Show Notes
Newly selected Shelton Mayor Sharon Sherman sits down at Uracco Coffee to talk about how city government really works in Shelton.
In this conversation, Sherman explains the council-manager form of government, what the mayor’s role does—and doesn’t—include, and why progress often takes time. She shares her perspective as both a business owner and council member, touching on downtown vacancies, small business support, homelessness, public safety, and the balance between growth and city basics like infrastructure.
The discussion also looks at housing, zoning, walkability, and what Shelton can do to attract investment while staying within state law.
