Metro Funding Struggles, Police Shortages, and Concert Season
About this episode
In today's roundup, friend of City Cast Hannah Denham, from the Washington Business Journal, is here to talk about everyone’s favorite subject: How screwed is Metro? Their funding is running out, and they know it. How do they fix it? Plus we talk about how many cops D.C. needs, and a summer of bountiful music festivals.
Our Friday roundups wouldn’t be possible without all the great local reporting going on:
Read Hannah Denham’s piece on Metro’s lack of funding.
Peter Hermann from the Washington Post has all the info you need on DC police and their hiring problems.
So. Many. Concerts. All Things Go, Re:SET, you name it, it’s happening.
