On today's episode we speak with Sherri Greenberg, a professor of practice and fellow of the Max Sherman Chair in State and Local Government at the LBJ School of Public Affairs. She and Bingham Group CEO A.J. discuss different local governance structures and their implications on civic engagement. BACKGROUND In July, Austinites for Progressive Reform launched with, among other initiatives, a call to adopt a mayor-council form of government, i.e. a strong mayor system. This would transfer the city manager's duties to the mayor. The city of Austin is currently run under a council-manager system, with power and authority to set policy resting with the city council. The council in turn hires a nonpartisan manager who runs the city (including hiring and firing personnell). The city of Houston is the only major Texas city with a strong mayor system. Austinites for Progressive Reform is currently gathering signatures for a city charter amendment (Austin's constitution) vote in May 2021. ABOUT GUEST: Sherri R.
