Stadium site
Use this money to develop the lake. A superhero museum would be unique and draw thousands. Look at how ComicCon transformed San Diego. Imagine a rock hall and a superhero hall. Home of Superman and many movies filmed here. You could make a walking app showing all the areas where movies were made

Browns Stadium
Browns stadium should stay Downtown because it the central location for all sports teams, hotels and food spots as Clevelander you want more eyes and attention downtown not towards the suburbs and other distant locations, the move to brookpark is about nothing but ownership and control and as soon as the novelty wears off that location will be Richfield all over again, plus the waste of dollars to relocate back downtown (if there’s a location). The future is not guaranteed for anyone, keep the fight alive for Downtown and stadium, when downtown wins, the entire city wins!

Browns stadium
I feel the Browns should not move off the shores of Lake Erie and we don't need a dome stadium. Football is meant to be played outdoors not indoors.
I feel that the city needs to crack down on crime and not be soft on it. Downtown Cleveland has a lot to offer . I see no need for the Browns to move out of downtown as there are already food, shopping, museums. I don't feel what the Haslams group wants to build is need or truly wanted. Also I disagree with the state using the unclaimed funds to help in building the unwanted stadium. I feel that money should be used to help the city or any city for that matter in bettering schools, roads, water, sewer and electrical grid across Ohio.
Get them to stop building the new stadium and get it back downtown.

The Cleveland browns leaving
I think Mayor Bib putting on a front and then “settling” is a joke.

Their name is the Cleveland Browns. Not the Brookpark Browns. Not to mention the deal that was settled wasn’t even a good deal? The lakefront will never see development in my lifetime and I’m 27 years old.

I will never vote for Bib after this.

Doom development concept
There are a number of problems with the whole brook park doom concept.

NUMBER 1. - State of Ohio backed a private entity over local control of how NE Ohio develops our region. So much for local control.

NUMBER.2 - Public subsidized financing for a private company to cannibalize monies flowing into core city and small businesses plus fans through higher ticket prices.

NUMBER 3 - potential federal funds to modify sections of 480 and 71 to improve traffic in and out of doom and airport. Couldn't the federal dollars be better utilized for say incentives to Ford to build a modern car assembly facility on the site? Make America Great Again and onshore manufacturing.

NUMBER 4 - The promise of more events. There are none. The doom will cannibalize events from other civic owned facilities.

NUMBER 5 - Fan experience Pre event and actual Event and Post event will change. Choises will be reduced while event ticket prices increase.

NUMBER 6 - site parking capacity is 11 to 18K depending on whether jimmys world brownstown lifestyle center is built. Doom needs spaces for 28K. Is there a plan for overflow demand to park on Snow or Brook Park and transport to doom site?

NUMBER 7 CLE has accomplish wonders turning city into a top notch place for major events, Hollywood productions, and tourism. The city is walkable, plenty of Downtown hotels, restaurants and activities for guests. The doom in brook park doent fit into the model that made CLE a destination city. It's not walkable, difficult for guest to get to and isolated.

NUMBER 8 doom subsidy indirectly subsidizes jimmys world brownstown lifestyle center. It's a terrible idea. Surrounding area median income is bottom quartile and can't support its retail, or restaurants.

NUMBER 9 what city in the world has desired apartment or townhouses or condo sold under luxury label (all new construction is sold as luxury to justify pricing points needed to earn a return on the capital) built next to regions major international airport?

NUMBER 10 late summer and autumn in CLE is best time of year. Doom trades those 8-10 weeks outside watching football for season long indoor to avoid maybe 4 weeks of potential very cool or wet and cold weather. People forget half attendees can't park at doom they will need to walk a mile plus in the rain or cold to and from doom. That will cause the same numbers of no shows

Browns Stadium
If feasible, suggest negotiating the annexation of the proposed new airport location to the City of Cleveland, keeping the team in its rightful municipality.
Kamms Corners Resident
Browns
As a resident of Cleveland and a manager in the sports and entertainment industry (currently at Rocket Arena) it is heartbreaking to lose the stadium to a suburban neighborhood. They will face extreme staffing issues, seeing that a majority of the staff currently does not have they’re own transportation and the city as a whole will be losing millions in income tax revenue from current employees some of which have worked at the stadium since it was built. The mayors deal with owners was a deal with the devil that will haunt this city for decades

Browns Stadium
Keep the Browns downtown, they do not belong in Brookpark!!!

Cleveland
Cleveland is corrupt mayor Bibb and everyone… the mayor does not care about Cleveland and nobody on council does my dad said a long time ago Cuyahoga County is corrupt and they still are

100 million
You better take the 100 million. The NFL is bigger than the City of Cleveland and the Browns and they will pull the franchise. You’ll be left with a dumpster of a stadium on your greatest natural resource that you’ll only be playing high school soccer in.
Get your heads out of your A$$e$.
