A Conversation with Randy Bruce: Farmington Hills Councilman and Mayoral Candidate
In this episode of I Can See Clearly Now, host T.R. Carr sits down with longtime councilman and mayoral candidate Randy Bruce for an in-depth conversation about leadership, growth, and accountability in Farmington Hills. Bruce discusses why effective leadership matters in a “weak mayor” system, his record of accomplishments—from the city’s water tower project to redevelopment along Grand River—and his priorities for the future, including a new senior center and stronger economic outreach to local businesses.
Listeners will gain insight into how local government really functions, what it takes to keep a city thriving after it is fully built out, and why Bruce believes collaboration, transparency, and data-driven decisions are key to Farmington Hills’ future.
