The Mayor of South Euclid, Georgine Welo, also serves as the Safety Director for the city. Ward 1 Councilwoman Ruth Gray is the chair of the Safety Committee.

The Police Officers who serve and protect South Euclid deserve better. Their efforts and performance are not what is called into question. The most important aspect of South Euclid's future growth and prosperity depends upon the police and the safety of this community. Confronting this matter is long overdue.
