We’re Making Plans — and We Want Your Ideas
The City is engaged in two major planning processes: (1) the Lee Road Action Plan, which will guide the revitalization of
Lee Road south of Van Aken Boulevard; and (2) Forward Together, a joint initiative with the Shaker Schools and Shaker Library to
create a comprehensive facilities master plan for the entire community.
Early this year, residents will be invited to a series of engagement opportunities for both of these projects. Please join us! Public
input is vital to our success. Here’s what you need to know:
Lee Road Action Plan
The Lee Road Action Plan is a visionary reinvestment plan to create a more thriving corridor and commercial district that
is attractive, walkable, bikeable, and transit-friendly. The City has engaged WSP USA to lead a planning process that will include a
stakeholder group, focus groups, outreach to businesses and adjacent residents in the Lomond and Moreland neighborhoods, and
several City-wide community engagement opportunities.
We need your help to guide improvements along Lee Road, including those that will calm traffic, improve safety, connect the
district and adjacent neighborhoods, provide pedestrian/bike amenities, make the area more business-friendly, and more. Do you
have ideas about how to make Lee Road more attractive, safe, and successful? Visit shakeronline.com/leeactionplan to learn more
and sign up to receive email updates.
Forward Together
Public engagement for Forward Together began last fall, when the City, Schools, and Library held a series of in-person and
virtual workshops, focus groups, online surveys, and more.
Additional public engagement is planned for early this year as we continue to work toward developing a facilities master plan for
all of Shaker Heights. This plan will guide our future actions and investments in our community facilities, including school buildings,
the community center, Thornton Park, Bertram Woods Library Branch, and much more.
