Questions & Answers

1. How would you implement your top priority?

With the completed sale of the White Pillars property, funds will be available to support the redevelopment of the Loveland Madeira Road corridor to the City. While no definite plan is yet in place, these funds could be used for low interest rate financing; design assistance to comply with the recently approved Loveland Madeira Road design standards; and other incentives.

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?

Recently the Loveland City Council approved a new comprehensive master plan, which will be implemented in conjunction with the OKI Master Plan. This will include paying particular attention to green space preservation and the effect of storm water run off.

3. Ohio Department of Natural Resources in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the National Recycling Coalition conducted a state-specific study and found recycling businesses in Ohio generated $650.6 million dollars in state government revenue. If elected how would you promote recycling and support recycling programs currently in place in your community to reduce solid waste generation?

The City of Loveland currently has 98% participation in the curbside recycling program. I support offering curbside recycling containers to all citizens and periodically promoting recycling and its benefits in the City newsletter.
