Pay no mind to Jordan’s dodgy numbering - We take almost a whole hour to welcome Paul Lambert to the Hilliard Beacon podcast family. Paul’s perspective and experience through his years in local government are shared across a wide range of topics.
* How government works for and through local people
* The call to engage local democracy and obstacles
* How different levels of government overlap and influence each other locally
* Jordan and Paul discuss Tax Increment Financing and its use here in Hilliard
* Improved inter-governmental participation
* The “Push / Pull” of developers
* Paul’s central Ohio development timeline and various development mechanisms through the eras
* The future (and past) of Public Education and Paul’s love of classic series “Connections” (see clip below)
* The usual scatter gun finish you’ve come to know and love
* Part 2 to come - 90’s to now!
