The city’s skyrocketing employer pension contribution and possible options to reduce it
Strategies to address crime, including appropriate levels of police staffing and investment in violence prevention
The challenges facing the Milwaukee Health Department and how it should function post-pandemic
The need for more affordable housing and the role of city government in promoting it
City economic development policies, including the future of Century City and the Hop
