Infrastructure and city services

Lansing’s roads and sidewalks have been terrible for years, and fixing city infrastructure is a top priority as we come out of the pandemic. Mayor Schor has fixed many of the main roads in Lansing and filled thousands of potholes. He is also working to convert some one-way streets to two-ways to ensure safety and to increase small business options for residents and visitors. Additionally, Mayor Schor restarted sewer separation to prevent pollution. Lansing also created the first Sustainability Manager to ensure climate action plan implementation and building efficiency. And Schor’s efforts to replace old lights with LED streetlights promote energy efficiency and save taxpayer dollars. 

Lansing is better when we collaborate with other departments, organizations, programs, community leaders, and communities to help our city thrive. Through partnerships with non-profits like Advent House and Holy Cross, and other communities like East Lansing, Schor provided more options for the unsheltered community. Schor also created the Mayor’s Racial Justice and Equity Alliance to address racial injustice and equity in Lansing, with committees consisting of community leaders in Training, Criminal Justice & Public Safety, Education & Youth Development, and more.  We will continue to build upon and create new partnerships to find the most effective and efficient solutions to some of Lansing’s most pressing challenges, and to provide adequate city service to our community.
