Autonomous vehicles and buzzy transportation tech might be exciting, but a well-managed city - a truly smart city - knows what matters to its constituents.In this episode Mayor Jake Spano of St. Louis Park, Minnesota joins BB&K Greg and Eno Greg for a lively discussion about livability, regional collaboration, and the real-world, day-to-day challenges that cities address every day.Mayor Spano says that citizens understand the true impacts of their local government's decisions and how money is spent. Residents notice when the trash isn't taken out, the snow isn't plowed, or when a pothole isn't fixed - which is why he focuses on the important daily operations of the city while also planning wisely for the future.**A special thanks to Brittney Kohler and the National League of Cities for inviting us to speak and the opportunity to record these episodes with innovative city leaders.**Keep up with us on LinkedIn:
