Sizzle but no Steak!

Unfortunately this is more sizzle than steak. Some of the changes can be done by following best practices right now.

Decreasing the Council staff budget/and concomitantly its overall budget from 16M to 6M. Decreasing the Executive Budget from 12M to 6M. This can happen by eliminating Departments like the Senior Departm...ent and the Youth Department and allowing a liaison, the former director, to work as a specialist within the Human Services Department.

In addition, the city of Detroit could eliminate the Airport and use that land for development or major retial as well as oppose giving the State Fair Grounds to Metro Parks and using it as a Major Retail development-both sites could create over 1,000 jobs each at minimum! I have mentioned the ideas already!
