Gov.-elect Snyder and Detroit Public Schools Emergency Financial Manager Robert Bobb reached an agreement for Bobb to stay with the school system through the end of June.

In 2009, Gov. Granholm placed Bobb in control of the Detroit schools’ budget after the district’s deficit was projected to reach $400 million.

Bobb’s current contract is slated to expire on March 2, and he originally stated he would not remain in the position beyond that date. This new agreement will allow Bobb additional time to develop a comprehensive transition plan for the new emergency manager and/or superintendent.
