We also need something big to get our city to the next level. I don’t know what it is…

But I know what it isn’t.

Cleveland can be a very conservative town, and thus hesitant to enforce new ideas-especially if there are special interests to contend with. Thanks Rebecca.

The crazy part is that people view them as crazy. I agree with ALL of your ideas; there is nothing crazy about any of them. The crazy part is that people view them as crazy.
