I think it has a good shot at passing. Not predicting either way, but many good signs are out there. The single largest being the fact that city-suburb relations are far less hostile than in recent decades. Although not directly related to the issue, the sense that Detroit is now under competent, honest leadership makes it more palatable to suburbanites to join with city voters in creating a new transit network.

I agree with above posters about Grand River, with one caveat: a millage larger than the one being sought would frighten off taxpayers. Therefore, some projects we'd like [[BRT or something like it for Grand River) will have to wait. We need to build a nice, but basic, house. Later on, if we are liking the house and successfully making mortgage payments, we can put on additions.
