I covered this years ago for @ClevelandScene, but Ohio is still paying drastically less than its neighbors on public transit. @PolicyMattersOH
Ohio=$4 per capita
Indiana=$36
Pennsylvania=$112

There are a lot of folks in this town who have worked really hard, for a really long time to bring the FEWB to life. Today is building on the legacy of organizers from nearly 20 years ago who initially brought the idea of the FEWB to life. Itβs truly a beautiful thing π₯Ήπ₯Ήπ₯Ή

Packed-to-the-gills Cleveland City Council caucus meeting this afternoon, where they appear to have ordered soup by the gallon (or at least by the quart).

From start to finish. @dmcbillion brought this cool artwork for us to build during a @cledocumenters meeting last month. He added the finishing touches and presented it to the group at our skate party with @signalcleveland last night.

If anyone else had trouble setting up an Ohio ACE account (funding for kids extracurricular), let me tell you what I had to do.
This is after you've applied and been approved, and now have to set up your account.

Axios Cleveland now has more than 10k subscribers and is growing every day. @troylsmith and I are basically trying to be a condensed newspaper in your inbox every morning.
Radical new format for both of us, but we're getting the hang of it. axios.com/signup/cleveland

Learning how to find public records is its own reward β itβs like a treasure hunt! But if you need more incentive, everyone who takes the @ClePublicRecord
course enters into a contest to win $300! So please share this opportunity with your friends! @cledocumenters
Iβm officially here for public records being the publicβs property. Now we just need to make more of them open and easily accessible!!!
βI support open data for every government record. Itβs important that the public has access to the records. Public records are the publicβs property.β - @kevinkelleyCLE #CleVotersFirst #CityClub

It says it right there in our bio, The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections exists to serve the citizens of Cuyahoga County. Public records requests included!

Itβs been an absolute pleasure helping residents who completed the @ClePublicRecord text course put it to use.
One thing I didnβt anticipate was the people trying to get records to:
β’Help solve the murder of loved one
β’ Help prove a loved one was not involved in a crime

Professional lawyer (non-mascot) adviceπ
Replying to @ClePublicRecord @GenniferwithaG_
Scoop is absolutely right! Generally you want to be as specific as possible, and don't be afraid to break out into separate requests. If you want correspondence, it's generally best to identify an account or custodian.
Maybe the @CityofCleveland can help? π
Replying to @GenniferwithaG_
Folks, we broke the internet. Gen and I spoke with a couple other records sleuths and actual results from the Cleveland Public Records Center are, well....sporadic.
