Sometimes it’s just the nitty-gritty of improving permitting processes, building partnerships, attracting investment, or making sure residents get answers when they need them. Those things matter because they lay the foundation for a city that works for everyone. https://communityreporter.org/six-months-in-mayor-her-reflects-on-initial-crises-and-the-long-term-future/01 Jun 2026 19:46 +0000at://did:plc:46u2e3pkhdd7efrwqjflapm2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnatszds6c2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/mayorher.bsky.social/post/3mnaclhwcec2bPlease donate if you can!
