"In partnership with Bloomberg Associates, the city now has many strategies and priorities over the next four years with the goal of helping Detroiters connect with what the city has to offer," according to Runyan.
The plan lays out five primary goals: economic opportunity, safety, vibrancy, community outreach, and city functionality. The article provides additional details about the year-one benchmarks with regard to buses, car sharing, bike sharing, parking, street beautification, and partnerships.
