1. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Tracy Hueber:

I want to have a professional evaluation of the land and water flow as we stand today, because due to the growth and development in our Village things have changed. What was done years ago, is not working now. So a professional approach is needed to get the job done in our current state. It's all a matter of following the peoples' needs.


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 Tracy Hueber:

I feel local government needs to be involved because it will encompass us all in our surrounding neighbors. I have been involved with some of the Regional Planning Programs in Winton Woods and would continue to stay involved for the betterment of our community.


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 Tracy Hueber:

For the past 4 yrs. I have been involved with Parks and Public Services with are heavily involved in Recycling. We won recognition for the Village of the most tonnage collected of recyclables (from Hamilton County Environmental Services) along with purchasing in our Park items, i.e. Benches, trashcan and so on from recyclable products. I highly push this for our environment.
