By the late 1820s Midland was a fur-trading post of the American Fur Company, overseen from its post at Saginaw, where agents bought furs from Ojibwe trappers, and the Campau family of Detroit ran an independent post there at the same time.
The Dow Chemical Company was founded in Midland in 1897, and its world headquarters are still there. Dow Corning was also based in the city, and a Dow plant in Handa, Aichi, Japan, led Midland and Handa to become sister cities. In 1969 the city declared a Midland Urban Growth Area, a two-mile band around its limits, to control sprawl. As the county's only capable supplier of drinking water, Midland would serve communities beyond the band, such as the village of Sanford, but would not supply water inside it unless the land was annexed, which let the city direct most of the county's growth. Since 1991 agreements with surrounding townships have let Midland sell them water without annexation. On May 19, 2020, the Edenville and Sanford dams both failed, and about 10,000 Midland residents were evacuated. Governor Gretchen Whitmer declared a state of emergency and warned that parts of Midland and Sanford could be under nine feet of water within 12 to 15 hours. Sources Wikipedia: Midland, Michigan
