The East Walnut Hills Events Committee is looking for volunteers to help organize our community events. The committee plans and organizes several events each year. The needs vary: applying for permits, engaging community stakeholders, picking up and delivering rental equipment, and day of set-up and breakdown. If you’d like to help out, please contact the Events Chairperson, Duke Durfee.
Do you want to know more about the upcoming election in November?
The East Walnut Hills Assembly and the Walnut Hills Area Council will present Candidates’ Night 2019 on Thursday October 10, at approximately 7:15pm at the Bush Recreation Center, 2640 Kemper Ln. All interested individuals are encouraged to attend. On- and off-street parking will be available, and light refreshments will be provided.
Candidates for election to the Cincinnati Board of Education will be presenting. The general terms of the levy renewals for the Cincinnati City School District and for Hamilton County Family Services and Developmental Disabilities will be presented.
City Council voted in August to amend the City’s Charter to repeal an earning tax that has funded SORTA. This proposed amendment to the City’s Charter is on the ballot and will be discussed at Candidates’ Night.
Would you like to see our neighborhood implement a residential parking permit program?
Due to the positive developments in East Walnut Hills, finding available parking spots has become a challenge for many residents, especially those who rely on street parking. A residential parking program should help solve some of these difficulties.
Facts about the program:
The program must be approved by at least 60% of the households in the district. Only one signature per house-hold allowed. You may sign the petition in favor of the program even if you do not intend to purchase a permit, or even if the program will be of little use for you personally (but may improve the quality of life for your neighbors).
Sign in favor now if you think you would like the program in the future.
If supported by the required percentage of households, parking zone signage would be determined after approval by City Council.
Streets being considered for implementation:
Business District:
5pm to 2am restriction
Historical Area South of East McMillan:
7am to 5pm restriction
Permit availability:
The petition will be available during our Assembly Meeting, where neighbors will be able to answer questions about this proposal. If you cannot attend this meeting, please contact us to arrange signing the petition.
