In an op-ed for the Cincinnati
Enquirer, former Mayor of Covington Chuck Scheper writes that the turn-around Covington experienced during his term would not have been possible without "collaborative leadership and fact-based decision making."
Writes Scheper:
Covington is a city with many diverse assets and opportunities. We have historic neighborhoods and yet we embrace the modern architecture of the Ascent. We have a diverse population and were the first city in our region to adopt a human-rights ordinance. We have old businesses like Motch Jewelers, which has been in operation for 155 years. We have new technology companies like Tier 1 and C-Forward. We have traditional manufacturing companies and an emerging life-science corridor led by Bexion Pharmaceuticals. And we have more public green space than any other city in Northern Kentucky.
When you step back and admire the individual colors that make up our mosaic city, you see a beautiful picture that is Covington. I "Love the Cov," and so do many developers we've been courting.
