A student, some experienced politicians and local challengers have set their sights on the Lansing City Council. Today the polls for the Lansing City Council elections open, and at stake are two seats on the city council at-large and a seat on both the second and fourth wards. Louis Adado, a 42-year-old incumbent, will be completing his first term on the council. He has lived in Lansing his entire life and is the son of a previous city council member. He is running along with incumbent Larry Meyer, Western Michigan University student Vince Villegas and chiropractor Jerry Heathcote for the two open seats on the Lansing City Council at-large. Adado said he will be examining ways to save money and wants to continue improvements to roads and the green areas of Lansing. “(We should) take a good hard look at our parks and (recreation) money and see if we are taking good care of our parks before we add new land,” he said. Adado also serves as the chief executive officer of the Michigan Licensed Beverage Association. He said the experience has prepared him for a new term. “There won’t be that learning curve there if Larry (Meyer) and I get re-elected,” Adado said.
