Questions & Answers

1. What are the two most pressing issues you will face if you are elected? (50 word limit)

I believe that Hamilton County must make economic development a priority. Additionally, we must do all we can to identify cost savings and eliminate waste in government to guide our county through difficult economic times.

2. How will you address each of those issues? (100 word limit)

The future of our county depends on our commitment to grow the local economy + economic development must become our top priority. I will work to identify every available resource to make our county more competitive and attractive to businesses seeking to invest in this region. I will also identify additional areas of partnership or collaboration that have been overlooked or underutilized. Additional involvement by the Greater Cincinnati Port Authority and the Cincinnati Chamber will play an important role. We must also seek to identify cost savings in Hamilton County government by utilizing technology and operating more efficiently.
