Questions & Answers

1. What are your qualifications for office? (50 word limit)

Currently serving as Council person and Vice Mayor. I am a retired Elementary Sch. Assist. Principal and teacher. I have worked diligently with our city manager and other council members. I have held other leadership positions in other organizations. My skills and leadership abilities will serve our city.

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

I will do a mailing to the four targeted areas giving them the details of CRA's tax abatement program and the information on how to qualify for the prog. and will work with our city mgmr and our Steering Committee in developing a City Central plan for our downtown area. All four (4) standards have been met for qualifying for the Tree City USA award, documentation and the application process will be completed by December.

3. State three actions that you recommend to promote regional cooperation, and explain how you would implement each action? (150 word limit)

To promote regional cooperation I would suggest following the Hamilton County's regional planning commissions' recommendations. to convert the HCRPC to a county planning commission. This would provide an opportunity for stake holders from around the county to have group discussions on topics of common interest, housing, economic development, green space, etc...
