974. Summer Village of Sunbreaker Cove Mayor Mike Bruni

On the shores of Alberta’s lakes, the view may be peaceful. But governing a summer village can be anything but simple. Behind the scenery are real decisions about public spending, development, infrastructure, and the expectations residents have of the people they elect.

So tonight, we’re asking a straightforward question: what does effective leadership look like in a community where every decision can hit close to home?

Our guest is Mike Bruni, Mayor of the Summer Village of Sunbreaker Cove.

We’ll discuss the issues confronting the village, the priorities driving council’s decisions, and the challenges of preserving a community’s appeal while planning for its future.

And perhaps most importantly, we’ll explore how the mayor defines accountability to the people he serves.

I'm Christopher Brown. This is Cross Border Interviews.
