Every month, Mayor Bliss or a representative from the city will be open to all questions sent in during or in anticipation of her live on-air show "City Connection." The mayor will respond to citizen questions submitted by calling in, emailing, tweeting or just posting a question in the comments section at the bottom of the article page. This month, Mayor Bliss is joined by special guest Shannon Harris from Our Community's Children. Topics include the city's LEAD program, Mayor's Youth Council, connecting children to nature, and other programs run by Our Community’s Children
For over 18 years, the mayors of Grand Rapids have hosted City Connection, a monthly, live call-in show on GRTV’s Livewire, Comcast channel 24. Mayor John Logie started the program in 1992 as a way to share mayoral perspective with Grand Rapidians and to bring a little more transparency to local government. City Connection is an opportunity to interact directly with one of our city’s top elected officials.
