1. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Frances R. "Fran" (Reardon) Romweber:

I intend to be "a watchdog" to make sure that no one person or entity abuse the rights of this historic and unique community. I belive in fiscal responsibility. But lowest taxes at the expense of our independence and heritage is not my primary goal. We moved to North Bend because of its charm and it peaceful community. I will focus my endeavors as a council person to protecting these.


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 Frances R. "Fran" (Reardon) Romweber:

Regional planning is of utmost importance! I belive in local government; however I would encourage North Bend to be active and responsive in regional planning. In my opinion, it is one of the most important solutions to our problems. It is wonderful to preserve your identity but we must also be cooperative and progressive in being part of the big picture.


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 Frances R. "Fran" (Reardon) Romweber:

We are part of a recycling program in North Bend, and it seems to be working very well. If elected I would certainly promote continued recycling efforts.
