City of Cleveland PUBLIC PARTICIPATION SURVEY????
Yes--Dianna, I completed this useless public participation survey and attended the meeting to
decide how the City of Cleveland would divvy up the poverty dollars--neighborhood development allocations
we qualify for in the City of Cleveland...it was a farce.
Wilbur and Rush--at that meeting--were later suspended for their handling of the city's Afford-A-Home program. But, rest assured, in UREALNEO, they still have their jobs...I can't get the Cleveland.com links to load--
