How come the Royal Oak mayor doesn't give a State of the City address like the school district, or surrounding cities?
In checking the city website, looks like he's given ONE annual city update in the last three years!! Can you guys check when this year's State of the City is scheduled?

Patty, the City website must must not have all the State of the City addresses listed. The Mayor has given seven State of the City addresses. (He missed 2010.) He is planning to do another in July after the budget is complete. That way, he says, he can give a more accurate reflection the city's state. Stay tuned...a date is coming.
