Neighborhood Planning Councils (NPCs) are resident-based groups that serve an important and specific purpose in our community. The purpose of Neighborhood Planning Councils is to provide a forum to inform and discuss with neighborhood residents and representatives of the City staff and City Commissioners, issues and concerns of that neighborhood. Generally, the City informs the NPC of facts and potential results of pending decisions, opportunities or other changes. The NPC discusses and decides what, if any, recommendations it would like to make or strategies they would like to develop.

“I’ve always loved to golf. But as my heart condition got worse, I couldn’t do much of anything anymore. Even walking across the room left me feeling tired and out of breath. Fortunately for me, the doctors at Bronson helped change all that. They told me about a new heart surgery called TAVR that could actually give me my life back. And that’s exactly what happened. Within days of my surgery at Bronson Methodist Hospital, I could walk without feeling out of breath, and I wasn’t tired anymore. My nurses, they were great, too. They talked to me, listened to me, even gave me pudding and popsicles in the middle of the night. Better yet, I’m back doing all the things I did before my heart condition: mowing the lawn, going to the gym and playing golf with the guys — terrible as ever.” Roy, Battle Creek, Michigan, September 17, 2014
Your heart condition may be treatable. Find out about the life-saving TAVR procedure at bronsonpositivity.com/heart.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lett this hap ppen to you! John M. of Batttle Creekk sold his car to an individuall (nott a reall company) and was veryy surprised to hear a weekk later that his car had been in an acciident, and HE WAS LIABLE. He found outt the hardd way because the buyyer did nott immeddiately insert his (the buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s)) name on the titlle (he left the space blank) the car was nott recordded as sold when the accident occurredd. Experts advise when you sell a vehhiclle, allways protect yourself by (1) onlyy sell to a reputabble company and (2) make sure thatt the buyer puts his name on the title BEFORE you siign.
