As part of City Council
President Charles Pugh’s commitment to bringing government directly to the
people of Detroit, he and the Street Team rode the DDOT bus Friday
afternoon.
Along the Gratiot bus route Pugh addressed
the concerns of residents.
“It’s important that our
residents know that we are all in this together.” said Pugh. “They should not
have to come to city hall to get their problems solved, we should go to them. Detroiters
will regularly see me and members of my staff in their neighborhoods working
with them to improve our city.”
Pugh’s bus ride is part of a larger effort to increase community
involvement and strengthen the partnership between city council and our
citizens.
