Description

On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Kevin Kinnally and Michael Sanderson discuss the latest news and notes from Annapolis, including a recap of the [Kirwan] Commission on Innovation and Excellence in Education's latest meeting — which saw a deep reaction to the formula funding workgroup’s proposals to “phase-in” the Commission’s series of recommendations; the latest on a publisher's e-book embargo — and why county libraries are pushing back; and why one major airport is banning curbside passengers pickups by ridesharing companies like Uber and Lyft.You can listen to previous episodes of the Conduit Street Podcast on our website.Useful LinksPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: Kirwan Commission 11/12: Fazed by Phase-In; Triggered by Teacher TestingPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: Full Kirwan Commission Gets Updated, Back on Track to Finish WorkPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: County Libraries Respond to E-book Embargo

A podcast on Maryland policy and politics, covering state and county issues. We’ll cover the General Assembly, Governor, state agencies, and county leaders and how it all affects Marylanders and the public services they depend on. Counties deliver education, public safety, land use, infrastructure, and most front-line services to Maryland residents. This podcast from the Conduit Street Annapolis headquarters of MACo, the Maryland Association of Counties, touches on it all.
