A Cuyahoga County judge has dealt the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority a significant blow in the agency's push to swiftly complete land assembly and start moving dirt on the hillside atop Irishtown Bend.On Thursday, June 30, Common Pleas Court Judge John Sutula granted a preliminary injunction in favor of Tony and Bobby George, the father-and-son owners of a small parcel at the northern end of the hillside. The decision, an early win for the Georges in an ongoing legal fight, blocks the port from advancing an effort to take the property through eminent domain.
