On the issues

Pedestrian and cyclist safety

Boerger said a city is only as viable as its walkability. She pointed to a large amount of foot traffic along Dixie Highway and Fort Mitchell's many side streets, and said safe sidewalks, crosswalks and walking routes are key to the city's viability. She called for maintaining sidewalks and visible crosswalks as part of the regular maintenance plan and for regulating speed on Dixie Highway and side streets to contribute to pedestrian safety.

City finances

Boerger said Fort Mitchell has financially benefited from responsible budgets. Drawing on her experience having previously served on council, she said she has seen department heads use grant money and long-range planning for capital replacements within each department. "Responsible spending and budgeting are key for a city's financial viability," Boerger said in her 2022 questionnaire response.

Affordable housing

Boerger called affordable housing "a necessity" and said Fort Mitchell has a very reasonable city tax rate, according to her 2022 response.
