Sorry for the delay ... here is the next day response from City Hall ...

Subject: News from "Listening to Lakewood" on 3/12

Some good news;
1. The rumor floating around that Lakewood Hospital is moving to Crocker Park is not true.
The City owns the Hospital and the Cleveland Clinic has leased it to December 26, 2026.
Mayor Summers stated that evolving health care practices [shorter hospital stays, more
out-patient procedures, more preventive care and the growth of the elderly portion of the
population] are items that are on the Mayor's agenda in discussion with the Clinic.

2. There are currently only 90 of the approximately 31,000 one and two family homes
on the market in Lakewood today.

3. The building department classified 1,300 homes with a "4" rating [In need of the most
work] last year. 400 of these homes have already brought their homes up to code. The
remaining 900 will be the focus starting with letters going out shortly. Less than half of
these properties are doubles. Lakewood Alive will continue to work with single family
owners that can't afford to bring there homes up to code.

4. A Captains/informational meeting is scheduled for April 2nd in the City Hall Auditorium at
7:00. Ward One Officer Ted Morley will give a presentation on kids and cyber crimes. A
Q & A and discussion will follow. Captains are invited to give helpful tips about
maintaining Block Clubs
