Bainbridge Road Cross Sections from Cuyahoga County Engineer’s Office
The Cuyahoga County Engineer’s Office held a public meeting on September 22, 2009 at Grantwood Golf Course, for the upcoming Bainbridge Road Project in the City of Solon. This meeting was held in an open house format. A feature of open house format public meetings is that it provides a lower probability of unhappy citizens yelling at one or a few public employees.
Jamal Husani, Chief Transportation and Traffic Engineer, Cuyahoga County Engineer’s Office was available to answer questions. Mr. Jamal Husani emphasized an agreement for this project was signed in 1993 and it was difficult to make changes in the designs at the last moment. He added that it was City of Solon that desired the two way temporary road during construction to provide 24/7 access to emergency services and Solon’s City Council supported it by vote.
The primary stakeholders of this project are those residents who live along Bainbridge Road. The secondary stakeholders are those residents who live adjacent to Bainbridge Road but not along Bainbridge Road. Some stakeholders find the proposed two way temporary road through their front yard less safe and the destruction of the trees objectionable and a setback for their home values. Other stakeholders in this 14 million dollar project find comfort in the fact that the two way temporary road provides the desired access to public emergency services.
Unfortunately, many trees will be destroyed as a result of this improvement and this will erode the curb appeal of some homes along Bainbridge Road. I met a Bainbridge Road resident who was concerned that a 40+ year old tree was likely to be adversely impacted because of Bainbridge Road improvements. This residents informed they had watched the sapling grow to a magnificient tree over several decades.
Mr. Husani felt that the Bainbridge Road Project has a good cost to benefit ratio and will not turn out to be as bad as some City of Solon residents think. He said the project will be completed in two phases and in two years.

If functional home design is important to you as a home buyer, you should include Tanglewood Lake subdivision of Bainbridge Township on your shortlist. Tanglewood Lake subdivision was developed approximately in the 70s and 80s, this is the about the same time frame during which the magnificient Walden of Aurora community was developed. The street layout of Tanglewood Lake subdivision is similar to that of Walden, both subdivisions have winding streets and cul-de-sacs. Both subdivisions have unique single family homes, lush trees, a lake and a golf course. The superstructure colors of the homes in both the subdivisions blend into the surrounding landscape.
The centerpiece of Tanglewood Lake subdivision is Lake Tanglewood. Several events are held around the lake. A trampoline is installed in the lake and this is popular among some Tanglewood Lake subdivision residents.
Tanglewood Lake subdivision has about 500 housing units. According to a long time and happy Tanglewood Lake subdivision resident, the single family homes are functional and have a “good skeleton” but some home buyers might find some units to be just a bit dated, the dated home elements can be remodeled to individual preference.
According to Tanglewood Lake subdivision website, an added advantage of living in Tanglewood Lake subdivision is,
the Tanglewood Water Division (TWD), our community water supply, which is owned by the Tanglewood Lake homeowners. Most of the homes in Bainbridge have only untreated well water and septic tank systems. Tanglewood Lake is the only community in Bainbridge with a full municipal-type water production and distribution system, a full complement of fire hydrants that meet all insurance requirements, and even a full emergency backup power system providing for uninterrupted full pressure water service.
