I have been reading a lot about Cleveland Ohio.

Cleveland is one of the northern cities hit hard by job migration. Like Detroit and Flint, Cleveland's citizens are coming up with some innovative survival tactics to rebuild their community. I have ranted before about the Tulsa Development Authority holding land in common just to grow Bermuda grass. I think the concept of a "Land Bank"is much more inline with today's realities than the "Development" concept of the 1970's urban renewal. Why does a place have to hit rock bottom, and land revert back to nature before land use becomes a political topic. It is crazy that we have huge discussions about Tulsa's parks and rec centers. But no one every claims we do not have the money to mow or maintain TDA land.
