1. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Carol Bullock Carpenter:

First set our priorities take care of the cities daily needs, keep upgrading our police, fire, service & recreation departments. These services will attract new businesses & families to our community. Only by council working together along with the administration can this be accomplished. As President of Council I will demand respect, order & peace at Council meetings in order to make decisions for the betterment of our community.


2. Numerous important issues including transportation, land use planning, housing and economic development for the Greater Hamilton County regions are being deliberated by OKI's Land Use Commission and Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission and Planning Partnership COMPASS; how engaged should local government be in these planning activities? If elected, how would you participate in these planning activities?
