FLINT, MI -- A nonprofit organization that features "positive stories around Michigan" has focused a recent video report on Chevy Commons in Flint.

Produced by Community Economic Development Association of Michigan, the video was posted this month on YouTube and features Flint Mayor Dayne Walling, former UAW activist Billy W. Bradshaw, an environmental consultant for the city, and others speaking about the effort to remake what was once a massive General Motors manufacturing complex known as Chevy in the Hole.

The city has received grants of nearly $4 million so far to start the process of redeveloping the contaminated, 60-acre site with the goal of creating rugged park land and green space, wetlands and walking trails from what was a contaminated manufacturing site.

Walling says the plan for Chevy Commons is "what residents and neighbors and local businesses wanted to see in that area."
