“It is no secret that I have had serious disagreements with the Moccia Administration’s handling of the Board of Education, city budgeting, economic development and the treatment of city workers," Miklave said in an email. "I want to do more than simply criticize the current administration. I want to be part of a larger discussion about what we can do to change the trajectory of our city."
