More than 200 people packed Cuyahoga County Council chambers February 14th, 2017; resolution to spend 282 million in tax dollars to renovate Quicken Loans Arena at issue.
Members of Greater Cleveland Congregations, a non-partisan coalition which represents 100,000 people across 43 congregations and partner organizations in Cuyahoga County, made up the bulk of the crowd.
"I find this deal unconscionable," said GCC member Donna Weinberger of Solon. "This deal is not fair, equitable and not the best we can do to bring vitality and growth to all our neighborhoods."
