He outlined a three-pronged platform that addresses a range of issues he believes are important to residents of Athensâ fourth ward â one of the most diverse in town, ranging from East State Streetâs commercial district to the near east side neighborhood and all the way back to the River Gate/River Park apartments.
One of Swankâs top priorities is to restore what he calls âfiscal responsibilityâ to Athens, ensuring that taxpayer dollars arenât spent frivolously in the face of the worst economy since the Great Depression, while enrollment declines at Ohio University, the cityâs economic lifeblood.
