Meet Your Mayor Episode 3: Eric Bruen of the City of Ridgecrest

In episode 3, we return from a short break to talk to the newly seated mayor of Ridgecrest Eric Bruen. The City of Ridgecrest has been through a rough couple of years, with two devastating earthquakes in 2019 and then the COVID-19 pandemic. You would think the struggles would have a new mayor discouraged, but in fact, Bruen said Ridgecrest is thriving! In this episode, we learn more about the development within the city, what we can expect to see out the nearby military bases, and why Ridgecrest could become the new rural tech hub of the Central Valley.
