In this episode, Dave breaks down the real roles and responsibilities of your local government - from the mayor and council to the administrator and fiscal officer. Learn how each position serves the community, how law enforcement functions under the Wood County Sheriff’s Office, and why good governance means stewardship, not power. He also provides some strategic ideas on how to preserve our historic charm while still allowing for growth.
It’s a down-to-earth look at how small-town government really works - and how every servant plays a part in keeping Grand Rapids thriving.
