📰 News we're reading

• Football Recap: Strongsville Skates Past Lorain with Ease (maxpreps.com) — After routing Lorain 45-6, Strongsville's football team now turns its attention to a conference matchup against Shaker Heights this Friday at 7 p.m. For Shaker Heights fans, the game offers a chance to see how their team stacks up against a high-scoring Mustangs squad that has dominated several recent opponents at home.
   

• More jobs, housing and walkable communities around transit? That's what Cuyahoga County agencies want (cleveland.com) — A new countywide transit-oriented development partnership has flagged sites in Shaker Heights as prime spots for future walkable, mixed-use projects near bus and rail lines. For local residents, that could eventually mean more housing, jobs, and amenities clustered around transit, as Cuyahoga County and RTA work to streamline zoning and attract developers to these corridors.
