Soon, this site will be the home of a new job center in District 7. I would like to thank Councilman Fred DurhaI, County Commissioner Alisha Bell and State Rep. Karen Whitsett for their support of this project and tireless advocacy for the residents of this neighborhood. — PolitiTweet.org

With City Council’s unanimous approval today, residents living near the abandoned former AMC headquarters no longer will have to live with an eyesore that has served only as an impediment to neighborhood quality of life for years. https://t.co/4DyDH0fWHv — PolitiTweet.org

This arrest was made possible thanks to the hard work of Interim Fire Commissioner Chuck Simms and Detroit Fire Department, the Detroit Police Department, and members of the Virginia Park community. Thanks to their efforts, the neighborhood is a safer place. — PolitiTweet.org

Over the past several years, arson fires in our city have become a much less frequent problem, thanks to our blight removal efforts and the great work of our DFD and DPD arson investigators to arrest more suspects. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the help of President Biden and the American Rescue Plan, the City’s Basement Backup Protection Program was designed to mitigate damage from future flooding events. I was glad to welcome EPA Administrator Michael Reagan to Detroit in support of this innovative program. https://t.co/qqLdOvPaia — PolitiTweet.org

While we can’t tear out the 3,000 miles worth of storm drains in the City, we can go directly into 11 neighborhoods most vulnerable to flooding and help those residents strengthen their basements to better protect them from excessive rainfall. https://t.co/gtnTPhCHDH — PolitiTweet.org

20 years ago, the EPA Administrator was concerned with finding solutions to combat human-made pollution - but today, climate change has become a much greater concern. This is something that Detroiters have felt the impact of first-hand, following the heavy rain last summer. https://t.co/cjCM3qOUoS — PolitiTweet.org

Stuart's legacy is in good hands. It is reassuring that long time Detroiter Chuck Nolen, owner of Cutter’s Bar and Grill, is taking over the business and will continue to serve the community with the same quality food and service, as well as Hygrade's trademark family atmosphere. — PolitiTweet.org

Stuart Litt’s legacy goes back to 1972, when he first took ownership of Hygrade Deli. After serving the Corktown area as a neighborhood staple for great food and service for 50 years – Stuart is ready to retire. https://t.co/9uAGdqQpJV — PolitiTweet.org

Just a few years ago, the Islandview area consisted of mostly vacant houses, vacant lots and boarded up storefronts. Through our Strategic Neighborhood Fund and community partnerships, we have been able to bring new life back to this neighborhood. https://t.co/sUCF7s49VE — PolitiTweet.org

This plan will impact 57 job classifications at the City, many of which include our General Services employees. These employees are valuable to both the City and our residents, and I’d like to thank them for sticking with us while we worked to get them a living wage they deserve. https://t.co/Ln5QDmPqRN — PolitiTweet.org

When Detroit first began its rise out of bankruptcy, there were over 1000 City employees making less than $15 an hour. While we have made progress each year to get more employees into a higher wage, at the start of this year, we still had 270 City employees making less than $15. https://t.co/UKU27WK69Y — PolitiTweet.org
