The Cincinnatus Association- The Villages of Daybreak Project

Ed Jackson, CEO of FierroTech and Rick Kimbler, Partner with The Northpointe Group, presented a plan to re-develop Huntington Meadows and revitalize Jordan's Crossing (Swifton Commons) at the November 13 meeting of The Cincinnatus Association. After a Market study was conducted that took into account the needs of the neighboring communities of Bond Hill and Roselawn, a plan was devised to develop the former Huntington Meadows (58 acres) into 300 single family homes. The plan utilizes the property's strong points, its central location as well as its proximity to highway, and the six phase plan will be executed by 5 different development companies. Allen Temple and Tri-Stone Baptist Churches, both with adjoining property to the 58 Acres, have united to insure Minority Inclusion in both the development and other phases of the project through Homeowner Outreach and Education programs.

The Cincinnatus Association - A Stable Integrated Communities Study

Al DeJarnett, Co-Chair of the Community Inclusion Panel, delivered a presentation at the November 13 meeting of The Cincinnatus Association, which described the advantages of living in integrated communities. The study looked at census data to determine the socio-economic status of communities in Hamilton County. After Residents of these communities were interviewed and the Dissimilarity Index was considered a distinction was made, setting 14 communities apart from the 122 in Hamilton Communities. This distinction concluded that these 14 communities, referred to as the gold and silver metal communities (Coryville, Madisonville, Kennedy Heights, etc.), had been integrated and stable for 3 or more census periods (30 years plus). These integrated and stable communities enjoyed a Socioeconomic Index level above that of the average overall Socioeconomic Index of Hamilton County.
