Cleveland Water replaces 100% of lead service lines to day care centers; interior work remains
The Ever Changing Educational Center operates out of a 110-year-old tan brick church on St. Clair Ave. and serves as a day care center for 12 Cleveland kids. Its director, Valentina Randle, has decades of experience working with children in the Forest Hills neighborhood, and the center has a top 5-star rating under Ohio’s Step Up to Quality standards.
Randle knew her building was old, and she wanted to make sure that her kids were drinking safe, lead-free water.
So when she received an email from Cleveland Water offering to test the building’s main service line – that’s the pipe leading from the public water main to the building – for lead and pay for any necessary replacements, she immediately took advantage of the opportunity.
