City Update
Route 82 Widening Project Update
Work continues on widening of Route 82 between W. 130th Street and York Road. All traffic has been shifted to the north side of the road to allow construction of the underground utilities on the south side to occur. Work is occurring at the east end of the project between Spruce Run Drive and the City Service Center.  Work will continue all winter to prepare for earthwork and pavement in the late Spring/early Summer 2019 for this section.  Also beware of speed limit changes from 35mph to 25mph as well. The Cuyahoga County Public Works Department is responsible for construction of this project.  Any questions should be directed to their field office in North Royalton at 440-628-9229. Read More.

Community Service Club Open House
Last year Council President Larry Antoskiewicz and I conducted a survey to help the city’s service clubs who are facing a decline in membership. Results indicated many residents are simply unfamiliar with the service clubs and what they do but would be willing to join if they knew more. Based off the survey results we want to help highlight these great community groups and boost membership we have organized the first-ever open house showcasing the various organizations all under one roof to offer residents more insight. The open house will be hosted from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 2 at the North Royalton High School Cafeteria 1. Pizza and refreshments will be provided. Each club will have a table and representatives on hand featuring information on their club, what it does, and how to help. Read More.

Ward 3 Recycling Tip of the Month
What Do I Do With Shredded Paper? Shredded paper should not be placed in your curbside recycling. The pieces are too small to be sorted properly at the recycling facility and will end up in the trash. Instead, ensure they are recycled by placing them in paper bags and recycling at a Paper Retriever or River Valley drop off bin. Click Here to learn more.

Ward 3 E-Newsletter: January 2019

Greetings Ward 3 Resident,
Happy New Year! 2019 is off to a very busy start here in city government with much to report below. Before I get into more details I just wanted to share with you the following announcement:
Devoted to Continuing to Serve Ward 3
On January 3rd I pulled my petitions from the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections to seek a fourth elected term on the North Royalton City Council. I want to continue my dedicated service to you my residents and provide trusted veteran leadership for the community on Council. I know there have been some rumors about me possibly running for Mayor or Council President the last few months I like to address. Serving as Mayor or Council President of North Royalton is something I definitely want to do in the near future and would be an honor. Seeking higher local elected office would allow me to help so many more residents and give me the ability to make an even greater difference for my home town. I appreciate all of you who have been urging me to run. However after meeting with my family over the holidays, some personal prayer, and self-reflection I am committed to continuing my service to you my residents as the Ward 3 Councilman. At this point in my life since my young family has grown recently with the addition of my youngest son Derek, my dedication to working to complete some unfinished projects/issues in our ward, and ensuring your voices are heard on Council remain my continued number one priority. Just not the right time yet. However I will reassess again in a few years. As a US Army Veteran service is something that is in my DNA. I truly love what I do! I also think 2020 will be a challenging transition year for our city with a new Mayor, Council President, and majority of Council. As a leader I believe my proven experience, dedication to service and leadership will be an asset to our community during this time! As I a leader I plan to step up to the challenge by hopefully being selected to serve as Council Pro Tem and help mentor the new members of Council with my experience, so together we all can provide great service to our community. The Council Pro Tem position fills in for the Council President when they are absent and is voted on by the new council once they are seated in 2020. Read More. Over the next several months I will be going door to door throughout our entire ward to meet with residents. I look forward to hearing what concerns or suggestions you may have regarding our ward and city’s future to come. See you soon!
Have a great Weekend!
Dan Langshaw

Council Update

Highlights from Council Meetings
Some highlights from the Council Meetings for the month of December. Council passed Resolution 18-124 a resolution strongly urging the Ohio General Assembly to pass Senate Bill 17 and restore back local government funding to municipalities throughout Ohio. Council also approved Ordinance 18-126 approving the Mayor’s appointment of Mark Smith to serve as the new Wastewater Superintendent for the City of North Royalton. Read More.

Council approved Ordinance 18-138 authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement with Senior Transportation Connection.

2019 Budget Update
City Council has recently approved the 2019 City Budget. The budget is extremely conservative and solid balanced budget. While dealing with an estimated $900,000 in additional state funding cuts and an economic forecast of a 0.19% decrease in income tax revenue for 2019. As such I do plan to travel to Columbus in the next few months to testify before the Ohio General Assembly to urge them to restore local government funding cuts and invest more funding into repairing our aging infrastructure as well with the next biennium State Budget.

Ward 3 Economic Development
The North Royalton Planning Commission has recently approved site plans which include two additions on the Shearer Equipment building for new tenants and razing the building that houses Olesia’s Place and the home next door to make way for a multi-tenant building as part of the new 82 Biz Plex here in Ward 3. The proposal for this future 82 Biz Plex also includes razing the building in front of Shearer where Olesia’s Place is located and the home next door to construct a new, single-story freestanding building, 11,520 square feet in size, that can accommodate up to eight new tenants, also for office/light industrial. A new driveway will be installed where the home is currently. The Planning Commission also approved consolidating all three parcels into one. Construction to begin in 2019. As a result the restaurant Olesia’s Place will be relocating to the former Taverne of Richfield in the summer. It’s great to see some re-development in this part of Ward 3 but I am sad see Olesia’s Place go but wish them all the best. Read More.

Ward 3 Recycling Tip of the Month
Do not place holiday lights (tanglers) in your curbside recycling. Tanglers, including holiday lights and power cords, cannot be recycled in your home recycling bin and will cause problems and shut-downs at the local recycling facility. During the Christmas season, retailers including Home Depot and Lowe’s Home Improvement have collection bins for holiday lights. Check at your local store. Christmas Light Source and HolidayLEDs also offer recycling and rebate programs for strings of lights. The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo collects Lights for Lions to support lion and cheetah conservation efforts. Drop off bins are inside the Zoo gates from January 1st-February 15th. Recycle your broken, burned out strings of lights, power strips and power cords during the District’s holiday lights recycling program. The Solid Waste District accepts strands of lights (holiday lights and other strands) at its facility located at 4750 East 131 Street in Garfield Heights. Drop off in our lobby during business hours M-F 8:30am-4:30pm. The recycling program runs December 1st-January 15th. No bags or boxes in the recycling bin, please. Place items loose in our lobby drop box and take all bags, boxes and containers home with you. Artificial trees, solar lights and outdoor spotlights are not accepted. Materials collected are recycled by a local Cleveland company.

Councilman Langshaw Official Statement January 3, 2019

Langshaw Addresses Rumors about Possible Run for North Royalton Mayor or Council President

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

January 3, 2019

(North Royalton, Ohio)— Ward 3 Councilman Dan Langshaw has been rumored for months about a possible run for North Royalton Mayor or Council President. Langshaw 33 years old is one of the few current city elected officials who have successfully won citywide office before. In 2009, at the age of 23 he became the youngest resident in city history to be elected and serve on the North Royalton School Board. Langshaw served on the Board till 2013 and then has been the Ward 3 Councilman ever since.

On January 3rd Councilman Langshaw ended all the rumors with officially pulling his petitions at the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections to seek a fourth elected term on the North Royalton City Council for Ward 3 to continue his dedicated service to his residents and provide trusted veteran leadership for the community on Council.

After pulling his petitions Langshaw said “Serving as Mayor or Council President of North Royalton is something I definitely want to do in the near future and would be an honor. Seeking higher local elected office would allow me to help so many more residents and give me the ability to make an even greater difference for my home town. I appreciate all those in the community who have been urging me to run the last few months. However after meeting with my family over the holidays, some personal prayer, and self-reflection I am committed to continuing my service to my residents as the Ward 3 Councilman. At this point in my life since my young family has grown recently with the addition of my youngest son Derek, my dedication to working to complete some unfinished projects/issues in my ward, and ensuring my residents voices are heard on Council remain my continued number one priority. Just not the right time yet. However I will reassess again in a few years.”

A majority of City Council will be termed out of office. Langshaw plans to seek the Council Pro Tem position which is voted on by the new council once they are seated. The Council Pro Tem fills in for the Council President when they are absent. “As a US Army Veteran service is something that is in my DNA. 2020 will be a challenging transition year for our city. As a leader I believe my proven experience, dedication to service and leadership will be an asset to our community! As I a leader I plan to step up to the challenge by hopefully being selected to serve as Council Pro Tem and help mentor the new members of Council with my experience, so together we all can provide great service to our community” said Langshaw.

State Issue 1
I am continuing to get questions from residents about where I stand on State Issue 1 that is on the November 6th Ballot. Click Here to read my position and other community leaders. No matter where you stand on this issue. Please make sure you do your homework before you vote. If passed State Issue 1 will be very hard to change since it is a constitutional amendment.
