Mayor O'Connor on Life After the Draft, Taxing Nonprofits & Public Bathrooms
Mayor Corey O'Connor just reached his 100th day in office, and he's sitting down with host Megan Harris to talk about his main accomplishments so far, opportunities during the NFL Draft, and what's in store for Pittsburgh after the big party. Plus, we're bringing the mayor YOUR questions, like whether voluntary donations from some of the Big Five nonprofits are just bandaids, how the city can support our unhoused communities, what it would take to get public bathrooms Downtown and in the Strip District, and even his favorite iced tea.
