Small problem or big problem to get the power back on ?
 
Ford has taken all the power and is hoarding it in Dearborn.
 
Chevy has taken down the power in Detroit in order to add supercharged, dry sumped, sticky tired, carbon fibered upgrades.

Best to watch those pit stops closely. :biggrin
 
Bills were not paid?

Another new tax on the horizon.

Turns out Detroit has aging infrastructure that needs replacement. :bored

...name a large U.S. city that doesn't.
 
Evidently all is well now:

"The city announced at 5:15 p.m. Tuesday that all customers affected by the outage had their power back."

For the ones that actually pay for it, or for the ones that have their bills paid for by others?

The Detroit PLC is an outdated, inefficient operation that has been kept alive for years for political reasons. It is long past time for this operation to be turned over to Detroit Edison.

That's what is happening right now. In progress.
