RECREATION To increase efficiency, a proposed new mechanical storage building at the Beachwood Family Aquatic Center (BFAC) would provide on-site storage for chemicals and related equipment which are now stored on the south side of town. Plans to relocate concerts and events to an outdoor amphitheater would provide accessible programming space outside the confines of the BFAC. BUSINESS DISTRICT IMPROVEMENTS • changeable-copy sign(s) at City Hall to enhance communications with residents. • The development of area-wide retention basins in Commerce Park to functionally and aesthetically enhance the area as part of a Commerce Park revitalization program. • A cul-de-sac on Highpoint Road to provide access to a 32.52 acre land-locked parcel located east of Highpoint Road. • A public road to connect Mercantile and Harvard Roads within Chagrin Highlands to strengthen and unify our business district. • Signage at I-271 interchanges and bridges would enhance the Beachwood image and sense of place with a physical landscape that clearly delineates when you are in Beachwood. “Public work sessions will be scheduled to discuss each component in detail.
