#LoveLakeland

Former Lakeland Mayor and Lakeland's longest serving public official and his lovely wife Linda Bagley Wiggs join us in studio to talk about some of their greatest legacies: the #LoveLakeland movement and the City Maker award. Throughout their service to the Lakeland community, the Wiggs' focus was on preserving the best attributes of Lakeland while simultaneously seeking out opportunities to grow and improve. Their passion was encapsulated in the #LoveLakeland movement which fostered civic pride and a connection between the people and the place where they live, work and play. That process included recognizing those in the community who gave selflessly for the benefit of the community. Together with Chrissanne Long, the Wiggs' created  and the City Maker award which continues to live on as part of Mayor Mutz's mayoral agenda.  Although the Wiggs' are now retired, their impact continues to shape Lakeland and the hope is that the path they forged will be an inspiration to other cities throughout Polk County.
