Jon Mitchell has been mayor of New Bedford longer than anyone in the modern era.
The only rival to his 14 straight years in office is Charles Ashley, and Ashley served 23 of his 33 years in office in sporadic one-year terms when city government was nothing like today’s $561 million-a-year operation.
Halfway through his sixth term in office, and well into his 15th year leading the city, Mayor Mitchell will be Jack Spillane’s guest on The Chat for the full hour.
Join Jack on April 22 at 1 p.m. as he talks with this most consequential chief executive in the city’s modern era, and learns what Mitchell’s goals are for the future.
