The Northern Gateway of Cincinnati, Hartwell, is a diverse & unique neighborhood in Cincinnati. It is named after the Vice President of the CH&D Railway, which had a large station near today's Hamilton County Fairgrounds. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Hartwell #Cincinnati

I was joined by David Whitehead, President of the NAACP, and several community leaders to announce my
"Harm to Hope" initiative today. This effort will direct proceeds generated from legal cannabis sales to the communities most impacted by its enforcement.

Cincinnati is full of hidden gems like this one right in Carthage. The Seymour Nature Preserve is a beautiful park along the Mill Creek and just minutes away from the Carthage Business District. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Carthage #Cincinnati

I appreciated the opportunity to appear on the Meyerside Chats podcast this week - a national podcast which "seeks to eliminate the 'us vs them' narrative" and toxic polarization.

Revive 75 has been a decade-long plan to revitalize the neighborhoods along the I-75 corridor, and it's nearing the completion phase. This is an exciting opportunity to bring more housing to the neighborhood and along the Mill Creek. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #SpringGrove #Cincinnati

There were two presentations in Housing & Growth Committee today about the impact of lead in children in Cincinnati. The data is clear - exposure to lead harms our youth and is negatively associated with IQ, causing increased behavioral issues and lower school performance.

I'm proud to have voted in favor of the Ranchvale Connection on the Little Miami Scenic Trail today. This extension makes travel for pedestrians and bicyclists easier & safer to other regional trails.

Today, I put forward a motion requesting that the administration identify locations for youth football, similar to our public baseball fields. Access to organized and safe recreational activities for children is important to ensure our youth have healthy outlets.

UC's Main Campus is located in the neighborhoods of Heights and Corryville, and has seen dramatic change over the years. As the University's enrollment has expanded, the need for more student housing and development has increased as well. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Heights #Cincinnati

I put forward a motion in committee today requesting data on traffic citations by neighborhood. Injuries and fatalities have decreased over the years, but we need to stay vigilant that our enforcements efforts continue to work.

Bellevue Hill Park in Clifton Heights is another amazing view Over-the-Rhine and the West End. Originally an incline house built in 1876, the park is now a hidden gem on the end of Ohio Avenue. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #CliftonHeights #Cincinnati

In B&F committee yesterday, I introduced a motion to study the idea of expanding child care to CRC centers that do not currently offer those services. With the loss of ~3,000 child care seats since 2020, this is a necessary expansion for both children & parents.
