Wedge LIVE!

Lisa Bender, Minneapolis City Council President


Listen Later

John is joined by Lisa Bender, President of the Minneapolis City Council, as she enters the twilight of her Council career. We talk about how she feels going into the final week of the city election, public safety, the strong mayor charter amendment, what's next for housing and transportation policy, what it's been like to push department staff to develop a new policy, her hopes and fears for the next council term, her approach to dealing with Mayor Frey, those weird Duluth rumors, and more.
