I guess this is becoming so commonplace that it is drawing yawns, but a $3 million deficit seem like an awfully small amount, even for Hamtramck, to surrender their governance.
I am curious why the Mayor and council can't figure that out via cuts and increased revenues - instead of leaving it to the vagaries of an EM's actions -- who will do just that and who knows what else.
