Correcting Landmark Designations for St. Jerome Property
City Council is considering an emergency ordinance to update the official records for the St. Jerome Church, School, Convent, and Rectory. File number 1163-2026 seeks to amend and correct the previous legislation from 2008 that designated these properties as Cleveland Landmarks.
## What's in the file
The proposed ordinance aims to amend Section 1 of Ordinance No. 1147-08, which originally established the landmark status for the St. Jerome complex located at 14934-15104 Lakeshore Boulevard and 15017-15105 Ridpath Avenue. According to the Legislative Summary, the primary purpose of this change is to amend and correct the legislation by adjusting the permanent parcel numbers associated with the landmark designation. The record indicates there is no estimated cost or funding required for this amendment.
## Who may be affected
The legislation specifically names Ward 10, represented by Councilperson Polensek.
## Status and timeline
