The LWV Cincinnati Area asked questions on the issues of all candidates for this office.
Read the answers from Mary E. Speidel

|
- Village Government
-
Leaders in Village government should set the examples that foster Community Spirit, Trust in Government, Respect for our Heritage, Respect for each other, and Volunteerism.
- Major Projects under Consideration
-
I am in favor of funding the Gorman Heritage Farm and the Civic Center Building projects, and installing walk/bike trails thoughout the Village. The Village should continue to purchase properties along the east side of Reading Road, and retain these properties as open, green spaces that will eventually make Reading Road a park-like boulevard through the heart of Evendale.
- Good Fiscal Management
-
I believe that proper financial management and ethical business practices are the foundation of successful municipal government.
