COVINGTON, Ky. -- When Cincinnati Magazine compiled its list of the region’s “most powerful business leaders” for its second-annual Cincinnati 300 issue this year, only two elected leaders in the entire region made the Nonprofit & Government section.

Covington Mayor Joe Meyer is one of those two.

The magazine’s editor-in-chief, John Fox, wrote in his column at the beginning of the issue that the thing that struck him most about the 300 women and men on this year’s list was “how people-focused they’ve been. They care about their employees’ safety and well-being … Their humanity and humility is hard to miss.”

Congrats to the Mayor … and we like how Covington’s momentum and its leadership have pushed The Cov into the discussion, so to speak, and are getting the city noticed beyond its borders.
