]]> Comment on Blight Threatens the Safety of School Children by Jerome Lewis http://detroit2020.com/2012/05/15/blight-threatens-the-safety-of-school-children/#comment-2128 Jerome Lewis Wed, 16 May 2012 19:29:43 +0000 http://detroit2020.com/?p=4649#comment-2128 We need to do more than we're doing now. There are so many vacant homes/houses and building.that can be turn donw with the local companies here. It would give some jobs here, some of the buildings belong to the city (old police stations,schools, and churches. Some can be remolded,land cleared(by locals) and the city can look up those who own the land(cutting thu the chase)pay them a flat price for the land not the house or business) and then sale it to someone (if the home is not in bad shape) then turn around and get the taxes form that new land owner. The city can use the money, the neighborhoods would be so bad and the city would get pride in itself again. This is a new day, we cannot operate under "old agendas" "DO THE SAME THING,GET THE SAME RESULTS" Do something different ,get different results....may or may not acheive but you would have something to work toward. What's needed is for them to come from behind those desk and tables,,,and be apart of the city. We need to do more than we’re doing now.

I would like to have the Detroit Crimes Commission contact Wayne County about a corner house on Elmer and Wagner, between Wagner and McGraw. Last monh, while I was talking on the phone from my bedroom, I saw an adult male strip a white house on the corner of Elmer & Wagner literally strip gutters and other metals. I have sent a second notice to Wayne County officials about this dangerous work; hopefully, they will send an investigator to see this house before someone starts a fire. This is house is in very close proxmity of other houses and garages. Good Morning, Sir or Madam:
