Bramble Park Shared-Use Path bid

After first being announced 6 years ago, the shared-use path through Bramble Park is finally out to bid by the city. The specific routing was chosen by Cincinnati Parks to avoid damaging existing mature trees. The incline up the hill will have 5 foot long flat landings, 9 in total, every 30 feet. That is being done to make sure it is still ADA compliant as the rest of the slope will get up to 8.33 degrees.

will function as a spur of the CROWN/Murray Trail, and hopefully the first step in making a formal trail through the Little Duck Creek Nature Preserve.

Upcoming bike infrastructure funding by OKI

On Thursday, OKI's Board of Directors will be voting to approve their allotment of annual Federal funding. There are 7 projects that have specific bike infrastructure as part of them, with 5 of them being shared-use paths. I did not upload the 7th project as it was more money for an already existing project, the replacement for the WHV.

Additionally, they will be awarding 2 grants to Red Bike, one for each side of the river, to replace old stations, and expand into NKY:

>Targeted expansion of stations into emerging redevelopment areas and mixed-use growth districts.

Open House: Erie Avenue & Murray Road Safety Improvements

Open house flyer for Erie Avenue & Murray Road Safety Improvement Project

The city is hosting an open house for a resurfacing project that would also function as an extension of the Murray Tail into East Hyde Park. If you can't make it, they typically post the drawings and layouts on their website after the meeting is over, along with a survey.

The meeting is on Tuesday evening at the Eastside Recreation Center in Oakley.

What would a land value tax mean for Cincinnati residents?

>"Neighborhoods in the lowest two income quintiles would see median tax reductions of approximately 17%, while middle-income neighborhoods would experience reductions of 10-11%," the report says. "Only the highest-income quintile would face a median tax increase, of roughly 11%."

What is consensus voting? Legislator wants to overhaul Ohio’s elections

>“Though I voted in favor of S.B. 63, the problems ranked choice voting sought to address are very real,” Blessing said. “I have introduced S.B. 395 that captures all of the benefits of ranked choice voting with none of its flaws. Weep not for ranked choice voting when we could have this better system known as consensus voting.”

>Under S.B. 395, all candidates for an office would appear on a single primary ballot, regardless of party affiliation. Voters could select up to three candidates, and the top three vote-getters would advance to the general election.

Blessing seems to be coordinating with Better Choices for Ohio
