Issue 9 would create a park at Lee and Meadowbrook, stopping a $52 million development in Cleveland Heights.
CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio - Cleveland Heights residents have debated what to do with a little more than an acre at the northeast corner of Lee and Meadowbrook.“I guess I could see a development there if there was a public park,” said Ralph Solonitz, a supporter of Issue 9, which would put a park on the land and stop a $52 million planned development for the space, a four-story, 200 unit mixed use residential and retail development.
“There’s certainly nothing wrong with green space and a place for the rain to percolate into the ground,” said Garry Kanter, an Issue 9 supporter. “Do we need more asphalt in this world? I don’t think so.” “It is an issue of progress in the sense that it allows us to maintain our competitive nature against similar communities that are vying for these types of individual projects,” said Osborn. “It allows us to keep moving forward and offer newer housing.”
Supporters worry the issue is confusing since a “no” vote on Issue 9 means “yes” to the development. To others, it’s more simple.The issue appears on the May 3 ballot in Cleveland Heights.
