Wonder what this is all about? I just called my bro since Bedford Heights is right next door, and he hasn't heard anything about it. Really, 4 days before his inauguration he's going to a small town in Ohio in what looks to be below zero weather? This has me discomboobulated.
Bedford Heights officials are making plans for President-elect Barack Obama to visit Friday.
Federal law enforcement officials contacted the suburb's police chief, Tim Katavsky today, said Mayor Fletcher D. Berger.

Berger said that Obama visited the Cleveland suburb during the campaign, but no president-elect or president has visited the municipality during his more than 30 years in there.
