<v Speaker 1>Seven oh six at fifty five kr CD Talk Station,

00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:20.600

00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:22.679
<v Speaker 1>the Dwine State of the State. Yesterday they did a

4
00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 1>poll from Americans for Prosperity. We'll find out what the

5
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 1>poll reflected. That's at the bottom of the aar. In

6
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:27.920
<v Speaker 1>the meantime, I'm happy to welcome back to the fifty

7
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:32.399
<v Speaker 1>five KRC Morning Show Cincinnati City, a city mayor candidate

8
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Corey Bowman running as a Republican in a pretty blue city. Corey,

9
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:38.799
<v Speaker 1>welcome back, man. It's always great talking to you.

10
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Brian. It's awesome to be back. Thank you for having me.

11
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>So, how's things going out there as you are on

12
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the campaign trail meeting people, shaking hands? And your your

13
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:50.079
<v Speaker 1>website so I can tell my listeners Coreybowman dot com

14
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.799
<v Speaker 1>so you can see his seven policy pillars, among other things.

15
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.159
<v Speaker 1>And also up a right hand corner there's a little

16
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.399
<v Speaker 1>donate button. I'm sure he'd appreciate a campaign contribution. Anyway.

17
00:00:58.439 --> 00:00:59.640
<v Speaker 1>How's it going before we get into some of the

18
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>specific topics this morning, Cory.

19
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.239
<v Speaker 2>It's going great. And you know I've told people that,

20
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, when we first got into this. I thought

21
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I was just going to the slaughterhouse and it was

22
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:12.760
<v Speaker 2>just going to be me and about. Every day I

23
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:15.519
<v Speaker 2>get a reason to get more encourage on this campaign

24
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.159
<v Speaker 2>trail and really just get more motivated to know that

25
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:20.640
<v Speaker 2>there's a chance to get this thing.

26
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's wonderful to hear. And you're getting support from

27
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the Hamilton County Republican Party, I hope.

28
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah. The chairman Russell and Hampson County has been

29
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.200
<v Speaker 2>very helpful and very time throughout the whole process, especially

30
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.439
<v Speaker 2>for somebody that has really never gone into a race

31
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 2>like this, and so I'm very appreciative.

32
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:43.519
<v Speaker 1>Of Well, we live in rather unusual times, and of course,

33
00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:46.920
<v Speaker 1>obviously the policies and platforms of the Democrat Party, who

34
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.280
<v Speaker 1>has run the City of Cincinnata now for Cincinnati Now

35
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.159
<v Speaker 1>for the last several decades, don't seem to really care

36
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>about stuff they've already have that's on their plate to

37
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 1>take care of roads and infrastructure, and I know a

38
00:01:57.920 --> 00:01:59.439
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are really upset about that, and that

39
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>seems to me one thing if we focused on would

40
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:05.599
<v Speaker 1>make the city a more attractive magnet for people who

41
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>otherwise wouldn't consider moving into the city. I mean, we

42
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>got some problems on our hands in the city.

43
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 2>Corey. No, absolutely, And if you look at our points

44
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.719
<v Speaker 2>on our website in the whenever we were first getting

45
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:20.960
<v Speaker 2>the signatures for our petition, I was really coning in

46
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 2>on where the key policies that we need to focus

47
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 2>on and really just don't get distracted by anything. And

48
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.039
<v Speaker 2>as I looked at it, number one is money management.

49
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Money management, where's the money going? Are you going to

50
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:36.599
<v Speaker 2>prioritize the budget to where it benefits the residents of Cincinnati?

51
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.240
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think there's a greater example where that

52
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:42.439
<v Speaker 2>mismanagement of funds is than in our infrastructure and in

53
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:43.159
<v Speaker 2>our roads.

54
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Indeed, I couldn't agree with you more on that. And

55
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:48.080
<v Speaker 1>let's just pivot over to an allocation of money that

56
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:50.719
<v Speaker 1>was just announced the other day for whatever I guess,

57
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>they quote unquote found like one point three million dollars.

58
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 1>And so there were a bunch of hands reaching out

59
00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:58.319
<v Speaker 1>to try to get into the cookie guard, a lot

60
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:01.719
<v Speaker 1>of non governmental organizations to typically get some funding as

61
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>directed by the mayor and council. They didn't get it,

62
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:10.120
<v Speaker 1>but what did get it three hundred thousand dollars anyway,

63
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>went for a skate park, and then the rest of

64
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>it went for the al or acquisition of two more

65
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.919
<v Speaker 1>dump trucks to help deal with the behind the eight

66
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>ball equipment that is used for snow removal. We found

67
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 1>ourselves in a precarious position with the last snowfall, and

68
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.439
<v Speaker 1>so we learned that twenty percent of the equipment was inoperable.

69
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>So buying two dump trucks and three hundred thousand for

70
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:34.479
<v Speaker 1>a skate park. Your comments and reflections on the skate park,

71
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>what would you have done.

72
00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Well? I use the example of in your own personal funds, right,

73
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:42.599
<v Speaker 2>because a lot of people are asking for things like

74
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 2>not just a skate park, but you are we going

75
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 2>to have a new arena in the city, Are we

76
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:48.759
<v Speaker 2>going to do this? Are we going to do that?

77
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.520
<v Speaker 2>And the problem is is that we have a personal

78
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 2>budget that's completely out of control. We have no clue

79
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.520
<v Speaker 2>where we are. Necessarily, if we do, then we're not

80
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.240
<v Speaker 2>using it properly. So it's we have to have a

81
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 2>good foundation in our budget of knowing what takes priority.

82
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.039
<v Speaker 2>The fact that you're buying dumb trucks and stuff just

83
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:10.000
<v Speaker 2>shows me that this administration and the council is really

84
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:14.280
<v Speaker 2>being reactionary instead of proactive. And I think that's the

85
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:16.800
<v Speaker 2>key thing with your finances, is that you have to

86
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 2>be proactive on those just practical issues, you know, the

87
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:25.000
<v Speaker 2>snow removal, the dumb trucks, the public services, the potholes.

88
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.720
<v Speaker 2>We shouldn't be patching up potholes at a rapid pace

89
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:31.839
<v Speaker 2>right now because that's reactionary. These things should have been

90
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:34.720
<v Speaker 2>prevented months or years ago.

91
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, and my understanding is there an obligation to take

92
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:42.000
<v Speaker 1>care of a certain number of road miles every year,

93
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:45.079
<v Speaker 1>and that they have been behind in doing that for

94
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:47.439
<v Speaker 1>years and years and years, which of course compounds the

95
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 1>problem and causes this reactionary allocation resources.

96
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:53.439
<v Speaker 3>No.

97
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, and that's the thing I kept feeling is that

98
00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 2>we have to switch from being reactionary to proactive on things.

99
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 2>We have to be able to plan ahead, we have

100
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.920
<v Speaker 2>to be able to see the future, and it's actually

101
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.399
<v Speaker 2>very hard to do that when you're being distracted by

102
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 2>other things that shouldn't take precedence. I'm not saying that

103
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 2>a skate parks wouldn't be beneficial to that certain aspect

104
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 2>of that community. I'm saying it doesn't make sense when

105
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.439
<v Speaker 2>you see the rest of these areas and shambles that see.

106
00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:26.519
<v Speaker 1>And that's where I go, don't build bright and shiny

107
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.319
<v Speaker 1>new objects and get your photo ops in when you

108
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 1>have things around you that are supposed to be taken

109
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.600
<v Speaker 1>care of that you've ignored for a long time, like

110
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:37.839
<v Speaker 1>for example, being proactive and forward thinking. Did they do

111
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.639
<v Speaker 1>a budget analysis to find out how much upkeep and

112
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.199
<v Speaker 1>maintenance that skate park is going to require? Because you

113
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:46.519
<v Speaker 1>know certain elements that are going to deteriorate, what's it

114
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.279
<v Speaker 1>going to cost going forward? This isn't just a static,

115
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.560
<v Speaker 1>one time cost when you build something like that, It

116
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.439
<v Speaker 1>comes with future needs and obligations.

117
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:59.639
<v Speaker 2>No, absolutely, And that's with a lot of these projects.

118
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:02.079
<v Speaker 2>I think a lot of times when these projects, like

119
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 2>you said, that provide photo ops or they just look

120
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:08.439
<v Speaker 2>good on paper, they don't realize the maintenance that's going

121
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:11.160
<v Speaker 2>to take, or you're just not thinking ahead, and then

122
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:13.759
<v Speaker 2>that just puts you further further in the whole of

123
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:15.560
<v Speaker 2>what you really need to focus on.

124
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:21.079
<v Speaker 1>Indeed, and I let's see here, well the one of

125
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.480
<v Speaker 1>the other elements of your platform. And I had to

126
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.079
<v Speaker 1>bring this up because I ran into some rather frightening

127
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:28.600
<v Speaker 1>statistics that I had in front of me for this

128
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>morning's morning show. You talk about increased safety as one

129
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:36.120
<v Speaker 1>of your platforms policy Platform number five, Safety of the

130
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:41.079
<v Speaker 1>city residents. It's extraordinarily important. And as I look at

131
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:45.519
<v Speaker 1>these statistics and this is it's kind of like a

132
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>buried reality because I haven't read it, but we rank

133
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.800
<v Speaker 1>in terms of homicides per capita. We are number twelve

134
00:06:53.959 --> 00:07:01.759
<v Speaker 1>in the country. Your reaction, Cory.

135
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:06.360
<v Speaker 2>No, I think that what was funny is that we

136
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:10.720
<v Speaker 2>had our kickoff of last week or two weeks ago actually,

137
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:13.360
<v Speaker 2>and whenever we had our kickoff that same week, their

138
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.959
<v Speaker 2>aftab had his kickoff, and they were running off of

139
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:20.160
<v Speaker 2>a platform of lower crime and things that had benefited

140
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:23.519
<v Speaker 2>the community. And I'm sitting there like, Bro, you know,

141
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:26.639
<v Speaker 2>if you're going to pin is is that people that

142
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:30.040
<v Speaker 2>live in the city, people that are experiencing these crime

143
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 2>rates and these gunshots every night, and these things that

144
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:36.040
<v Speaker 2>are happening, they're not going to look at satistic or

145
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:40.399
<v Speaker 2>the people are what a certain administration wants to say

146
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:42.319
<v Speaker 2>this happening. They're going to see it for what it

147
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:46.399
<v Speaker 2>actually is. And so it's very frustrating when you see

148
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:48.959
<v Speaker 2>the crime rates up in certain areas when you see

149
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:52.480
<v Speaker 2>this happening. And so when we talk about increased safety,

150
00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:57.639
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about getting behind the local law enforcement, getting

151
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:03.639
<v Speaker 2>behind the firefighters, not clementing their key roles with programs

152
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>like three to one one and other comprehensive violence reduction

153
00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:11.920
<v Speaker 2>agencies or whatever that might be. We've got to back

154
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:16.639
<v Speaker 2>what works, which is our police department. Now, I've talked

155
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.279
<v Speaker 2>with police department, and I've talked with police officers that

156
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:24.560
<v Speaker 2>have been in for over a decade in the CPD,

157
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.560
<v Speaker 2>and what they say is that we have to find

158
00:08:27.600 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 2>that balance between being that protecting and that force of

159
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.240
<v Speaker 2>law in the city, but also they have to be

160
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:40.240
<v Speaker 2>involved in the community. You have to have that community's trust.

161
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.080
<v Speaker 2>It's very hard to have the trust of the community

162
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:47.039
<v Speaker 2>when there's another agency that's like three to one one

163
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:50.879
<v Speaker 2>that's basically answering other calls. We need to fully back

164
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:54.080
<v Speaker 2>the police department and our fire department in ways that

165
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:55.639
<v Speaker 2>really hasn't been seen in.

166
00:08:55.559 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 1>The past, and be outspoken in support of the city

167
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:02.639
<v Speaker 1>and Saints Police depart Our public elected officials, council members,

168
00:09:02.639 --> 00:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>and the mayor never rise to the challenge of saying

169
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.039
<v Speaker 1>out loud that we need to support the police need

170
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:09.960
<v Speaker 1>to talk about them in a positive way. We need

171
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:12.960
<v Speaker 1>to keep them in the neighborhoods. And again, like you said,

172
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.360
<v Speaker 1>get the police in the neighborhoods and establish a relationship

173
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:19.279
<v Speaker 1>that proves that they are there to protect the citizenry,

174
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:23.639
<v Speaker 1>not this evil, racist force that so many people try

175
00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:27.919
<v Speaker 1>to characterize them as, which by not saying anything, suggests

176
00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 1>that the elected officials share that belief, and I think

177
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>many of them may very well do it. Let's pause,

178
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.600
<v Speaker 1>We'll bring Corey back talk about whether or not there's

179
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.600
<v Speaker 1>going to be a debate and his fundraiser that's coming

180
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:39.159
<v Speaker 1>up on April eighth, and maybe some of his other

181
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:44.519
<v Speaker 1>ideas again, Corybowman dot com and award for Affordable Imaging

182
00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Services because you know, imaging can be affordable within the

183
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 1>ability of you to be able to pay for an image.

184
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Hospital imaging departments not the place to go if you

185
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>want affordability, if you want bells and whistles and sculptures

186
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:00.600
<v Speaker 1>and water features and massive overhead. That's why little imaging

187
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:03.039
<v Speaker 1>departments is charged so much. Like an echo cardiogram could

188
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:05.240
<v Speaker 1>set you back thirty five hundred dollars or more. You

189
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:08.080
<v Speaker 1>may have a separate charge for the Board Certified Radiologists report,

190
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:11.440
<v Speaker 1>which your physician will need. At Affordable Imaging Services, an

191
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:15.960
<v Speaker 1>echo cardiogram only five hundred dollars with no enhancement eight

192
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars with an enhancement. It comes with the Board

193
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Certified Radiologists report. And also they can get you right in.

194
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to wait three weeks or a month,

195
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.799
<v Speaker 1>which many times happens in the hospital. Just call them

196
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:29.600
<v Speaker 1>up and get right in. Expect low overhead, but the

197
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.320
<v Speaker 1>same equipment that hospitals use with medical professionals who've been

198
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.480
<v Speaker 1>doing this for decades. MRIs don't pay five thousand or

199
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:38.679
<v Speaker 1>four thousand. You pay a lolo price of four hundred

200
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:40.799
<v Speaker 1>and ninety five dollars for an MRI. See T scan

201

236
00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:28.559
<v Speaker 1>you know whether or not after a Pervoll might agree

237
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.720
<v Speaker 1>to a debate? Has that been discussed? Have you reached

238
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:33.639
<v Speaker 1>out to him about doing something like that? And even

239
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:37.480
<v Speaker 1>are you interested in debating mayor Afterab Purvoll?

240
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.080
<v Speaker 2>There is talk about it that I've heard. There's no

241
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:44.600
<v Speaker 2>confirmation as of right now, but yeah, if mayor Aftab

242
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 2>would agree to debate, then I think that that would

243
00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>be good.

244
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.519
<v Speaker 1>I do as well. And fundraiser coming up, Speaking of

245
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.840
<v Speaker 1>campaign contributions and donations. Fundraiser, I understand it's taking place

246
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:00.000
<v Speaker 1>April eighth. What are the details on that one, Corey?

247
00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so we've just announced three events. Well, they'll be

248
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:08.039
<v Speaker 2>on our website by today. But specifically, what you're talking

249
00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:10.679
<v Speaker 2>about is where at Tuesday, April eighth, we're going to

250
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>be a Price Sill Chili and that's going to be

251
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:17.279
<v Speaker 2>from five to seven pm and it's all all is welcome,

252
00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:21.120
<v Speaker 2>and Brian, I would like to extend a personal invitation

253
00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:23.120
<v Speaker 2>to you if you could be there as well, that

254
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:23.879
<v Speaker 2>would be amazing.

255
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:26.080
<v Speaker 1>If my schedule allows for it, I will be happy

256
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:29.320
<v Speaker 1>to be there. Love Price sal Chili. Really excellent location

257
00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:31.440
<v Speaker 1>in venue. Usually a lot of people show up for those.

258
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:36.200
<v Speaker 1>I presume Westside Jim Kiefer will be there. Yeah, yeah,

259
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.399
<v Speaker 1>I think he's got an apartment there somewhere. Edie. Anyhow,

260
00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:45.759
<v Speaker 1>you your your your proposal regarding practical housing. I know

261
00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:48.399
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of screaming and yelling and the connected

262
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:51.960
<v Speaker 1>communities has been talked about, and what's your take on

263
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:55.279
<v Speaker 1>housing in the city of Cincinnati And as a mechanism

264
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:57.600
<v Speaker 1>to get more people to want to live there. It

265
00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:02.960
<v Speaker 1>seemed to have worked when they read when they over

266
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the Rhine area. I know a lot of urban hipsters

267
00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:07.639
<v Speaker 1>moved in there. That worked, but then people turned around

268
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:10.559
<v Speaker 1>and started saying, well, I can no longer afford to

269
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:12.159
<v Speaker 1>live in the area where I used to live. So

270
00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>it always comes with detractors when you invested in any

271
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.960
<v Speaker 1>given neighborhood. But what's your plan to create some sort

272
00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:19.399
<v Speaker 1>of practical approach to housing.

273
00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think one of the things that you have

274
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:26.720
<v Speaker 2>to hone in on is one of Cincinnati's best resources

275
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:31.360
<v Speaker 2>is our local small businesses and our developers. There's a

276
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.320
<v Speaker 2>lot of developers, a lot of people that are invested

277
00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:36.919
<v Speaker 2>in the city, that loved the city, that grew up here,

278
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.320
<v Speaker 2>or they're from here. They call it their home that

279
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:42.840
<v Speaker 2>they're able to flip one or two properties at a time.

280
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:47.080
<v Speaker 2>But when you have an overall plan, let's say, or

281
00:14:47.120 --> 00:14:49.559
<v Speaker 2>a vision that the city has for an area, and

282
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.159
<v Speaker 2>it's only going to be done by one big time developer,

283
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:54.879
<v Speaker 2>that's really what you're seeing with these connected communities is

284
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:58.120
<v Speaker 2>that you're not allowing people in the community to do it.

285
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.039
<v Speaker 2>You're actually just bypassing. I say, no, this is what

286
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:04.639
<v Speaker 2>we see for the community. And then in these policies,

287
00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:07.159
<v Speaker 2>it's a trojan horse for a lot of things that

288
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:09.759
<v Speaker 2>have failed in the past and other communities in the city.

289
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, and I know one of the hurdles to you

290
00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:14.840
<v Speaker 1>doing any kind of development, small or large. We have

291
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:18.559
<v Speaker 1>an overburden of regulations in the city.

292
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.759
<v Speaker 2>Yes, absolutely, And I witnessed that firsthand, you know, as

293
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:26.759
<v Speaker 2>a business owner in the West End. I remember the

294
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.399
<v Speaker 2>year that we went to the Super Bowl with the Bengals,

295
00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:33.879
<v Speaker 2>and that the year after that, it was nothing short

296
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:36.879
<v Speaker 2>of like crazy in a lot of these streets in

297
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:39.960
<v Speaker 2>the West End, specifically where I was from. Is that

298
00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:43.440
<v Speaker 2>there was developers and investors that were lining up the

299
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:47.360
<v Speaker 2>streets ready to pour into this city. And the way

300
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:49.519
<v Speaker 2>that you saw, you're like, man, this place is gonna

301
00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:53.720
<v Speaker 2>blow up into in two years time. Max. There's gonna

302
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.399
<v Speaker 2>be so much development, there's gonna be so much housing available,

303
00:15:56.399 --> 00:15:59.039
<v Speaker 2>there's gonna be so much resources available. This is amazing.

304
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:01.799
<v Speaker 2>Two years later, you just realize there's a kink in

305
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:04.000
<v Speaker 2>the hose. What is it. Well, it has to do

306
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.519
<v Speaker 2>with regulation. It has to do with zoning that is

307
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:11.559
<v Speaker 2>just not practical to the area. When you've got an

308
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:16.720
<v Speaker 2>area that's over eighty percent affordable housing or government subsidized housing,

309
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:19.480
<v Speaker 2>and then you're trying to put more of that in

310
00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:23.000
<v Speaker 2>that community instead of just allowing businesses to thrive and

311
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:28.320
<v Speaker 2>people to have market rate or middle income apartments and

312
00:16:28.399 --> 00:16:32.360
<v Speaker 2>condos and townhomes. This is just something that really hinders

313
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:34.200
<v Speaker 2>the growth of all these communities.

314
00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it concentrates poverty in certain areas which prevents them

315
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.399
<v Speaker 1>from economic development. Yeah.

316
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, and that honestly is probably one of the biggest

317
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:47.200
<v Speaker 2>factors of this campaign. With the money management, you're starting

318
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:50.840
<v Speaker 2>to see that just certain funds need to go certain

319
00:16:50.840 --> 00:16:54.159
<v Speaker 2>places and be prioritized. But then on top of that,

320
00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:56.840
<v Speaker 2>we have to have a practical housing approach because it

321
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:59.039
<v Speaker 2>is an issue. You know, when people say that there's

322
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:02.480
<v Speaker 2>a housing crisis, you've got to realize that there's a disparity.

323
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:06.000
<v Speaker 2>There's the very low income housing and then there's a

324
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:09.759
<v Speaker 2>very high income housing. But for us, in our coffee shop,

325
00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:13.240
<v Speaker 2>there's several individuals that work in the city and they're

326
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:15.960
<v Speaker 2>able to afford a great price in our apartment, in

327
00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:18.319
<v Speaker 2>the apartments that are above the building. We don't own

328
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:20.640
<v Speaker 2>the building itself, but we're able to pay a market

329
00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:23.279
<v Speaker 2>rate for our business as well, and it's helped the

330
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:28.160
<v Speaker 2>community thrive. But there's a shortage of available units like

331
00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:31.400
<v Speaker 2>that unless you have you know, if you play by

332
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:33.079
<v Speaker 2>the rules with the red tape of you've got to

333
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:34.799
<v Speaker 2>put this type of business here, and you've got to

334
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:38.160
<v Speaker 2>put this type of housing here, and really that shouldn't

335
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:38.720
<v Speaker 2>be the case.

336
00:17:39.400 --> 00:17:42.200
