State of Jackson: Tyler Sinclair says spending more on staff is working

It’s not a cliff, says Jackson Town Manager Tyler Sinclair. But local government expenses are starting to outpace revenue, and that imbalance could deepen in the next few years. Sinclair breaks down why inflation, workforce retention, and pandemic-era spending patterns have pushed Jackson into a vulnerable financial moment. 

Co-host Pete Muldoon sits down with Jackson’s town manager to ask about the town’s plans to course-correct, including a philosophy to spend more on people and which parts of the town’s reserves are actually on the table for public input.
