WHERE IN THE WORLD

Former state lawmaker, current regional transit rep and aspiring travel writer Chuck Moss has decided he “will not be a candidate against incumbent Shelley Goodman Taub for the County Commission in 2018” for the 12th District (Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, Bloomfield Township) seat. “I’m going to step back, let Shelley have her declared last term, and look at 2020,” he announced on Facebook. Moss didn’t return a call for comment on what led to his decision to wait until 2020, but word is county GOP leadership told him they wouldn’t support a run against Republican Shelley now, and he’d be considered a pariah later.
