Questions & Answers

1. What are your Qualifications for Office? (50 word limit)

I am the only candidate who has extensive knowledge and training in urban issues, has the life experience to touch base with every citizen of Cincinnati, and am a true believer in Cincinnati's full potential.

2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (100 word limit)

All of the plans to address Robert Wilson's priorities are located on the 'strategy page' of his website, which is located at http://www.wilsonforcincy.com

3. What steps would you take to ensure that all public facilities are accessible to people with disabilities? (100 words limit)

Robert Wilson believes that accessibility is failing everyone. Public transportation in this city is inefficient, and Robert Wilson would like the city to work with SORTA to fix this problem. He would also like to get handicap accessible taxi cabs to make up for where Metro has failed.

4. What specific steps will you take to expand recycling services in your community? (100 words limit)

Robert Wilson lives in the most wasteful community of all. Downtown. Because most buildings have a significant amount of units it makes recycling and waste management difficult. Robert Wilson would like to see recycling services expanded to every community that wants it.

5. What steps would you take to provide affordable housing for all residents of your community? (100 words limit)

Robert Wilson would like to create incentives for private developers that work to emulate HOPE VI projects. This creates an atmosphere where all types of people live right next door. By making subsidized, rentals, and owner occupied housing together you increase the opportunities for everyone.
