📰 News we're reading
• Chapaton keeps it clean (grossepointenews.com) — Grosse Pointe Park officials are highlighting major progress on sewer and flood-control upgrades, including a $2.8 million emergency valve at Patterson Park and a new $6.5 million sewer lining project. They're tying these investments to regional gains at St. Clair Shores' Chapaton Pump Station, which has gone a full year without combined sewer overflows into Lake St. Clair, helping protect local water quality and property values.
