Kristina Soltys
Biography
I am running for Covington City Council to combine the great history that we have as a city and to carefully plan and prepare for the growth that our town is experiencing. As a wife, mother and business owner I am excited to expand my relationships with the community and to serve as an advocate for those who need it most.
Having lived in Covington for almost 14 years, I am eager to keep our city a place we can all call home and protect it against decisions that are not conducive to our families, homes and businesses. With the support of our elected council, we deserve the opportunity to develop to our full potential!
