Income tax vote goes forward

Washtenaw Circuit Judge Timothy P. Connors denied 'Stop City Income Tax Committee' an injuction to stop the city income tax vote from going forward on November 6. There IS a hearing just 4 days before the vote at which point the judge could stop the vote, let it go forward with changes or do nothing.

Great scoop; this is the first I've heard of it. Isn't it the same judge who will do the hearing? If so, that makes me a little downcast as to the likely result. ---ypsidixit

It's my understanding it is the same judge. I'd guess it would be since he seems to be the one considering this last motion/legal thingie/filing.

I still don't think this has any chance of passing after Lansing dipped into our pockets and people are feeling somewhat powerless from what I'm reading. I think they'll take it out on this proposal.
