Every community deserves great leadership, commitment and growth. Leaders who share the same issues, concerns and advocate for growth are important to the residents. Revitalization is amongst us, mistakes are inevitable and change is too. In the City of Cleveland changes are being made daily and there are many opportunities for the residents voice to be heard.
