CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — The City of Cleveland Heights is considering a new solution to a problem that’s plagued a homeowner for years. The city will offer to buy out a property repeatedly hit by vehicles at Taylor Road and Fairmount Boulevard.

“I like it here. I love my neighbors; I love the neighborhood. I’m established, I have relationships,” he said. “Why would I move?” News 5 has reported crashes at the home since 2012. In 2021, the News 5 Investigators highlighted Gall’s handmade barrier and several spraypainted signs that said, “Where’s my guardrail?” It was shortly after a car barreled into the corner of the house and caused nearly $40,000 in damage.“My girlfriend, she lives in Brecksville, refuses to come here. She doesn’t want to spend time here because she’s uncomfortable with it,” Gall said.

During a city council meeting Monday, City Administrator Danny Williams told council members about the next possible solution. “We’d decide what to do with the property. But at least there wouldn’t be someone in the house who could be potentially harmed every time there’s an accident,” Thomas said.“What’s it worth? To me, it’s worth everything,” he said. “And they’re going to have to come up with everything in order to convince me to move.”
