I guess that’s a step above wondering what “is”, is.

My interpretation: the ordinance is so vague as to unconstitutional, and the DDA is finished as an unelected taxing authority.

By the way Dave, if the DDA’s version of events prevails, you will have to re-write your article on The Varsity.

Jerry Lax is probably the most authoritative attorney in Ann Arbor regarding real estate and related areas. If I had a whole lot of money, I’d still think about going up against his opinion.
