Acerca de PA Local

Most people are aware of their local government. Some may even know their elected officials. But how many people understand the difference between what their municipality does and what their county does? How about infrastructure and services like roads, libraries, transit and recycling - how do those work? The PA Local podcast tries to shine a light on the workings of local government and the services that it provides with the taxes we all pay. If you want to know how local government is structured and how it functions, this podcast is for you.

Tom Zilla of the Centre Region Planning Agency, and lead planner for the Centre County MPO, discusses the structure and management of transportation projects at the local level.
