City Expansion
Business Leader
Addresses Lions

"A future as the most substan-
tial residential sector OF Ma
comb County was predicted to-
day for Mount Clemens in an
address by Ralph w. Clark. loc-
al manager of the Consumers
Power and President of the
Board of Commerce, at the
weekly luncheon meeting OF the
Lions Club.
Pointing out that at present
the South portion of the County
was experiencing an industrial
growth which he termed as
founding" Clark declared that
Mount Clemens was ideally loo
ated to establish itself as the
foremost "city Of homes" in the
County.
He stated that residential
building during the past year
in Mount Clemens had totalled
s428, 835 for $50 residential per-
mits to establish a standard OF
finer homes. He added that
Mount Clemens might be faced
with a housing shortage but
that the present rate Of build
ing increase indicated 1t would
be of short duration.
Three separate housing pro-
jects now underway will relieve
the situation before 1t reaches
an acute stage, Clark said. The
government project on Joy
Boulevard, the Huron project
and Salem Village project were
mentioned.
Government Census figures
were quoted to show . popu-
lation increase Of more than 40
per cent for the County ~ .
whole in the past ten years.
The majority Of this increase
Is centered in the area South
of the Twelve Mile road, Clark
said. The slower rate Of growth
experienced by Mount Clemens,
however, tends to establish q
more solid community, he de-
clared.
