Township residents
to vote on library millage renewal, increase Aug. 5
BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
OAKLAND TOWNSHIP — Oakland Township is asking residents to consider two library millages on the Aug. 5 ballot.
Rochester Hills Public Library Director Juliane Morian said the library’s current temporary agreement for library services with the township expires at the end of the year.
“For more than 50 years, Oakland Township and the Rochester Hills Public Library have been community partners, and we are hopeful that partnership continues for decades to come,” Morian said.
On Aug. 5, Oakland Township voters will be asked to consider renewing part of the township’s current library millage (0.1134 mills) and to consider approving an increase (0.1412 mills) that the Rochester Hills Public Library Board requested last year, but was not included on last November’s ballot.
As a result of the proposed millage increase, officials said a home with a market value of $500,000 and a taxable value of $250,000 would pay $35 more each year in taxes.
Both the renewal and the new millage, accord-

Orion Road closed at Dutton following storm damage
BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
OAKLAND TOWNSHIP — Last week’s record rainfall prompted the closure of Orion Road, at Dutton Road, in Oakland Township as crews assess the damage.
The July 16 storm flooded many areas in metro Detroit, including Oakland Township, where it washed away a portion of Dutton Road.
The storm, according to officials, was considered a 200-year rain event — meaning the area is expected to see that much rain in that amount of time only every 200 years or so.
“(It was) something like almost 6 inches of rain in about an hour that led to all this flooding, which is pretty unusual in this part of the world,” said Craig Bryson, the spokesman for the Road Commission for Oakland County.

FINE ART AT THE VILLAGE RETURNS JULY
26-27
BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
ROCHESTER HILLS — Art enthusiasts will gather at the Village of Rochester Hills July 26-27 for the 21st annual Fine Art at The Village.
Donna Beaubien, the executive director of Fine Art at The Village, said the outdoor shopping center will be transformed into an artistic haven.
During the festival, over 70 artists will display and sell their work in a variety of mediums — including ceramics, glasswork, paintings, drawings, mixed media, sculptures, photography, fiber art, woodwork, jewelry and more.
“The goal of the art fair is to bring art to the community,” Beaubien said. “People in Oakland County have always supported the arts.” Artists featured in the show come from all across the nation to participate in the juried art show, curated by the team behind the Village Fine Art Gallery.
Locally, Danielle Rancilio, of Rochester Hills, will bring her handcrafted ceramics to the show.
“This is my first time at the show, and it’s the first juried show that I’ve ever done, so I’m

DELIGHTS OF HOLLAND
BY GREG TASKER
HOLLAND, MI — There’s no shortage of sandy shores or charming beach towns along the Lake Michigan coastline.
Ask any avid Michigan beach goer to share their favorite sunbathing spot or lakeside town and they’ll likely have a favorite or two.
Lately, I’ve been touting the delights of Holland, a spiffy, handsome community more famous for its colorful tulips and Dutch heritage than its beaches and resort
amenities. At least that’s what I thought.
Imagine my surprise late last summer when I ventured beyond the Lake Michigan beaches to explore downtown Holland and discovered much more than a beach town. Holland’s tree- and flower-lined streets are home to upscale shops, al fresco dining, public art and much more.
Holland’s vibe may be a bit more sophisticated than that of other beach communities along Lake Michigan, but it’s no less welcoming.

very excited about it,” she said.
Rancilio, the artist behind The Crone Ceramics, has worked with clay as a hobby for many years, but said she recently got more serious about her craft within the last couple of years. She specializes in functional pottery, including mugs, vases, bowls, spoon rests, trinket dishes and more, all crafted from the new pottery studio in
her home.
Rancilio said she lives close to the Village of Rochester Hills and loves to attend the art fair.
“I go every year with my family, and I thought it would be so cool to be able to be part of something that our whole community gets together for. I love that, and I’m really excited to be a part of that,” she said.
Other local artists featured in the show include fabric artist Laura Rangos, of Rochester, and photographer James Parker, of Rochester Hills.

Library Millage Renewal Proposal
Shall the previously authorized increase in tax limitation on all taxable property in the Charter Township of Oakland, Oakland County, that expires in 2025 be renewed and the Township be authorized to levy annually an amount not to exceed .1134 mill ($0.1134 per each $1,000 of taxable value) against all taxable property in the Township for a period of four (4) years, 2026 through 2029, inclusive, to provide funds for providing library service for the residents of the Charter Township of Oakland as authorized by the Oakland Township Library Board and for all other library purposes authorized by law? The estimate of the revenue the Township will collect if the millage is approved and levied in the first year of levy (2026) is approximately $235,000. Revenue from this millage levy may be distributed to the Rochester Hills Public Library pursuant to contract.
Library Millage Proposal
Shall the tax limitation on all taxable property within the Charter Township of Oakland, Oakland County, Michigan, be increased and the Township be authorized to levy annually a new additional millage in an amount not to exceed .1412 mill ($0.1412 per each $1,000 of taxable value) against all taxable property in the Township for a period of five (5) years, 2025 through 2029, inclusive, to provide funds for providing library service for the residents of the Charter Township of Oakland as authorized by the Oakland Township Library Board and for all other library purposes authorized by law? The estimate of the revenue the Township will collect if the millage is approved and levied in the first year of levy (2025) is approximately $289,000. Revenue from this millage levy may be distributed to the Rochester Hills Public Library pursuant to contract.

ing to Morian, must pass this year to ensure the continuation of Oakland Township residents’ library services past Dec. 31, 2025.
“The reality is that if both the millage renewal and the increase do not pass, the Oakland Township Library Board cannot fulfill the contract terms that the RHPL Board and Oakland Township Library Board mutually decided to be fair terms. If they cannot sign a new agreement, the old contract terminates on Dec. 31, 2025, and Oakland Township patrons would lose library privileges on Jan. 1, 2026. No one wants to see that outcome, but it is a reality and a consequence for which we have to plan,” Morian said.
Oakland Township Library Board
President Jim Kiefer said he thinks “it’s a fair request” on the part of the Rochester Hills Public Library Board to ask Oakland Township for an increase.
“The reason Rochester Hills Public Library is asking for the increase is — along with their infrastructure improvements, which are being paid for by the recent Rochester Hills millage increase from last year — they are increasing the programming and materials budgets that go along with operations, and they are asking Oakland Township to help toward that,” Kiefer said.
“We think it’s a fair request, and we think it’s worth putting on the ballot for voters in Oakland Township to decide.”
According to the Friends of Oakland Township, passing the millages would help fund an “increase in new materials with a
renewed focus on more digital materials and shorter wait times, year-round Sunday hours, upgraded bookmobile services, more programming, and additional delivery methods for patrons.”
Morain said that, “with an increase in funding, we’re planning to expand the materials available for checkout with specific investment in more e-books, e-audio-books and streaming music and movies; and the library will enhance our programs and modernize the building and bookmobiles so that people can pursue their lifelong learning goals and enjoy remote places to work, separate from their home and school.”
The library serves the residents of Rochester, Rochester Hills and Oakland Township. While all three municipalities pay tax money to operate the library, Morian said the communities of Rochester and Oakland Township do not have a vote on the library board, according to the charter, since they contract with the library for services. The contracts mean the three communities receive equal access to library services and materials, even though the actual amount paid by each municipality varies. Oakland Township and Rochester pay for services only. They do not pay for capital infrastructure.
“Even with the proposed increase, Oakland Township would still have one of the lowest total library millage rates of surrounding communities, including Rochester Hills, Orion Township, Auburn Hills and Washington Township,” Kiefer added.
For more information on when, how and where to vote, call the Oakland Township Clerk’s Office (248) 218-6953 or visit https://oaklandtwpmi.gov/services/elec tions.
Lemonade stand raises over $900 for flood relief
ROCHESTER HILLS — A group of energetic young friends recently came together to make a big difference — one sweet treat at a time.
In just three hours, children from the Price, Cary, Coscarelli, Conroy, Sanders/Moore, Philip, Williams and Gharib families raised $943 for the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund by selling lemonade, snow cones and homemade baked goods.
The kids worked side by side to design colorful signs, mix up batches of lemonade, bake goodies, set fair prices, and enthusiastically serve every customer with a smile. Each child brought their own talents to the table, whether it was running the snow cone machine, pouring lemonade, handling money, or flagging down potential customers, the families said. Their collaboration and dedication turned a simple idea into a powerful act of kindness — and a fun, unforgettable summer day that made a real impact, they said.
BIGLER CEMETERY TO HOLD 200TH REMEMBRANCE AND HISTORICAL MARKER DEDICATION
OAKLAND TOWNSHIP — Join officials in a celebration of history with cemetery tours, refreshments and a special dedication for the new Michigan Historical Marker for Bigler Cemetery July 29. Tours begin at 4 p.m., with a dedication at 4:30 p.m. Parking is available on Gunn Road.
KIDS WHO CARE SWIM-A-THON RAISES FUNDS FOR SPECIAL OLYMPICS
ROCHESTER — Nearly 100 swimmers participated in the second annual Kids Who Care of MI swim-a-thon July 11 at Heart of the Hills Swim Club to raise funds for the Special Olympics. Approximately 95 swimmers completed 4,446 laps, to swim approximately 69 miles. They raised around $7,000 for the Special Olympics and also donated a tote full of school supplies for the Rochester Area Neighborhood House
In the lane next to them, swim coach Aaron Helander reportedly broke a world record by completing 400 strokes of butterfly.
Kayla Bauman, 13, started Kids Who Care of MI two years ago after having a hard time finding ways to volunteer as a kid.
“I wanted to make something so that kids could do service projects in their community and have fun while doing it with their friends,” she said in an email.
Heart of the Hills Swim Club, where Bauman swims, let the group host its first annual swim-a-thon at the swim club last year. At that time, it raised $3,000 for the Special Olympics.
EXPERIENCE THE MAGIC OF MOVIES IN THE MOONLIGHT
ROCHESTER — Although the Movies in the Moonlight series kicked off July 19, families and friends have two more nights to enjoy the big screen under the stars.
Upcoming movies include: “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” (PG-13), sponsored by Fredal Orthodontics July 26; and “Moana 2” (PG), sponsored by Genisys Credit Union, Aug. 2. Organizers said movies rated PG-13 are edited versions whenever possible; however, parental guidance is still recommended.
Movies in the Moonlight will take place in a new location this year, on the upper level of the east parking platform, at the corner of East Fourth and East Street.
Featured movies begin around 8:30 p.m., and pre-shows start at 8 p.m. Admission is free. The movie lot opens at 7 p.m. People should bring their own chairs. The Little Donut Factory will be serving up concessions during each movie night, but people can bring their own goodies — no alcohol or glass containers are allowed in the movie lot.
For more information about the movie pre-show activities, visit DowntownRochesterMI.com or call (248) 656-0060.

You could spend long afternoons apres-beach browsing Holland’s nine-block downtown, where you’ll find everything from men’s and women’s clothing to home accents and gifts to Dutch souvenirs. Beach towels and chairs, and T-shirts — staples of any beach town — are less prominent here.
Maybe that’s because Holland’s beaches are a short drive away. The city doesn’t sit on the shores of Lake Michigan but on the shores of Lake Macatawa. Neighborhoods border the 1,700-acre inland lake, which connects to the great lake by a channel.
Downtown Holland impressed me for many reasons: the mix of architecture styles from the late 19th and early 20th century, including examples of Italianate, Late Victorian and Renaissance Revival; a vibrant, walkable downtown and the one-of-a-kind retailers who add to the sense of being somewhere beyond Michigan.
This is not a beach town that rolls up the sidewalks in the off season. In the winter, an underground heating system — known as Snowmelt — melts the snow and ice on downtown streets and sidewalks. It’s the largest municipally run snowmelt system in North America.
Downtown shopping
Stores like the Holland Clock Company and Nelis’ Dutch Village add European charm. The Holland Clock
Company sells handcrafted German clocks, beer steins, nutcrackers, and ornaments. Nelis’ Dutch Village offers a huge selection of Dutch gifts, Delftware, souvenirs, imported foods and snacks, and, yes, wooden shoes. You can also sample some 20 Dutch cheeses and have your wooden shoes personalized. The aisles at Out of the Box are lined with toys, puzzles, board games and more.
There are, of course, familiar resort town shops, peddling iconic Michigan summer staples. They include Cherry Republic for all things cherry, and Kilwins for chocolate, fudge and ice cream. They share the streets with locally based food purveyors like Crane’s in the City, well-known regionally for its various fruit pies. The family-owned shop on Eigth Street also sells sandwiches, salads and other desserts. The Holland Peanut Store, run by the same family — the Fabianos — for more than a century, is a sweet treat for all ages, selling homemade chocolates, fresh roasted nuts and nostalgic candy.
Restaurant scene
Holland’s restaurant scene is diverse, with many eateries offering alfresco dining along the city’s main downtown thoroughfare. You’ll find everything from traditional American and pub fare to deep dish Chicago pizza to Asian and Mexican offerings.
I especially enjoyed the tapas at Poquito. The star of the meal was the 36-hour braised beef short ribs served with crispy brussels sprouts; tangy Rioja jus enhanced the flavor of beef so tender it fell apart.
One lazy afternoon, I popped into New Holland Brew-
ing Co., a downtown staple, to check out the beer selection. Full Circle, a Kolsch-style ale, one the craft brewer’s legacy brands, quenched my thirst after a long day on the beach. No visit here would not be complete without sampling Dutch-influenced fare. For traditional tastes, try a klompen cake (a buttermilk pancake-like treat) or saucijzenbroodjes (Dutch sausage rolls) at the two locations of deBoer’s Bakkerij (bakery). Breakfast was so filling, I never made it back to sample other “Dutch Stuff” on the lunch menu. “A Taste of the Old Country,” a combination of a croquette, a pig in a blanket, a cup of pea soup and a slice of Dutch mild gouda cheese — sounded tempting.
Dutch heritage
In the spring, Holland transforms into a floral paradise, as more than 5 million tulips bloom in the gardens and parks, celebrating its Dutch heritage. One of the best venues to enjoy the tulips is Windmill Island Gardens. By summertime, of course, the tulips are long gone but the gardens remain well worth a visit. The gardens are replanted with annuals after tulip time. You’ll see dozens of varieties in themed beds. The well-manicured gardens are also home to Tour De Zwaan, the only authentic Dutch windmill operating in the country. The windmill still turns and grinds wheat into flour. From the top of the five-story windmill, you can take in views of the 36-acre park.
Stop at De Klomp Wooden Shoe & Delft Factory to buy a pair of traditional wooden shoes or Delftware pottery with its distinctive blue designs.

Michigan Family Physician Diagnosed with Late-Stage Cancer After Experiencing is One Symptom
(South eld, MI) It’s a terrifying reality: a life-threatening illness could be silently developing inside your body, completely undetected by routine check-ups. By the time symptoms appear, especially cancer, the disease is often advanced, limiting treatment options.
LATE DETECTION
is agonizing truth was personally experienced by Dr. Warren Ringold, a respected family physician and the visionary behind Bionicc Body Screening. He shockingly discovered he had stage four cancer with tumors as large as softballs, only after experiencing shortness of breath. His brutal treatments and subsequent brain tumor recurrence ignited a profound mission: there had to be a better way to nd serious conditions before they became critical.
FULL BODY MRI SCANS
Dr. Ringold founded Bionicc Body Screening in 2022, establishing Michigan’s rst MRI full body screening center. His purpose was to empower individuals with groundbreaking insights into their health through advanced body screening
technologies. Today, his son, Ryan, passionately carries on this mission and understands the urgency: “We all know someone who awoke with an unexplained symptom and discovered they had stage four cancer. Once you have symptoms, cancer is usually advanced,” he states. “My father never wanted another person to su er from late detection. He wanted to save lives.”
71% OF TUMORS GROW UNDETECTED
While annual physicals are important, they have critical limitations. Standard screenings only detect about 29% of cancers, leaving a staggering 71% to potentially develop undetected in other areas of your body. Bionicc Body Screening o ers a comprehensive solution. Proactive full-body MRI screenings provide an unparalleled picture of your
internal health, going beyond traditional checkups. State-of-the-art MRI technology can detect tumors as small as a pea, along with aneurysms, stroke risk, and hundreds of other conditions that might otherwise go unnoticed. ese comprehensive scans image your head through the pelvis. MRI scans are safe, noninvasive, and emit absolutely no radiation. And, crucially, they are available without a doctor’s referral.
A LIFE SAVED
Mark B. was initially skeptical, but his proactive screening revealed a 3 cm lung mass that tested positive for cancer. He credits the scan for saving his life after three-fourths of his lung was removed. e fee for a full body MRI is an investment in your health and wellbeing, but the true cost of delaying could be far greater.

PCCA embraces creating ‘in the open air’ with latest exhibition
BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com
ROCHESTER — Paint Creek Center for the Arts is highlighting the practice of painting outdoors in its newest exhibition, “Plein Air,” on display in the PCCA’s gallery through Aug. 7.
“En plein air” is a French expression meaning “in the open air” and refers to the act of painting outdoors with the artist’s subject in full view.
“Plein Air” features the artwork of 20 members of PCCA’s Paint Creek Plein Air Painters group, which formed during the pandemic in the spirit of creating and connecting while practicing social distancing protocols.
In its first five years, the group has grown from a collective of eight artists to over 80 who regularly meet and paint through the summer and fall.
“Plein Air” will include more than 90 works from the group’s book, “Paint Creek Plein Air Painters: Works from the Rochester-Based Group,” which will be sold in limited quantities in PCCA’s Art Market.
“We’re excited for everyone to see both the exhibition and the Plein Air Painters book,” PCCA’s Executive Director Shaun Hayes said in a press release. “The Plein Air group is comprised of a very passionate collection of our PCCA artists. With their unique styles and talents, they’ve done an incredible job of capturing the scenery of the Rochester community.”
The exhibition will be on display at the PCCA during business hours through Aug. 7. An artist talk led by instructor and artist Charles Pompilius is scheduled alongside a closing reception 6-8 p.m. Aug. 7.
The exhibition is made possible through the National Endowment for the Arts, Art Works, and the Michigan Arts & Culture Council.
More information about the exhibition can be found at https://pccart.org/2025-plein-air-exhibi tion.

The beaches
And then there’s the beaches, which drew me to Holland in the first place. The primary beaches are Holland State Park and Tunnel Park, both on Lake Michigan and a short drive from downtown. There are other beaches, of course, but either of these is a solid choice for a summer day of sunshine, sand and water activities.
Tunnel Park is located north of the state park and is named after a tunnel that cuts through a dune to reach the expansive, sandy shoreline. The park also has a playground, a dune climb and a dune stairway that leads to scenic views of Lake Michigan.
The 142-acre Holland State Park boasts beaches on both Lake Michigan and Lake Macatawa. Kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddleboard rentals are available at the Macatawa Boathouse. At the park pavilion, Beachplace Cafe and Shop rents chairs, umbrellas, beach wagons and volleyballs. The cafe serves standard beach fare — burgers, fries and more, and the gift shop stocks sunscreens, inflatable beach toys, snorkels and masks.
Downtown Holland may create the sense of being worlds away, but the beaches — especially Holland State Park with its views of the iconic Red Lighthouse — will remind you of exactly where you are.

SPOTLIGHT ON BUSINESS
Family ties drive local auto repair shops
BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com
METRO DETROIT — When Bill Griffin, who owns Griffin’s Neighborhood Auto Clinic in Farmington Hills, injured his back in 2009, he was unable to work for a period of time.
The shop had only been open for two years, so his younger brother, Tom Griffin, stepped in to handle the business until Griffin got back on his feet.
“Had it not been for my brother the shop would have failed,” Griffin said.
Griffin’s Neighborhood Auto Clinic, located at 23905 Freeway Park Dr., offers many services. Talented staff members offer auto repair; suspension, steering and alignment; cooling system and engine repair; brake services and
more on everyday cars as well as classic cars and hot rods.
Family ties are a main reason why Griffin’s Neighborhood Auto Clinic has been a success. Along with his brother’s help, Griffin’s two daughters, Kelsey and Hannah, worked at the front counter of the shop after school. Doing clerical work and running for parts were among their many responsibilities. They also had to remember working with their dad came with boundaries.
“When you’re here, I’m your boss and not your dad,” he reminded them.
His daughters are now married with their own families and careers and no longer work at the shop. Their presence is missed, and their hard work over the years added to the growth of the family business.
“They did bring a good element to the shop and a

Village of Rochester Hills Transformed Into Outdoor Art Gallery
Fine Art at the Village of Rochester Hills, MI NE corner of Walton and Adams
Saturday, July 26th 10am - 6pm & Sunday, July 27th Noon - 6pm
e charming location of the Village of Rochester Hills shopping center will be transformed into an outdoor art gallery when it hosts the 21st Annual Fine Art at the Village of Rochester Hills on Saturday, July 26 and Sunday, July 27, 2025.
is outstanding juried art show is curated by the same people who have established the Village Fine Art Gallery located in the Village of Rochester Hills – assuring that this summer event is of the highest caliber.
Over 60 artists from across the United States have been invited to show their work at Fine Art at the Village of Rochester Hills. An outside panel of experts juried the entries and asked artists with the highest scores to participate. Free admission, free parking, free entertainment, free children’s activities. Located on the NW corner of the parking lot, behind Bravo’s rear entrance.
Artwork in every media will be featured including ceramics, glass, painting, drawing, multi – media, sculpture, photography, ber art, wood, jewelry and more. Creative Arts Council, a non-pro t art group, sponsors the juried art festival.
Again this year, there will be plastic Easter Eggs hidden around the art fair. Some eggs will contain $1.00 Bills and others will contain $25.00 & $100.00 Coupons can be used as cash at artist’s booths only.
little more of a draw. They played an integral role in building the company,” Griffin said. “We were one big family working here.”
His ex-wife also was heavily involved in the family business and Griffin said she deserves much of the credit for helping to build Griffin’s Neighborhood Auto Clinic. For many years, Griffin, an Automotive Service Excellence master certified technician, worked for other people and used that experience to open up his own garage. He likes the variety the business brings.
“Every day is a different day,” Griffin said. “You never know what you’re going to do from day to day.”
‘I’d do it again in a heartbeat’
Family bonds also added strength at B&B Collision, located at 919 South Main St., in Royal Oak.
On July 1, 1977, Randy Booden and his father, Bill Booden, went into business together. They had both been working for different car dealerships and when Bill asked his son if he wanted to start a family business, Booden told him, “You bet.” They took their passion for cars and created B&B Collision, a family-owned auto repair facility offering a number of services including collision repair. Nearly 50 years ago, Royal Oak looked a lot different than it does today.
“It was a ghost town,” Booden said.
But the Boodens settled on Main Street because of the other auto-related businesses they neighbored with, including a transmission shop and a radiator store. B & B Collision employs a number of experienced and highly-trained certified technicians. The state-of-the-art repair facility, managed by Nick Olsowy, uses high-tech equipment.
One year after B&B Collision opened for business, they recruited Booden’s sister, Wendy Tomassi, to work as the office manager. Even on their busiest days, they are able to separate the work they do from their personal lives. Depending on each person’s strengths, the family members took on different roles.
“I guess just being familiar with the other person, you know how to work with them,” Booden said. “We knew how to leave the shop and leave the work here. Outside the shop, we didn’t talk about business. What we talked about was family.”
But working with family also brought challenges.
“We have our differences of opinion. We were able to work it out,” Booden said. “We can put everything out on the table, sit there and yell at each other, and 10 minutes
later we’re fine. You can move forward.”
The trio worked together for many years until Bill retired. He passed away in 2008, and Booden and Tomassi carry on his legacy.
“He’s the one who taught me to be the person I am today,” Booden said. “I love it. I’d do it again in a heartbeat.”
Family bonds
Gil Harris opened up a family business when he found himself unemployed in 1990. He and his wife, Patricia, attended a franchise show and a new career was born when Gil opened Midas Auto Service and Tires at Eight Mile Road and Van Dyke Avenue in Warren 35 years ago.
“I didn’t know anything about the automotive world,” Gil said. “I knew how to deal with people.”
He worked 60- to 70-hour weeks, determined to make sure the business was profitable. Patricia encouraged her husband all along.
“She was confident in me. She was all for it. I was scared to death,” Gil remembered. “You put every ounce of your money and security into others’ lives and hope and pray like hell that it works.”
The gamble paid off because the family, including their son, Chris, was able to open four different Midas locations over the years with several highly skilled staff members. That first year, Gil was named National Rookie of the Year for Midas.
With support from Patricia and Chris, Gil eventually sold two of the shops and continues to operate two locations: 2995 E. Big Beaver Road in Troy, and 41300 Garfield Road in Clinton Township.
“I actually enjoy what I do,” Gil said. “It was a learning process. The franchise (representatives) helped. I know how to hire people that have anything to do with cars, oil changes to air conditioners, changing engines. I had to be able to provide security in their jobs. That’s what we do. My wife did the financial part, and I operated the hiring. I’m very happy.”
Currently, Chris is the general manager of the family franchise. He got his start running the Detroit location and fit right in with the automotive world. Gil is “mostly retired” and Patricia is “fully retired.” They are celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary this year. Working together proved positive for the Harris family, including Chris’ children.
“We always got along. We got along very well,” Gil said. “That doesn’t mean we don’t have some issues along the way. We sit down and work through the issues and come to an agreement on what needs to be done. It’s not always easy. Everyone is entitled to their opinions. Everyone has to find common ground.”
Your child’s education is vitally important. That education should go well beyond just reading, writing and arithmetic.

Deputies and the Rochester Hills Fire Department responded to the scene and rendered aid.

Orion Road
from page 1A
As the Road Commission works to identify the best way to repair the roadway and assess damage to the culvert underneath, Orion Road is closed at Dutton Road “until further notice,” Bryson said.
“We couldn’t really see the culvert until the water receded over the weekend — we had four pumps in there pumping the water out — but the water is finally getting low enough that we can finally take a look at the culvert and see whether or not it was damaged as a result of this,” he added.
The detour route is Rochester Road to Tienken Road to Adams Road, back to Orion Road, and vice versa.
At press time, Road Commission crews were clearing debris out of the culvert under Orion Road in hopes of restoring normal flow and inspecting the culvert. Utility companies also continue to work in the area to restore their services.
“We have to be out of the way so those companies can get in there and repair their services, which continues to happen,” Bryson said.
Before the Road Commission can do
any repairs to the road, it must consult with the Michigan Department of Energy, Great Lakes and the Environment, and any changes to the culvert under the road must be approved, since a waterway is involved. Also, any changes to waterflow at Orion Road could have impacts both up and downstream from the location.
“We’re a long way away from knowing what the solution is yet,” Bryson said. “We are still in the assessment phase.”
Road Commission Managing Director Dennis Kolar said the Road Commission appreciates the public’s patience as it works to determine the best way to repair the road.
“This flood event was unexpected, and we had not previously seen this type of flooding at this location,” he said.
As soon as the Road Commission has a better idea of what the solution will be, and how long it is expected to take, the information will be shared with the public.
“We simply do not yet have an estimated timeframe for when we will be able to repair and re-open the road,” Deputy Managing Director and County Highway Engineer Gary Piotrowicz said in a statement.
“We are very anxious to get this road re-opened,” he said. “And we greatly ap-
preciate the patience of the public as we work to identify the proper solution. The last thing we want to do, though, is to make a repair that causes additional problems in the future.”
Until then, officials are warning people to stay away from the washed-out section of road.
“It’s an unstable area, so it’s not safe to go walking around there,” Bryson added.
