It’s Time for a Change in Blue Ash

I stood alongside my neighbors in opposing the proposed stadium in the Neighborhoods of Summit Park. Together, we organized letter and email campaigns to City Council and showed up in force at meetings to make our voices heard. I personally addressed Council, highlighting the flaws in the project and urging them to put residents ahead of the developer.

Because of our community’s united effort, the developer withdrew the proposal before it ever came to a vote.

But our work isn’t done. Summit Park deserves development that benefits the entire community — not just a select few.

That’s why I am calling for the creation of a Task Force made up of residents, business leaders, city officials, and the developer. Together, this group can identify solutions that reflect the will of the community and create lasting value for our city.

It’s time to move forward — but in a way that works for all of us.

$30,000 of taxpayer money — handed to a non-profit with no real oversight.
That money was spent on trips to Germany for City Officials, Council Members, and business insiders.

Not economic development.
Not community investment.
Just taxpayer-funded perks for the politically connected.

It’s time to end the giveaways and demand accountability, transparency, and development that benefits all residents — not just the privileged few.

Contractors for both the Tower at Summit Park and Town Square turned out to be either incompetent or financially unstable, forcing the city to replace them. These failures drove up costs, caused major delays, and deprived the city — and its residents — of critical revenue.

In September 2022, City Council approved a $1.5 million grant to a developer for asbestos removal at the former P&G facility on Reed Hartman Highway. Three years later, after the money has been spent, all the city has to show for it is a dirt lot overgrown with weeds.

We need to stop cozying up to developers and giving away our money with nothing expected in return
