An introduction to a report released by the non-partisan
Public Policy Forum notes that although many Milwaukeeans are frustrated with the problems of their County government, any “bold and far-reaching solutions”
must be tempered with “thoughtful, objective and rigorous analysis, and that
sometimes incremental reform is a more appropriate strategy.” Rob Henken, President of the Public Policy
Forum will address the complex issues that surround potential structural
changes to Milwaukee County government.
This event is free and open to the public.
