CLEVELAND — Residents and homeowners who rely on Cleveland's Cudell Park held a protest in front of the Cleveland school board meeting on Aug. 22, hoping to stop a plan that would eliminate park space and three dozen trees.
"We would like to see them come up with a better plan, a plan that doesn’t call for them to use 44% of Cudell Park," Hudson said. “It’s unconscionable, it’s going to affect air quality, it’s going to affect the heat in the neighborhood, it’s going to affect the quality of life." “Kids will benefit, they have higher test scores, there’s less bullying, there’s less stress, just being able to see trees from the schools," Palmer said. “I’m not critical of the school system, but I think sometimes we’re short-sighted.”
Patti Choby with the Cobalt Group consulting firm, representing Cleveland schools, told News 5 it hired its own arborist to best replace the tree canopy and have residents be part of the process. Choby said afinal decision on the school planwill be made by the superintendent's office, but said last-minute changes in the plan would be difficult.
