Courage: Small Town Mayor Addresses Extreme Storms and Flooding

Titusville, Florida is the county seat of Brevard County, Florida, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population of the city was 48,789.
It’s located  between Orlando and the Kennedy Space Center.

Mayor Andrew Connors took to YouTube to explain it was time to do something about stormwater systems no longer up to the job of handling extreme rain events.
I’ve had the privilege of observing what real courage looks like up close, and it’s not what people think.
It’s not Sly Stallone breaking into a bar and beating people up.
It’s a lot more like this man speaking simple truth to people who may not want to hear it. It can be ragged, and messy, and it likely will not make feel all creamy dreamy, or increase your popularity. It’s about doing something that has to be done.
