2001-2002 Approved All Funds Biennial Budget I About the CoverAbout Cover Front Cover: The Tyler-Davidson Fountain The Tyler-Davidson Fountain, affectionately known as “the People’s Fountain,” after being restored, was rededicated “TO THE PEOPLE OF CINCINNATI” in May 2000. Throughout the decades, Cincinnatians have gathered at the fountain for public ceremonies, holidays, events, rallies, and the special celebrations that give community life its greatest meaning. Cincinnati philanthropist Henry Probasco commissioned the fountain based on the design of a young German sculptor named August von Kieling. The design depicted people in everyday pursuits enjoying the many uses and benefits of water. The fountain, crafted of bronze and porphyry stone, was first dedicated on October 6, 1871 on Probasco Place – later renamed Fountain Square. [Photography: City Manager’s Office.] Back Cover: Styler Davidsown Sow-tain The Big Pig Gig, which kicked-off on Fountain Square and ran from February through September 2000, was a collaborative effort of schools, businesses, non-profit organizations and area artists to unify Cincinnati’s art community and celebrate the City’s “Porkopolis” heritage. Over 400 fiberglass pigs were sponsored and later auctioned off to raise money for ArtWorks – an arts based employment and job-training program for youth in Greater Cincinnati. The Styler Davidsown Sow-tain made its debut in The Big Pig Gig in June, 2000. It bears an uncanny resemblance to the original fountain, complete with bronze coloring and water spraying from the top.

Heimlich Alicia Reece James R. Tarbell City Administration John F. Shirey, City Manager Timothy H. Riordan, Finance Director William E. Moller, Assistant Finance Director Brian Ashford, Budget and Evaluation Manager Government Finance Officers Association Award The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented an Award for Distinguished Budget Presentation to the City of Cincinnati for its biennium budget beginning January 1, 1999. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan and as a communications medium. The award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current biennial budget continues to conform to program requirements, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another award. Introduction he City of Cincinnati’s 2001/2002 Biennial Budget document is designed to help the T residents of Cincinnati and the general public to better understand both the City’s budget process and its end product, the City’s 2001/2002 Biennial Budget. The Budget is divided into seven parts. • Part I presents the highlights of the City’s Budget. • Part II presents the basics on how the Budget was developed including sections on the sources and uses of funds and the various policies that shaped the budget. • Part III presents the performance measures that departments report on and are systematically evaluated upon. • Part IV presents financial summaries of the appropriated funds - Operating, Capital and Consolidated Plan. • Part V presents budgetary data as it relates to the various City departments charged with carrying out the budgetary objectives established by the City Council. • Part VI primarily presents an economic and demographic profile of the City of Cincinnati. • Part VII presents supplemental information in several appendices, including a glossary which may help the reader to better understand the document and the terms contained therein. This Budget is the City’s financial plan for the 2001/2002 biennium. Because it determines the level of City services and the way in which these services will be funded, it often becomes a focal point for public discussion. Many of the key decisions regarding the way the City operates are made through the creation of the Budget. Understanding the Budget is a prerequisite for having an impact on City government. Therefore, in addition to the highlights contained in Part I, it is recommended that the Budget Development section in Part II Budget Basics be read to enhance the budget reader’s benefit from this document. ii Table of Contents Note: Text links are highlighted in blue.

A thesis submitted to Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF COMMUNITY PLANNING In the School of Planning of the College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning May 2006 By Frederik Spittael Master of Architecture, WENK St-Lucas Gent, 2004 Bachelor of Architecture, WENK St-Lucas Gent, 2001 Thesis Committee: Chair: Mahyar Arefi, Ph.D. Member: Menelaos Triantafillou, MLA Reader: Des Bracey, ESQ Abstract Planners have not fully recognized the importance of place. Because place is elusive and does not fit into planners’ utilitarian mode of thought, a concern with place is often dismissed as irrelevant. In spite of this, almost everything planners do is related to place. This is especially true for urban designers. The goal of this thesis is to broaden urban designers’ understanding of place in three steps. First, identify and analyze the key aspects of place in an operational framework. Second, link the framework to urban design. Third, apply the framework to a case study (Fountain Square Cincinnati, OH). The framework combined with the case study indicates urban designers need to overcome the illusion they can design place and have to start working on design strategies that incorporate the vital components of place. Only then will they be able to give place a vital injection instead of a mere facelift.

Architecture, University of Cincinnati, 2001 Committee Chair: Michael McInturf Barry Stedman Abstract Today’s economy is based on consumers who desire services and goods to be encapsulated in a package of a total experience; all facets of the business must be designed to provide experiences to the consumer. The proposition in this thesis is that this economy requires experiences that include the idea of continually providing something new integrated with elements that are familiar. Permanence and agility respond to the familiarity and newness that businesses seek, while transforming the space that the businesses can use.

  • Sos Art 2013
    2013 ART SOS An Art show and event of creative expressions for peace and justice: art, poetry, music, performances, movies, debates at The Art Academy of Cincinnati 1212 Jackson St, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202 May 31 - June 9, 2013 SOS ART annual art show and event of sociopolitical expressions for peace and justice was held for the eleventh consecutive year at the Art Academy of Cincinnati, downtown Cincinnati, from May 31 to June 9, 2013. This year again hundreds of visual artists, poets, musicians and performers added their voice to the event. The art show included like in previous years artworks by individual artists as well as by members of various local groups and by children, all grades, from local schools and after-school programs. The children's added voices broadened the dialogue and in many instances pointed to the immediacy and poignancy of the problems our society faces. Through the children, schools and parents became part of SOS ART. The issues addressed by artists this year were quite broad covering all aspects of peace and social justice; most were statements about our society, our city, our world, and how to make them better. Again in 2013, SOS ART achieved its goals not only by giving artists a venue to express themselves and be heard, but also by providing them and the viewers an opportunity to exchange, challenge, educate, strength- en their own voices, and break their isolation by building a community of sharing and trusting individuals. The SOS ART event started by introductory remarks on the role of art as a tool for social justice by Dan La Botz, historian, teacher, writer and activist, and included during the 10 day-event movies, performances, poetry readings, panel discussions, etc., all geared toward peace and justice, pointing to what hinders them, and also to what promotes them.
