Description
Cincinnati City Council member Meeka Owens, the Democratic nominee for Hamilton County commissioner, said she is running to address challenges that extend beyond city boundaries, including housing costs, public safety, health and climate impacts. She identified affordability as the county’s biggest issue and said she would support increased housing production, investments in clean energy, careful review of county spending and efforts to expand property tax relief. Owens also called for stronger state support for schools and regional cooperation on issues such as flooding, clean air and water. On potential public spending for Great American Ball Park and other major projects, she said discussions should begin early and include transparency and accountability for taxpayers. Owens described herself as a Cincinnati native, community organizer and results-focused leader who wants to work across political lines on jobs, health care, transportation and strong neighborhoods.
