To Inform & Inspire, Provoke & Dispel—Ideas and actions for life in Worthington, Ohio
Ideas, Actions, People, and Commentary in the City of Worthington

Public Forum with Council Member David Robinson—Tuesday, July 22, 2205, 7:00-8:30 p.m., Old Worthington Library, Owl Meeting Room

Amidst the joys of summer, there’s a lot going on in our city—pools, deer, railroads, development, housing, a Comprehensive Plan rewrite, and, soon, an election, and much more—I invite the general public to a Q & A forum I am hosting this coming Tuesday (7/22), in the main meeting room at the Old Worthington Library.

All are welcome—supporters, detractors, and everyone in between.

I put it this way because I positively embrace the differences of opinion in our community, and I believe that discussion and debate are the lifeblood of our governmental system.  And since the online forums too often turn into sinkholes, I thought it would be a good idea for us to gather in person, in the same room, to hear what each other has to say.

I am just one out of seven members of your City Council, but I’ll do my best to provide general information, along with my own perspective.  And if I can’t answer a question at the forum, I’ll follow up.

Hope to see you there.  All are welcome.  I look forward to hearing what you have on your mind.

“An informed and engaged citizenry is the basis of sound public policy.” – Robinson
