Send us Fan MailWeston Rolf, the mayor of Oak Grove, Minnesota, spoke with Liz Collin on her podcast about how the city recently won a "David versus Goliath" battle for election integrity to use paper voter rolls — instead of electronic ones — in the upcoming election in November."I'm not looking for convenience as mayor, I'm looking to build trust and integrity in our election process. And if that means we have to do more work in order to do that, I'm fine doing that,” Rolf said. Other cities and counties have reached out to Rolf about how they can also switch to paper voter rolls. Alpha News contacted the Secretary of State's Office and a representative stated that there is no "deadline for when a municipality may choose to switch from electronic rosters to paper rosters" but also "encouraged counties to connect with municipalities as soon as possible."Support the show

Episode 388: Why Half of Your Week Isn't in Your Job Description (Cyril Jefferson)Episode SummaryMost nonprofit leaders can feel that the week has gotten away from them, but very few can prove it, which makes the conversation with a board sound like complaining rather than evidence. Cyril Jefferson, Mayor of High Point, North Carolina, spent years on the other side of that problem as a consultant, and his fix is a four-week time audit: log every task in a spreadsheet as you do it, add a row each time something new appears, and at the end of 160 hours read what the sheet says. One leader discovered she was spending 40 percent of her time on her actual job description. He pairs it with an accountability chart that routinely shows a CEO carrying 70 functions while the program director carries 20. Jefferson also traces his own path from a Communities In Schools student to a site coordinator to City Hall, and makes the case for why the nonprofit sector sits where neither business nor government can operate. Listeners will walk away with a way to turn the feeling of overload into data somebody can act on.About CyrilCyril Jefferson is Mayor of High Point, North Carolina, elected in November 2023 and sworn in at 31, and he serves as Industry Practice Director at Stratagon, where he leads the agency's higher education practice. He came to that role when Stratagon acquired Change Often, the social innovation firm he founded to work on social and economic challenges. His path ran through Communities In Schools, first as a High Point student the local affiliate served and later as a site coordinator splitting his employment between the nonprofit and the school district, where a student who fell through the cracks became the reason he ran for office. He was elected to City Council in 2019, and he is currently the Democratic nominee for North Carolina's Sixth Congressional District. His wife is a nonprofit executive director, he is a self-described spreadsheet guy who loves a good SUMIF, and he once officiated the wedding of a former student.ResourcesThanks to our podcast partner, InperiumCyril's LinkedIn | City of High PointCommunities In Schools, the national dropout prevention network that served him as a studentStratagonBook recommendation: The Audacity of Hope by Barack ObamaConference for NC Nonprofits, October 20-21, 2026 in Concord.

The Moa Point saga is now wading into the courts. The Greater Wellington Regional Council has filed charges against water company Tiaki Wai and the City Council after a catastrophic failure in February saw more than 14 billion litres of untreated sewage pumped into the sea. The regional council says the prosecution follows detailed investigation of the events, the roles of involved parties, and the environmental consequences. Both organisations could face fines of up to $100 million each. Wellington Mayor Andrew Little told Mike Hosking it's highly unlikely there will be a fine at that level. He says there will be talks by lawyers on all sides, and if anything goes before a judge, there'll be a bit of teasing out about where responsibility actually lies, as that's still a bit of an open question.

Porirua's mayor says she's grumpy on behalf of ratepayers, over a lawsuit around the Moa Point plant failure. Greater Wellington Council has pressed charges against Tiaki Wai water company and the city council - alleging illegal wastewater discharges. Anita Baker says ratepayers will get hit twice for the cost of repairs and lawsuits. She says it didn't have to go down this way. "Why couldn't we just get in a room? Tiaki Wai could have said - yes, we're responsible. They could have hit us with a wet bus ticket and stopped treating the ratepayers like a bank."

Former Saint Paul City Council member Dave Thune pulls up a chair at the Crabby Coffee Shop to talk about what's happening at City Hall: Mayor Kaohly Her, Police Chief Axel Henry, the lawsuit, and what it takes to actually run a city. Thune spent two decades on the council representing Ward 2, downtown, West Seventh, the West Side. He knows how council, mayor, and police actually work when the cameras are off. Kenny and Jay get into the current fight: Henry's lawsuit alleging sexual harassment, unwanted contact, and retaliation; the city's investigation that found “offensive and inappropriate behavior” but did not substantiate harassment or retaliation; and the budget pressure on sergeants and commanders. They talk city council dynamics, how a mayor and police chief have to work together (or don't), public safety staffing, and the politics of a high-profile lawsuit that landed days after the city released a short summary of its report.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From the Hostage Nation paper: " The first and most fundamental duty of a civilised state is the safety of its people. Not just safety from overseas adversaries, or crime in the street. Economic security. A bill you can pay without going overdrawn. A house you can afford before your children have children of their own. A job that lasts long enough to plan around. Britain guarantees none of these. Not for want of money, or land, or people who know how to build. Our nation has all of that. For forty years we have outsourced that security to the global marketplace. We locked ourselves in a room and posted the key to a trading desk in New York. British government policy subservient to global winds.  They call it living within our means. We call it Hostage Nation."This is the second part of our conversation with Jamie Driscoll, former Mayor of Newcastle city region, founder of Majority and now Green Council for his old Monument ward. He's also one of the authors of the Hostage Nation paper quoted above that lays out how we can shift our current economy from one that's in hock to the Vigilante Bond Markets  to one that supports people and planet. Jamie's website Majority Hostage Nation—About Accidental Gods—We offer three strands all rooted in the same soil, drawing from the same river: Accidental Gods, Dreaming Awake and the Thrutopia Writing Masterclass Our next Open Gathering offered as part of our Accidental Gods Programme is 'DREAMING YOUR DEATH AWAKE' which will run on Sunday 1st November 2026 from 16:00 - 20:00 GMT (NOTE THE TIME! - We'll be out of summertime then)  - details are here.

Hugh Hallman, Attorney, Educator, and former Mayor of Tempe, joins Seth in studio for the full hour with his son Louis to explain the intricacies of inflation, government policies, and the impact on everyday people. The current economic problems we face today are being misattributed to the wrong presidential administration. The trio discuss that the massive increase in inflation during the Biden era was a direct result of the massive spending and money printing that occurred during that time. They also touch on the concept of "sticky" prices and how they're influenced by cumulative inflation. The conversation also explores the unintended consequences of government policies, such as the corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards, which have led to the homogenization of car designs and the rise of sport utility vehicles (SUV's). They also discuss the importance of understanding the difference between real and perceived inflation, and how people's memories and perceptions can be misled by short-term economic fluctuations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's episode of the Accountability Podcast is a must-listen for anyone following the Los Angeles mayoral election. The conversation is a no-holds-barred discussion about the two candidates vying for the top spot: Karen Bass and Nithya Raman. The speaker is joined by Daniel Guss, a man who knows the ins and outs of City Hall, and together they dive into the details of the election. The conversation covers the current state of the race, with Nithya Raman in the lead according to the polls. But what's behind the numbers? Is it just a popularity contest, or are there deeper issues at play? The speaker and Daniel Guss discuss the potential motivations behind Arnold Schwarzenegger's endorsement of Nithya Raman, and how it may be a turning point in the election. They also touch on the topic of accountability, or the lack thereof, in the current administration. One of the most striking aspects of this episode is the discussion around Nithya Raman's politics. Is she a true socialist, or just a politician playing the part? The speaker and Daniel Guss explore the differences between socialism and communism, and how they relate to the current state of the city. They also discuss the potential consequences of Nithya Raman's policies, including the possibility of more money being funneled into NGOs with little to no accountability. If you're interested in staying informed about the Los Angeles mayoral election, this episode is a must-listen. The speaker and Daniel Guss offer a unique perspective on the candidates and the issues at play. Tune in to hear their thoughts on the current state of the election and what it means for the future of Los Angeles.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With that growth has come a host of problems which are common to any rapidly developing region, including pollution and automobile congestion. Thankfully, the city is working on number of initiatives to help make life a little healthier and safer for the people who live there. One of those programs, named Harit Setu ("Green Bridge"), aims to deliver India's first 15-minute neighborhoods, with a complete network of bicycle lanes, continuous sidewalks, public seating, and—rather importantly in a part of the world feeling the effects of climate change quite acutely—green infrastructure and shade. Ashik's story offers lots of valuable lessons to all of us who do this work. Plus, as we discuss, bikelash may be the international language.
