Sure, the Oakland County reps passed a non-binding symbolic resolution. Whatever. If everyone was really pissed, you'd see political arrows being shot at Snyder from every direction. So far, not so much.

This bridge will eventually happen.
Not if Maroun can tie it up in litigation for the next decade or two. Maroun is a billionare who not only holds grudges, but owns chunks of land necessary for the project. This is a looooooong way from being over. Maroun knows he isn't getting his own twin span so he's going to wait out the clock. At some point the Buffalo Bridge will happen.
