Sunshine Law violation lawsuit filed against Cuyahoga County Public Library
9:00 PM
On 9/22/15 Attorney David M. Lynch filed a suit in Common Pleas Court against the Cuyahoga County Public Library Board on behalf of the Save the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Mansion Library Committee based on Sunshine Law violations. The complaint lists 12 violations and can be read on the Common Pleas Court docket.
Citizens of our county have great affection for all their libraries and Cuyahoga County Public Library (CCPL) provides many wonderful resources for the public.
However, the people who run the Cuyahoga County Public Library are not subject to oversight. Unlike school board members or members of city councils, county library board members are not elected.
The Save the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Mansion Library Committee tried every means available to bring the Library Board and Director to the table to talk about the plans for the Telling Mansion. Telling Mansion was the home of the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Public Library for more than 60 years, is an Ohio Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Telling Mansion could have been fully renovated, including highest quality ADA upgrades, for $5 million. Instead the Library Board is spending $12.6 million to build a new library for a community with shrinking population and declining income, mirroring Cuyahoga County trends.
Despite strong community protest, the Cuyahoga County Public Library Board sold Telling Mansion, transferring this public wealth into private hands.
In the process of seeking compromise about the Telling Mansion, the Committee learned how unfairly many other communities were treated:
• Mayfield Village residents tried to put a referendum on the ballot about the Library’s planned land swap for the site of the new library.
• Parma citizens fought hard but lost their efforts to keep their neighborhood library branches
• Richmond Heights branch remains a tiny storefront with only 10 computers, but new buildings were constructed for 8 other communities and 10 branches were renovated and expanded.
• School boards in Warrensville and Mayfield were informed, not asked, about CCPL libraries being moved out of buildings the school boards owned.

CCPL’s $110 million capital projects reconfigured communities, tore neighborhoods apart, left empty buildings behind and took valuable land off the tax rolls.
Even though almost every penny that supports the Library comes from taxpayers, the Library excluded citizens from meaningful discussion and decisions.
The Cuyahoga County Public Library was able to exclude the public only by violating the Ohio Sunshine Law.
