Mayor Brooks and Fellow Cleveland City Council Members: Several months ago, we discussed upwards of 10 projects designed to alleviate safety and congestion concerns on Paul Huff Parkway. All of the projects hold potential to address many of the concerns we all hear about Paul Huff. I remember we discussed having these projects done in two years from that time. Some of them are in various stages of completion. I recall us making that commitment to the public. Recognizing we have delays with materials and other issues related to Covid, I am asking Manager Fivas and his staff to provide us at the next meeting with a timeline of the design, funding and completion status of each of these projects. I trust we are still anticipating their completion on the previously announced timeline and would like to get an update to that commitment. Councilman Hughes moved to accept Councilman Webb’s request. The motion was seconded by Councilman Cassada; and upon roll call, unanimously passed. Councilman May moved to issue a new Certificate of Compliance to Elxr Wine & Spirits, LLC due to change in the ownership interest of members. The motion was seconded by Councilman Cassada. Councilman Estes asked if staff would review the city ordinance to compare and know where state law supersedes [concerning moving existing locations].
