During a recent government meeting, discussions centered on community engagement and gun violence prevention initiatives in Lansing. The meeting highlighted the upcoming Lansing 360 meeting scheduled for Wednesday from 12 to 1 PM via Zoom, where community members are encouraged to participate in conversations aimed at finding solutions to gun violence.

Key figures in the community, including council members and Chief Backus from the police department, have been actively involved in these discussions, emphasizing a shift from merely discussing problems to focusing on actionable solutions. The Lansing Empowerment Network is facilitating this dialogue, with information available on their website and social media platforms.

Additionally, the meeting included a reminder for public comment on legislative matters, with specific items on the agenda open for discussion. The mayor did not provide comments during this session, and attendees were given a brief opportunity to register for public input before the legislative discussions commenced.

This meeting underscores the city's commitment to addressing pressing issues through community collaboration and legislative engagement.
