Shaker Heights Poised to Become City in Cuyahoga County
Shaker Heights, once a village with 1666 residents in 1920, now plans to shed its village status and become the fifth city in Cuyahoga County. Officials expect a city hall site and a move toward a city manager form of government after the 1930 census and fall election. The surge in population to over 15,000 is tied to transit, schools, shops, and churches.
