Partnering with residents on budget priorities in St Louis, with Yusuf Daneshyar
Update: 2025-01-29
Description
When the City of St Louis lost its much-loved football team, the Rams, the litigation resulted in a $250 million-dollar settlement fund. The city had to decide how to spend it, so they took that decision to the city's residents, in what our guest Yusuf Daneshyar calls an act of “co-legislation”.
Yusuf is the Director of Communications for the St. Louis Board of Aldermen President Megan E. Green. In this episode, he explains the design and strategy for this public participation process, some of the more surprising – and quite touching – budget priorities chosen by St Louis residents, and the city's long-term vision for legislating in partnership with the public.
