New residential driveway rules in Cleveland

Andrew Boston
Posted

Hi, I'm at the end of a long rehab of a home in the City of Cleveland (44109) and had a contractor confirmed to put down a gravel driveway for the home. The day he was supposed to begin the project, he tells me he can only do concrete, because the city doesn't allow gravel, that if since I didn't previously have gravel I have to put down a solid surface like asphalt or concrete. Being budget conscious I decided I would just do two concrete strips for the tires and now he tells me the city is saying that is not allowed and it has to be a full driveway, no strips. I'm planning to call tomorrow, but wondering if anyone else has encountered this, and has a work around to doing something more affordable.

Thanks!
