Hyde Park

Cincinnati voters will decide in November whether to overturn a controversial City Council decision related to a planned hotel and housing development on Hyde Park Square.

The Charter Committee, a century-old "good government" organization has had its ups and downs. It may see a resurgence sparked by City Council's Hyde Park Square and "Connected Communities" controversies.

Even if voters revoke the planned development designation, the developers would still own the property and still plan to build there.

The project has significant community opposition, including from the Hyde Park Neighborhood Council, which has hired the Strauss Troy group as legal representation.

Neighbors have voiced concern over plans to develop the square.
