I'm writing to share my strong support for requiring the release of video footage of police officers using deadly force within seven days of the incident. I understand an Ordinance is under consideration by the full City Council, and urge you to adopt this reform.
Thank you,
Andrea

unfortunately experienced a small fire in May 2022. The property has obviously suffered damage in more than one suite of the complex. Unfortunately the property has not been tended to. The windows were broken out during the time of the fire, yet there has been no follow up by the property owners. None of the windows were boarded up while there are other residents still living in other parts of the building. This is not only a nuisance to the neighborhood, but more importantly it is a health and safety hazard to the other tenants. As a resident in the adjacent neighborhood, we are requesting the council person, Joseph Jones to please look into this matter.
Why not fix Cleveland streets and also give to outlying cities whose streets are used by people going to work in Cleveland?
Why not use some of it for picking up all the trash along the filthy streets/freeways surrounding Cleveland?
Why is it only you handful of people get to decide what gets spent and to what?
