City Council approves applications to help with matching funds required for $1.5 million federal grant
Cleveland Heights City Council is looking to make up $375,000 in required matching funds for a federal streetscape improvement grant through state and local grants. Council approved two applications for grants to help fund the Cedar Fairmount Streetscape Improvement Project. The project received a $1.5 million grant from the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency, but the city is required to match the grant with $375,000.

To encourage residents and neighbors to shop locally, some Cleveland Heights merchants are offering deals this Saturday, and the City of Cleveland Heights is providing free parking all weekend.

Small Business Saturday, which is Nov. 24 this year, is “a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for their communities,” the U.S. Small Business Administration explains on its website.

Organizers are discussing how they can put on a safe, successful festival in 2013, and are asking for input from the community.
If the Coventry Street Arts Fair comes back in the summer of 2013, it won't be exactly as residents remember it, said Steve Presser, owner of Big Fun and marketing director for the Coventry Village Special Improvement District. Presser had organized a public meeting for Tuesday, Oct. 16, to discuss ideas for the possible fair but announced the meeting was canceled today. "We’re not going to have it as people remember us having it – the closed street, and traffic shut down to cars. We're going to try to figure out something creatively, maybe incorporate Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Park," Presser said.

This is a lousy plan. Hardly any real bike lanes. In 2013, in CH, *that* close to CWRU, there should be *dedicated* bike lanes. Instead, the regular lanes will be marked to indicate that bikers use them, too! That has a fancy word, "Sharrows". Which means, "shared-lane marking". There *is* actually some worthwhile (pedestrian) stuff in this project, but not *nearly* enough for the 21st century. … more ›
