All Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs Publications

The Ohio New Establishment Dynamics (O-NED) data set tracks the number of establishments that first started employing people between the second quarter of 1997 and the first quarter of 2008 and measures the employment and payroll data for these new establishments.

Fiscal Review Of The Cleveland Public Library & Scan Of State And National Trends In Library Funding, Claudette Robey, Kevin O'Brien

All Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs Publications

This report presents a review of the financial condition of the Cleveland Public Library (CPL) from 1998 to 2010, presents a national scan of how libraries have creatively adjusted to economic conditions, and profiles the challenges of Ohio and national libraries considered as peers to CPL over the past five years. The results suggest that CPL has successfully mitigated impacts from the economic recession due to strong leadership, adequate revenues, controlled expenditures, and frugal financial management of cash reserves. The financial challenge to CPL will be in maintaining its current level of services as the city of Cleveland’s population, and …

Responding To Foreclosures In Cuyahoga County 2011 Evaluation Report, Kathryn W. Hexter, Molly Schnoke Jan 2012

Responding To Foreclosures In Cuyahoga County 2011 Evaluation Report, Kathryn W. Hexter, Molly Schnoke

All Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs Publications

The foreclosure crisis hit Cuyahoga County earlier and harder than the rest of the nation. The crisis continues to weaken the County’s already weak housing market, as evidenced by declining property values, increasing numbers of vacant and abandoned properties and the continuing high rates of foreclosure filings. In 1999, there were 4,900 residential foreclosure filings in Cuyahoga County. That number doubled to about 10,000 by 2005 and peaked in 2007 at close to 14,000. In 2011, the County had just over 11,000 residential foreclosure filings. In total, an estimated 68,000 homes in the County have been “touched” by foreclosure. The …
