One thought on “Bill Taft: Our mayor-centric civic culture needs to be replaced

  1. With all due respect, I think the lack of key leaders (your term) is a bigger issue than the mayor, and that pool has dried up as local companies have been bought up or closed.

    Who is the Jim Morris of this generation?
    Mark Miles?
    Robert Welch?
    Ted Boehm?
    (The list could go on)
