Description

Mayor Cherelle Parker’s first budget proposal follows up on her campaign promise to make Philly “the safest, cleanest, and greenest big city in the nation,” by requesting funds for expenses like police technology and street cleaning. City Cast Philly podcast host Trenae Nuri speaks with Sean Collins Walsh, City Hall reporter at The Philadelphia Inquirer, about what this budget says about Parker’s ambitions and whether or not City Council is likely to approve it.

City Cast Philly is the daily news podcast about the city you love (and maybe sometimes hate?) and the Philadelphians who are working hard every day to make this place better. Each weekday morning, host Trenae Nuri will chat with people all across Philly’s diverse neighborhoods about issues that matter to you. Whether that’s what do I even do on the weekends in this city with endless options, or how do I get the bus to actually stop, or how is this city going to keep our kids safe and educated? City Cast Philly is here for it all. It’s that energetic, informative conversation you might overhear at your neighborhood coffee shop. But with City Cast Philly, you’re always welcome to join in.
