<p>Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg has a new, ambitious economic development plan for the city. Pat Mulloy is the man in charge of making it happen. Mulloy, a lawyer who spent most of his career managing senior living companies, joined Greenberg as deputy mayor for economic development earlier this year. In this WDRB+ Studio conversation with WDRB's Chris Otts, Mulloy discussed the broad goals of the plan and how Mulloy plans to prevent it from languishing on a shelf with little action, like so many previous plans have over the years.</p>
<p>In the conversation, Mulloy touched on:</p>
<p>-Why making it easier to build housing, including low-priced
housing in every neighborhood, is a “moral imperative”</p>
<p>-The importance of international immigration to Louisville’s
growth</p>
<p>-Remaking downtown in the remote work era</p>
<p>-How Louisville might follow in the steps of Austin and
Nashville</p>
<p>-How to boost entrepreneurial activity and venture capital</p>
<p>-Why it all revolves the success of the University of Louisville</p>
