The state of Arizona and its cities have had a bit of a tense relationship over the past several years.

State lawmakers have debated and, in some cases, approved bills that cities say infringe on their ability to deal with local issues — some of those disagreements have ended up in court. It’s with this background that Maricopa Mayor Christian Price takes over as president of the League of Arizona Cities and Towns.

He joined The Show to discuss his upcoming two-year term.
