Abstract:

Last year, six new members under the age of forty were appointed to the Charlotte City Council. Under an older but also first-term mayor, Vi Lyles, the diverse council is far less patient, less devoted to process, more innovative, more willing to look afresh at the way the city government operates, and unafraid to challenge the old guard. The Council is also demonstrating some of their millennial generation’s defining characteristics which embrace technology and an entrepreneurial approach.
