First Mayoral Debate to be held August 13th
From The Cincinnati Herald:
I'm emailing a few questions for this now and I plan to be in attendance.
The Greenwich Tavern in Walnut Hills will be hosting a mayoral debate on Saturday, Aug. 13, at 8:00pm. All mayoral candidates have agreed to participate in the first debate that promises to bring home issues that concern citizens of all backgrounds in Cincinnati.
“It was my idea,” said Mark Yates, co -owner of The Greenwich Tavern.
“Kathy and I were having a conversation about politics and what better place for the future city leaders to go and discuss neighborhoods than Pebbles Corner here in Walnut Hills.”
Yates wants the candidates to step in the heart Walnut Hills and see first hand the people and the issues that are facing the community.
He has secured State Senator Mark Mallory (Dem.), Vice Mayor Alicia Reece (Dem.), Council member David Pepper (Dem.), Charlie Winburn (Rep.), and independent runner Justin Jeffre.
Kathy Y. Wilson will moderate the debate and reporters and editors from major media outlets such as The Cincinnati Herald, The Cincinnati Enquirer, The Cincinnati Post, and Cincinnati Citybeat, will serve as panelists. WDBZ 1230 “The Buzz” will broadcast live from the event.
The debate will present a combination of questions from community leaders, journalists, and emailed questions. The organizers are asking for questions to be emailed to walnuthillsmayordebate@yahoo.com. Yates stated he wanted community input to increase the dialogue in the upcoming race.
“All the candidates have agreed to come and I am looking forward to the turn out,” said Yates.
A pre-debate public reception begins at 6:30pm.
The Greenwich Tavern is located 2442 Gilbert Ave.
in Walnut Hills. For more information contact (513) 221-1151
