FLINT, Mich. — Plans to establish a state park inside the city of Flint are being coordinated by state and local officials. MLive reports that during a recent appearance with Mayor Sheldon Neeley, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer called it a great opportunity to develop Genesee County's first state park. Neeley says he “welcomes the state of Michigan's investment in Chevy Commons" and supports “the consideration for turning the area into a state park that would remain free and open to all Flint residents.”
