In this episode, we sit down with Harland Russell—lifelong Lansing resident, former City Council member, and seasoned development professional—to talk about the past, present, and future of Lansing. Harland shares insights from his time in office, reflects on lessons learned during critical infrastructure decisions, and explores how cities like Lansing can be better prepared for the next wave of growth.


4 Key Takeaways from this Episode

1. Public Service Leaves a Lasting Legacy

Harland’s time on the City Council included foundational projects like the wastewater treatment plant expansion and the development of Kenneth W. Bernard Park. These long-term investments continue to serve Lansing today and exemplify how infrastructure planning shapes community resilience.

2. Development Requires More Than Land—It Requires Readiness

From utility access to site grading, Harland emphasizes the importance of “pad-ready” sites in attracting investment. Projects can take years to secure, and proactive site preparation is often the key to winning them.

3. Balancing Growth with Community Character is a Challenge Worth Embracing

As both a public servant and private developer, Harland advocates for a thoughtful approach to growth—one that welcomes new residents and investment without losing the identity of the city. “If we don’t grow, we die,” he says—but growth should serve the whole community.

4. Lansing’s Competitive Edge Lies in Collaboration

Whether preparing land for industrial use, rethinking incentives, or promoting incremental infill housing, success comes when cities, developers, and residents work together. Lansing’s central location, military-connected workforce, and evolving development philosophy position it well—if it continues to be bold and intentional.

They focus on the concept of “value per acre” as a tool for comparing property tax revenues across residential, commercial and industrial sites, and explain how this approach helps guide decision‐making about new projects.


They discuss how the City’s recent investment in infrastructure—particularly a major sewer line expansion—has positioned Lansing to attract new developments more effectively. Ken and Joshua also unpack the term “shovel‐ready,” emphasizing the importance of having roads, utilities, and correct zoning in place so that future projects can move quickly from idea to construction.


Beyond economic strategy, the co‐hosts explore what “vibrancy” means for a growing community—highlighting the need for varied housing types, a robust entrepreneurial ecosystem, and local amenities that draw people into the heart of Lansing. They also share examples of how residents and local businesses can strengthen the city from within.


Here's what you can expect to learn in this episode:

  • The role of “value per acre” in planning fiscally strong development
  • How sewer and other infrastructure investments reduce risk for developers
  • “Shovel‐ready” land: what it entails and why it attracts faster growth
  • Balancing residential, commercial, and industrial zoning for a vibrant city
  • Community‐driven growth and supporting local entrepreneurs
