Dear Editor, It’s about time. I moved out of the Orion area partly because of the total ineffectiveness of the village council, and the abysmal traffic on Lapeer Road. A governmental body that tables every possible issue for further review; until they can ‘find? some obscure reason for saying ‘no? is not providing community service […]
Dear Editor, It is what it is! And I am not convinced yet. Don’t get me wrong I like JoAnn Van Tassel, I have known her for many years and I truly believe she has done a lot of very good things here. But the only thing moving forward in the Village is my taxes. […]

Dear Editor, On behalf of the Lake Orion Education Foundation, I want to thank The Lake Orion Review for all of their support. You have done an amazing job of helping us get the word out to the Lake Orion Community about the Foundation. Thank you for your promotion and coverage of our events and […]
Dear Editor, Being a cyclist, as well as a frequent driver on Michigan roads, I find Ms. Allen’s approach to bicycle/automobile safety disturbing. First, Ms. Allen claims that cyclists do not pay to operate their chosen mode of transportation on the roads. This is not true. While we may not pay to operate our bicycles […]
Brandon’s Adam Hyde and Ben Reed represented the Blackhawks? boys track team at the Division 2 state track meet June 5 at Caledonia. Hyde competed in the 300 meter hurdles and Reed in the 800 meter run, but neither finished among the top eight placers in their respective events. At the May 28 Oakland County […]
