In a system that wasn't broken, your property taxes should not be more than 700 bucks per year.
Detroit has serious issues with taxation, and if these properties are to survive, they need to all be evaluated from a new standard.
If they choose not to do this, then I would support neighborhoods such as EEV, Indian Village, Palmer Woods, University District, etc, splitting off and establishing their own cities.
There is no excuse for not doing something proactive in Detroit, it's years late in coming, and in order to preserve the built environment, new municipalities may need to be established.
