| Collapse all
- Making Cincinnati the Greenest city in America - Mark has a plan to convert the city's feet to electric & install 500 EV charging stations. He also wants to add 100+ miles of protected bike lanes in the city,. With Cincinnati having the 11th worst air in the country, these changes will improve health, create good paying jobs and save the city and residents money.
- Making our streets safer - Mark has a plan to make our streets safer. This includes Limiting speeds in residential areas, Enforcing speed limits, implementing Active transportation policies to enable people to walk/bike more easily and to Deploy proven tools to calm traffic such as road diets, bump outs, speed humps, etc. Mark has led in this area on Clifton Town Meeting - he will bring some of that expertise to bear on City Council. He will also leverage his Collaborative Leadership style to bring stakeholders together in order to address the urgent issue of gun violence which is tearing our community apart.
- Thriving neighborhoods - Mark will take his experience at P&G and as an entrepreneur to help lead work to create conditions for our economy to thrive across the 52 neighborhoods via enabling start-ups and creating conditions that would foster growth among larger companies and boomerang employees who are working remotely. He will work with community councils on enabling them to create bottoms-up Community Plans that let them craft the type of community they want to be in the future. This also means investing in our parks and rec centers - key enablers of creating opportunity for many of our children and families.
I also looked up to my mother-in-law. She like my mother was a strong willed woman. She left Poland in April 1940 - we're Jewish so that's relevant. It took her family a year to get to the U.S. through Russia and Japan. She was someone very well read and engaged in public policy. She died in December 2018 after she got run over by a car in NY at the age of 81. She lived a full life of intellectual pursuit, engagement in the arts, etc. She like my parents are a model that I would like to follow.
A Safer Cincinnati - redesigning our streets for people so we save lives.
