Avenu named eight experts to its board of advisors, a group that will provide strategic advice to the company as it continues to execute its strategy.

The new board brings a range of perspectives on local government finance such as budgeting, tax and fee collection, and long-term challenges of addressing budget deficits, unfunded mandates and infrastructure costs.

Group members are:

• Sonny Brasfield, executive director of the Alabama City Commission
• Fran David, retired city manager of Hayward, California
• John Shirey, retired city manager of Sacramento, California
• Jeff Downes, city manager for Vestavia Hills, Alabama
• Steven Jacobs, political director for the California State Controller
• Jeff Kolin, retired city manager of Beverly Hills, California
• Anna Roach, chief strategy officer of Fulton County, Georgia
• Bedell Terry, retired director of compliance for the Washington, D.C. Administrative Office of Tax & Revenue

"The experience, insight and willingness of this group to contribute to Avenu's strategy further aligns our commitment to working with local governments," says CEO Paul Colangelo. "Together we will guide cities and counties on obtaining more of the revenue they need to maintain service levels and plan for the future of their communities."
