Stand With the Gratiot-McDougall Families in Court!Twelve Detroit families face a bogus motion to evict them so the developer can sell their homes to a Singapore Company. Come stand with them in their battle to save their homes from gentrification and unjust eviction.Which "Future City" do we want? A gentrified core catering to global investors who evict Detroit families? Or a city that defends its homeowners and residents from breach of contract and summary eviction?Twelve Detroit families are fighting to save their homes in the Gratiot McDougall development located near Eastern Market. The developer, Peter Barclae of West Bloomfield, pledged to sell them the homes when they moved in, but now refuses to honor that obligation after pocketing federal subsidies and tens of thousands of dollars from each family-- totaling well more than the houses are currently worth. Instead, he seeks to evict them as “tenants,” rejecting their offers to buy the homes they have been living in— and repairing— for the last five years. He wants to sell the homes to Midas Development Corporation, a Singapore company which has tried to market the houses to Asian and American investors as rental properties— to be managed by Midas.The families are fighting in court to stop Barclae’s arrogant breach of contract. He now has filed a motion saying they have not paid the monies into escrow required by the court-- but admits in his motion he has no real evidence for this latest attempt at harassment. All of the families are paying the escrow and will have the receipts to prove it. The court should order Barclae to make these families whole and deed them the homes they contracted to buy-- and have more than paid for already.We will stand in court to support these families when the case is called!
