What happens when a city's desire for modern connectivity clashes with concerns over its visual landscape? We tackle this pressing issue as we explore the drama surrounding AT&T's proposed 5G tower in Columbus. Despite meeting zoning requirements, the project faced significant pushback from the Planning Commission and City Council, culminating in Mayor Keith Gaskin's decisive vote against it. Listen as David and Zack unravel the political dynamics, the intricate decision-making process, and the broader implications for local governance and community development.
Meanwhile, Columbus' political scene is shaking up with the unexpected participation of independent candidates at a typically Democratic debate. Candidate Stephen Jones clashes with Democrat Chair Kabir Karriem over the logistics of the debate and says he can't attend.
From politics to performance, we shift gears to talk to Golden Triangle Theatre director Garrett Torbert about his group's upcoming plans, and we discuss the city's refusal to allow GTT to use the dormant Amphitheater. Join us as we advocate for its utilization, challenging city leaders by envisioning a more immediate vibrant future for the venue.
