Dew Diligence - Episode 27 - University Heights Mayor Michael Dylan Brennan
Its been a roller coaster year at City Hall in University Heights. And Mayor Michael Dylan Brennan has decided this is his last ride. He talks to Dew Diligence about the big decision to not run for reelection in 2025.
Councilman Craig Cobb is not happy. He and five other members of Cleveland Heights City Council voted to approve a temporary 3-month budget, rejecting Mayor Seren's full-year 2025 budget. Mayor Seren says this is petty politics. Council says chaos in the city finance department, delays in getting budget materials and holes in the budget as presented made passing the Mayor's budget as presented impossible.
The growing pains continue for our still new-ish form of government. The Cleveland Heights Rec Director lights City Hall a love letter on the way out the door which set off a chain of events ending with Mayor Seren investigating members of City Council for meeting in secret (violating Sunshine Laws).
