Notes

From p. 1: This report was researched and written by Howard Husock, director, case studies in public policy, John F. Kennedy School of Goverement, Harvard University, and Wendell Cox, principal, Wendell Cox Consultancy, Belleville, Illinois. It is based on the cooperation and assistance of public officials from the cities of Portage and Kalamazoo, the townships of Kalamazoo, Schoolcraft, Pavilion, Texas and Oshtemo; members of the Kalamazoo County Board of Commissioners; as well as officials from Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo College, civic organizations, businesses and foundations.

From p. 2: The October 1998 publication of the proposed Kalamazoo County Compact suggested one approach to these issues...This paper, which can be viewed as another voice in the conversation...will offer a different analysis.
