Did you know that the organization that would eventually become Campus District was created as a police force? Before each entity had their own safety forces, Cleveland State University, Saint Vincent Charity Medical Center, and Cuyahoga Community College formed the Saint Vincent Quadrangle in 1983. Over those 37 years our neighborhood and organization has seen much change, however our governing documents remained essentially untouched until now.
In December of last year, the Board of Directors of Campus District, after much deliberation, voted on a new Code of Regulations. This change will enable the organization to seek out additional resources that allow us to provide more direct programming to our neighborhood. As the only known Community Development Corporation that relies solely on private fundraising, this change is essential for us to continue to meet the needs of the community. As we enter this new decade, we’re eager to continue the momentum of last year, (click here for the review of 2019), but we’re even more excited about what possibilities lie ahead.
With our new membership structure now in place, we’ll be providing more opportunities for community members to engage with one another with special events, tours, and gatherings. This spring we plan to introduce more specialized cleaning equipment in the Superior Arts District, begin a lunchtime event along East 22nd Street, and continue our work of community development through public art.
I invite you to be part of this next chapter in our evolving community. If you’re not already a member of Campus District, please reach out to me for membership levels and benefits. And I wish you and all members of the Campus District community and safe and happy 2020.
Sincerely,
Mark Lammon
Executive Director
