WARD 3 MONTHLY E-NEWSLETTER: February 2014

Greetings Ward 3 Resident,

This year’s American Lung Association’s Fight for Air Climb Event on March 1st at the Terminal Tower in downtown Cleveland; coincides with the one year anniversary of the passing of my predecessor the late Councilman Don Willey. Don was a friend to many here in Ward 3, including me. I figure this would be a great way to honor his memory and to make a little difference too. If you are interested in supporting Team Willey click here for more information.

Calling all Shadow Creek Apartments, Harbour Light Condominiums, Sunrise Cove Condominiums, Independence Place Condominiums, and Buntingtree Condominiums and any North Royalton Ward 3 residents. On April 3rd I will be hosting a Slice of Ward 3 Event from 5:30pm-7:30pm at the Shadow Creek Party Room located at 11560 Somerset Dr., North Royalton, OH 44133. The purpose of the event is to give residents an opportunity to meet me your City Councilman and fellow neighbors too. Residents will be able to sample FREE food provided by sponsors such as: Vinci’s Pizzeria, Firehouse Sports Bar & Grille, and North Royalton Papa John’s Pizza. Attendees will also enjoy musical entertainment provided by Ward 3’s own Island Jeff. I am especially trying to reach out to residents who live in apartments or condominiums. This slice of Ward 3 residents are often the hardest to engage due to building limitations or property management policies. Hope to see you there.

Have a great weekend!

WARD 3 MONTHLY E-NEWSLETTER: DECEMBER 2013

Greetings Ward 3 Resident,

It is hard to believe today is Christmas Eve and then a few days later it will be New Years Eve. Reflecting on the past year, it has been a humbling and amazing experience serving as your councilman since March. Many of you may not know this, but I track all casework that I do when a resident requests assistance from me regarding various issues within our ward. For 2013, I have assisted over 100 residents with various issues dealing with storm water, abandoned homes, safety, road repair, and more. I have spoken with countless number of residents by phone or e-mail. I have also personally met with over 2,000 residents either by going door to door throughout the ward, attending homeowner/condominium association meetings, my monthly constituent coffees, neighborhood block parties, and various community events. I am excited for what 2014 has in store for our city and Ward 3. There are great things going on here in North Royalton! Starting next year I plan on working to expand the level of constituent service and engagement with residents here in ward 3. In early spring I will announce some of the ways I plan to accomplish that. In addition I have already begun working on addressing some long standing issues within our ward that have not been fully resolved and will work to continue to build upon the progress that has been made this year.
