1. Future of Adelaide Pointe uncertain as competing court filings tell very different stories (wzzm13.com) — A crucial bankruptcy hearing this Wednesday could decide who controls Adelaide Pointe, the large and controversial waterfront development on Muskegon Lake. Competing court filings from developer Ryan Leestma, Independent Bank, and a court-appointed receiver outline sharply different stories about project finances, management, and looming environmental and city deadlines that could affect marina access and local investment.
   

2. Planners approve 48 apartments for Muskegon Lake development (mlive.com) — Muskegon’s Harbor 31 project is set to add 48 new apartments called The Meadows along the Muskegon Lake waterfront, with final city commission review expected May 13. Wetlands on the former industrial site forced a redesign, but planners approved the updated layout with conditions on parking, trees, stormwater, and public boardwalk access that will shape how residents use the shoreline.
   

3. Muskegon officials share update on flood response and how to report damage (wzzm13.com) — Flooding in Muskegon County has activated the county’s Emergency Operations Center, and officials are urging residents and businesses with damage to complete the online Damage Assessment Survey right away. Your reports help determine eligibility for state or federal aid and guide recovery resources. You’re also encouraged to call 2-1-1 for help and to watch out for contractor scams.
