Host: Anthony Minghine, Deputy Executive Director & COO, Michigan Municipal League
Guest: Monica Galloway, Councilmember, Flint
Tony talks with Flint Councilmember Monica Galloway about the impact that lost revenue sharing has had on her city's finances. As she became more aware of the seriousness and complexity of the municipal finance issue, she decided to join the first group of local government officials to become trained as SaveMiCity Ambassadors. The ambassador program provides local officials with the knowledge and presentation skills they need to educate lawmakers and the public on our state's broken municipal finance system.
