  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Norman Krumholz on the 
occasion of his 70th birthday.
  Norman Krumholz has been a wise adviser and dedicated public servant 
to Cleveland, OH. Norm was the planning director for the city of 
Cleveland from 1969 to 1979. His constant presence at the helm of the 
city's planning department under three separate administrations was an 
incredible feat. It testifies to the quality of his vision and of his 
work.
  Norm is a great teacher. He is an outstanding professor in the Levin 
College of Urban Affairs, Cleveland State University. He is a published 
author of many professional articles, in such prestigious journals as 
the ``Journal of the American Planning Association,'' the ``Journal of 
Planning Education and Research,'' and the ``Journal of Urban 
Affairs.'' He is also the author of a book, ``Making Equity Planning 
Work: Leadership in the Public Sector,'' published by Temple University 
Press.
  Norm's contribution has been recognized by his peers. He served as 
the president of the American Planning Association and received the APA 
Award for Distinguished Leadership and the Prize of Rome from the 
American Academy in Rome.
  Mr. Speaker, Norman Krumholz left his mark on the city of Cleveland. 
I had the distinct pleasure of his expertise during my administration. 
I am grateful for his contribution, and Cleveland is a better city for 
it.
