There is only one shining example of regional governance in Dayton Ohio- it’s our Metroparks system. For years, it was a sleepy organization with nature preserves. Now, it’s an economic development powerhouse, providing the kinds of outdoor activities and places to do things that make Dayton a great place to live.

If you haven’t been to Wegeryzn Gardens, or Cox Arboretum- or heard about the new MOBA mountain bike facility- you aren’t really experiencing what we have to offer in Dayton thanks to this wonderful, cooperative system.

It’s well run, it’s an awesome asset, and it deserves your support. If all of our City ran this well, or was this efficient, we’d have businesses beating a path to Dayton to grow their businesses here.

I’m voting yes on Issue 4, and you should too.
