My name is Michael Mandel. I live in Cheviot Hills (on Bradbury Road) with my wife and two children (a son, age 15 and a daughter, age 13). We have lived in Cheviot for 11 years. My kids both graduated from Overland Avenue Elementary and I have spent countless hours at the Cheviot Hills Recreation Center for their participation in sports there. My primary interest in serving on the board is to work with the board and the community to address the safety of our neighborhood. We have been the victim of one home burglary and one aborted burglary (it looked like no one was home because my car was parked across the street and there was no car in the driveway; the would-be burglars climbed our side fence and entered our backyard. But they ran away when they saw that I was in the house).
