THE CURRENT Tiger
Stadium proposal will allow
the Tigers to build a new
stadium financed by a luxury
tax. This luxury tax will
appl y to' every restaurant
from Fl ming Embers to
White Castle to Joe's Smokin
Bar-B-Que Ribs. We will be
t xed for the next twenty
years and till, we will con­
tinue to see police laid off in
our neighborhoods, poor gar­
bage pick up, chools that ur­
gently need financial support
and people who sleep In the
streets.
How dare our political
leaders come up with an idea
to help build a new stadium
while they sit silently watch­
ing the real problems our city
is facing?
And one last note, when
ever you hear the Tigers talk­
ing about leaving Detroit if
we don't build them a
'stadium, keep in mind that
they signed a 30 year lease.
The landlord, DETROIT,
should just renovate the
stadium to the tenants ap­
proval and enforce the lease.
This way we can put our
resources and energy toward
what Detroit really needs.

borhoods - the seventh edition of

book.
The Handbook, which is avail ..
ble free of charge, was developed
in 1979 by Manufacturers Bank as
a resource guide for community­
based organizations working to
revitalize the city of Detroit.
"We recognized that one of the
many hurdles facing communi ty
group was the lack of a referral
agency to contact for Information
when problems arose," said Brenda
L. Schneider, vice president of
community relatiOns for Manufac­
turers Bank and executive director
of the srndbook project.
THE 1991·92 HANDBOOK is
designed to provide the best pos­
sible access to contac who can
provide information, Istance and
advice on problems and issue
which impact communuity or­
ganizations. Highlights include:
- a look at Detroit' m t suc­
cessful community organizations

munity economic development is
and how it can change a community
- suggestions on how to make
a home warmer for leas money in­
cluding- sealing windows, walls, .
basements, attics and fireplaces; in­
sulation for basements, attics, wall
and windows; and heating systems
