Kathy Telban
Kathy Telban is the founder and chief outcome strategist at iSOLVit, an organizational effectiveness consulting and services firm. She was elected to the Mayfield Heights city council for a four-year term starting in 2024.
“I’ve always been involved in communities where I’ve lived, I’ve lobbied at the state and federal levels, and I have a business background; being a councilperson is a good use of my skills,” Telban says.
A Mayfield Heights resident for 22 years, Telban plans to age in place. She’s determined to ensure the city supports residents throughout their entire lives.
Telban is also committed to making sure residents are informed and have input, and that there is full transparency.
King Miner
King Miner is one year into his four-year term. He chairs the Finance Committee and co-chairs the Public Works and Service Committee, using his professional background as an accountant and nonprofit leader to bolster the city’s long-term planning and financial stability. A 12-year resident of Mayfield Heights, Miner didn’t initially plan to run for office — until someone encouraged him to consider it and his wife motivated him to channel his passion for helping people into public service.
His goals are to address infrastructure needs, ease economic strain and keep residents informed. “The diversity and the way the community supports each other is a blessing,” Miner says. “City Council is an opportunity to elevate my ability to help people.”
Matt Metyk
Matt Metyk was selected to fill an outgoing council member’s seat in October 2024. He will serve this year and campaign for the seat in November 2025.
Metyk has served on several committees, including the steering committee for the Aquatic and Community Center, Beautification Day, Unity Days and as vice chair of the Board of Zoning Appeals. Currently, he is the chair of the Building Committee. He has extensive experience in architecture, urban design, civil and landscape engineering and environmental design. He hopes to lend a new perspective on infrastructure issues.
“My goal is to get more involved with day-to-day activities while continuing my current commitments on the various committees and boards,” Metyk says.
