Restoring Prosperity
The Greater Ohio Policy Center Blog
The non-partisan Greater Ohio Policy Center (GOPC) released its “Questions for Candidates in the 2018 Election.” This document challenges the next governor, other statewide office-seekers, and legislative candidates to articulate their policy positions on a range of quality-of-life and redevelopment issues.
Earlier this month, GOPC was a table sponsor at the Gubernatorial Forum hosted by the The Ohio Association of Regional Councils (OARC). Speaking to a roomful of the state’s top political, business, and civic leaders, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and former Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Richard Cordray shared their campaign platforms related to transportation, infrastructure, job creation, and economic development.
Many Ohioans wish to stay in their homes and neighborhoods where they have lived most of their lives. As people grow older, their ability to drive a car diminishes, and the need for frequent, efficient, and reliable public transportation increases. Known as aging in place, these residents deserve the chance to continue to live in the places they have called home for decades.
