Innovative Local Government

 

Building a County that works for everyone means improving the way we can deliver vital services to those who need it most. We are modernizing how County Government works to get tools in the hands of people, and leverage partnerships for progress at the City, State, and Federal level.

 

• Decentralizing County services through hubs (Midtown Exchange Center opened – 2005, Plymouth Ave Service Hub opened – 2014, Hi-Lake Service Hub opened – 2017)

• Streamlining Emergency Assistance to be faster and more accessible

• Prioritizing working families, renters and tenants

• On-call housing rehab crew to fix code violations allows tenants to remain in place, reduce busing for mobile families

• Bringing livable wage careers to MFIP households through tuition-free career pathways and career plans
