More than a year after taking office, Mayor Mike Duggan gets high marks, Crain's Detroit Business reports in a very positive piece about the mayor.
Amy Haimerl of Crain's Detroit Business writes:
Mike Duggan has juice.
In his first year as Detroit mayor, he has shown that he's got the power to move the intractable, to make the impossible possible. He's got a way to make people believe, to step in line.
When he stood up at his invocation last January and told the gathered crowd "we are not going to tolerate this kind of service in the city of Detroit," it stood in ovation, agreeing and believing. One week in, the mayor had already impressed by getting trash picked up and roads plowed during a polar vortex.
Haimerl writes that the challenges in his second year will be more complex.
