Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Fraser public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Stephens Park concept plan
The city council approved a design services contract with AEW, giving Fraser First's long-sought Steffens Park project — amphitheater and walking path — a real path forward.
Senior Activity Center extended hours launch
Every single Senior Activity Center event in October is sold out — casino trips, luncheons, plays and the Detroit Zoo trip. Staff extended hours and are testing afternoon activities to keep up with demand.
New Fraser Public Library Bond
The library board wants to build a two-story, 13,000+ square-foot addition estimated at just over $7.5 million, repaid entirely by the 2022 library millage. Council liked the design but flagged overly optimistic financial forecasts and asked for firm bond counsel numbers by May.
Baseball field renovations and future rentals
Commissioners want to bring back Little Kickers and Little Sluggers leagues, but the Steffens Park fields can't legally be rented until they're renovated. They want a plan started now, before summer.
