On the next Discover Janesville with Yuri Rashkin: conversation with Janesville Superintendent Karen Schulte. Dr. Schulte answers your questions, as we discuss dress code for teachers and students, the tragedy in Newtown and whether guns have place in schools. Next, we check in with State Representative Janis Ringhand who was just re-elected to her second term, and Deb Kolste, who is about to be sworn in as Janesvilles newest State Representative. Finally, a conversation with Rock County Economic Development Director James Otterstein about the state of our local and regional economy. Our guest grades the economic performance of 2012 and gives us his forecast for 2013. We also talk about the role financial incentives play in getting businesses to move to an area, and when is it a good idea to walk away from an economic development project. All that and more on the first Discover Janesville podcast of 2013!
