Taking a Pulse – The State of Regionalism
Conan Smith
Michigan MattersSlide4
BECOMING A REGION
Over the past 15 years, despite (and often because of ) economic strife, southeast Michigan’s counties have come together on major projects that declare metro Detroit as a very different – more collaborative – place in the 21
st
century.Slide5
BUILDING BLOCKS: THE ZOO
Detroit Zoological Society | Detroit City | Regional Funders
INABILITY TO PAY
As part of budget cuts in 2006, Detroit City Council voted to close down the Zoo having failed to negotiate a viable long-term management arrangement.
EVERYONE STEPS UP
Between 2006 and 2008, the City transferred operations to the Society, the Legislature provided $4M and the region voted in a tax to ensure ongoing support.Slide6
BUILDING BLOCKS: COBO HALL
Detroit Regional Convention Facility Authority
DECLINE OF AN ESSENTIAL ASSET
Detroit’s fiscal challenges managing
Cobo
lead to threats of the Auto Show leaving Detroit and of an alternative facility being developed in Oakland.
THE LEGISLATURE STEPS IN
In 2009 with the support of the political “Big 4” the Michigan Legislature creates a regional authority to govern and finance
Cobo
Hall.Slide7
BUILDING BLOCKS: ART
The Detroit Institute of Arts, Inc.
PUTTING A PRICE ON ART
At one point, 70% of the DIA’s funding came from the State, but the legislature failed to see the importance of this asset to Michigan’s culture and history.
PHILANTHROPY AND CITIZENSHIP
In 2012, voters in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb agreed to a 10-year tax to fund the museum, and in 2014 ownership was transferred to a nonprofit.Slide8
BUILDING BLOCKS: TRANSIT
The Regional Transit Authority of Southeast Michigan
BROKEN AT THE BORDERS
With 450,000 commuters crossing county borders daily, the region consistently faced calls for a better system.
SUCCESS IN GOVERNANCE. FUNDING . . .?
After 24 attempts and 40 years of trying, in 2012 the Legislature created a regional transit authority, but funding it is up to area voters in 2016.Slide9
“
Coming together is a beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success
.
”
- Henry FordSlide10
EQUITY IS THE REGION’S MAJOR CHALLENGE
Metro Detroit’s Drivers
THE WORLD IS URBANIZING
66% of the US population and 75% of our GDP come from the 100 largest metros.
BUT INEQUALITY IS GROWING
Ecorse residents pay 15% of their income to local government . . . in Royal Oak it’s just 5%
SO OUR SOLUTIONS MUST BE REGIONAL
Equity and prosperity derive from a combination of collaboration and friendly competition – a recognition of our shared destiny.Slide11
FINDING SPACE FOR FINANCE REFORMS
WHO HAS THE REGION’S
HIGHEST TAX RATE?
At 82 mills, River Rouge ranks highest, while tiny Lake Angelus is lowest at 32. Detroit charges 68 mills, 4
th
highest in the region. Slide12
FINDING SPACE FOR FINANCE REFORMS
WHO PAYS THE MOST TAXES
FOR CITY GOVERNMENT?
On average, Birmingham residents pay $16,643 yearly while Pontiac residents pay $1,250. Detroiters average $2,076.Slide13
FINDING SPACE FOR FINANCE REFORMS
IS DETROIT’S TAX
BURDEN TOO HIGH?
At 7.7% of median household income, Detroit’s tax burden is just above average for the region.Slide14
HOW WE GET THERE: METROPOLITANISM
In exploring new models for government engagement, we discover opportunities to improve our collective quality of life. Overcoming our current segregation takes a breed of leaders who can see beyond politics and borders. Slide15

Making the Case for Regional Transit
Michael Ford
Regional Transit Authority of Southeast MichiganSlide18
Regional Master Transit PlanSlide19
The purpose of the RTA is to plan for and coordinate public transportation in the four-county region of Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw and Macomb Counties including the City of Detroit
RTA’s mission is to manage and secure transportation resources that significantly enhance mobility options, to improve quality of life for the residents and to increase economic viability for the region.Slide20
RTA was created because transit in SE Michigan is disconnected, infrequent & leaves thousands of residents with no service
Metro Detroit is the nation’s most sprawled job market
92% of jobs are not accessible within 60 minutes on transit Slide21
The World Is Changing….
“Communities, regions, and states are in a global competition to attract & retain a talented & productive workforce. Increasingly these talented workers are choosing where they want to live first & then figuring out their work situation later.” CEOs for Cities Slide22
Businesses locate where Talent wants to live, and
These Talented Workers Want Transit……
“….
Millenials
…
more concerned
with the ease of their commute and
the proximity of public transit
than the quality of schools or public safety.
Nearly 80 percent said it was very important to be near public transit
while only 30 percent said it was very important to have free or discounted parking.”
Urban Land Institute Survey 2013Slide23
Shifting Attitudes: Driving less
Even in the Region that gave birth to the automobile
“
Young adults are ditching driver's licenses at a quickening pace.
Quite simply, cars are becoming less important or less accessible to
Millennials
.”
USA Today

Good Transit Spurs Investment
A catalyst for
economic development & growth
.
Home values performed 42 % better
if located near regional transit with high frequency service.

High quality transit spurs development because businesses and developers want to invest where people want to live and work.Slide25
Transit Connects People with Jobs, Employers with Employees
Regional transit helps workers get to jobs, and makes it easier for a business to recruit skilled employees
People can be less dependent on personal vehicles: thus reducing their financial burden
Reliable transit reduces employee turnover.
92% of Jobs
In SE Michigan in 2016
can not
be reached within
60 minutes
using transit

Why Was the RTA Created?
Getting People to Work
Makes our region workSlide27
Because Our Current Transit System Isn’t Working
Limited transit service coverage
Limited frequencies
Disconnected & uncoordinated
No premium transit services
SE MI is behind peer regions
27Slide28
Because we need more investment
Limited investment in transit has limited our ability to compete in a 21st-century economy

28

Source: National Transit DatabaseSlide29
Because there are gaps between where people live and work
The potential for SE MI cannot be realized unless it becomes a connected region
Job centers not served by transit
Low frequency of service
Needs extend beyond county borders

Because We Must Fix this Situation
Michigan continues to lose a particularly valuable human resource: young people with college degrees
Crain’s Detroit Business
Jan 2016
The ongoing loss of young professional talent is a “serious demographic crisis that threatens economic growth as our workforce ages and population growth is stagnant”
