Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Shaker Heights public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Solar panels on historic landmark homes
Two solar projects came before the board: one on Shaker Boulevard was approved with conditions, while panels on a Coventry Road home were continued over placement around the eyebrow dormers. The homeowner argued the city promotes solar, so panel counts shouldn't be reduced.
Neighbor's Art Shop & Studio conditional use permit and parking variance
A new art studio with classes for kids and adults is coming to the Kingsbury Building at 3431 Lee Road. The board approved the permit and a parking variance, and City Council must confirm before it's final.
