Fix the Bleeping Roads!

Liz Vogel presented at the Michigan Municipal Conference last week in Charlevoix, Michigan.  She will give a truncated version of the presentation that was met with a lot of positive feedback from city and county administrators from around the state.  Liz will also share a rather depressing story about a trip to Lansing in April that inspired the creation of a coalition to fix the bleeping roads. 

From the program guide: Are you exhausted talking about Michigan's crappy roads? We are too. The task seems so daunting that nothing is being done to actively correct the problem We think that if the elected officials cannot do the job, public administrators need to frame the discussion, take the lead, and fix the bleeping roads. We must call attention to the unbalanced appropriation of funding raised from taxes and fees for roads, and the underfunding of roads throughout the State of Michigan.
