Thomas George is running for governor, right? It explains his recent and convenient fascination with Detroit. I have an idea, why don't we get the landbank going first and see how that works out? Did he run this by Ficano and Bing, first, to get ideas or feedback, or is he just grandstanding and meddling? He's more than welcome to implement and test a Kalamazoo/Kalamazoo County redevelopment authority, if he'd like.
