That conference will be next week on the city's east side.

According to his campaign director, Duggan has conducted a thorough grassroots exploratory process since September which has included more than 70 intimate gatherings with Detroiters in their living rooms, churches, coffee shops and community centers.  

Tuesday's announcement comes as a direct result of the feedback he has gotten during these and many other meetings. He will be joined by about 500 supporters.
