Fixing flooding, sewers, and more with an eye to the future (ft. Candice Miller, Macomb County Public Works)

One of the most important assets we have in Metro Detroit is our water. From drinking it to our access to it, it's a vital part of what makes our region an attractive place to live.

So in a wide-ranging conversation with Macomb County Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller, some of the topics we touch on:

- Why we should invest to rebuild our antiquated sewer systems for the future

- Eliminating combined sewer overflows to protect the Great Lakes and reduce flooding

- Dealing with a contentious issue of unpaid bills in Highland Park

- Why she decided to focus back on local, practical things in Michigan instead of Washington

- A program to collect trash from our drains and waterways before it gets into the Great Lakes
