I found this comment rather telling as per corruption within the ranks.
I live in Pontiac and a couple years ago, the city replaced the old water meters w/ “smart” meters that supposedly measure actual usage. The technician from the water department replaced the meter in the basement & as he was leaving, handed me a homemade business card & said “If the water ever gets shut off, just give me a call & I can hook it back up for you.”(no doubt for a fee). Now, I’d given him no indication that we couldn’t pay our water bill so this was obviously a side hustle that he’d developed on his own. Something tells me that some of the same nonsense goes on down in Detroit.
Detroit THE Destination City for the DREAMERS!!....that should solve everything......
Bill Schuette has charged a whole slew of city inspectors with fraud over the last few years. 7 Detroit electrical inspectors at one time last fall.
