Description

On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Michael Sanderson and Kevin Kinnally discuss the latest news and notes from Annapolis. At the top of the list is school funding—particularly an update on the Kirwan Commission's Funding Formula Workgroup, the thirteen-member panel charged with working through what is perhaps the most challenging portion of The Blueprint for Maryland’s Future — the development of a plan to finance, realign, and apportion the costs of these ambitious, but expensive, goals.Next up is Maryland's fiscal report card. We explain the significance of the State retaining its triple-AAA bond rating, and what it means for Maryland's upcoming bond sale.Finally, we highlight some of our favorite podcasts (besides this one, of course).MACo has made the podcast available through both iTunes and Google Play Music by searching Conduit Street Podcast. You can also listen on our Conduit Street blog with a recap and link to the podcast.Useful LinksPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: School Funding Workgroup Sharpens Focus on Wealth FormulasPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: School Funding Formula Workgroup Charts Path ForwardPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: Presiding Officers Name School Funding Formula WorkgroupPrevious Conduit Street Coverage: Maryland Retains Triple-AAA Bond Rating, Prepares to Sell $550M in GO Bonds

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.
