Connecting Cleveland Case Analysis

Through the generosity of Cleveland families, including the Gund Family, have generously donated money for the betterment of the city. Foundations work together to support institutions to make Cleveland a more vibrant and lively city; they give money to the art and cultural of the city but also the school and hospitals. The Families and Foundations don’t give money to the city because they have to, they give money because they believed that the City of Cleveland is a part of their universe of obligations. The citizens in Cleveland are responsible for one another and with that mentality we work together towards the improvement of the city we live

Given the various discussions, it is clear that the city is a long way from equality. Policies need to be put into that ensure anyone found discriminating another individual, be it in words or denying services to anyone faces proper justice. All people are worthy of basic social services that are inclusive of good healthcare and amenities such as housing.

I believe most importantly the city tries to save money and so a lot of things have to be cut and sacrificed. The majority of individuals that I questioned about residing here in East Cleveland where only satisfied with living here because this is where they have been living for many years. But if given the chance to move into a zip code that had more resources, then they would. My outlook on the city before and after this project honestly did not change. This city is in need of a lot of resources and community action. I believe if they would join The City of Cleveland, then they would have more resources to

Inner city distress in the American economy is not the only pressing issue facing the nation. Lack of businesses and jobs in most inner cities fuels a crushing cycle of poverty and crippling social problems like crime and drug abuse. As the condition of inner cities continue to worsen, debate on how to improve them through such measures as education, financial and technical assistance has continued to grow. The sad reality is that efforts from the past decades to address the causes of inner cities poverty have failed. Attempts to establish a sustainable economy through the creation of employment opportunities, wealth creation, and improved infrastructure (Kasarda, 4) have not worked. These efforts have failed

Over the last several decades Kansas City leaders have taken great pride in their efforts to build a world class city. In fact, Kansas City residents passed an $800 million general obligation bond referendum to address issues of deferred maintenance and capital improvements. Mayor Sly James celebrated the passage of this referendum by stating: “These are the things to which a world-class city commits”. Kansas City’s commitment to similar investments has been illustrious, but the beneficiaries were few. Those that have benefited most are corporations and domestic travelers. Kansas City's revitalization investments are costly for all residents, whether rich or poor. This era of ongoing investment began in 1989 with the ‘Clever Plan’ to redevelop

The politics of Trump soothe my soul to a heart's delight opposed to the liberal garbage spewed by San Bernardino City Hall. The closing of the Central City Hall, sardine packed Waterman Gardens sustainable development Agenda 21, the intrusions of open space known as Arrowhead Farms are a few despicable projects. Furthermore; the outsourcing of fire and the disbanding of various departments paying consultants and lawyers lining silk suits and Rolex watches. San Bernardino infiltrated with homelessness enabling poverty and mushroom pot shops has no end as a revolving door.  The battle of ideas between San Bernardino and I has no chance to reconcile, and instead of improving the city is on a collision course inviting more of the same. San Bernardino

As a political Science major I generally have a strong interest in government. As a lifelong resident of public housing, I have a specific interest in the New York City Housing Authority. So, when Civic Consulting USA, an organization dedicated to helping “government leaders tackle some of the toughest issues cities face”, offered me a fellowship in a project intended to improve NYCHA; it was quite easy to accept the opportunity. This essay is will discuss some of my thoughts

Organizations considering implementing a campaign must assess their options through a complex and intensive process that requires attention to detail. Based off the score of 83, Downtown Indy Inc. (IDI), is equipped to mount a major campaign. IDI acknowledges the impact of individuals, foundations, and corporations that drive the mission and vision of the organization.

On December 10th 2014, Detroit exited the biggest municipal bankruptcy in U.S history. "We're going to start fresh tomorrow and do the best we can to deliver the kind of services people deserve," said Mayor Mike Duggan(Davey,2014). Although both the government and citizens suffers a lot through the bankruptcy, after experiencing the loss of population, pension and healthcare hole and solving the problems with retirees creditors and bondholders, the city Detroit is expected to be improved than before such as the services and infrastructure. Even though all the financial slate is clean, there are still some problems remaining about how Detroit shifts its fate. For example, stopping the large migration of taxpayers and bringing jobs to those

Cleveland and Danahar both discussed the Oslo Accords in their books for their significance. However, Cleveland explained it in much more detail and attention. Though they agree on the reasons that eventually led the PLO to go with the Oslo Talks and Accords between them and Israel, Cleveland did a better job and provided detail. Cleveland explained how after the Gulf War of 1991, the PLO’s financial, economic, and political advantages had deteriorated. Due to the leader of the PLO Yassir Arafat’s support of Iraq in the war, after the war was over, the PLO had lost most of its financial backing from the rich Arabian Gulf countries, which were in war with Iraq. This loss of funding, Cleveland explained, forced the PLO to close and lose most of its social functions, offices, and

Over the years, the city of Syracuse has created and implemented a plan to revitalize the neighborhood of the Near West Side. This plan is known as the Near West Side Initiative. Along with Syracuse University and other public and private entities, the city’s aim is to combine new innovations with the community values and diverse culture within the neighborhood through home renovations, the conversion of abandoned spaces, and crime prevention (Neighborhoods Matter). The quality of neighborhood environments have subsequent potential related to health which can be assessed as parts of the following elements: economic, physical, social, and service. There are various factors within each element relating to the promotion or demotion of the

After watching the Bloomington city council meeting on February 3, 2016 there were multiple inherent issues which were discussed for the betterment of Bloomington as a whole. Some of the topics ranged from healthcare and education, to homelessness and safety. Though many plans the council mentioned which are currently in place are newer policies, a couple have been in place since our country’s origin. The councils use of public opinion and fundamental policies allows for Bloomington to demonstrate an example of a successfully run city.

Economic development for a defined area has three primary goals—foster employment opportunities for the area’s current residents, diversify the area’s economic and employment base, and stabilize the local economy (Blakely & Leigh, 2013). By providing quality jobs for an area’s residents, versus the more costly alternative of bringing new firms to the area (which could also require a different skill set in their labor force than what the city currently has--rendering the city’s effort somewhat fruitless), the economic planning organization is looking to create employment diversity and opportunities from within their own community that are suitable for the area’s workforce. An area must also be highly aware of the business environment within the community to ensure that local economic stability is possible. If the city does not have a diverse infrastructure that firms require to conduct business than the locality will not be able to grow, retain, or attract firms within or to the area. Diversity in the economic and employment base is also a complex and constantly evolving challenge for local economic development practitioners. The organization must be able to keep track and organize employment data within a locality to see where certain sectors of the economy are in the need of assistance to prevent employment gaps in the community. Planner’s should be constantly comparing their strategies and approaches to the three goals local economic development, and prevent any action
