Issues

Regional Cooperation

Jason believes that working with neighboring cities will lead to improved services and cost savings. Jason has been a leading voice for regionalism since he advocated for Cleveland Heights and University Heights to share a salt storage facility in 2007.  As a direct result of Jason’s leadership, Cleveland Heights and University Heights have been and continue to share the Cleveland Heights salt storage facility. As well, Jason made regional cooperation a centerpiece of his 2009 City Council campaign. Jason’s efforts have led to Cleveland Heights joining R.I.T.A. (Regional Income Taxing Authority), joint street improvements bidding (Cleveland Heights, Shaker Heights and University Heights) and others.

Diversity

Cleveland Heights is the most diverse city in Ohio. Every community is represented in our city. Jason Stein believes that our diversity is our strength. Jason will protect the rights of everyone and promote understanding and inclusion.

Collaboration

Jason graduated from Boulevard Elementary, Wiley Middle School and Heights High. He understands the importance of working with our schools to promote our public school system. Jason will collaborate with the CH-UH schools to promote and benefit our schools, students and community.

Accountable and Transparent Government

The internet is changing our lives and making knowledge available at the click of a button. Government should utilize and incorporate the internet to make itself more accountable and transparent. Jason will bring accountability and transparency to Cleveland Heights City Council because he believes that everyone should have access to their government.
