• Strongsville's five-year budget for waste hauling, recyclable processing to rise by 38 percent (cleveland.com) — Strongsville’s trash and recycling contract with Republic Services will jump 38% over the next five years, but the city says residents won’t see a separate fee. City officials opted against costlier automated pickup, will keep the Foltz Parkway transfer station open seven days a week, and are pressing Republic to address complaints about nails, tire damage, and spilled debris on neighborhood streets.
