around the Kids Course, while a 26-foot-tall climbing wall adds a hint of adventure to the auto show experience.

Sam’s QuickLube

BY JONATHAN SZCZEPANIAK jszczepaniak@candgnews.com

There’s a different feeling around St. Clair Shores Lakeview volleyball this year.

Lakeview holds another extremely strong senior class and, to add on top of that, a young core of underclassmen who have made their mark throughout the season.

It’s shaping up to be a special season for the Huskies (12-2, 2-0 MAC Blue), and a historic feat may be on the horizon for this squad.

Lakeview has yet to bring home a district title throughout the school’s extensive history, and without having to face some of their district heavy hitters in the past like Grosse Pointe North or Grosse Pointe South, there’s a new

feeling of confidence this year with Lakeview coach Tom Pfeifer and his squad.

“We got really lucky with our district draw this year, so he’s (coach Pfeifer) been saying, ‘This is the team to do it. This is the team I have a lot of faith in to do it,’” senior Alexis Pouttu said.

Pouttu headlines a talented senior group alongside senior libero Ella Jensen, an all-region selection last year. Jensen has been a staple for Lakeview volleyball for four years now and is looking to end her Lakeview career on a high note with seniors Makenna Burgette, Naomi Solomon, Autumn Wirick and Kylee Pfeifer.

There’s no disputing what the senior Huskies can do on the court because they’re doing See VOLLEYBALL on page 27A

ecuted a perfect fake to keep the game alive.

“Sometimes, you go with your gut,” Lakeview coach Patrick Threet said. “We hadn’t done that here ever. When you’re playing a team that’s as talented and well coached as Roseville, you have to find ways to steal possessions, and that’s what we did.”

Senior Keonte Woolf would break a 52-yard touchdown run a few plays later, and Woolf put the game in his hands after a Lakeview stop defensively to punch in a 1-yard touchdown to give Lakeview the 3733 win over Roseville.

Lakeview’s defense got the fourth down stop when the team needed it most, and Lakeview’s run game answered to make a house call late for the win.

Roseville’s offense reached the Lakeview 15-yard line on their final drive, but Woolf would put a final stamp on the game with an 84-yard interception return to the Roseville 1-yard line.

Woolf had teammates, fans, and even play-by-play announcers begging him to go down after the interception, and Woolf himself saw firsthand last year what could happen if he took it to the house.

WORKING THROUGH THEIR GOLDEN YEARS ‘WHEN I’M WITH YOU, I’M YOUR AGE,’ SAYS WORKING CENTENARIAN

BY CHARITY MEIER lin.

cmeier@candgnews.com

T

he majority of people look forward to retirement somewhere around the age of 65. However, for some, retirement is simply a boring separation from a career they love, and thus they choose to forgo it. “(Working) wants you to stay alive,” said Dick McLauglin, of Macomb Township. “You have that feeling of, ‘Oh, I’ve done enough. I can sleep in this morning.’ But you get up, you know, and get going, and that’s what I like.”

At the ripe young age of 100, McLaughlin works an average 20 hours a week over five days as a funeral director and pre arrangement counselor at Wm Sullivan & Son Funeral Directors in Royal Oak, where he has worked since 1953. McLaughlin said he retired for two weeks in 1988 but was so bored that he jumped at the chance to return to his job after the owner asked him to return.

“You burn your duff off sitting at the house,” said McLaugh-

“I stood out there on my deck and said to my wife, ‘I wonder what I can do. I can’t play golf every day,’ and honest to God, John (Sullivan) called me the next day and says, ‘Dick, you want to come back to work?’ I says, ‘Yeah,’” McLaughlin recalled with a chuckle.

He said he loves his job as it allows him the opportunity to take care of people in their hour of need.

“Just taking care of people when they are in so much trouble mentally, usually, and just taking care of them … it just catches you when you did something satisfactory. You want to stay,” said McLaughlin. “You’re helping people get through a bad time, you know, and it’s just really a good thing.”

According to McLaughlin, his job also helps him retain a youthful mentality, and he enjoys the company of “young” people.

He said he is only as old as the person he is with.

Sept. 7, the members reflected on Branch 53’s traditions, describing the Ukrainian people as “friendly, generous, musical, artistic.” Many still have family in Ukraine. Two Branch 53 members were born in Ukraine, while several were born in Germany where their families lived in displacement camps after World War II. Some members were born in the U.S. Through a sponsor, Helen Palmer, born in Germany, came to Cleveland as a young girl with her parents and brother.

“My dad had $12 in his pocket,” Palmer remembered.

The family toughed it out to start a new life in America.

“Ukrainians are survivors. We have survived all these years. People have tried to dominate us for a very long time. We survived,” said Palmer, of Rochester Hills. “Our parents and our grandparents want us to remember the history. We remember the love of country. We remember the country. It means a lot to us. It’s in our hearts.”

The group’s social/welfare chairperson, Janet Tymczenko-Zuyus, a Warren resident who was born in Germany, came to the U.S. on a Navy ship at age 10.

“I remember when I was young, my dad would show me a picture of the Statue of Liberty. When you see that, you’re in heaven,” he

often told her. “To him, America was heaven.”

So when her family left Europe — her father stayed behind for three years — Tymczenko-Zuyus’ eyes teared up when the ship approached the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor.

“I was crying because my dad wasn’t with us,” she said, although she adjusted “very well” to American life and eventually reunited with her dad.

Many of the Branch 53 members have visited Ukraine. Vice President Martha Jovanovic, of Sterling Heights, toured parts of the country with her mom and brother in the early 1970s, which she said was the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic at the time.

Recording Secretary Luba LePage and President Sophie Koshiw — both original members of Branch 53 — also traveled to Ukraine prior to the recent war. They still carry the memories of those trips with them.

“It was fantastic,” said LePage, of Clinton Township, who visited Lviv, Kiev and the Black Sea. “I went to the village where my mother is from.”

“I stayed in the villages on my family’s property. I was also in Lviv,” said Koshiw, of Bloomfield Hills. “Going through the villages, it’s very nice.”

All the members are looking forward to the Golden Jubilee next month.

“We are excited about it because we have been planning it for so long,” LePage said.

Dollar store detergent theft

Officers responded to the 31000 block of Harper Avenue after two unidentified men stole approximately $450 worth of laundry detergent at 4:52 p.m. on Sept. 12.

An employee informed the officers that a heavyset suspect, approximately 40 years old and wearing a gray shirt, exited a dollar store without paying for a full cart of laundry detergent.

Another man, approximately 35 years

old and wearing all red, exited the store without paying for four bottles of detergent.

The second suspect then reentered the store to grab four more bottles of detergent, and then exited again.

Both suspects entered a gray GMC Envoy that left northbound on Harper.

The store was able to capture footage of the suspects.

Bank puts the kibosh on fraudulent check

Officers were dispatched to the 23000 block of Harper Avenue at 2:21 p.m. on

Sept. 12 after a suspect was claimed to have attempted to cash a fraudulent check.

When officers arrived, the assistant vice president of the branch informed officers that the 23-year-old woman, who was present in the bank lobby, attempted to cash a $1,995 check from Dairy Queen.

The assistant vice president said the branch had been informed by other branches that a woman matching the description of the suspect was attempting to cash checks from Dairy Queen along with multiple other people in various locations, including one arrest in Farmington Hills.

The victim claimed that an unknown suspect had been using her Amazon account to purchase Xbox gift cards, totaling $420.

The victim said she received an email from Geek Squad weeks back and clicked on it, and that she believed someone gained access then.

On three separate occasions from Aug. 25 to Sept. 1, the victim said her Amazon account was charged for Xbox gift cards.

The victim has since canceled her credit card.

K-9 track leads to arrest

Officers responded to the 32000 block of Robeson Street at 1:24 a.m. on Sept. 2 after a woman claimed an unknown man was rummaging through her vehicle.

The woman claimed she woke up and noticed someone shining a flashlight through her 2013 Hyundai Elantra and walked outside and screamed at the suspect.

The suspect fled the scene but not without snatching some of her boyfriend’s belongings.

The 21-year-old male victim said he had a 10mm Glock G29SF in a backpack in the backseat along with several credit cards that were stolen from the vehicle, which the couple said was unlocked.

Officers deployed the K-9 unit, which started to gain traction eastbound on the northside of Fisher Drive near a wooded area. An officer located the suspect behind a dirt pile and ordered him to show his hands, and the suspect complied.

Officers were able to arrest the suspect and retrieve the handgun along with a Jeep key fob as well.

Larceny of lawn equipment reported

Officers were dispatched to a condominium complex between Masonic Boulevard and Harper Avenue at 10:36 a.m. on Sept. 1 after employees of a landscaping company noticed equipment missing from their trailer.

An employee on-site informed officers that two gas powered backpack leaf blowers, valued at $600 each, were stolen out of a trailer attached to a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado.

The employee said someone cut the lock between 9:30 a.m. and 10: 15 a.m. that morning while the crew was working, and officers noted that the base of the lock was missing.

Burger joint burglary reported

Officers responded to the 28000 block of Harper Avenue at 2:59 p.m. on Sept. 2 after a food service employee noticed a company trailer was vandalized.

An employee at the scene informed offi-

cers that when he returned on Sept. 2 to start his shift, miscellaneous kitchen utensils and condiments were all over the floor.

The employee mentioned that nothing was taken, and informed officers that the awning and back door were supposed to be locked at the end of the night.

Officers did not find damage to the awning but suspected that it was left unlocked, and the suspect lifted the awning up for entry.

Employees believe the suspect is the same person, approximately 18 years old, who had been loitering around the business throughout the week. He was even reportedly caught on camera throwing a soda can at the camera on Aug. 31.

Sweatshirt larceny on front porch

Officers responded to the 21000 block of Benjamin Street at 4:28 p.m. on Aug. 31 after a 15-year-old victim reported a potential larceny.

The victim claimed he posted a sweatshirt on an app called “OfferUp” for $175 and that he was contacted by the suspect, who did not have a profile picture. The suspect agreed to pay $175 for the item, and the victim provided his address for porch pickup.

The victim said a Jeep Cherokee with a black hood arrived and parked several houses down, and that a suspect with long dreadlocks approached his house. He reportedly grabbed the sweatshirt and fled the scene without paying, exiting in the vehicle driven by a woman.

The victim’s house was equipped with a Ring doorbell, but it was dead at the time of the incident.

Police advised sellers and buyers, especially when dealing with high-value items, to conduct transactions in the parking lot of the St. Clair Shores Police Department.

Purse larceny pings in Clinton Township

A 62-year-old woman reported her purse stolen at 11:10 a.m. on Aug. 30 after she noticed it went missing while pumping gas at the 23000 block of Harper Avenue.

The victim claimed she left her truck unlocked and went inside the gas station, and that she believes the theft took place then.

The victim informed officers that her checkbook, AirPods, and $50 in change were in her purse at the time of the theft.

The victim informed officers that she was able to ping her AirPods, which led her to a residence near 14 Mile Road and Harper Avenue in Clinton Township. She was unable to provide a description of the suspect.

The investigation was ongoing.

THE RACE IS ON AT THE AMERICAN SPEED FESTIVAL

PONTIAC — Fasten your seat belts — it’s time for the third annual American Speed Festival.

The event will race into town from Sept. 28 through Oct. 1 at the M1 Concourse, located at 1 Concourse Drive, which is situated at the northwest corner of Woodward Avenue and South Boulevard.

“The American Speed Festival offers more than just static displays; it provides an engaging and captivating experience for people of all ages,” an American Speed Festival press release states. “Attendees can fully immerse themselves in the event, hearing the thunderous roar of a NASCAR as it enters the pit lane, catching the scent of burning rubber around the track, and witnessing the thrilling spectacle of time attacks. It’s an interactive event that truly brings the excitement to life.”

The M1 Concourse is a playground for any car buff. The 87-acre property features a 1.5-mile road course, an events center, and indoor and outdoor spaces that overlook the racetrack. Also built on-site are private car condominiums that feature living rooms,

Jammin’ at the Junction!

kitchenettes and personal garages, which will open for a fee on late Friday afternoon.

The four-day American Speed Festival is a chance for car owners and spectators to mingle in an automotive setting. There will be race car drivers and sports car owners onsite. Everything from vintage Indy cars to historic stock vehicles to classic cars will spin their wheels. Some of the cars were built for speed, while others became popular because of their unique style.

“It will be a mix of early classic cars, Packards from the 1930s, cars from the ’50s, ’60s, Oldsmobiles, Buicks,” M1 Concourse CEO Timothy McGrane said.

Festival officials have set up the event so onlookers “can get up close and personal and talk to the drivers,” McGrane added.

In addition, the American Speed Festival will celebrate three significant automotive anniversaries: 100 years of Americans at Le Mans, 70 years of Corvette, and 50 years of International Race of Champions (IROC) Series.

The “vroom vroom” fun begins on Thursday with the “speed ring” circuit laps for competitors from noon to 5 p.m., followed by the Motor Grille driver reception See SPEED on page 29A

the updated traffic study provided by the developer is deficient. He said it fails to address concerns about adding a traffic signal on Jefferson, the impact on neighboring properties and insufficient parking for the multistory building.

“At the end of the day, if all the open issues cannot be successfully addressed by the developer, what will you have brought to the Nautical Mile for you as a council and all of us to view, experience and deal with in the coming years?” Mabley said.

John Hoben, president of Windwood Pointe, said based on his observations from years of selling real estate, the developer is not reading market demands or addressing safety concerns. He said a few amenities that are missing from the plan are market value, parking, ample generators and elevators for the units and others.

The council’s discussion started with the special land use request to exceed two stories. Councilman Ron Frederick pointed out they have not yet seen the presentation for the site plan and moved to approve the special land use as present-

ed with support from Councilman Chris Vitale.

Caron stated he had the same objection he had at the last meeting, when he said there needed to be a buffer for the building such as a lake or a freeway, and that there is no buffer in this site plan.

He took into consideration the comments from the residents at the Aug. 21 meeting. He said the environmental studies should have been done prior to any development being considered.

“Since a cleanup is now determined, thanks to the diligence of the residents, that is now required. I don’t see why we would go ahead with any approvals,” Caron said.

Rusie said she is also opposed to the special land use and referenced the ordinance as to why she’s opposed. She also said she doesn’t think anything has been met in terms of the standards in the ordinances.

“It’s not just let’s grant it to move the discussion along. There’s actually standards within the ordinance that we have to find to grant the special land use and I haven’t heard those really discussed,” Rusie said.

Vitale said the building is not five stories, but instead, four stories of condos.

“So what we have is a four-story building that’s making use of a flat roof and looking at the plans, that flat roof is 44 feet from the ground,” Vitale said.

He also brought up other buildings and developments that have gone through multiple site plans before coming to a finalized project.

“That’s how you often arrive at these developments. There’s a back and forth.

There’s an exchange,” Vitale said.

St. Clair Shores Community Development and Inspections Director Denise Pike cleared up what a special land use means.

“A vote affirmatively for a special land use does not automatically approve the height. It only approves this development going above two stories,” Pike said.

Councilman Dave Rubello said he approves the special land use because there is a “total lack of options on this type of housing in St. Clair Shores.”

After the special land use was approved 5-2, Vaglica, along with Mike Gatien, the principal and senior project manager of Applied Environmental, presented the site plan. The site plan included a traffic study, an environmental study, a shadow study and explanations about See CONDO PLAN on page 26A

ed hearing a loud boom, suspected to be from a possible gas leak. There were no injuries to civilians or first responders during the incident.

A few days earlier, around 3:10 p.m. Sept. 7 in the 22000 block of 10 Mile Road, the fire station received word of a detached garage fire. Crews arrived to find a large garage behind the residence engulfed in fire and smoke. Eastpointe firefighters also responded to the incident. Together, the crews pulled hose lines to multiple sides of the building to bring the fire under control.

“No injuries were reported, but there were two classic cars in the garage at the time of the fire that were heavily damaged,” Piper said.

He noted that first responders reached the commercial fire within two minutes and reached the garage fire within four minutes. Both incidents appear to have been accidental in nature.

“Investigations are always open for new information,” Piper said. “But at this time, we are certain the garage fire was accidental, and we believe the commercial fire was as well.”

“When I’m with you, I’m your age.

When I’m with her, I’m her age. I don’t get any older than what you are, you know,” said McLaughlin. “And there’s a lot of young people working here.”

“Love what you’re doing,” McLaughlin said he would advise others. “If you love what you’re doing and helping people, it’s a big thing, you know. And they always remember you.”

Mclaughlin attributes his longevity to “the Good Lord.” He said he has survived World War II, when he served in the U.S. Army for three years as a court reporter from 1943-1945 in Japan and the South Pacific.

He left with the rank of corporal. He said he has also survived cancer, a heart attack, and a stroke.

McLaughlin said his family thinks he has worked enough. However, he said he completely disagrees. He said he doesn’t know what he’d do without his job. He says having a job allows seniors such as himself to stay busy and keep out of trouble.

Mike Lope, the co-owner of Wm Sullivan & Son Funeral Directors, describes McLaughlin as “unbelievable.” Lope said McLaughlin has worked with every funeral director and owner of Sullivan & Son — including his great-grandfather, who founded the business in 1906 — and is well known in the industry.

“It starts with his character,” said Lope.

“He has always put families first. So, in this line of work you have to be good with the rest of the staff, but he’d always put the families and the community first. When you have that person, you don’t want to lose them. Around the building, it’s his sense of humor, embracing the rest of the staff sort of like family. …

He’s just a special guy. He always has been.

He’s been a mentor to all the younger people.

He’s always been good at what he does from

the funeral director side, but also management and making sure that the staff understands what they’re doing. It’s always good to have him around, and we’ll keep him around as long as he wants to be here.”

According to Lope, McLaughlin has always said that without the job, he doesn’t know if he’d still be alive. Lope said he believes that having the job keeps McLaughlin alive and keeps him going as it gives him something to do.

“It’s kept him really sharp. Coming in to work and putting a suit on and being with individuals out in the community on funerals, meeting with them for their needs. And he’s just sort of like a perfect example of the fact that you don’t have to stop working. You can keep working and do it on your terms,” said Lope.

Mclaughlin is not the only one working well into his golden years. James Huntley Sr., 80, of Roseville, continues to work as a machine repairman at Avon Machining in Shelby Township, even after suffering a heart attack on the job in November.

“I just love working. I love the people I work with, work for. They treat me fine. …

I just love coming to work,” Huntley said. “I was home for them 10 weeks. I could tell you every car and what time of day that was coming up and down the street, because I couldn’t do nothing. It was crazy. I can’t shovel snow.

I can’t cut grass. I can’t cut branches down. I can’t do anything. So, in 79 years I have been working with these hands. Still got all 10 fingers. But I can’t stop working.”

Huntley recalled that his doctor had wanted him to retire after the heart attack, but Huntley told him no. They compromised on 24 hours a week, but after working four weeks at part-time hours, he insisted that his doctor let him return to full-time duties, and he now works 40 hours a week.

Huntley’s advice to workers is to find a career they enjoy.

According to Melissa Brown, of Avon Machining, the company offers phased re-

tirement. Phased retirement allows retirement-age employees the opportunity to create a schedule that they want to adhere to.

She said this enables the employees to work while technically retired, allowing them to earn extra money while mentoring younger employees. However, she said those who partake in the program don’t typically work 40 hours a week.

Brown described Huntely as the hardest working person at the company.

“Oh my gosh, he never ever stops moving from the time he gets here,” she said. “He is always working. He is always finding something to do.”

“Jimmy outworks anybody in this place.

Anybody,” said John Binkowski, a machinist who works on Huntely’s team.

“He outworks our 20-year-olds,” added Brown.

“Except me. He busts my tail, let me tell you. And I love it, cause the days go by fast, but he doesn’t stop. He’s a go-getter, and he loves this job. He’s ornery, funny and very hard working,” said Binkowski.

Both Huntley and McLaughlin still drive themselves to and from work, which for both men is an approximately 45-minute commute. They both joked that they continued to work because they are/were married, as they spoke of their wives with found regard.

According to Lope, it is quite common in the funeral industry to hire seniors for positions such as funeral assistant. In fact, he said, they actually solicit seniors for the positions, because of their experience and connections in the community, and willingness to be flexible with schedules. He said the assistants usually work 10 to 20 hours per week. Lope said that it has proved to be beneficial for both the seniors and the funeral home because of the flexibility offered and needed by the positions.

“We do get some seniors coming to work with us because of the flexibility, the hours,” said Lope. “We’re very flexible as

far as when people want to be here and how much time they want to spend here. … It is something that I think has worked out well.

It is one of those things that people say is mutually beneficial.”

He said that between the two Sullivan & Son locations, in Royal Oak and Utica, they currently have close to a dozen employees over the age of 65, and while a few — including his father, his uncle and McLaughlin — are actually funeral directors, many have come into the industry as a second career. Often, the seniors are retired firefighters, police officers, nurses, pastors, etc. Lope said they often find their senior employees through their community connections with schools, churches and events. He said that, generally, someone will simply tell them they are interested in some extra work, and they don’t typically have to advertise for the positions.

According to Lope, funeral assistants are critical to their organization, doing things such as helping to direct people to where they need to go, and assisting families during visitations and other tasks during funeral services, such as bringing flowers or caskets into the parlor, church or cemetery.

“We always look for folks that are good in the community and understand what we’re doing and trying to do,” said Lope. “Most of them are, I would guess, late 60s to mid 70s.

So, somewhere between 65 and 80, but still super useful in the fact that they’re all very sharp communicators and able to do what they need to do. … Over the years they’ve been a group of people we look to hire.

They’ve been very helpful. … They become very polished and very understanding of what families need and what their expectations are and what funeral service is all about.

It’s been a great fit for us. … It’s really kind of a cool gig for a lot of the seniors that work with us.”

Binkowski summed up some of the admiration: “Just that they’re that age and they’re still sharp, when I forgot my keys coming in.”

materials used in the construction. They also addressed residents’ concerns about electrical work and dumpsters.

Vaglica said there are no variances on the site plan. The only thing changed was they added an entrance on Jefferson that was previously on Ridgeway Street.

In the traffic study, they compared the traffic flow of the condominium with a restaurant development, a retail development and a gas station development. Vaglica said the findings showed the condominium had the least amount of trips per day with 182 trips.

Vaglica said the city needed a more in-depth environmental study, hence the hiring of Applied Environmental. Gatien said on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 having the worst contamination, the Jefferson site is at a 3.

He explained that groundwater contamination is localized to specific areas in the site. In total, there were three areas in the site that were above criteria set up by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy. Other locations were below criteria, Gatien said, but above vapor inclusion screening levels put out by the state.

“In order to allow for a safe development, a vapor barrier of some sort or a vapor mitigation system or complete removal of the soil and groundwater (is needed), which is not the easiest thing to do,” Gatien said. “So a lot of sites in development stages end up having some type of mitigation for vapor.”

Gatien added there are a lot of properties out there like this that have different levels of contamination.

“I wouldn’t call this minimal; minimal, but a 3 out of 10 is definitely able to handle the obstacles that you have to do during development and it’s pretty much soil removal,” Gatien said. “Groundwater is not very prevalent so if it does collect it gets pumped out and disposed of properly.”

They also did three borings on the far west area of the property to see if the contamination could migrate into the residential areas.

“And at each one of those three locations, we didn’t find groundwater; it was all clay down to 20 feet,” Gatien said. “We sampled the soil at each spot and didn’t have any sign of contamination at those locations.”

The shadow study presented by Vaglica showed it would not affect the residences in the area. The shadow was generated using a software program and according to Vaglica, it was not manipulated by them. The study showed “minimal shadows passed the parking lot only during the early morning hours between May and July,” according to Vaglica.

Vitale said that he asked for the shadow study because concerns were raised before about the shadow.

Vaglica said the building is 90% made of brick.

“In the industry we refer to it as brick veneer, being that it’s a veneer that you put but it’s full brick,” Vaglica said.

Caron warned that there isn’t going to be much more interaction with the residents after the meeting.

“I think what you stated was appropriate is that if there are other concerns it goes through community development and Ms. Pike to work on a resolution,” Caron said. “You just can’t take all these inputs and then change things around after you guys vote on something.”

it better than most right now, but arguably the biggest impact has come from their leadership in building the chemistry of this tight-knit group.

“I feel like this year is definitely a lot closer,” Jensen said. “I loved all the girls last year, especially the seniors that graduated, and we’re still really close, but with the seniors, and there’s a lot of seniors on the team, too, and the majority of our stronger players are younger. It’s kind of like a family because we’re taking care of them and making sure they’re getting what they need and learning what they need to learn.”

Support has arguably been the biggest contribution to this Lakeview squad, and look no further than the emergence of some of their standout sophomores this season.

Lakeview came into the season without a setter in place, which is something that easily could’ve been the downfall of their play this year, but sophomore setter Cece Decker ran away with the position.

Decker has been one of the most lethal players in Macomb County in the assist department, and the core of Wirick, Pouttu and Solomon have led to a dangerous combination on the hitting end.

Volleyball from page 27A

To add to that already established hitting group, sophomore Emma Mulrenin came in and made her presence felt early.

Mulrenin’s older sister Stella, a 2022 Lakeview graduate, was a force for the volleyball squad during her tenure, and she has picked up right where her sister left off.

The sophomores are carrying their weight of responsibility, and the rest of the team is taking notice.

“We didn’t have a setter coming in this year, so we were trying to figure it out over the summer,” Wirick said. “We had a lot of workouts and these things called four-on-ones, which is four players working with one coach, and Cece (Decker) came in and worked every single day to get better. She earned the spot she has. She’s a great girl. She works really hard, and same with Emma (Mulrenin). Her sister came, so everyone knew who she was and expected a lot, and she swings as hard as she can whenever she can, and holds herself accountable.”

Support from this team has come in all facets, especially from senior Kylee Pfeifer.

Pfeifer has had to transition her senior leadership from a coach’s point of view after sustaining an ACL, meniscus and patella tendon injury five months ago but is continuing to be a vocal leader for her squad.

“It’s very strange,” Pfeifer said. “I’ve been playing since I was seven, so it’s a very strange transition from being in the game to being on the sidelines and having to support from afar.”

Pfeifer still holds out hope that she might be able to return

for districts, which would be a major return for Lakeview to add onto this already loaded roster.

Now 12-2 on the season, Lakeview picked up a crucial league win over Clinton Township Chippewa Valley on Sept.

12 at Chippewa Valley High School.

Chippewa Valley took the first two games, but Lakeview rebounded with three-straight to earn the match win.

“I am so proud my girls found a way to fight back in what turned out to be a street brawl between both teams,” Pfeifer said. “Swing after swing, dig after dig, it was a great

match to watch and Chippewa Valley played extremely well.”

Decker tallied 49 assists and 14 digs while Wirick and Mulrenin collected 12 and 16 kills respectively. Jensen was pivotal on the backline, earning 35 digs and 25 serve receptions while Mulrenin also earned 15 digs and 26 serve receptions.

Solomon earned 46 attacks and seven kills in the win.

Lakeview will carry their momentum into the War in the Shores match on Sept. 19 against St. Clair Shores Lake Shore before resuming league play against Port Huron Northern on Sept. 20.

from 6-9 p.m. The speed ring is a rare opportunity to see race cars from every era perform on the Concourse track.

The momentum continues on Friday with on-track activities featuring various classifications of supercars, endurance race cars, vintage Indy race cars and Le Mans race cars. Corvette fans will want to stay for the Corvette parade laps at 12:50 p.m., along with the Reeves Callaway tribute, set for 12:25 p.m. Callaway founded Callaway Cars and was well known in the Corvette community.

“He passed away suddenly earlier this year,” McGrane said. “We’ll have six of his race cars from when he raced on display.”

Among the many activities on Saturday will be a parade lap featuring Ford GTs and GT40 sports cars, among more speed ring events. The festival will finish out Sunday with an awards ceremony, an art expo, an Americans at Le Mans seminar, a vintage Indy seminar and more.

“There are so many great cars out there,” said McGrane. But if he had to pick his favorite model, he said it would be “the 1959 Aston Martin DBR1.”

McGrane, who grew up in Kent, England, in the southeastern part of the country, remembers the look of the luxury sports car, which gained fame for the James Bond movies.

“It was sort of a brand I was fond of when I was a young boy,” McGrane said. “I grew up very close to a racetrack. Cars were something that made an impression on me very early in my life.”

For more information about the American Speed Festival — including admission fees to the various events, off-site parking and shuttles — visit m1concourse.com or call (248) 326-9999. For information about entering your car in the Speed Ring, email the car selection committee at asfcarselection@m1concourse.com.

led the defensive unit with eight tackles and three tackles for a loss, while senior defensive tackle James Brown tallied seven tackles and three tackles for a loss.

Junior defensive back Zachary Senter had an interception in the win.

Lake Shore’s improvement has been its balanced play on both sides of the field, averaging 22 points per game offensively and allowing just over 13 points per game.

The Shorians will look to continue their impressive play on Sept. 15 when they face a winless Warren Fitzgerald squad at Fitzgerald High School to continue their five-week stretch of league opponents.

the house,” Woolf said. “We would’ve ran the clock out to claim a victory, but instead it gave Stevenson the opportunity at a crazy big shot leading to their win. My teammates were a big help with Jasen Messenger telling me to go down.”

Woolf was instrumental on both sides of the ball, including the Lakeview run game that continuously dominated Roseville throughout the matchup.

Senior running back Branden Harris was unstoppable on the ground, rushing for 179 yards and a touchdown in the win.

Sophomore quarterback Gavin McKee connected with Harris for a 40-yard pass on the first drive of the game, and Harris finished it off with a 10-yard touchdown run to take an early lead.

Roseville would answer on a pick-six by Nigil Clark and tack on an 18-yard rushing touchdown by Bryan Weathersby to take a 12-7 lead, but Harris would break a 64-yard run to set up a 6-yard touchdown run by junior Aidan Daniels. Weathersby ran for two touchdowns while Desmond Straughton and Anthony Scott each recorded a score in the loss for Roseville.

Daniels, once a starting guard for

Lakeview, transitioned to tight end this season, and then made the switch to running back the week of the Roseville matchup. It’s safe to say it paid off for Threet, as Daniels tallied two touchdowns in the win.

Lakeview’s run game was the difference maker, and Harris said their running back corps liked what they saw from the Roseville defense.

“They were pretty spaced out on their defensive line, which opened up opportunities for us to run off tackle,” Harris said. “To say the least, we took advantage of those opportunities.”

Lakeview will face Utica on Sept. 15 at Utica High School, as the Huskies continue their five-week stretch of league play.

Lakeview is currently in a three-way tie for first in the MAC White with Harrison Township L’Anse Creuse and Grosse Pointe South, which Lakeview will face back-toback in their final two league games.

It’s a massive step in the right direction for Lakeview after suffering a 36-6 loss to Sterling Heights Stevenson the week before.

Senior David Osagiede, who tallied 11 tackles and two tackles for a loss in the win, said the team was determined to come out on top.

“The win was worked for,” Osagiede said. “We wanted to make the last year for this turf memorable.”

“Zoe Granger exemplifies what it means to be a Girl Scout,” Monica Woodson, the CEO of the Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan, said in a press release. “She saw a need and created a project that made a positive impact in our community. She generously offered her time and leadership experience to our Girl Scouts. Zoe inspires all of us to do more for others.”

YAPPY HOUR TO BE HELD SEPT. 21 ROCHESTER HILLS — Metro Detroiters are invited to Meadow Brook Hall’s sprawling gardens 6-9 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 21, to support the Michigan Animal Rescue League at its 14th annual Yappy Hour.

Attendees will enjoy cocktails, culinary delights, gourmet treats, several photo opportunities, a silent auction and more while mingling with two- and four-legged guests throughout the fundraiser.

HOPE NOT HANDCUFFS SEEKS VOLUNTEERS

METRO DETROIT — The Families Against Narcotics flagship program Hope Not Handcuffs is seeking volunteers.

Hope Not Handcuffs allows anyone who is struggling with a substance use disorder to go to any of the nonprofit’s 125-plus participating law enforcement agencies or community partners and ask for help, according to a release.

Families Against Narcotics then dispatches a volunteer “Angel” to meet the participant at their location, offer support, and work with the Hope Not Handcuffs call center on getting people placed into treatment, according to the release.

“If you’re a compassionate person who would like to be an Angel and make a difference in someone’s life, FAN can use you,” the release states.

For more information, call 833-202-HOPE (4673) or email hnh@ familiesagainstnarcotics.org.
