Tree canopy provides many benefits to society including moderating climate, reducing building energy use and atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), improving air and water quality, mitigating rainfall runoff and flooding, enhancing human health and social well-being and lowering noise impacts (Nowak and Dwyer, 2007). It provides wildlife habitat, enhances property values, and has aesthetic impacts to an environment. Establishing a tree canopy goal is crucial for communities seeking to improve their natural environment and green infrastructure. A tree canopy assessment is the first step in this goal setting process, showing the amount of tree canopy currently present as well as the amount that could theoretically be established.

  • Restoration of the Cuyahoga River in Ohio, 1968-Present
    Restoration of the Cuyahoga River in Ohio, 1968-present Jeff Zeitler Abstract The Cuyahoga River of northeastern Ohio has long been notorious for its low water quality, especially for having caught fire at least three times between 1936 and 1969. The Upper Cuyahoga River has long been in better condition than the lower river. It is plagued by low dissolved oxygen as a result of its many drinking water reservoirs and its naturally low gradient, however its problems are dwarfed by those of the Lower Cuyahoga River. The lower Cuyahoga River has historically been heavily polluted by fecal matter and other discharge from sewage treatment plants, as well as by chemicals discharged by steel and coke refineries. The navigation channel at the mouth of the river robs the extreme lower portion of the river of oxygen. All these factors combined make the habitat value of the river very low. Restoration efforts began in the early1970’s and the Cuyahoga River today is in better condition, though much room for improvement remains. Introduction The Cuyahoga River is a U-shaped 100-mile (160 km) long low-gradient river located in Northeastern Ohio, beginning near the Lake Erie plain, heading south, then making a sharp turn to the north, passing through the major cities of Akron and Cleveland. The river moves slowly through a 813 square mile (2081 square km) watershed which is largely split between agricultural land use, urban uses, and second-growth forest. Akron is the fifth-largest city in Ohio, with 217,000 inhabitants and Cleveland is the largest city in Ohio, with a city population of 505,000 and a metropolitan area population of 2.9 million (City of Akron 2001).

  • Chapter 6 the Shape of the Sub-Cities
    Chapter 6 The Shape of the Sub-cities What would be the shape of the new sub-cities within the existing City of Cleveland? Let us again examine the suburban experience. Suburban boundaries have been largely determined by three factors-physical barriers such as main streets, rivers or ravines; the political boundaries of other cities; and the bound­ aries of the farms, country estates or other large land parcels that once existed at the peripheries of the intended suburbs. They create realistic limitations for cohesive management of the financial, physical and political ingredients of effective local government. Boundaries for sub-cities within a city would take into ac­ count similar considerations. Many of those features inside the City of Cleveland now represent almost insurmountablebarriers to continuity of municipal service. At Cleveland’sbeginning, natural barriers were the lake, rivers, ravines and hillsides. Some sections of Cleveland, such as Old Brooklyn (south of Brookside Park and Riverside Cemetery) and Old Newburgh (the Broadway area) developed unique feelings of separateness because of physical barriers. In the late 1800’s,railroads were placed near the shore of Lake Erie and along all the major river beds and ravines. Industry was given priority for development along those rights of way. A few connecting rail lines were added to create new manmade barriers of track and industry. In the intervening years, we have added freeways and cemeteries adjacent to those same barriers. The suburbs have grown around Cleveland, and industry has filled the valleys in such a way that the residential area of Cleve­ land is like a four fingered hand.
