Documenters captured lots of action in public meetings last week.
Residents advocated for veterans housing. Cleveland City Council debated a proposal to create a $10 million neighborhood safety fund and decided to cut civic participation from the list of things the city would spend federal stimulus money on. That and more in this week’s episode!
