Larry Nielsen, Chad Livengood, Samantha Harkins, Steve Baker and Dan Gilmartin talk about the Partnership for Place on News\/Talk 760 WJR.<\/p><\/div>The Michigan Municipal League<\/a> has been saying for quite some time now that the state\u2019s system for funding municipalities is a broken system.<\/p>\n

Lawmakers and others have asked for our proposed solutions and we\u2019ve recently answered those requests with the release of our Partnership for Place Agenda<\/a>. This policy agenda proposes a commitment of action in partnership between the State and its municipalities that will facilitate Michigan\u2019s economic growth and allow for the development of places to provide key services and amenities that contribute to a high quality of life.<\/p>\n

It focuses on a more regional approach to service delivery, which would change the way services are provided, how resources are dedicated, and how systems are supported.<\/p>\n

Approved by the Michigan Municipal League Board of Trustees in June of 2013, this policy agenda proposes actions that will re-establish a partnership for prosperity in four key areas: Funding the future; Michigan in Motion; Place for Talent; and Strength in Structure.<\/p>\n

Taping the Prosperity Agenda radio show in WJR studios in Detroit.<\/p><\/div>This Partnership for Place plan is so important that we dedicated the League’s October Prosperity Agenda Radio show to this topic. The radio show airs monthly on News\/Talk 760 WJR. League CEO Dan Gilmartin hosts the show, which is co-sponsored by the League and the Michigan State Housing Development Authority. Dan’s media co-host for this month’s show is Detroit News reporter Chad Livengood. Show guests are the League\u2019s Samantha Harkins, Paw Paw Village Manager Larry Nielsen and Berkley Councilmember and League Board Member Steve Baker.<\/p>\n

While the radio show is set to air 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2013, you can listen to it now at the League\u2019s website here<\/a> or by subscribing to the FREE iTunes podcast<\/a>. View additional photos from the show taping here<\/a> in this set on the League’s flickr page.<\/p>\n
