The Saline Area Chamber of Commerce has a new executive director. Michelle Dugan, who served in the same capacity for the Monroe chamber, is the new executive director.
Dugan attended Wednesday's meeting of the Saline Coalition for Quality Community.
Dugan was hired in the wake of the resignation of Lynn Thomas Perry.
The Saline Area Chamber of Commerce serves businesses in the City of Saline and townships of Saline, Lodi, York and Pittsfield.
The chamber recently moved its offices to 100 E. Michigan Ave., in the space below Mac's Acadian Seafood Shack.

Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
Overcast, with a high of 83 and low of 58 degrees. Overcast for the morning, clear overnight.
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
