Meet Downers Grove Mayor Robert Barnett

Downers Grove Mayor Robert Barnett joins Spilling the Village Tea and explains the how and the why of so many local topics and issues! Yes there is an Environmental Sustainability Plan but hear the behind the scenes on how and who negotiates contracts. Zoning and rezoning are discussed, property taxes and more packed into this episode! Plus the Mayor has a kickass playlist that I compiled so you can now find it on spotify!
