City Council approves Brookpark Road resurfacing ordinance

Cleveland City Council approved as amended File No. 1205-2026 on 2026-10-26, moving the emergency ordinance forward despite an earlier recommendation for denial from one committee. This approval allows the city to proceed with plans to resurface a section of Brookpark Road (SR-17) extending from west of Rocky River Drive (SR-237) to West 130th Street.

What changed

While the Municipal Services and Properties Committee recommended for denial on 2026-10-26, as we reported on 2026-10-26, the full City Council ultimately approved the measure as amended. This ordinance authorizes the Director of Capital Projects to enter into agreements with the cities of Brookpark and Parma to coordinate the resurfacing of this portion of Brookpark Road located within Cleveland. The measure also provides consent to the Director of Transportation of the State of Ohio for the project and authorizes payment to the City of Brookpark for Cleveland’s portion of the improvement.
