Here are the top stories in Plymouth-Canton today:

2. With more foot traffic, Northville will decide future of downtown street closures. Small sections of both Main Street and Center Street have been closed to cars since the summer of 2020, giving restaurants and shops more outdoor space when indoor dining was shut down. (WXYZ)
3. The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor was ranked as the top college in the nation for affordability and high quality, according to a report from Money's new "Best Colleges in America, Ranked By Value." (Michigan Patch)

About me: I was born and raised on Detroit's Westside, in the hard working blue-collar Polish neighborhood of Warrendale. I'm a Detroit Public School graduate who fought hard to earn my education. My aspiration into journalism came as a young kid, when I began following the corruption scandal of former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. My first break in to the journalism world began with the opportunity to work at the Michigan Journal, where I primarily reported on campus and local news throughout the Dearborn community. I eventually worked my way to news editor. So with first-hand experience growing up in a tight-knit neighborhood, I know the importance of delivering news and telling stories that impact local communities. And as a breaking news editor at Patch for Metro Detroit, it's my job to deliver that news. So feel free to contact me about news tips or your own unique experiences at dylan.siwicki@patch.com
