Detroit council, mayor approve deal to restore their powers

DETROIT, Sept 25 Thu Sep 25, 2014 6:19pm EDT

DETROIT, Sept 25 (Reuters) - The Detroit City Council on Thursday unanimously approved a resolution that will keep a state-appointed emergency manager in control of the city's bankruptcy case, while returning his power over the city government to elected officials.

The resolution was also approved by Mayor Mike Duggan shortly after the vote.

Kevyn Orr, whose 18-month appointment as emergency manager ends this week, will maintain responsibility for the city's historic bankruptcy "to successfully achieve confirmation and implementation" of Detroit's plan to adjust $18 billion of debt and obligations. That plan is the subject of an ongoing trial in U.S. Bankruptcy Court to determine if it is fair and feasible.
