City of Lakewood City Council Council At Large Sarah Kepple, President Thomas R. Bullock III Angelina Hamilton Steiner Ward Council Kyle Baker, Ward 1, Vice President Bryan Evans, Ward 2 Cindy Strebig, Ward 3 Cindy Marx, Ward 4 12650 Detroit Ave. Lakewood, OH 44107 216) 529-6055 | www.lakewoodoh.gov October 20, 2025 Lakewood City Council Lakewood, Ohio Re: Committee of the Whole Report – October 13, 2025 Dear Colleagues, The Committee of the Whole met on October 13, 2025 to interview candidates to fill the Council appointed seats on the newly formed Complete Streets & Advisory Board ( CASE). We received applications from 23 residents interested in joining the CASE Board. After reviewing all of the excellent applications at a previous Committee of the Whole meeting, Council invited ten people to interview. Each interview was scheduled for ten minutes, and we asked each candidate to come prepared to answer the following questions: 1. Why are you interested in serving on CASE, and what skills, knowledge and experiences would you contribute? 2. What do you know about Complete Streets and why is it important? 3. What is one near short term goal on which CASE could begin working right away? Council was blown away by the unique skill sets and the amount of passion for Complete Streets that each candidate brought to the table. After the interviews were over, we entered into Executive Session for the purpose of considering the appointment of a public official. Upon exiting Executive Session, I made a motion to insert the following names into Resolution 2025- 42; Sean McDermott, Tracy Greenberg, Cody George and Emily Lindberg, and to enter Vice President Baker’ s name to serve as the ex-officio Council representative to the CASE Board. A motion was made and passed unanimously to refer Resolution 2025- 42 as amended back to full Council for adoption, and it is on the docket this evening. We would like to thank everyone that took the time to apply for the CASE Advisory Board, as well as those that came in for an interview. Lakewood is truly blessed to have so many highly qualified residents that are willing to volunteer their time and talents in the service of our community. It was a very difficult decision to narrow it down to just four people, but we are confident that our appointees are up for the challenge of getting the CASE Advisory Board up and running. We expect there will be many opportunities for the community to continue to be involved in this work moving forward. Sincerely, Sarah Kepple President of Council Councilmember At Large 001

City of Lakewood City Council Council At Large Sarah Kepple, President Thomas R. Bullock III Angelina Hamilton Steiner Ward Council Kyle Baker, Ward 1, Vice President Bryan Evans, Ward 2 Cindy Strebig, Ward 3 Cindy Marx, Ward 4 12650 Detroit Ave. Lakewood, OH 44107 216) 529-6055 | www.lakewoodoh.gov October 20, 2025 RE: City Hall Space Due Diligence Update Dear Colleagues, I am writing to provide a timeline and update on the due diligence work being performed regarding City Hall space potential solutions. As you know, the heads of all three branches of government, myself, Mayor George and Judge Neff have all recognized the need to address the space issues at the current City Hall, and Council has previously identified addressing the police space issues, particularly the insufficient women’s locker rooms, as a budget priority. In 2023, the Administration had Weber Murphy Fox (“WMF”) complete a space analysis study at City Hall, and at the final meeting of Council in 2024 Mayor George and I introduced a communication to bring the space study before Council. At the February 3rd and June 16th meetings of Committee of the Whole, Councilmembers asked a variety of questions which could be generally summarized as: What are the possible options to solve the space issues? How much does each option cost? What are the operational and customer service pros/cons of each? At the July 7th meeting of Council, the Administration placed legislation on the docket to purchase 1470 Warren Road and expressed the idea of moving administrative functions to that property, allowing for the expansion of the police and courts into the existing City Hall to create a Justice Center. In order to properly consider this proposal, Council leadership hired Project Management Consultants (“PMC”) to help us evaluate any data that the Administration had previously collected toward answering the above questions, as well as evaluate what additional data we needed to ask the Administration to provide to answers to additional questions, such as: How could an addition be built onto the current City Hall of sufficient size to address the space issues, and how much would it cost? How much will it cost to fully gut and renovate the Warren Road building and retrofit the current City Hall into a Justice Center? How do the City Hall improvements previously laid out in the 5-year capital plan (for example, window replacements) fit into the overall budget and timing of the proposed project options? What are the ongoing operational costs and the customer service and efficiency pros/cons of each? Vice President Baker, Councilmember Evans and I formed a working group to dig into these overarching questions, and we have been meeting weekly with our consultant from PMC, Chris Panichi, an architect with a background in civic construction and renovation projects. We asked Planning Director Byington to pull all preliminary documents related to the City Hall space question into a shared drive which is now accessible to all councilmembers, and PMC reviewed them. Below is a timeline of some of the continuing work following that preliminary review: August 13, 2025 PMC toured Warren Road building with Councilmembers Bryan Evans and Angelina Hamilton Steiner. 032

City of Lakewood City Council Council At Large Sarah Kepple, President Thomas R. Bullock III Angelina Hamilton Steiner Ward Council Kyle Baker, Ward 1, Vice President Bryan Evans, Ward 2 Cindy Strebig, Ward 3 Cindy Marx, Ward 4 12650 Detroit Ave. Lakewood, OH 44107 216) 529-6055 | www.lakewoodoh.gov August 21st PMC/Council working group met and concluded based on the high-level estimate provided, a site visit would be required to better understand current conditions and proposed renovation estimate for City Hall. August 27th PMC toured City Hall. September 4th PMC/Council working group met and concluded the need for the Administration to have their consultant, WMF, develop a similar level renovation assessment with probable cost estimate on the Warren Road site to provide equal level of due diligence. In addition, PMC requested a meeting with WMF to further understand the level of renovation required and expectation for the current City Hall. September 16th, Chis Panichi (PMC) and the Council working group met with Planning Director Byington, Assistant Director Baas, and David Thal from WMF to discuss what was the anticipated level of renovation for the current City Hall and the need to perform an assessment for the Warren Road building equal to the level of the one they did for the current City Hall. September 25th, Director Byington sent the proposed scope of work to David Thal at WMF to provide a proposal to assess the Warren Road building and provide an estimate of probably construction cost to renovate. October 1st, WMF sent the attached proposal which includes the scope of work to be done to provide an estimate of the cost of renovating the Warren Road building. October 14th, David Thal of WMF and Chris Panichi of PMC met and created the following summarization of options that have evolved through this due diligence process: Option 1 – Renovate the current City Hall with modest 3,000 square foot addition to the west for police expansion and renovate the Annex across the street. Option 2 – Infill the “U” in the back of the current City Hall as an addition and renovate the current City Hall and Annex. The Administration has stated that the sally port location for the jail makes this option less viable. Option 3 – Renovate current City Hall and add a large addition. The estimate created is based on a two- story addition onto the front of the building. Option 4 – Purchase and fully renovate 1470 Warren Road to accommodate a large part of administrative functions, renovate the current City Hall to expand police and courts, and sell the Annex. Once WMF has completed this estimate, the Council working group and PMC will re-convene. It is my hope that we will then be able to move forward with a committee of the whole meeting with the two consultants in attendance to review and discuss all of the data for the options including project costs. Sincerely, Sarah Kepple President of Council, Member at Large 033

Bullock III Angelina Hamilton Steiner Ward Council Kyle Baker, Ward 1, Vice President Bryan Evans, Ward 2 Cindy Strebig, Ward 3 Cindy Marx, Ward 4 October 20, 2025 Lakewood City Council Lakewood, Ohio Re: 2025 Update to Youth Council Bylaws Dear Colleagues, I submit the following resolution to you on behalf of the Lakewood Youth Council to update the Youth Council’s bylaws. The Youth Council was established in 2019 and drafted its original bylaws shortly after that time. The bylaws were first updated in 2023. After working under the updated bylaws for over two years, the Council saw a need to incorporate more flexibility, better reflect the existing practices of the Council, and to address parliamentary questions and issues that have arisen. The changes are relatively minor and do not substantially alter the operations of the Youth Council. The process for updating Youth Council’s bylaws is for Youth Council to approve them by a majority vote, which occurred this summer. The next step is for the bylaws to be approved by City Council, which the accompanying resolution seeks to accomplish. I will end by saying that as an advisor to this group of bright young adults, I applaud them for taking the time to ensure that their processes and practices are accurately reflected in the bylaws. I look forward to further discussion on this topic. Sincerely, Cindy Strebig Councilmember, Ward 3 037
