Ready for the upcoming Lansing primaries (Aug 5) and general election (Nov 4)? What Lansing Council, our favorite podcast, invited all the candidates to introduce themselves, give it a listen #lanstronauts youtube.com/watch?v=oxykeU…

love u guys <3 #LoveLansing

Planner Brent Toderian said: "The truth about a city’s aspirations isn’t found in its vision. It’s found in its budget." City of Lansing is asking for feedback on their budget, what is the city-wide budget? Here's one way to look at it: lansingography.com/2025/02/lansin…

Lansing just hit a decade-long low in permitting housing. Demand is constant and market analysis suggests we need >1,000 units built/year. We should be permitting more, incl 2-4 unit buildings #LoveLansing data: US Census Building Permits Survey, viz: housingdata.app

zoning changes proposed: here's a great summary from @Cedar500 -simplified zoning types where they were very similar -allow boarding home, co-ops, rooming houses, ADUs, cottage courts -and more

happy election day, Lanstronauts! To find your polling location or see your ballot, you can check the Michigan Voter Information Center #lansing #lansingvotes michigan.gov/Vote

MDOT is looking for input to improve understanding of the crashes involving VRUs (vulnerable road users--walking, biking, rolling non-motorized transport). VRUs are killed on Michigan roads at rates faster than other road users (ie drivers, passengers) survey123.arcgis.com/share/29a491c5…

happy 517 day to all of the lansings, including the best one #lovelansing #517day

Elections tomorrow! Your polling place might be different than expected: lansingvotes.gov/voting/voting-… LWV Q&A with candidates: dropbox.com/scl/fi/hbmwe5m…

@Treestryder here's an updated version that includes eaton! eaton/lansing have different parcel schemes and it took me a while to figure out how to reconflate them.

@lansingography Nicely done! Did the City of Lansing's open data portal not have this data for the parts of the city outside of Ingham County? 🤔

Cities rely on property taxes to fund services, and not all land generates the same value. Here's how Lansing stacks up: you can see the economic engines along Washington and Michigan as well as how prop values range across the city! lansingography.com/2023/11/most-v… #maps #lovelansing

City planners are working hard to envision a future MLK. Would you rather walk across 5 lanes or 6? City officials are collecting feedback on their designs lansingmi.gov/695/One-Way-to… #lansing #lovelansing #lovedowntown

@JPughMI it's purely proportional: votes for haley divided by total republican primary votes cast, and so forth. greater proportion is a darker color

@lansingography Awesome maps, can we get some insight into what the different shades mean?

last week's primary: of the motivated folks who showed up, who was on team Haley vs Trump? who was on team Biden vs uncommitted? #lovelansing

@lansingmichigan Might be a good time to remind drivers of the laws they are expected to follow: give cyclists at least 3 feet of space from side mirror, pedestrians have right of way in all crosswalks, stop before crosswalks, anything you want to add, @lansingmichigan ?

As the weather gets warmer and we move closer to spring, please keep the City of Lansing's transportation laws in mind.

@Cedar500 hungry hungry highway!

@lansingography It's also worth noting how it ate two roads as well. Washtenaw no longer exists between Butler and MLK, and Birch Street has entirely become SB MLK

In Lansing, MLK used to be a neighborhood street, lined with single family homes, apartments, and storefronts. MDOT tore down hundreds of buildings to expand it into the highway it is today. #lovelansing more: lansingography.com/2024/02/lansin…
