New Home Repair Initiative Coming to Slavic Village
Residents in the Slavic Village neighborhood may soon see improvements to local housing through a new partnership between the city and a community organization. City Council has passed emergency ordinance 882-2026, which authorizes the Director of the Department of Aging to enter into an agreement with Community Housing Solutions to launch the Slavic Village Home Repair Project. This initiative focuses on providing essential home repairs to help residents maintain independence and ensure they have access to safe housing.
The project will be funded using Closed Ward 12 Casino Revenue Funds. Community Housing Solutions is an organization that serves residents across Cuyahoga County by providing solutions intended to protect homes and strengthen communities. The legislation was introduced to the City Council on July 14, 2026, and was included in the City Record July 24, 2026.
Because this was passed as an emergency ordinance, the measure is now active. Residents can watch for future updates regarding the implementation of these repairs and how the casino revenue funds are deployed for this specific neighborhood project.
