Good Morning Linda,
Thank you for contacting the U of M Extension Service.
Please click on the following link from the U of M Extension Yard and Garden website:
If you scroll down to bacterial blight, it discusses lilacs.
This also refers to the "managing leaf spot diseases" above. With the cool and wet weather we've had this spring, many lilacs are experiencing blight.
Good Luck!
