What I stand for....

By Robert A. Goering

Candidate for Treasurer; County of Hamilton; Republican Party

This information is provided by the candidate
These are my views on government service...
I believe that government can do more for the citizens without creating large bureaucracies. In the Treasurer's Office, I have cut the general fund budget over 5% since 1992 - in actual dollars. I have still been able to offer new services like credit card payments, TOP Program (paying taxes in monthly installments), and expanded Unclaimed Funds program (returning millions of dollars to the citizens of our great county). Our computerization allows the schools, Cincinnati Zoo, and all the political subdivisions to timely receive the tax disbursements, and the Treasury balances daily with the County Auditor. Every penny is invested with the priority: Safety, Liquidity and Yield - in that order. As President of the Investment Advisory Committee for the last 16 years, we have not, and never will, take any risks with fiduciary taxpayer funds.
