I am Larry Solomon, affectionately known as Mayor Larry.  I have successfully served as your Mayor for eight years now.

The key to being successful as your Mayor is to have a…Solid vision for growth, Good common sense, Listen and serve Union residents and, most importantly, Make solid business decisions.

I am a Conservative.  I am Businessman.  More importantly, I am a Conservative Businessman!  Taking care of city business is that…running the city as a business, with responsible management and solid long-term planning.

When you look at my background (under the Family and Qualifications section of this website), you will see I am uniquely qualified to lead this city into the future.  I hold two Master Degrees…one in Business and one in Public Administration; worked 30 years in Marketing Research at Ashland/Valvoline, Procter & Gamble, and Kimberly Clark, as well as 7 years for the State of Ohio…a solid mixture of Business and Public Sector service.

I am running on my record of doing great things for the City of Union…keeping the ideals of Union top-of-mind, and creating a place our children will want to raise their families.

When we took office, Union was a bedroom community.  I saw the vision that growth was coming…and, we had to be ready for it…by running the city as a larger city.  We are now that larger city, and being a conservative businessman has paid off as your city leader!

We are in the process of building a great city.  Current projects going on include:  1) The Promenade Center with a new Children’s Hospital location being a center-piece of that development.  2) The Grammas Center, which brings more new business opportunities to our city.  3) The Graeter’s/Braxton Center, bringing Graeter’s and Braxton back to Union.

Other Projects Include…The Union Pointe Center, across from Ryle High School.  And, a project to be named on the corner of Mt. Zion Road and U.S. Route 42.

And, most importantly, the new Town Center which is now in the concept phase.  The new Town Center will create a new “gathering place” that our community has wanted for years!

Lastly and this is extremely important…I want to remind you to go out and vote on November 8!  This is an important election coming up…so please vote!  And when you do, I would greatly appreciate you vote for me, Mayor Larry Solomon, to continue our great work in Union.
