Good news for Ward 15?

Some good news for my neighborhood-the Treadway Creek Project is off-the-ground [1] and recycling may be coming back to the City of Cleveland thanks to the efforts of C [2]ouncilwoman Donna Brady. [2]

Councilman Cummins, can you add anything to these stories?  I have quite a few recyclables for pick-up! So, please include my address in the pilot project.  Lori Peterson notes in the Old Brooklyn News that Florescent Recycling, 1624 St. Clair Cleveland 44114 216-583-0274, is the only location accepting compact florescent bulbs, which contain mercury....(Personally, I would still hold off on committing to these bulbs until there is a better recycling strategy in place).

The other big news in my 'hood is that Pearl Community Investment Corp, [3] a faith-based non-profit, bought the YMCA building on Pearl Rd.  for $125,000.  The rehab costs will be high to bring the building up to usuable standards, so it will be interesting to see what the non-profit ultimately hopes to gain from the property.  See the Secretary of State website for more information. [3]  They claim that their mission is to plan, develop, and construct community-based capital projects in greater Cleveland.
