LANSING, Mich. (WZZM) -- A Wyoming man who could not afford to pay for rent now has plans to buy a home -- after winning a $100,000 lottery prize.

Abel Aguado-Belmudez recently bought a $100,000 Cashword instant lottery ticket at the Baldwin Street Meijer store in Jenison.  He had to check the ticket very carefully before he allowed himself to believe he had won the top prize, according to a Michigan Lottery news release.

Aguado-Belmudez received his $100,000 prize in Lansing on Monday.

Aguado-Belmudez has been living with relatives because he could not afford rent and the child support payments he must make.  He now plans to buy a home.

The City of Wyoming is closing in on the final Council approval of our City Financial Plan (Budget) for 2012-13.  The budget document, as we call it, is probably the largest policy statement the City Council reviews and considers every year.  This document is the result of countless hours of staff time, and subsequent Council time in the preparation, presentation, and review of City financial resources and information.  The budget begins on July 1, 2012, is completed on June 30, 2013, and guides the financial actions of the City for this period. 

In this document, all of the funding is shown for services like police, fire, water, sewer, parks, recreation, building inspections, the City Manager and much, much more.  If the City does not fund an operation, department, or project, it does not get done.
