We are right in the sweet spot of summer. While the global excitement of the World Cup wraps up this weekend, there is still plenty of summer left to soak up across Greater Cleveland—whether you are spending a breezy afternoon down by the lake or taking a walk through the city’s tree-lined neighborhoods. But even as we enjoy these glorious July days, we’re keeping a close eye on our changing local landscape.
This week, neighborhood headlines are giving residents plenty to talk about. From school staffing updates to crucial public health notices and major victories for local workers in the courtroom, things are moving fast. Before you check out for the weekend, let’s see how well you’ve been paying attention.
