Breuer Building Community forum facilitated by Meet The Bloggers May 23, 2007

Once a month Meet.The.Bloggers, Midtown Brews and I-open host a community forum. Our theme this year is based on making Cleveland a global leader in lessening our carbon footprint and using it as a goal to drive economic development in our region.

Since we have an issue confronting us here in Cleveland concerning the Breuer Building and its Carbon Footprint vs. the Carbon Footprint of a brand spanking new county administration building, we thought that a special Community Roundtable to discuss the county's plans for East Ninth and Euclid was especially approriate. Our discussion will include the "green" initiatives included in the plans, the embedded energy at the site and how the plans will lessen our carbon footprint. In essence, how do these plans benefit our regional community and economy?

We have invited all three county commissioners to participate in this forum. Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones has accepted our invitation. Commissioner Jimmy Dimora has a prior commitment but Joyce Burke-Jones will be attending as his representative to the forum. We have yet to hear from Commissioner Tim Hagan.

Our conversations are usually lively, and everyone benefits from the exchange of ideas and opinions. We would love to have you participate in this discussion. Ample parking is available behind the building.
