• Dexter Twp. Addresses Concerns about UM land and Data Centers (thesuntimesnews.com) — Dexter Township is reassuring residents that University of Michigan land here, including Stinchfield Woods, is governed by long-standing deed restrictions focused on education and research, not data centers. Officials explain that changing UM's zoning immunity would require a supermajority in Lansing and a statewide vote, distinguishing this property from the separate data center proposal in Ypsilanti Township.
   

• Four scores, four ways: Chelsea football star torches biggest rival (mlive.com) — Dexter football fans saw their team fall 56-21 to rival Chelsea, despite a promising debut from sophomore quarterback Trey Penn, who threw three touchdown passes.
