60. Public Service Profile ⇒ Scottsville Town Administrator Matt Lawless on organizing a community
This year we're profiling some of Virginia's local administrators, public servants who are often behind the scenes making things happen with creativity, passion, and care for the place and people surrounding them.
"I like being able to do all kinds of things in one day," says Scottsville Town Administrator Matt Lawless who talked to us about the variety of challenges, joys, and rewards of serving a small town with a historic district, flood risks, a resilient community network, strong regional partnerships, and eyes on the future. "I see my work as understanding what the community wants to see happen, identifying the parts of it that government is good at, and then find volunteers and get other people excited. How can we do this together? It works better that way, and it's more fun than just paying for things with taxes." Hear more about the fun right here or wherever you stream your podcasts.
