Madison’s Common Council is made up of twenty alders elected by members of their district. This coming election cycle, five alders have announced they are not seeking re-election.

For today’s show, Wednesday host Ali Muldrow talks with two of the outgoing alders, Max Prestigiacomo (district 8) and Michael Tierney (district 16), who reflect on their time serving on city council, achievements they’re most proud of, obstacles facing Madison leadership, and what’s next for local government.
