Grand Rapids Democrat David LaGrand on Wednesday announced plans to run for the City Commission's soon-to-be vacant 2nd Ward seat. LaGrand, an attorney and businessman who lives in Heritage Hill, is a former assistant Kent County prosecutor and has been involved with revitalizing downtown and the Wealthy Street business district. His announcement came on the heels of 2nd Ward City Commissioner Rick Tormala's decision not to seek re-election. Tormala has said he's considering a run for mayor or a state House seat. The two men worked together in 2006, on LaGrand's unsuccessful campaign for a state Senate seat.
