Stories on Channel 5, 19, Ideastream, Scene, and Signal to come, but the cleanup was a huge success. Didn’t get good photos because I was running around with our amazing community members and volunteers, but I snapped this after photo on the way out. So proud of Ward 12.

A press advisory just went out. After another shooting at E 65 and Sebert, community leaders are coming together tomorrow to say enough is enough. If you can, join us for a press conference followed by a community cleanup.

Pssst -- new garbage bins to replace broken cans are coming in the next few months. We've had some confusion from Ward 12 residents about whether they are on the list for a replacement. Reach out to 311 or reach out to the Ward 12 office to confirm. twitter.com/CouncilMaurer/…

One of the different things about my brain now vs 1 year ago, is that now I see some city services situation and I find myself thinking very specific things like “Gosh, I hope Bill is the trouble lineman tonight. He’ll handle this no problem.”

Wow I regret to tell you this film is fantastic and you need to change your Sunday around to see the second screening tomorrow, then DM me so we can talk about it. twitter.com/rebecca__maure…

Who else is seeing Join or Die tonight at CIFF? Robert Putnam’s Bowling Alone x @PeteDDavis about the importance of being part of clubs! Particularly excited since half my job is being part of clubs. I’m probably a top-tier club-joiner and yes I do want you to join them with me.

I want to be very clear that I was fully satisfied by last week’s sprinkling of snow and that whatever is happening this morning is not my fault. Who needs to fess up? twitter.com/rebecca__maure…

I didn’t have “photo op with an Irish alpaca named The Wee One” on my St. Patty’s bingo card, but I’m definitely not mad. Is he Cleveland’s Lil Sebastian??

I owe you all an apology. I’ve been walking around Cleveland for weeks saying “I just want one more decent snowfall before it really becomes spring. You know, so we know winter happened.” My bad!

Save the date! I'm hosting a birthday fundraiser on April 18. Celebrating my first year in office and building for the years ahead. Get tickets here: secure.actblue.com/donate/rebecca…

@amtillie Truly 💜💜💜

I’ll meet your Sopranos and raise you Abbott Elementary. See you at Council at 9am @amtillie twitter.com/amtillie/statu…

So thankful nobody was hurt! I am interested to see if a guardrail is installed. The city has an maddening“3 crashes in 3 years” rule. Sometimes if council members beg we can get one installed after two crashes. But for a reason I’ve never figured out, guardrails are hard to get twitter.com/CARE_1975/stat…

It's our birthday! 🎉 On February 17, 1869, Cleveland Public Library officially opened on the third floor of the Northrup and Harrington Block on West 3rd st. and Superior in downtown #CLEveland. Today, Main and the Louis Stokes Wing are located on Superior at East 6th St. #CLE

Happy Budget Season! Starting today, City Council spends three weeks reviewing the $1.9 billion city budget. One of my goals on council is to make big issues like the budget more accessible to residents — so I teamed up with @SeeYourWords for this great budget primer. Read on!

We have a lot of listening we need to do as a city. I’m grateful for Slavic Village and Ward 12 residents who attended the first neighborhood presentation on the city budget. Thank you to @iHeartSwine for hosting twitter.com/amtillie/statu…

Happening tonight! I think we should be good on seating so I hope to see you there 🙏🏻 twitter.com/rebecca__maure…

Back on board for @CLEforTransit week! I had a 10am, 3pm, and a 6pm here in Slavic Village. I cannot commute downtown like I usually would between meetings. But I needed somewhere to work so I’m hopping on the 16 to get to the Fleet branch of the public library. Smooth riding 💜

@CLEforTransit @KapustaDiamond Truly! I’m really enjoying the Twitter discourse during public transit week blaming the rider. I stopped filming to get up to the stop and wave. But whether the issue was me or the driver, the point is about building a system that makes basic human errors okay 🤷🏼‍♀️

.@rebecca__maurer gets it! These are the kind of challenges that all-purpose riders face every day when relying on @GCRTA. #OhioLovesTransit #TransitEquityDay twitter.com/rebecca__maure…

Not how I wanted to start @CLEforTransit challenge week, but the truth is the 16 bus drove right past me and I missed my chance to get to work on time via bus. Things happen and maybe the driver didn’t see me. I have backup options but not everybody does. High frequency matters! twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@libslehman @iHeartSwine There's not an official RSVP -- we're just hoping the seating availability roughly matches neighborhood interest. See you there!

I'm excited to be hosting the Finance Director for the City of Cleveland at @iHeartSwine next week for a neighborhood discussion of the city budget. I promise to only make 35 jokes about "trimming the fat" or "where's the pork" before calling it quits. See you there!

Thank you, @ADayInTheSlife for the opportunity to serve in this new role. Honored to get to grow as a member of council and serve the residents of Cleveland in as vice chair! twitter.com/ADayInTheSlife…

@meeshrose130 PJs inside out is a long-standing tradition! We used to organize to do that one too. Ice cubes and spoons are new to me -- going to take notes.

We have exciting news -- we're hiring for a summer internship here at the Ward 12 office! See the information below 👇👇👇 business.thinkplexus.org/jobs/info/gove…

It's looking like a week full of snow, Old Brooklyn! With even more on the way mid-week, we would like to share a few facts from @rebecca__maurer about our city's snow plan that may help you be more prepared. ❄️ ☃️ 🌨️

Whew! It has been a *day* on Council. It's sometimes hard for me to update multiple social media channels while, you know, doing my job. But if you want to follow along, I was updating my stories on Instagram @ councilwomanmaurer twitter.com/PB_Cleveland/s…
