Description

"Councilman Henry Sinkiewicz John Pilch" -- photo verso.

City leaders and politicians followed the lead of Cleveland Press reporter Betty Klaric and pushed to clean up the region’s natural resources and hold polluters accountable. Here, councilmen hold a piece of cloth stained with water pollution. Sinkiewicz and others would also bring legislation to separate stormwater and sewage lines to reduce the pollution to the river and lake.
