MCO Board Gets a Little Bigger

The MorningSide board recently welcomed back Adrian L. Green as its Treasurer.

Adrian is no stranger to civic engagement. He’s an officer of Greater Christ Baptist Church of Detroit, a past Grand Master of Michigan Prince Hall Masons, and belongs to Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the Michigan Democratic Party, and the Detroit NAACP.

After 25 years in the court system and working for the Michigan Department of Corrections in various positions in probation and parole, Adrian now serves as a Dean of School Climate and Culture for the Detroit Public Schools Community District. He and Veronica, his wife of 26 years, have lived in MorningSide for over ten years.

Adrian’s priorities for MorningSide include “vigorous enforcement of ordinances related to the cleanliness of our parks and commercial corridors. I’d like to see the business owners and gas station operators held accountable to keep their storefronts free of debris, oil, trash, overgrown grass, etc. I’d also like to see vacant and/or abandoned homes rehabilitated for needy families or torn down if they are deemed uninhabitable. Finally, I’d like to see more MorningSiders invest in solar energy to power their homes.”

Adrian doesn’t just preach about the importance of solar power. He’s an “early adopter,” and recently had solar panels installed on his own home on E. Outer Drive.
