Mayor council form of government council meeting first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm. Nestled in the hills of Northern Kentucky, just 7 miles south of Cincinnati, our quiet suburb got its start as a farm community in the 1920s. To this day, we’ve maintained our small-town intimacy and security, while providing convenient access to a vibrant metropolis. We’re also home to one of Kentucky’s fastest growing post-secondary institutions, Northern Kentucky University (NKU).
