You cannot have any more money.
Do you realize what great lengths I have arduously harrowed just to find out what you did with the Hardest Hit Funds, Neighborhood Stabilization Funds 1 & 2, property taxes and all the other taxpayer funded Public Private Partnerships that allowed the fraud schemes to go on in the exfiltartion and selling off the land patents of the City of Detroit, replete with those fake ass quiet title, mortgage, quit claim, reverse mortgage, blah, blah, blah, and those foreign tiny humans trust funds?

NO!What did you do with the last $250,000,000?

Fund your campaign?
Fund your buddies' campaigns?
Perhaps, we should ask Alexis Wiley what happened to all that money.

| I know where lots of these properties you just gave away are. |
What are you going to do with the properties you save?
Give them to the Detroit Land Bank Authority to run them through the property tax, mortgage fraud, money hustle system, again?
I have a better question.
What are you going to do with the land?
More land patents?
More gerrymandering?
Forced migration?
I have a better idea.
How about going after all the fraudfeasors who were just a-stealin' the children, land & vote?
Last time I checked you were still an officer of the court.
I bet Dan Gilbert could help you recover all that $250,000,000 so you do not have to burden the residents of the City of Detroit, again.
Dan Gilbert has friends.
Correct me if I err in my assumption, but, do you not still have an active SIGTARP investigation going on for stealin' that money that was supposed to go to saving houses and removing blight?
I had better stop before Mikey forecloses on my property, again.
I hate when that happens because no one in City and County governments, or the "Elected Ones" want to provide me any assistance.
Must be those federal indictments.
Plan N bond proposal would save some Detroit homes, demolish others
Detroit — A neighborhood improvement plan that would hinge on a $250 million bond proposal on the November ballot was introduced Tuesday by Mayor Mike Duggan and other city officials.The plan — called Proposal N, as in neighborhoods — would stabilize 8,000 vacant but structurally sound houses and demolish 8,000 structures that can't be saved. The city would commit to a goal of awarding more than 50% of all contracts to Detroit companies.
"This will transform the quality of life in the neighborhoods in this city if we secure 8,000 houses and move families in and get rid of the 8,000 burned-out houses that can't be saved," Duggan said during a press conference. "We believe all of this is possible and we're going to put people to work."
Detroit City Council is expected to consider in the next two weeks whether to put the bond proposal on the Nov. 3 ballot. If voters approve the proposal, bonds would go to market in December, officials said.
According to the city, the bond can be sold without raising property taxes by phasing in new debt payments as other debt drops off.
The latest proposal follows the City Council's rejection last fall of Duggan's previous $250 million plan aimed at erasing blight. At the time, some city council members cited unresolved questions and concerns including a long-running federal criminal investigation into the city’s demolition program. Others called for more inclusion in the hiring of Detroit workers.
Earlier this year, the city hired a leader for its new demolition department and the demolition program shifted July 1 from the control of the Detroit Land Bank and Detroit Building Authority to the city government for the first time in six years.
The new proposal puts higher priority on saving structurally sound houses, officials said. The previous plan was more aggressive on demolitions and called for 19,000 demolitions by mid-2025.
According to the city, there are 14,000 houses that require demolition. Under the latest proposal, 8,000 would be demolished during the next three years. The city plans to seek other funding to complete the rest of the demolitions in 2023 and 2024.
The city has depleted the $263 million it received through the federally funded Hardest Hit program. It was used to fund 15,000 demolitions.
Contractors will be required to either comply with the city's executive order requiring that 51% of all hours on the job be worked by Detroit residents — or pay into the city's job training funds. Another option is to interview Detroiters first from a list of applicants provided by the city's Detroit at Work program.
"We're going to be able to knock down homes in our most challenged neighborhoods, in our most low-income neighborhoods — the areas that didn't see these types of resources in the past," Councilman Scott Benson said.
"We're going to be able to hire our residents who are going to be looking for jobs," he said.
After the $600 a week in extra federal unemployment benefits runs out July 25, Benson said, "You're going to see a great change in people's economic standing within the city of Detroit. It's important that we give people a chance to invest and rebuild their own communities."
City Councilman Andre Spivey said Tuesday that after the council rejected the mayor’s previous proposal, he asked for a more robust plan that would include renovation and provide more opportunities for local demolition contractors.
“I support this plan,” he said. “I’m ready to vote on it when the time does come. I still receive phone calls from residents who live near a vacant house, and it is leaning close to their home. I still have residents who cannot get homeowners insurance on their property because they live in an area where they have too many vacant homes."
Securing the 8,000 houses that would be saved would involve clearing out the structures, installing secure exterior coverings over doors and windows, and fixing holes in roofs.
“It adds value to anybody that wants to buy it," Duggan said. "We’ll probably put $10,000 or so into securing the outside, fixing the roof. That means for anybody who to buy that house, we’ve added $10,000 of value right off the bat. It makes it far more attractive to the community groups. And if you’re a buyer, you can put in plumbing and furnace and not have to be nearly as worried that somebody is going to come in and steal them because we have a secure exterior system in place.”
The plan would putt $90 million toward stabilizing homes and $160 million for demolition.
George Preston, president of the Mohican Regent Resident Association, said Tuesday he’s pleased to hear of the plans. Preston has lived in his eastside neighborhood for almost 40 years. One concern among neighbors is blighted vacant properties, he said.
“We try to do our part in terms of trying to keep it as clean as we possibly can, but we want people in these properties,” he said. “I’m excited when I hear that hopefully this is something that going is coming. We’re going to get people hopefully in these properties, we’re going to get these properties cleaned up and bringing about a vibrant neighborhood.”
Preston said he hopes an increase in residents in the neighborhood would attract more businesses to the area.
