Presently I am a member of the Springdale Planning Commission and on the Board of Trustees of Springdale Offering Support (SOS).


2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (100 word limit)

Answer from Bob Diehl:

Senior management in the majority of the City's department are coming near to retirement age and proper succession in those positions must take place to insure that The City of Springdale remains the "Best kept secret in the Cincinnati".

Our city population is maturing and we must continue & improve seniors programs. to meet the needs of this segment of the population.

Springdale retail marketplace must continue to meet & exceed the expectations of the public to insure our leadership within the retail marketplace. At the same time, we must encourage new businesses to move into our area.


3. State three actions that you recommend to promote regional cooperation, and explain how you would implement each action? (150 word limit)

Answer from Bob Diehl:

There also must be a greater emphasis placed on economical development within the City of Springdale. This is a difficult task, but a task that must be successful to insure the economical strength of our community.

We must do everything possible to maintain our leadership position within the retail-shopping marketplace. We have many things to be proud of within the City of Springdale and we must showcase those things to attract new businesses, but at the same time we must support and promote our business residents that are already located here.
