    Wish I could make it, sounds interesting and promising. I also like the fact that Detroit is asking for cooperation from other Cities.

    From the linked page:

    Attendees can lookup fees and schedule consultation times with BSEED staff. Fines and late fees will be waived for full payments on past due accounts at the site on this day only.
    Interesting. I wonder how often BSEED offers a deal like that?

    This falls in line with the fact that the City recently launched Operation Compliance. The city is shutting down businesses that are operating in the underground industry [[tire shops, appliance shops, etc) without paying taxes, getting the proper permits.

    The city expects to close about 20 businesses per week.

    This give business owners an opportunity to straighten up or risk being shut down.

    Default Clarification

    Discounted settlement of BSEED penalty fees for accounts paid in full on-site. Credit cards and checks only.

    Interesting. I wonder how often BSEED offers a deal like that?
