SUMMARY:Free the Falls Progress Report
DESCRIPTION:Members of the public are invited to attend a community update on the process to remove a 420-foot-wide\, 60-foot-tall dam within Gorge Metro Park. The dam is one of the largest unresolved impediments to restoring the water quality of the Cuyahoga River and its removal will improve river ecology\, create recreational opportunities and drive economic benefits within the local community. \nOn Tuesday\, April 28 from 6 – 7:30 p.m. at the Akron-Summit County Public Library – Main Library (60 S. High St.\, Akron)\, partners will present a progress report. The meeting will begin at 6 p.m.\, with doors opening at 5:30 p.m. Before the meeting\, enjoy refreshments and browse Free the Falls t-shirts for sale. \nParking is available at the garage at 40 S. High St. or the surface lot at 71 S. High St. Parking in the High and Market Deck is free after 6 p.m. on weekdays\, with one free hour available through validation at the library welcome desk. Additional parking information can be found online. \nASL interpretation (English to ASL) will be provided during the meeting. The meeting will also be live-streamed and available for later viewing at youtube.com/summitmetroparks. \nNow in its tenth year\, the dam removal project is managed by a group of partners that includes the City of Akron\, City of Cuyahoga Falls\, FirstEnergy\, County of Summit\, Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District\, Summit County Council\, Summit Metro Parks\, The University of Akron\, Ohio EPA\, Ohio Lake Erie Commission and U.S. EPA. \nLearn more about the effort to remove the Gorge Dam and sign up for email updates at bitl.ly/freethefalls.
