During public comment on Dec. 15, a resident identified as Fabrice praised SEMCOG’s support of Troy and urged greater regional engagement, then raised concerns about immigration enforcement activity in the city.

Fabrice said immigrant residents have reason to be "vigilant" and said he had reported that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had been active in Troy in recent months. He asserted that "most recently on Friday at 11AM in the parking lot of the Troy Walmart" an enforcement action occurred and that this raised concerns about where residents shop during the holidays.

Council did not take formal action or make a formal motion in response during the meeting. The mayor thanked the speaker and the meeting proceeded. The council did not record a staff report or direction in the Dec. 15 minutes tied to the comment; any follow-up or verification of the claim would require inquiry of police, county or federal sources.
