Mayors Unpack the Baltimore Bridge Collapse

Mayors Unpack the Baltimore Bridge Collapse ¦ How to Really Run a City Podcast


On this episode of How to Really Run a City ... Fort Worth, Texas mayor Mattie Parker won her second term with a whopping 70 percent of the vote. On this episode, our hosts — former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, former Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter and The Citizen’s co-founder Larry Platt — talk with this superstar Republican mayor about managing a citywide boom while maintaining a small-town feel.
Mayor Parker believes that what sets her apart is not actually needing this gig, which frees her up to pass commonsense policies. “If it costs me my job, great. I just want to live in Fort Worth and raise my family,” she says. It’s an attitude and drive that has earned her overwhelming support from her city.
