EAST CLEVELAND , Ohio — The plan to transform East Cleveland got an infusion of funding Tuesday. The Cuyahoga Land Bank announced its Circle East District redevelopment project was awarded $2.3 million from a federal bill that passed in March.
Of that $2.3 million, $1 million is going to homeowners who already live in the neighborhood to help them with needed repairs. Roberts said the Land Bank wanted to make sure existing residents felt “taken care of and supported.” The Circle East Development project calls for 200 new homes, but longtime homeowners are worried it could trigger a property tax hike.
