Today we’re continuing our local election series with Dr. Coutanya Coombs, Westerville’s Vice-Mayor and City Councilmember who’s running for re-election this fall.

Coutanya is a mom and community builder with a passion for bringing people together across Westerville. In this episode, we talk about the impact she’s had in her first term and her vision moving forward - everything from walkability and transit, to supporting families, to keeping our community safe. She gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to lead locally and what she hopes residents will be able to point to at the end of her next term.

My goal with this series is to make local elections more accessible for you, the voters.
