1. How would you implement your top priority?
|
Answer from Stephanie Stoller:
Inadequate storm water drainage is a serious problem to a number of residents in ward 2 of Blue Ash. The so called 100 year rains are falling as frequently as once a year. Because of my insistence on on the seriousness of the matter, the City of Blue Ash is now setting aside money in the current budget and future budgets for storm water studies as well as storm water alleviation in the problem areas.

2. Numerous important issues including transportation, land use planning, housing and economic development for the Greater Hamilton County regions are being deliberated by OKI's Land Use Commission and Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission and Planning Partnership COMPASS; how engaged should local government be in these planning activities? If elected, how would you participate in these planning activities?
|
Answer from Stephanie Stoller:
The suburban areas of Hamilton County along with the City of Cincinnati must work together on these planning activities. The issues being discussed do not stop at City, Village or Township borders. The City of Blue Ash is already involved with OKI and Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission. I also have been involved with COMPASS. We must remember that the suburbs are nothing without the City of Cincinnati, so we must work together.

3. Ohio Department of Natural Resources in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the National Recycling Coalition conducted a state-specific study and found recycling businesses in Ohio generated $650.6 million dollars in state government revenue. If elected how would you promote recycling and support recycling programs currently in place in your community to reduce solid waste generation?
|
Answer from Stephanie Stoller:
Blue Ash residents already do recycle. Businesses, if they realize the cost of waste collection, will start to consider recycling. Advertising to the residents and businesses could possibly increase the use of recycling.
