“I do solemnly swear or affirm…” Flint Mayor Sheldon Neeley repeated as he took his oath of office on Monday, before an overflow crowd at Flint City Hall.

Neeley defeated incumbent Mayor Karen Weaver last week in a very close election.

In his address, Neeley repeatedly stressed the need for unity going forward.

Neeley also urged Flint residents to take a similar oath.

A federal lawsuit against two Detroit-area Kohl’s department stores can go forward. The stores in Novi and Northville are accused of violating the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Daimeon Mosley from Arizona says their bathrooms are not accessible.

A lower court said that Mosley did not have standing and his case could not go forward. The court said that’s because Mosley is not from Michigan and he had only been to the stores once.

Mosley argued that he does because he has family in Michigan and is likely to return to the Kohl’s department stores.

Twenty-one drinking water systems in Michigan this year have found lead amounts that exceed the federal action limit, according to state officials.
