What if you realized that, as a taxpayer, you’re not just a voter-you’re both an investor and a customer in your local government? In this talk, Jennifer Schoeneck uncovers how every dollar you pay in taxes helps shape your community’s future, while local governments work to deliver essential services like clean water, safe streets, and public parks. Drawing from her private sector experience, Jennifer advocates for a customer-focused approach in local government, where communication, transparency, and modern tools ensure taxpayers see real returns on their investment. Jennifer Schoeneck, Director of Economic Development for the City of Escondido, is a leader in bringing tech-forward and innovative approaches to local government. Drawing on her extensive experience in the private sector, Jennifer has successfully translated best practices into public administration, achieving significant efficiencies and enhanced service delivery for businesses, residents, and visitors.
Recognized with several awards for innovative program design, Jennifer has created process improvements within local government to better serve the public. Her recent accomplishments include spearheading the region’s inaugural AgTech Startup Program, adopting the city’s first public art strategic work plan, streamlining business license processing, and leading policy design for short-term rentals and commercial building vacancies. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
