Governor Snyder will make an announcement about the water situation in Flint Thursday. Flint’s advisory committee suggested the city stop using the Flint River as its water source due to high levels of lead.

Flint says it doesn’t have the money, and wants the state to pay for part of it. That means the general taxpayers would pay for a decision made by Flint to switch their source of water.
