🚵🏻 Mentor-on-the-Lake Awarded $135K Grant for Walking, Biking and Roadway Planning
Mentor-on-the-Lake Secures $135K Grant for Transportation Planning
Mentor-on-the-Lake has received a $135,000 grant from the Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency’s Transportation for Livable Communities Initiative to develop a Multimodal Facilities Plan.
Funded through the State Transportation Block Grant program, the award will cover 90 percent of eligible planning costs during State Fiscal Year 2027. The project was selected for supporting NOACA’s livability goals and the regional weNEO2050+ plan.
City officials said the plan will help carry out the recently adopted Comprehensive Plan by identifying upgrades for walking, biking, and connectivity. It will also explore ways to preserve neighborhood character, protect green space, and improve access to parks, business districts, and the lakefront.
Public input will help shape priorities and future improvements.
Leaders said the effort should improve safety, mobility, quality of life, and sustainability while boosting chances for future infrastructure funding.
Early ideas include walking trails, bike paths, and streetscape upgrades along Andrews Road, with stronger connections to Mentor and potential business growth.

📰 Mentor Police Connect With Broadmoor Students During School Visit
Mentor Police
Mentor Police
TThe Mentor Police Department recently spent time with students at Broadmoor School, creating a memorable opportunity to connect with some of the city’s youngest residents. During the visit, officers gave students an up-close look at the role of law enforcement and the importance of community partnerships.
Students learned about safety practices, teamwork, and the daily responsibilities that come with serving as a police officer. The hands-on experience offered children a chance to ask questions, explore police equipment, and better understand how officers help protect the community.
Events like this continue to strengthen the bond between local police and families while inspiring trust, curiosity, and respect among future generations.

🏘️ The Value of a Real Estate Agent When It’s Time to Sell Your Home
Many homeowners wonder whether hiring a real estate agent is worth the commission. With fees often totaling 5% to 6% of the home’s sale price, some sellers consider handling the process themselves. However, experienced agents can often help sellers secure stronger offers, avoid costly mistakes, and simplify what can be a demanding transaction.
One of the most important jobs an agent performs is pricing the home correctly. Setting the asking price too high can scare away buyers, while pricing too low may leave money on the table. Agents use recent comparable sales, neighborhood trends, and firsthand market knowledge to determine a competitive price.
Marketing is another major advantage. In today’s housing market, buyers usually begin their search online. Agents coordinate professional photos, virtual tours, online listings, yard signs, open houses, and advertising campaigns to attract qualified buyers. They also place homes on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which greatly expands visibility to other agents and buyers.
Beyond marketing, agents help screen buyers. They verify whether interested parties are preapproved for financing, reducing the chance of deals collapsing later. This saves sellers time and helps focus attention on serious prospects.
Negotiation is another key role. Agents guide sellers through offers, counteroffers, inspection requests, appraisal concerns, and contract terms. Their experience can help protect a seller’s bottom line and keep transactions moving toward closing.
For sellers looking to save money, discount brokerages and limited-service options are available. These alternatives may reduce commission costs, but they often provide fewer hands-on services than a traditional full-service agent.
Ultimately, while selling a home independently is possible, many homeowners choose agents for their pricing expertise, marketing reach, buyer screening, and negotiation skills.

⚾ Ramírez Powers Cleveland Past Orioles With Two-Homer
José Ramírez led Cleveland to another series win over Baltimore on April 19, hitting two home runs in an 8-4 Guardians victory that secured three of four games in the series.
Ramírez homered in the fourth and fifth innings off Trevor Rogers, extending his franchise record for multi-homer games to 28. He also passed Earl Averill for second place in Cleveland history with 138 home runs at home.
The Guardians pulled away with a four-run fourth inning. Juan Brito hit a two-run double, and Brayan Rocchio added an RBI single as Cleveland built a 5-0 lead. Rocchio finished with three hits and three RBIs, adding a two-run single in the eighth.
Baltimore answered in the fifth when Taylor Ward hit a three-run homer, his first as an Oriole. Dylan Beavers later drove in another run, but the Orioles could not get closer.
Matt Festa earned the win after escaping a bases-loaded jam in the fifth, and Peyton Pallette followed with two perfect innings.
Cleveland improved to 38-21 against Baltimore since 2017. Ramírez is batting .342 with five homers over his last 11 games.
⚾ TinCaps Use Big Seventh Inning to Defeat Captains 9-6
Fort Wayne scored six runs in the seventh inning to pull away from Lake County for a 9-6 win over the Captains on April 19 at Classic Auto Group Park.
Reliever Michael Kennedy took the loss after allowing six runs on six hits in two innings. The TinCaps hit two home runs off Kennedy, including a three-run blast, as his ERA rose to 9.00.
Guardians 2025 first-round pick Jace LaViolette hit a two-run homer, his second of the season. Dean Curley extended his hitting streak to eight games with a two-run triple and now has seven RBIs. The Captains had six hits, six walks and seven strikeouts, but went 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position.
Starter Franklin Gómez gave up two first-inning runs before settling in to strike out five and walk one over five innings.
Lake County fell to 7-8 after splitting the series with Fort Wayne. The Captains visit West Michigan for six games beginning April 21.
