FutureHeights, a non-profit community group based in Cleveland Heights, has founded a citizen-led newspaper and website called “The Heights Observer”.
Complementing the rich tapestry of citizen involvement that Heights neighborhoods are famous for, the Observer provides articles, news and information about Cleveland Heights and University Heights. The articles are written by volunteers that live in these communities.
Some of the topics covered in recent issues include historic preservation, neighborhood summer festivals, and the city’s recent budget cuts.
The cover story for the June 3rd issue featured Heights residents that volunteered to take over the installation of hanging flower baskets on Cedar and Fairmount Roads when the city cut this program due to budgetary constraints. It also features an interview with CH Mayor Ed Kelley, and an article about the economic importance of Severance Town Centre to Cleveland Heights.
