Mitchell said their research shows the city did not pay for any of those buildings.

"That is not what's been done in this county for 45 years," Mitchell told a crowd of about 350 people at a Bartlett town hall forum on the feasibility study."

I am glad he answered, because I had the same information, however, it would have been suspect coming from me.

Without Memphis, the suburban cities would wither on the vines.

The city of Memphis takes care of the streets in the boundaries of Memphis, not the county.
