🌱 Council Seeks Stimulus Spending Ideas + Springstein Coming In 2023

The quickest way to get caught up on the most important things happening today in Lakewood.

Good morning, neighbors. It's Wednesday in Lakewood and I'm back in your inbox to get you caught up on all the most important things happening locally. Hope you all have a great day.


First, today's weather:

A thunderstorm in spots. High: 78 Low: 65.


Here are the top three stories today in Lakewood:

  1. Cuyahoga County Council members have sought radically different methods for deciding how to spend millions of stimulus dollars in their districts. Some members are gathering ideas through an open application process, while others are deferring to suggestions from local mayors. The varying methods are a result of the County's controversial decision to set aside $6 million for each of the county's 11 districts. (Cleveland.com)
  2. Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb showed off the West Side Market to Ohio mayors and political leaders on Monday, praising legislators for investing in the historic facility. Bibb toured the market with members of the Ohio Mayors Alliance and state legislators. The Cleveland Mayor thanked state lawmakers for supporting efforts to improve and preserve the market.

  3. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be taking the stage at Cleveland's Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Apr. 5, 2023. Billboard and Pollstar named the group's 2016-2017 tour River Tour 2016′s top global tour. Tickets will go on sale on Jul. 27 at 10:00 a.m. (Cleveland 19)
