Weekly Highlights

Lawrence Tech National Convention Celebration
Thursday, May 19, 2016 at 6:30PM

The Wizard of Boulder Park is premiering on Detroit Public TV 
tonight at 10:00pm.

The documentary focuses on the life and works of Earl Young, a self-taught builder who created thirty-one of the world's most unique homes and structures in Charlevoix using glacial boulders culled from the northern Michigan landscape.

Bureau of Professional Licensing had some administrative changes that occurred this week in LARA.  Our Director, Mike Zimmer, has taken a position as Governor Snyder's cabinet director effective Monday, April 18, 2016.  Chief Deputy Director Shelly Edgerton has been appointed by the Governor as the new Director of LARA.  Shelly has the same passion and commitment to protect the citizens of this state and provide excellent customer service as our former director.  This departmental change will not affect the operations of your board or BPL.
