On Sept. 5, Berea City Council met for their bi-weekly meeting.
The council had the first reading for an ordinance to authorize Mayor Cyril Kleem to enter into an agreement with the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency and the Federal Transit Administration for “enhanced mobility” for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
The council also had the first reading to amend Ordinance NO. 2023-30, which established the Tree Reimbursement Program, a program that entitles residents to a “sum of money” equal to half the cost of trees planted in their front lawns or tree lawns. This amendment revised the minimum dimension of the trees planted.
