There are many reasons to support the plan to bring streetcars back to Cincinnati, such as renewed development and financial investment in downtown, reduced crime, increased visitorship, environmental health, and so on. A good introduction to the proposal is in this whitepaper produced by the UC Economics Center (PDF).
Comparatively, there are relatively few reasons not to support it, with the primary ones being ignorance of the facts combined with fear of change.
Hopefully, if the matter does come to a vote, concerned citizens will educate themselves before casting their ballots.
