🗳️ Cincinnati needs a city council that puts neighborhoods first. Maria Cunningham's letter urges voters to elect candidates endorsed by the Charter Committee who prioritize community over party politics. She specifically praises council members Jan-Michele Lemon Kearney and Scotty Johnson for opposing controversial projects like the Connected Communities rezoning plan and Hyde Park tower. Cunningham believes a coalition of independent-minded leaders can repeal harmful policies and ensure residents have a voice in city decisions. The November election represents an opportunity to rebuild trust with neighborhoods across Cincinnati.
