The Saline Area Senior Center will host a St. Joseph Mercy Hospital program designed to help senior citizens with their balance.
The program is aimed at helping older adults reduce their fear of falling, while setting goals for increasing activity, encouraging small changes to reduce the risk of falls at home, and teaching ways to exercise to increase strength and balance.
The program is free and open anyone 60 and older, though there is a limit of 15 participants. Classes are offered from 9-11 a.m. on Wednesdays, from Jan. 19 to March. 9 at the Saline Area Senior Center, 7190 N. Maple Road (behind Saline Middle School). For more information to reserve your spot call 734-429-9274.
Overcast, with a high of 74 and low of 63 degrees. Clear for the morning, overcast in the afternoon, clear overnight.
Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
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.
