If you and your guest would enjoy a 30-minute hard-hat tour of Washington Park, please plan to arrive at 5:00 or 5:30.  We will offer two guided tours at those times, prior to dinner.

A 30-minute tour of the new SCPA facility is scheduled for 7:30, to accommodate the school's tour guide.  Chad's presentation and discussion will conclude by 7:30.

The Cincinnatus Association is pleased to invite and encourage all members to join us at our next dinner meeting:

Networking and cash bar at 5:30, followed by the Queen City Club's outstanding cuisine at 6:15.  There is free parking in the Queen City Club's lot and panel meetings will be on location at their normal times.

After dinner, we will provide Association announcements and introduction of guests, followed by the core of our evening's program presentations.

 

Has Senate Bill 5 "reformed" public employee collective bargaining so as to help balance local government budgets?  Has it instead gone too far and "destroyed" public employees' collective bargaining rights?  Will it save or harm public safety or the education of our children?  Will it end abuses of the current system or itself abuse our public servants?  These and other related questions will be debated at the Association's next meeting.  We hope that our members will gain valuable information helping them to decide how to vote on Issue 2 and how to discuss its significance with other voters.

 

Our speakers will be two well-known Cincinnati lawyers who are eminently qualified to speak on this topic.  Supporting SB5 and Issue 2 will be GARY GREENBERG, Esq., a shareholder in the law firm Denlinger Rosenthal & Greenberg, LPA, whose practice focuses on labor & employment law, representing employers, both public and private sector, including municipalities, county agencies, townships, and a joint vocational school district.  Presenting the other side will beSTEVE LAZARUS, Esq., a principal in the law firm Hardin, Lazarus & Lewis, LLC, who focuses his practice on the representation of public safety employees (law enforcement officers and firefighters) and their unions in contract negotiations, disciplinary proceedings, lay-offs and job abolishments, appeals related to promotional examinations and civil service rules, and litigation.

 

In addition to the SB5 discussion will be member discussion and vote on ASSOCIATION PUBLIC ENDORSEMENTS relating to three other ballot issues: CPS Levy (Issue 32), Indigent Medical Care (Issue 37) and Children's Services (Issue 38).  Please visit the Cincinnatus homepage prior to our meeting to read our Issue summaries on these ballot initiatives.
