Tyler Rossmaessler, from the Flint Genesee Economic Alliance (FGEA) asked if he could meet with our NOMEGASITE group. He was asking for input about community outreach regarding the proposed Advanced Manufacturing Development/District (AMD).

These are the meeting highlights:

Group members met with Tyler and several FGEA staff Friday 9-18-26. They are going to do a community outreach. Topics for this community outreach will be:

▪︎current & future strengths of our community
▪︎what is most valuable
▪︎factors that bond us together.

They also asked the community to consider:

▪︎Looking at outside communities, what makes them better?
▪︎Where did you get info about the AMD? suggestions for improving communication?
▪︎What do you see as the impact of the AMD?
▪︎What would you like to see in conjunction at the site to soften the industrial presence?

It was a good discussion, we did state that this meeting and FGEA's concern should have been addressed 3 years ago, however, better late than never. Suggestions were made to specifically reach out to those people who live across the street from the AMD as they have been exposed to a huge disruption yet they have received little empathy. The FGEA did note that they will be planting trees on the perimeter to offset wind, snow, and debris blowing across the roads.

No, THERE IS NO BUYER AS OF YET AND NO Letter of Intent (LOI) or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Four Data Centers have approached them, and FGEA has declined all of them. The Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) Strategic Site Readiness Program (SSRP) grant terms requires the development to be for Manufacturing, must have an investment of $2Billion and must provide 2,000 permanent jobs. Data Centers do not meet this criteria.

Tyler wants more community meetings like we had and is asking our help on how to accomplish this. We did ask that potential buyers need to keep the Agricultural feel and they must agree to our Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) that we have been working on. We went over our CBA requests/demands and Tyler's group didn't seem to have a problem with them.

Any future discussions between the FGEA and our group will be posted through this FB page. Any negative remarks or comments will NOT be passed onto to FGEA on your behalf.

🌟Hey Neighbors! The Economic Development Responsibility Alliance (EDRA) has sent a demand letter to the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) "calling for the state agency to immediately suspend and re-evaluate the $259M SSRP contracts which were awarded to Flint & Genesee Economic Alliance (FGEA) in spring of 2024 for the Advanced Manufacturing District (AMD), aka the Mundy Megasite."

https://edraofmi.org/blog/f/mundy-resident-to-medc-suspend-and-re-evaluate-259m-ssrp-grant?fbclid=IwdGRjcAR79-1jbGNrBHv352V4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkDDM1MDY4NTUzMTcyOAABHs6kEerm9_YuyJBz6yb4jRoZor9Fda33Qre_12PoW-0Rx_KGE0-fRNkGpfHw_aem_lQ5RKC69ZaUpFa-lh-70MQ

The demand letter can be read in full at this link:

Local resident JoAn Mende states that “FGEA is not an entity worth investing in, due to their lack of respect for the township and its residents.” Mende is an engineer with over 40 years experience, including 25 years spent in private practice. “There is no semblance of accountability to the community in this development. FGEA is a public-private developer using state taxpayer funds to develop this project, and at every step of the way, they’ve conducted this project as if the rules don’t apply to them. If I conducted my business this way with my clients, I wouldn’t be in business.”

Thank you to the many local residents who poured so much time and thought into gathering information for this demand letter to happen. To the ladies at Economic Development Responsibility Alliance of Michigan , the entire state of michigan will never be able to repay you for all of the work you have done and continue to do to help preserve the beauty of our state for the next generation!

🌟Hey Neighbors! Bridge Michigan wrote a few articles about us. This is a great read about how the megasite process began and how we got where we are.**

"Michigan offered Western Digital an $18.5 billion package, documents show. By the end of May, the company had asked for more and the state upped its offer to $24 billion. The “give” was filled with record-setting tax breaks and cash that lawmakers had yet to even approve. The biggest portion was a 50-year tax-free zone worth at least $18 billion."

“Keep playing our game,” the MEDC’s Josh Hundt wrote in a text in spring 2024, “and it’s ours to win!”

🌟Hey neighbors! We traveled to Marshall, MI to see the Blue Oval Battery Park being built there. The photos below are from the street/road view surrounding the campus.

The "hills" you see surrounding the perimeter are called berms. It's actually very difficult to capture the scale of the building in a single photo, but you can see parts of that as well in the images.

We are unaware at this time if they had an advanced manufacturing overlay prior to construction, but you can view ours on page no. 153-154 of the Mundy Township Zoning Ordinance at:

https://cms4files1.revize.com/mundytownshipmi/Official%2010-17-2024%20Mundy%20Zoning%20Ordinance%2023-123-Z.pdf?fbclid=IwY2xjawQRpeFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAwzNTA2ODU1MzE3MjgAAR75d8g-9Rwpl2Xbvqm3ouZ5S9OPbKoD4bf--ddhDGPEtJILu-LwjgQO4i7amQ_aem_zrK1qsEXdwyCJLN_NTpX4Q

These photos are a visual example of the type of berms we may see at our site, the zoning ordinance describes the specifications for our site. This MLive article shares the latest update on the Marshall site:

Hey neighbors! If you are wondering where to find more information on the Advanced Manufacturing District (aka the Megasite), the link below is the full overlay/zoning ordinance for Mundy Township. If you have trouble reading some of the legal jargon you can call Mundy Township Hall to ask them for clarification.

This document provides the foundation for the "protections" for the remaining community. **THIS DOCUMENT DOES NOT DEFINE OR NAME A FUTURE COMPANY THAT WILL RESIDE HERE**

If you'd like to do a deep dive into how/why the ordinance was formed and how "the Megasite" came to be, check out the Township's website and read the meeting minutes. The first mention of the overlay was in September 2022.

This post is going to be a running list of all of the companies that are actively on-site, destroying our neighborhood. One thing to notice while looking online at these companies, is that some of them are NOT located inside GENESEE COUNTY. Wasn't the entire premise of this project to bring jobs to genesee county residents?

This post will be updated as workers appear on site.
