Mayor-Elect Andy Schor on WKAR: "This Is The Next Lansing"

Lansing mayor-elect and State Rep. Andy Schor talked with Brooke Allen on WKAR's "Morning Edition" on November 8, 2017. 

Schor will be the new mayor of Lansing in January 2018. He replaces Virg Bernero, who announced in February he would not seek re-election after a 12-year run as mayor.

The mayor-elect will be joined on council by three newcomers: Peter Spadafore, Brian T. Jackson and Jeremy A. Garza.

"This is the next version of Lansing," said Schor. "We've got new council members with new ideas. We've got council members coming back who have been very positive in this campaign."

Schor talked about everything from his priorities, such as road and city services, schools and more with WKAR's Brooke Allen.
