(Detroit): Mayor Bing now has a plan to "TURN ON THE LIGHTS" in the City of Detroit. A City that has been dark for so many years; since State Rep Shanelle Jackson was a little girl. Now please don't get all excited now, because this has said to be a 3 year plan. Also, he will not "LIGHT UP ALL DETROIT" just the part that is located near schools (NOT THE CLOSED ONES) and "major throughfares" (a road from one place to another, esp a main road). Now it has been said that Mayor Bing wants "IMMEDIATE" repair of 3300 lights including the stretch on W Outer Drive near the Southfield Freeway and West McNichols; Lafayette between I-375 and St. Aubin, and Greenfield between Fenkell and Warren (High Voting Areas). Those outages are expected to be repaired by November(the Start of City Elections 2013) at a cost of $614,325 (From what BUDGET????) Now Don't forget about the "Lighting Authority" you know that group of people that is going to control the lighting department in Detroit starts up in November so how is our "brilliant" (and I use that term loosely) Mayor going to pull this decision making effort off without the consent of the authority? We shall find out in November, but until then :)
