Message from Cleveland Heights Mayor Jason Stein

Leave a Comment

Dear Residents,

Thank you for all the steps you have been taking to keep healthy and minimize the spread of the COVID 19 virus. Staying at home as much as possible, per the Governor’s order, and keeping six feet distance between non-family members, will make a difference to your health, as well to the health of others in our community.

Today I am requesting another precaution to help contain the spread of the COVID 19 virus in Cleveland Heights. Starting immediately, I am asking each resident if you have any visitors coming in from states that have been hard hit by the virus, such as NY, NJ and FL, or if you’ve traveled or recently hosted guests within the last fourteen days, I am asking you to voluntarily self-quarantine for 14 days.

New York, New Jersey and Florida have been some of the states hit hardest by this dangerous virus. Other states that I am also concerned about are CA, IL, LA, MA, MI, PA and WA. I’d like to ask for the same voluntary 14 day quarantine for you, any family members that may have been present, and for those individuals traveling here from those states.

Staying at home, socially distancing, regular hand-washing are just a few important steps we must take to eliminate this virus. Using good judgement, and also self-quarantining when you may have come into contact with higher-risk people are also critical components in keeping healthy.

Remember, you can go out and enjoy our beautiful parks and walking/biking paths, but you must keep six feet distance from non-family members. Take a walk, walk your dog, work in your gardens and enjoy the nicer days we’ve been experiencing. Please stay off the playground equipment as it is not sanitized, and our basketball and tennis courts are closed for the time being.

Beachwood and University Heights have issued similar requests. If we all work together we can minimize our own risk of exposure and the overall health and safety of our families and our community.

I thank you in advance for your cooperation. I wish you good health.

Mayor Jason Stein

Re: Supply of Kosher for Passover Milk Caps for Lowfat Milk

To whom it may concern,

Please note that due to the current order volume for milk, there will be some shipments of lowfat milk (blue cap) that will have plain caps without any Kosher for Passover designation. They will still have the word פסח printed in the date code and they are certified as Kosher for Passover.

Feel free to contact us with any questions.

Yours truly,

Rabbi Tzvi Rosen
Kashrus Administrator
