In the Season 1 finale of Better Together, host Jonathan Lile-Sexton sits down with Laconia City Manager Kirk Beattie to talk about how Laconia became the first city in New Hampshire to launch a social district — and what it actually takes to build one from the ground up. They get into the economics, the public health questions you probably didn't think to ask, and why a former firefighter-turned-city-manager might be exactly the right person to think about what happens when things go sideways. A great conversation to close out the season. Join episode 8 of Better Together now!
