Congratulations to Svante Myrick, TCAD Board Member and Ithaca Mayor, on being named to Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Law & Policy list!  Those chosen for this list “are the young voices that will be shaping U.S. policymaking from both the public and private sectors” in 2017.
Forbes wrote that “Myrick was first elected Mayor of Ithaca, New York at the age of 24. He inherited a $3 million budget deficit, which he closed while ultimately lowering taxes. He has added new infrastructure and housing, and has revitalized public transportation. He was recently re-elected with 89% of the vote.”
