“I am honored and excited to accept the role of the GMC’s board chair. The organization’s new strategic plan presents an opportunity to help solve many of Milwaukee’s most pressing challenges,” Anderson said. “We have already seen much progress within our four strategic pillars (fiscal strength, education, public safety, and infrastructure), and I look forward to helping catapult this momentum for the good of the GMC and Milwaukee.”
