As Mayor of Detroit, I want you to know that City government’s most important role is to serve your family and community. Whether it’s making your streets safer or improving your local park, your quality
of life must be the focus of our efforts.
I encourage you to participate in making Detroit better and stronger by attending a local police district meeting or one of my regular town hall meetings in your community, or by calling City Hall or one of your City Council members with your ideas or concerns. If you run a business — or want to start one — I hope you’ll take advantage of the assistance we can offer. If you are interested in volunteering to help our city, we’d be happy to offer ideas — or to hear yours.
Remember, this is your city and we are here to work for you. I hope you will take advantage of all that the City of Detroit has to offer. And I hope you will join us in working to make Detroit the best that it can be.
Yours truly,
Kenneth V. Cockrel Jr.
