FOIA Friday: City misses deadline for EV records

Why it matters: The city claims the infrastructure is crucial to its desired place as an automotive and mobility leader.

• More public chargers are needed if Detroit is to be at the revolution's forefront.

The latest: The city ignored a March 9 deadline to tell us whether our FOIA request would be granted or denied.

• The law department says it is reviewing documents related to the request.

Between the lines: We filed a similar public records request with the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.

• MEDC denied our request because it had no records about potential EV infrastructure locations in Detroit.
