New Community Message Board Approved for Euclid Avenue

A conceptual rendering of the new electronic community message board set to be constructed at Euclid Avenue and Chardon Road.

At its first meeting in May, Euclid City Council approved an ordinance authorizing the construction of a new community message board at Euclid Avenue and Chardon Road.  The ordinance was sponsored by Euclid Avenue area councilpersons Stephana Caviness, Brian Moore and Marcus Epps.

The new Euclid Avenue message board will replace the existing board, which has deteriorated after many years of service.

Similar to the community message board in Downtown Euclid, the new message board on Euclid Avenue will feature an electronic screen that will be controlled remotely.  This reduces the staff time required to change the message board, and allows the city to update messages more quickly and share multiple messages on rotation at a given time.      

A contract for the construction of the new message board is expected to be awarded in August with construction set to begin in early Fall of this year.

This important community improvement project will be funded through the City's federal Community Development Block Grant program allocation.
