President Obama named our City Councilmember Brad Lander a "Champion of Change" for initiating participatory budgeting in the City Council. In 2012, he and three other councilmembers participated in the project, and in 2013, he and seven others did.
Brad will be in Washington, D.C., today to receive the award, created by President Obama "to honor people and groups that "positively impact' their communities."
Congratulations, Brad! And thanks for the positive impact you've been having on Kensington and Windsor Terrace.
