Avon acknowledges Walton Hills notice on Cleveland Clinic relocation; Mayor says Avon's expansion separate
Summary
Avon received a required notice from Walton Hills about a proposed CRA and a possible relocation of 11 Cleveland Clinic employees; Mayor Bryan Jensen said Avon's Cleveland Clinic campus expansion is separate and Avon has already exceeded that hiring number this year.
Mayor Bryan Jensen told Council the City had received a "Notice of Relocation" from the Village of Walton Hills regarding a proposed Community Reinvestment Area (CRA) for a company planning a Cleveland Clinic Foundation facility. The filing indicated a potential movement of 11 employees from Avon's Cleveland Clinic location as part of an initial phase, but Jensen emphasized that Avon's ongoing campus expansions — a second bed tower, emergency department expansion and other facilities — are separate matters.
Jensen said Avon's Cleveland Clinic facility has already exceeded that hiring number during the current year and characterized the Walton Hills filing as a consolidation of operations from multiple locations into a single new facility rather than a direct replacement of Avon's campus activity. Council had no questions recorded on the notice at the work session.
