Who is running for City Council in Berea in 2024?

Steve Caudill has experience as a chief auxiliary services officer at Eastern Kentucky University.

Steve has served on the Berea City Council for a decade.

Supports recreational developments that benefit both tourism and Berea residents.

“This was a huge collaborative effort, it took our city council, our tourism commission, our builder Andrew Parson,” said Mayor Bruce Fraley. “This is a perfect example of what we can do as a city that brings tourists to town, brings visitors in, but also provides a recreational opportunity for local citizens.”

The bike park is situated on land that was originally part of the city’s industrial park. However, the land wasn’t suitable for industrial development. Since the property was already owned by the citizens of Berea and offered the appropriate landscape for adventure tourism, it was an ideal location for recreational development.

“This is an opportunity for us to show the region that if you build something like this, it won’t just benefit you through tourism, it will also benefit the citizens who live here,” said Steve Caudill, Berea City Councilman.
