City of Cleveland officials revealed findings from a 2023 Cleveland Property Inventory at City Hall Thursday morning. Surveyors assigned grades to each property and structure and collected data on their conditions, information officials say will help in creating a healthier community, and determining how to allocate ARPA funds.
According to Sally Martin O’Toole, Cleveland Director of Building and Housing, the survey started in late October, and surveyors worked through the winter surveying more than 167,000 land parcels in Cleveland.
Isaac Robb with the Western Reserve Land Conservancy said that distance was more than 1,400 miles walked, adding up to more than three million steps.
“This survey is so important because it truly allows the city to do a couple things,” said Mayor Justin Bibb. “Number one, be more aggressive on code enforcement, it’s going to give us more tools to crack down on predatory out of state land lords and investors, it also is going to beef up our ability to address the lead paint crisis that we see in our homes all across the city.”
Mayor Bibb said the data will ensure the city is executing investments in such a way that residents “feel and see the change when it comes to neighborhood stability.”
