Cleveland City Council to hold condolence resolution for Jameel Hasan Koonce

Cleveland City Council is preparing to formally recognize the life of Jameel Hasan Koonce through a ceremonial resolution, identified as File No. 1188-2026. According to Calhoun Funeral Home & Cremation Service, Mr. Koonce was a graduate of Shaw High School and a product of the Euclid, Cleveland, and East Cleveland public school systems.

What's in the file

The file contains a ceremonial condolence resolution intended to honor the memory of Jameel Hasan Koonce. As a ceremonial resolution, the document serves as an official expression of sympathy from the city government rather than a piece of legislation that changes laws or allocates city funds.

The resolution was introduced to City Council on September 25, 2026, and is currently listed as "Agenda Ready." Related records indicate that the matter is scheduled to be addressed during a City Council session on September 28, 2026, which includes items for special resolutions and a moment of silence.
