On May 15, 2017, County Executive Ilene Shapiro and County Council passed two pieces of legislation aimed at increasing awareness of two key issues that substantially impact Summit County; strong local infrastructure and mental health awareness.
Resolution No. 2017-160 recognized the week of May 15th to May 19th, 2017 as Infrastructure Week in Summit County. The goal of this legislation is to recognize the importance of a strong local infrastructure and the impact it has on the economic and community development that occurs within the County. Hopefully, through the passage of this legislation, all levels of government will be informed and encouraged to be leaders in addressing the County’s pressing infrastructure challenges.
