BAY VILLAGE, Ohio The mayors of Bay Village and Rocky River are willing to get their feet wet when it comes to Cuyahoga County’s Lakefront Public Access Plan, which would span the Lake Erie shoreline from Euclid to Bay Village.
Bay Village Mayor Paul Koomar is curious as to how the county plan might line up with the city’s own lakefront master plan. And Rocky River Mayor Pam Bobst notes that any plan would need buy-in from the many private owners of lakefront property.
North Royalton applies for $50,000 grant to help pay for town-center improvement study Bob Sandrick, cleveland.com
NORTH ROYALTON, Ohio City officials have applied for a $50,000 grant that would help pay for a town-center improvement study.
The money would come from the Transportation for Livable Communities Initiative, which helps local communities improve transportation and make better use of land. The grant program is administered by the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency.
Tom Jordan, the city’s director of community development, said the town center study will be separate from the municipal master plan review scheduled for this year.
“The master plan will deal with the zoning aspects of the city and town center district,” Jordan told cleveland.com. “The town center study will deal with the physical aspect, in term of roads and infrastructure, and how to make them pedestrian-friendly and more attractive to residents and visitors.”
