"The proposed Criminal Justice Center is a very complex deal. We have worked very hard for a long time to get it right. Simply put, it is what Wayne County needs. The tentative agreement we have reached with Rock Ventures is a good deal for the citizens of Wayne County and it is the best deal we could have hoped for given the circumstances. In that spirit, I am pleased that the Wayne County Commission voted in favor of the land exchange between Wayne County and the City of Detroit which gets us a step closer to finalizing this project."
