Detroit's City Council Districts Decided

[mam2009]

Agreed, Corktownyuppie. :0) I do hope that people don't get sooo wrapped up in specific neighborhoods being within the same district that these districts end up breeding ”turf wars”. We need to remember that many of or neighborhoods are already split up by congressional lines, state House lines, state Senate lines, Wayne County Commission lines, Board of Education lines, etc. I haven't heard anyone ever complain about that. Why? Because citizens, regardless of their lines can STILL WORK TOGETHER ON ISSUES REGARDLESS OF WHAT DISTRICT THEY ARE IN. We need to be careful to work more for a better Detroit, rather than create a neighborhood versus neighborhood mentality. These districts, again, are just about deciding the geographic area from which your elected official will come from. That's it.
