Neighborhood News:Meet Your PoliceThursday, December 6, 2018, 6 - 8pm
One of the City's responses to the concerns we expressed at the April 29, 2014 Community Meeting is to change the location of the Meet Your Police event to the Police Academy on Noble at Monticello. On the first Thursday of every month, the police will be in our neighborhood to meet with us (and any other Cleveland Heights resident). On the other Thursdays, the police will return to City Hall where they have been meeting us for years. Let's take advantage of this!! On Feb. 28, 2018, Police Chief Mecklenburg held a meeting for citizens at the Community Center. Responding to resident requests, she described crimes in the city and progress on solving those cases. Statistics going back several years demonstrated trends. Click here to view the power point presentation she showed.

Quote Wall Are we really making a difference? Oh, yes we are! These quotes are from emails, website form submissions and conversations. Not one of them was solicited. Each of these people voluntarily reached out to us to tell us what they feel. Thank you!! You're an encouragement to us all!
I am so happy to read about all the incredible things Noble Neighbors is doing. I loved being involved with my neighborhood organization in Hartford before I had kids, and I am eager to get involved with Noble Neighbors when my kids graduate and I am not doing school volunteer work anymore! In the meantime, thanks so much for all your hard work. I have noticed a difference in the feel of the neighborhood over the last few years because of your work, and it makes me so happy to be living here! ~ Neighbor who is very active in school PTAs. Her work in the schools is critical to our growing success! Dec. 2018 There is no blueprint for what we're trying to do to transform this neighborhood. It's up to us to be creative. ~ Long time neighbor who is excited about the Noble Corridor Project, Nov. 2018 We lived on Montevista from '97 to 2013. Big place in my heart for that neighborhood. I am just blown away by the amazing community building you are doing. ~ Former resident who moved to another neighborhood in Cleveland Heights joined our email list, May 2018 The neighborhood looks terrific! I saw people at the library and a church on Noble. There are kids doing chalk drawings. It feels wonderful! ~ Former resident had moved out of town and returned to visit during We Are Noble 2018. I wanted to formally introduce you to one of Cleveland Heights' strongest neighborhood groups: Noble Neighbors. Noble Neighbors is a collection of residents that advocate for the "Noble Neighborhood" in Cleveland Heights (i.e. north of Mayfield, and east of Taylor). They've exploded over the past few years and have brought significant attention to issues of housing, safety, and economic development in the northeast quadrant of Cleveland Heights. ~ This is how a CH City Council member described us to a political candidate, Jan. 2018 See more at www.nobleneighbors.com/quote-wall.html |
