GO Cincinnati

A public/private steering committee will oversee the creation of a comprehensive economic development strategy for Cincinnati and its neighborhoods, Mayor Mark Mallory announced Thursday.

The initiative, called GO Cincinnati, will be co-chaired by City Councilman Chris Bortz and Ellen van der Horst, president of the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber, according to a news release from the city. It will be responsible for overseeing committees that will address job attraction and retention, work-force development and neighborhood revitalization.
