STAR TRIBUNE — Tom Hoch doesn’t hold still.
He doesn’t stand in his garden without pulling weeds. He doesn’t sit at his dining room table without brushing away dust. He doesn’t talk without leaning forward and looking hard at the person he’s speaking to, his gestures filling the space between them.
The 62-year-old Minneapolis native has been a teacher, a lawyer, a city employee, a CEO. He’s served on more boards and volunteered for more organizations than he can list.
Now, after 40 years of working in the city, Hoch wants to do one more thing: He wants to run the city.
