Cleveland launches inclusive development with minority leadership initiative
In a recent government meeting, officials discussed a significant development project set to span a decade, which will provide organizations with access to meeting spaces within the building. The project emphasizes sustainability, with the developer committing to utilize Cleveland Public Power as the preferred electric supplier.

A key highlight of the initiative is the introduction of a mentor-protege program aimed at fostering diversity in construction management. The project will feature a minority female construction manager in a leadership role, who will also mentor a protege, enhancing opportunities for underrepresented groups in the industry.

City officials clarified that while they are supporting the project through commercial tax abatements, no direct financial checks will be issued to the developer. This approach aims to balance community benefits with fiscal responsibility, ensuring that the project contributes positively to the local economy while promoting inclusivity and sustainability.
