📰 News we're reading

• Explore: Novi Northwest Park (oaklandcounty115.com) — Novi residents have a newer neighborhood escape at Novi Northwest Park on Twelve Mile Road, featuring nearly a half-mile of gravel trails and a nature-inspired playground built from logs, rocks, and stumps. The 9.9-acre park, funded through city and grant support, was intentionally kept natural with prairie restoration and wooded paths after public input favored a low-impact, nature-focused design.
   

• Five Below agrees to pay $179,500 settlement over alleged Michigan pricing violations (cbsnews.com) — Shoppers in Novi should know that Five Below has agreed to pay $179,500 and tighten its pricing practices after Michigan officials documented scanner overcharges and missing price tags at stores statewide, including one in Novi. The settlement requires better staff training, internal and independent pricing audits, and tougher penalties for any repeat violations over the next three years.
