Legends of County Governance: Stories from MACo's Early Years
On this week's podcast, MACo's Executive Director, Michael Sanderson, sits down with his predecessor, longtime Director David Bliden. They talk through issues facing counties back in the 80s and 90s, and note how many of them continue to resonate today. David also talks through his beginnings at MACo, and his vision for MACo as a vibrant and well-respected voice for county services. Great stories about former Senate President Miller, MACo President Dutch Ruppersberger, and other highlights of David's years as a county leader. A little bit of inside baseball, a little bit of memory lane, and a good insight into what has made MACo tick through the years.
