About Cuyahoga Scoreboard
Government Performance and the Local Economy
Cuyahoga Scoreboard's goal is to monitor the cost and performance of county and local governments in Cuyahoga County. Cuyahoga Scoreboard will analyze economic and other data to provide an objective look at the area's progress, prepare public summaries and communicate findings to the public.
The Scoreboard is intended to assist individuals, community organizations and media who may not have the resources or ability to analyze systematically the budgets or performance of existing county or local governments without technical assistance.
The major responsibility of county and local governments is to create a climate for its residents to grow, prosper and live a good life.
