Snyder: Detroit EM Must Consider Eveything -- Even DIA, Belle Isle -- To Fix City's Finances

Governor Snyder Has Some Pretty Shocking Advice For Detroit's EM

MACKINAC ISLAND — While the art pieces at the Detroit Institute of Arts and Belle Isle are essential elements of life in Detroit, Gov. Rick Snyder said Wednesday that emergency manager Kevyn Orr has to consider the value of all the city’s jewels when determining how to pull the city out of financial crisis.

Orr stirred outrage last week after the Free Press reported that Orr was evaluating the DIA’s art collection and preparing in case creditors seek repayment of the their debts through asset sales.
