  • Welcome to the 10Th Annual Sustainable Cleveland Summit! September 20-21, 2018
    Welcome to the 10th Annual Sustainable Cleveland Summit! September 20-21, 2018 Thank you for joining me at the 2018 Sustainable Cleveland Summit. Sustainable Cleveland 2019 is a ten- year initiative that engages the entire community to design and develop a sustainable economy for Cleveland. We have the resources, the people, and the ideas to make our regional economy strong, resilient, and equitable. Sustainable Cleveland 2019 has gained support and grown in scope and numbers since it launched in 2009. We have engaged more than 10,000 people and hundreds of organizations and have seen a wide variety of initiatives addressing the full spectrum of sustainability. As we prepare for next year’s culmination of this initiative, we look to build off this momentum while encouraging boldness, creativity, and action. During this Summit, we will celebrate the current “Year of Vital Neighborhoods” and accelerate planning for 2019, the “Year of People.” We will begin implementation of the City’s updated Climate Action Plan, which was co-created by our local organizations and residents. The 2018 Summit is also special because it is the last one before June 22, 2019 – the 50th anniversary of the infamous Cuyahoga River fire. This presents a unique opportunity to advance clean water issues locally and nationally in 2019. I would like to thank our sponsors, the Flourishing Leadership Institute, the 2019 Steering Committee, and all Summit participants for moving this initiative forward. We can’t do this without you. Sincerely, Frank G. Jackson, Mayor 2 Sustainable Cleveland 2019 Mission, Vision and Values Together, we’re building a thriving green city on a blue lake Mission: Sustainable Cleveland 2019 is a 10-year initiative that engages people from all walks of life, working together to design and develop a thriving and resilient Cleveland region that leverages its wealth of assets to build economic, social, and environmental well-being for all.

  • THE CLEVELAND PLAN: 2012 – 2016 Strategic Implementation Plan
    THE CLEVELAND PLAN: 2012 – 2016 Strategic Implementation Plan PART I: INTRODUCTION Process to Date, Stakeholders’ Key Messages It is a time of dynamic change and evolution for the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) and for the students and communities we serve. CMSD’s next chapter in its history is now underway, with the benefit of the stakeholder feedback, ideas and support we have received. After gathering input on the initial draft of CMSD’s implementation strategy, this next chapter in CMSD’s transformation journey will ultimately determine the legacy of the district, and, more importantly, the legacy of the children of Cleveland. The stakes are high, but the success of our students will have a tremendous payoff not only for the District, but also for the City of Cleveland, the region and the state. Since December 2012, when the District circulated the initial implementation strategy draft for public review, feedback and input, hundreds of stakeholders have shared their thoughtful insights and comments. All feedback gathered through February, 2013 available for review on CMSD’s Web site, www.clevelandmetroschools.org. The district is deeply appreciative of both the complimentary comments and the constructively critical views that individuals and groups shared with us. It is that candor, open dialogue, and a transparent exchange of ideas that comprise the core principles guiding our work. The District was pleased to hear many stakeholders express their own appreciation for the opportunity given to engage the public and to hear their perspectives. One stakeholder summed up the comments of many: “I have enjoyed reading the aggressive plan.
