Last night, Detroit Mayor Dave Bing reaffirmed the city’s financial troubles, outlined some of the ways his administration has worked to cut costs and still maintain basic city services and introduced programs to demolish the Brewster projects and establish a Detroit Blight Authority.
The Mayor said the story of Detroit is not all doom and gloom and quote, "we can’t – we won’t give up on our city," he said.
Mayor Bing joined us today.
And we talked with Michigan Radio's Detroit reporter Sarah Cwiek about Bing and his speech.
Take a listen to our conversation with him above.
