One thought on “As Zionsville’s next mayor, John Stehr aims to ‘lower the temperature’

  1. I supported Stehr in the primary, but I’m hoping for something a bit more ambitious from his term than merely avoiding controversy. That is a low bar. Carmel looms large, and the bike trails stop the second you enter Zionsville. Would like to see a smarter approach to the growth of Zionsville, keeping its own identity while drawing some lessons from Carmel/Fishers.
