Welcome to Part Two of my series "From Trash to Treasure" which describes how one man swindled two Ohio cities out of millions of dollars as they tried to revitalize their Cleveland and East Cleveland communities. For this episode, I invited former Richmond Heights, Ohio, Mayor Miesha Headen to join me. Before being elected mayor, Headen served on the Richmond Heights City Council for nearly a decade. Today, Headen is an award-winning author and advocate for impoverished people. Headen and I explore what measures cities like East Cleveland and Cleveland should take to prevent another "George Michael Riley" from taking advantage of them. We also explore ways that small governments can and should partner with other entities to better leverage themselves when they are engaged in community and economic development initiatives. This podcast is being submitted to the Supreme Court of Ohio for Continuing Legal Education credits.
