Info | Philip M. "Phil" Heimlich
Formerly a Cincinnati City Councilman. Currently a Hamilton County Commissioner.
Currently serving as one of three Hamilton County Commissioners, Phil Heimlich has had a long distinguished career serving the taxpayers of the Greater Cincinnati area.
Phil graduated with distinction from Stanford University in 1975 and earned a J.D. from the University of Virginia Law School in 1979.
From 1984 � 1993, Phil served as an Assistant Hamilton County Prosecutor, specializing in the criminal prosecution of felony cases.
In November, 1993, Phil was elected to Cincinnati City Council where he was re-elected three times, ending his term in 2001. As a Councilman, Phil earned his deep reputation for protecting both the fiscal and physical security of taxpayers at all costs, standing up for law enforcement, and ensuring good values are not excised from government decision making. Phil�s notable accomplishments include:
� Enacting the city�s first property tax rollback in 50 years and preventing an unvoted property tax increase.
� Introducing managed competition, which could lead to savings of over $30 million per year, by allowing private companies to compete to operate city services.
� Adding 119 additional police officers to the streets of Cincinnati from 1994-1998. Over this time, violent crime was reduced 46 percent.
� Implementing a teen curfew to protect our youth and community. Serious juvenile crime was reduced by 30 percent.
� Enacting a parental responsibility ordinance that holds parents of juvenile offenders accountable for their children�s crimes.
� Enacting laws regulating and zoning sexually oriented businesses such as strip clubs and porn shops, keeping them away from schools, churches, and neighborhoods.
In November, 2002, Phil was elected Hamilton County Commissioner .
In March, 2003, Phil introduced a reform called A.C.T. (Accountability to Taxpayers) under which every County department and every Special Tax Levy will submit to a review by an outside analyst. A.C.T. is projected to save the County over $10 million annually. In November, the Cincinnati Zoo levy will go on the ballot at an amount $300,000 less than the last levy as a direct result of their outside review under A.C.T.
Phil has also worked with Commissioner John Dowlin to cut over $8 million in spending to protect the County from effects of the State of Ohio�s current fiscal crisis.
Phil is married to Rebecca, an Assistant Prosecuting Attorney in the Clermont County Prosecutor�s office. Their first child, Henry Simpson Heimlich, was born on May 26, 2003.
