Gee, nover. An EFM is an Emergency Financial Manager.
1) Only applies during emergency
2) Only addresses finances -- see the DPS fights about power of an EFM [[yes, I know that's not quite the same).
When Schimmel left Hamtramck, he said he had eliminated the financial emergency, but he warned that he felt that the city leaders who fought him tooth and nail on every reform were likely to return to their old ways.
Conclusion: The EFM process is not intended to permanently solve problems. That's left to the democratically elected officials. EFM is only to sold the emergency financial situation.
