A note from Mayor Jackson:

This afternoon, I delivered my fifth State of the City Address, entitled The Pulse of a Brand New Day:
Seizing opportunity at this critical moment in time.  More than 700 stakeholders from Cleveland and the region joined me to hear about the challenges we’ve faced and the opportunities that are before us. Most importantly, we discussed the need to take action at this critical moment in Cleveland’s history and to take advantage of the changes that the global economic crisis, county reform and educational transformation are bringing to our community.

Thank you for your continued support. I look forward to continuing to work with you to make Cleveland everything it can be and ought to be a great City at the heart of a great region.

Sincerely,

Frank G. Jackson, Mayor
City of Cleveland
