Parma Heights council authorizes written concurrence to allow library and family services lease
Summary
Council unanimously suspended rules and approved Ordinance No. 2026‑50 to provide written concurrence so Cuyahoga County Public Library and the Centers for Families and Children may execute a lease agreement. The move was approved by unanimous roll call after a motion to suspend the rules.
Parma Heights City Council voted unanimously on May 26 to advance Ordinance No. 2026‑50, providing council's prior concurrence in writing so that the Cuyahoga County Public Library and the Centers for Families and Children can execute a lease agreement.
Clerk Barbara Allen read the ordinance as a first reading. Councilwoman DeSouza moved to suspend the rules; Councilwoman Maruschak seconded the motion. The suspension passed on a unanimous roll call and council then moved the ordinance forward for passage, again recording a unanimous vote.
No questions, amendments or debate were recorded in the meeting minutes during the ordinance's first‑reading appearance. The ordinance authorizes written concurrence only; the text read into the record did not specify lease terms, financial commitments or a start date for occupancy.
By approving the concurrence in writing, council cleared the way for the county library and the Centers for Families and Children to finalize and execute the lease between those two organizations.
