[Ordinance C-67-21 Approve the Rezoning of 145.6± acres located North of S.R. 665 and East of S.R. 104 from SF-1 to PUD-R with Zoning Text. Second reading and public hearing.]

PRESIDENT. FIRST ORDINANCES C 67 21, THE NORTONS FOR THE REZONING OF 145.6 PLUS OR MINUS ACRES LOCATED NORTH OF STATE ROAD, 60. 6 65 IN EAST OF STATE ROAD ONE OF FOUR FROM S F 12 P U. D. R WITH ZONING TEXT. FOUR WE START ONCE AGAIN, THIS ORDINANCES FOR ZONING AND ZONING TEXT DESIGNATION ON THIS PROPERTY. POSED CHANGES. THE PROPERTY IS BECAUSE PRESIDENT SAYS FROM SF ONE DESIGNATION TO PVR IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE LARGE SIZES. ON ON THERE THAT WE'RE VARIANCES FROM SINGLE FAMILY. THERE. PLEASE RESTRICT YOUR COMMENTS TO THE ORDINANCE ON HAND AND THE ZONING. TEXAS IS NOT A DEVELOPMENT PLAN BY ANY MEANS. KYLE WE HAVE A SUBSTITUTE ZONING TAX DATED 12 10 21 IN YOUR PACKAGE CONSOLE. HAS RED AND BLUE STRIKEOUTS. THERE'S ALSO A LOT OF READ A MEMO FROM THE PLANNING OFFICER TO POINT OUT THE CHANGES ON THERE. SO KYLE, WOULD YOU PLEASE GO BRIEFLY OVER THE RADISH FEET ON THERE BEFORE WE. HAVE TO SUBSTITUTE THE NEW MONEY, BUT. THANK YOU, MR SHOCKEY. YES THAT THE PLANE COMMISSION ON NOVEMBER 2ND APPLICANTS SUBMITTED OR PLAY COMMISSION HEARD A CASE FOR THE RE ZONING OF THE PROPERTY AND THAT THAT MEETING PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION OF DISAPPROVAL TO CITY COUNCIL. AND SINCE SINCE THAT TIME, THE APPLICANT HAS WORKED WITH THE STAFF TO REALLY REVISED ZONING TEXT, REALLY, WITH THE EFFORT TO MEET THE STIPULATIONS AS CATHOLIC COUNCIL SET FORTH. ON THEIR FORMATIVE MOMENT PLAN. PREVIOUSLY APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL. SO REALLY, WHAT THEY DID IS THEY SUBSTITUTE MAP. THERE'S NEW ILLUSTRATED MAP. I THINK THERE'S A SHOULD BE ON THE ON THE SCREEN. SO THIS IS THEIR NEW UNLESS SORT OF MAD. BUT THEY ALSO DID AS THEY REDUCE THE DENSITY SO PRIOR TO THIS NEW TEXT. THERE WAS 397 UNITS PROPOSED THAT HAS NOW GONE DOWN TO 366 UNITS. SO REALLY, THE DENSITY WENT DOWN FROM 2.75 TO 2.53, AND THAT'S ALL KIND OF NOTED ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS , THIS MEMBER OF CITY COUNCIL. ALSO, THE DEVELOPER MADE A COMMITMENT TO WORK WITH THE CITY. ON TRAFFIC COMING, MAKE SURE THERE'S NO TRAFFIC SPEEDING THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AS A CUT THROUGH WITH THAT WITHIN THAT AREA. THERE'S SOME OTHER MINOR

[00:05:05]

STUFF, AND THERE'S WELL BUT THOSE ARE REALLY THE KEY POINTS TO IT REALLY AGAIN. THEY WANT TO COMPLY WITH THE STIPULATION SET FORTH BY PLAYING NEARBY CITY COUNCIL. ON C 26 21 TO 7 FT LOTS . THE CENTRAL PARK, THE TRAFFIC STUDY, TRAFFIC SAYS NOT QUITE DONE, BUT THERE'S BACK AND FORTH ONGOING EVEN EVEN THIS WEEK WITH OUR ENGINEER, SO IT'S STILL ONGOING. BUT AGAIN ORIGINALLY 397. NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 305 SINGLE FAMILY. THAT CONDO COUNTS STILL REMAINS AT 92. SO IT'S REALLY COMPARATIVE COMPARABLE TO WHAT WE'VE SEEN IN THE AREA OF THE DNC IS LESS THAN WHAT WE HAVE AND SOME OF THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS, ESPECIALLY TO THE NORTH AND SOME OTHER SURROUNDED NEIGHBORHOODS. DURING OUR REVIEW , WE FOUND IT WAS IN COMPLIANCE WITH 2050. SO WE MADE RECOMMENDATION FROM A POLICY POLICY PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE IT REALLY IS SIMILAR TO OTHER APPROVED DEVELOPMENTS IN THE AREA. SO. WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT ZONING. WHAT WE'RE REALLY TRYING TO DO IS TO LOOK YEAH. I CAN AFRAID MOVEMENT THAT MIGHT FALL THROUGH. IS THAT BETTER? THANK YOU. SO REALLY, THAT'S THE KIND OF CRITERIA LOOKED AT WITH THE ZONING. WE'LL LOOK AT THE LANE USE OF THE AREA, SO WE WANTED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE POLICIES WERE OF THE CITY. SO LAW THAT COMES FROM 2050 WHEN WE ASKED THE RESIDENTS WHAT. WHAT SHOULD THE FUTURE LEADERS TO BE IN THIS AREA, AND THAT AREA WAS. DENOTED AS ESSENTIALLY LIKE A TYPICAL TYPE OF DENSITY DEVELOPMENT WE HAVE IN THE COMMUNITY, SO WHEN THEY PROPOSED. OTHER REVISION AND SAID THAT DENSITY AT 2.5 MINUTES PER ACRE REALLY IS IN LINE WITH WHAT WE SEE IN OTHER OTHER PARTS OF OUR COMMUNITY, SO WE FELT IT WAS. COMPLIANT WITH THE POLICY. AND AGAINST ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT HIM. WELL, LET'S LET'S SUBSTITUTE THE ZONING TEXT FIRST, AND THEN WE CAN. HAVE QUESTIONS FOR KARL AND I MOVED THE RISK. WE'RE TALKING. I JUSTE YOU MAKE YOUR MOTION JUST IF YOU COULD SPEAK TO THAT, WHEN AND I ALWAYS THINK THAT THERE'S A CERTAIN SENSE OF APPREHENSION FOR THE PUBLIC. WHEN THERE IS THIS SUBSTITUTION THAT OCCURS BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND READING, CAN YOU ADDRESS THAT IN TERMS OF ITS COMMONALITY WHEN EFFECTIVELY THE FIRST READING? THAT WHAT WAS PUBLISHED WILL NOT MATCH ONCE WE'VE MADE THIS SUBSTITUTION. THIS HAPPENS ON OCCASION. I WON'T SAY IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY , BUT IT HAPPENS ON OCCASION AND EARLY. WHAT IT IS, IS A CONTINUATION OF THE BACK AND FORTH APPLICANT WANTED TO PURSUE WHAT THEY FELT WAS THE BEST. BEST THING FOR THEIR PRODUCT.

BUT ONCE THEY RECEIVE THE DISAPPROVAL RECOMMENDATION FROM PLAYING COMMISSION EARLIER, I THINK IT KIND OF SET THE TONE THAT KNOW THAT. THE CITY EXPECTS TO COMPLY WITH THOSE REGULATIONS, SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN OFTEN, BUT. I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH FOREVER GOING BECAUSE OF. WE DO A GOOD JOB THERE, AND WE EVER HAD THEM BEFORE TO NOTIFY RESIDENTS. WE WOULD HEAR WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING. SO WE DO EVERYTHING WE CAN NOT TO WORK WITH THE SILO. SO I MEAN, IT'S NOT IDEAL, BUT STILL, I THINK IT'S UH IT'S STILL. A GOOD PROCESS IN MY MIND. WE DO THE BEST WE CAN SO OVER THE HOME. AND MADAM PRESIDENT JUST TO REMIND EVERYBODY THE ORIGINAL ZONING TEXT WAS WHAT WENT THROUGH, AS KYLE SAID INTO THE PLANNING COMMISSION. BUT WHEN THE STIPULATION ALL OF THE SINGLE FAMILY LIVES B 70 FT.

ZONING TEXT DID NOT REFLECT THAT AT THE TIME. SO CONSEQUENTLY, THAT. CHANGE IN ITSELF CAUSED A CHANGE IN THE ZONING TEXT. AND ALSO THEN OTHER OTHER THINGS HAVE BEEN MENTIONED IN THE ZONING CHECKS THAT WERE CHANGES AS FAR AS SETBACKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, ONCE AGAIN, JUST TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS. THIS IS NOT THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN. THIS IS SIMPLY FOR ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ON HERE. THIS JUST. MAP THAT YOU SEE IN FRONT OF YOU IMPLANT THERE. VERY GOOD. JUST MAKE SURE COUNCILS WHERE WE FELT COMFORTABLE BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT. INSERTING A NEW TYPE OF USE THEIR ACTUALLY REDUCING THE DENSITY. SO IT WASE WOULD KIND OF RAISE THE FLAG ABOUT WITH CONCERNS OF OH, MY GOSH, THEY'RE THEY'RE WANTING TO DO SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

THIS IS REALLY JUST LOOKING AT LOT SIZES. NOT REALLY THAT THE ALLOCATION. ABOUT THE USE. IF I MADE A CELEBRITY, I THINK THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I THINK IT'S TRICKY IS THAT IN THE WHEREAS OF THE ORDINANCE ITSELF, IT SAYS THAT. THE PLANNING COMMISSION HAS DENIED THE REZONING ON NOVEMBER 2ND AND EFFECTIVELY THEY WEREN'T LOOKING AT THE SAME DOCUMENTS. THAT'S

[00:10:03]

WHERE I THINK THAT IN TERMS OF THE PAPER TRAIL THAT IT CREATES IT BECOMES DIFFICULT. MR BARRY.

TO GIVE EXCEPT THIS CHANGE AND THEN OPEN UP DISCUSSION, ALL RIGHT? I MOVED TO REPLACE THE ZONING TEXT DOCUMENT WITH THE ONE DATED DECEMBER 10TH. 2021. SECOND. DID YOU SAY THAT? YES.

THIS IS HELP. YES MR HOLT? YES MR BARRY? YES, MR SHARKEY? YES? BAIRD DID YOU WANT TO TALK TO MR RUSH? YEAH, I JUST SO, MR RAJ, WHEN THIS WAS BROUGHT IN HOW LONG AGO WAS THIS BROUGHT INTO THE CITY? DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN THIS WAS ANNEXED? ANNEXATION? I BELIEVE. I MEAN, MY GUESS IS 2000 AND 4 2000 AND THREE TIME PERIOD THERE WAS AN ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT PROPOSED BACK IN 2000 AND FOUR OR FIVE AS WELL REFER TO AS TRANSFER MATTER. IN THAT DEVELOPMENT HAS A SIMILAR LAYOUT. AS WHAT WE'RE SEEING TODAY, REALLY, THE LAYOUT NO MATTER WHO IS DEVELOPING AS WELL, HAVE A SAME FUEL BECAUSE OF THAT STREAM CORRIDOR. I MEAN , THE SITE IS THE SITE THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE TOPOGRAPHY DURING REGIONAL FLOW, THE WAYS GOING FLOWS. THERE'S NOT A WHOLE LOT IN TERMS OF VARIATIONS OF DESIGN YOU CAN DO. TO MAKE SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT YOU SEE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT THERE. GERMAN MAN. YES SO IF THIS REMAINED S F ONE ZONING WHAT COULD BE BUILT THERE. AND WHAT ARE THE PARAMETERS OF WHAT COULD BE BUILT? THERE S F ONE ZONING REPORTS OF 20,000 FT SQUARE FOOT LOT. SO, ESSENTIALLY, WE DID THIS MATTER EARLIER TODAY. YOU CAN. JUST OFF THE CUFF ROUGH ESTIMATE YOU CAN PROBABLY DEVELOP IN BETWEEN 182 100 LOTS UNDER THE S EPISODE IN CLASSIFICATION. I WILL ALSO NOTE THAT THERE'S NO SUBDIVISION ANY GROUP CITY ZONE SF ONE. WHEN WE DID OUR ANALYSIS WHEN I LOOK AT THE TOWNSHIP SUBDIVISION FOR COMPARABLE SO THAT TELLS YOU I MEAN, THIS IS NOT TYPICAL SF ONES ALWAYS NOT TYPICAL. IN TERMS OF MAKING IT COST INFECTED TO DEVELOP AT THAT. DENSITY WOULD BE 180 UNIT. 152 100.

PENDING ON HOW THE LOTS THOUGH IN THIS SIZE WITH THE 70 FT LOTS WOULD BE MORE CONSISTENT WITH SF TO FUND NOT MISTAKEN. UNDER SO THAT'S THE TYPICAL. BUT THE REASON WAS PLANNED. UNIT DEVELOPMENT IS BECAUSE OF THE FREESTANDING CONDOS. MM. INCLUDED IN THIS PLAN. SO THAT MAKES IT MULTI USE. THAT'S WHY THEY HAVE TO, AND I THINK YOU'LL SEE WHEN WE DO GET THAT NEW ZONING CODE. COMPLETED IN THAT WE WILL. NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF THING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH WITH CHANGING TO PEE YOU DRS. SO MANY TIMES. TO DEAL WITH VARIANCES AND OTHER THINGS THAT WOULD BE THAT WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF IN THE CODE. MR CHAIRMAN, I WAS ONLY ASKING IF IT'S STATED AS ONE THAT WOULD ONLY HAVE 180 UNITS COMPARATIVE. JUST LIKE I HAVE MY SHEET HERE AND IN STRATFORD MEADOWS BACK IN 2000 AND FOUR HAD A DENSITY OF 2.66. SO WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED LESS DENSE THAN WHAT WAS. ORIGINALLY PROPOSED BACK IN 2000 AND FOUR. AND DON'T FORGET THE CONDOS, FREESTANDING CONDOS JACK UP THE DENSITY BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT THERE IS SITUATED THERE. SHOT YES, MR CAN I JUST ELABORATE ON THE WHEN THIS PROPERTY WAS IN X I WAS AROUND, THEN. THIS WAS ACTUALLY A DEFENSIVE MOVE. MOVE. FATHER CITY OF COLUMBUS AND PAIY OWNERS TO THE. EAST OF THIS SITE TO CROSS THE RIVER. AND TO ANNEX NOT ONLY THAT PROPERTY, BUT PROPERTY WHERE CIDA MATTERS IS TODAY. AND WE WORKED WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER AND PROPERTY OWNERS. AND SAID THAT REALLY IS NOT OUR BEST INTERESTS AS A COMMUNITY. HAVE THAT BEING DEVELOPED IN THE CITY OF COLUMBUS. AND THAT'S RESULT WE WERE ABLE TO GET THIS ANNEXED INTO GROSS CITY. ALONG WITH THE SIGHT OF MATTER SO A LITTLE BIT MORE OF AN EXPLANATION. OTHERWISE IT WOULD BE IN THE CITY OF COLUMBUS DEVELOPED OTHERWISE. THANK YOU, MR MAYOR. AS I SAID. GOOD ZONING DOCUMENTS ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT THEY DID NOT RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ZONING CHANGE. SO UM, WHILE WE'RE AT IT ON HERE BEFORE WE TURN IT OVER TO COUNSEL FOR COMMENTS, AND THAT. DEVELOPERS ATTORNEY MR HART WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME UP AND. AND BE AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT TO STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE. THANK YOU, MR SHOCKEY. GOOD EVENING COUNCIL. TOM HART BY ADDRESSES TO MIRONOVA PLACE REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT PULTE HOMES. MR SHOCK. YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A FEW BRIEF COMMENTS IF I MAY

[00:15:04]

ABSOLUTELY HAD A LITTLE BIT TOO. WHAT KYLE SAID NOT BE REDUNDANT. WITH THE GOING TO THE ALL 70 LOT PLAN AND THE TAX RATE THE TAX BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. THAT WAS ALSO A STRATEGY TO PROTECT AND INVEST PROTECT THE NATURAL STREAM CORRIDOR ON THE SITE. AND BE ABLE TO ADD IT TO THE REGIONAL PATH SYSTEM THAT WE THAT WE ARE COMMITTED TO. WHAT WE'VE DONE IS WE'VE ADDED MORE OPEN SPACE TO UP AGAINST THE STREAM QUARTER. REMOVE LOTS AND HOUSES AWAY FROM THERE. SO THAT THE REGIONAL PATH CAN SIT IN A FLAT AREA AND NOT GET DOWN INTO, UM SO PEOPLE CAN ENJOY IT AND USE IT FROM REGIONAL TRAIL SYSTEM. UM AND WE CAN WE CAN LARGELY COMPLETELY ACTUALLY PRESERVE IT. UM THE PATH THEN PROCEEDS WOULD PROCEED TO THE EAST AND THEN UP 6 65 AND WOULD FACILITATE CONNECTION TO THE METRO PARK. SO GROUP METRO PARK. WITH THE CHANGES WE'VE MADE WITH THIS TEXT BEFORE YOU. WE'RE WORRIED ABOUT 47 A QUARTER ACRES OPEN SPACE ABOUT 33. WITH THIS, YOU KNOW, PRESERVATION OF THIS THIS WONDERFUL UM, NATURAL AREA OF THE. NOT ONLY RESIDENTS OF THE IMMEDIATE COMMUNITY CAN ENJOY, BUT REALLY ANYBODY USING THE REGIONAL PATH SYSTEM. THEM WILL BE ABLE TO ENJOY AND CERTAINLY FOLKS AND SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS. MR CHAIRMAN. I JUST WANTED TO ADD SOME COMMENTS ABOUT HOUSING AND WHERE WE SIT TODAY. WITH REGARD TO THIS DEVELOPMENT. MM AS AS AS STAFF IS CAR ALLUDED TO AND THE MAYOR ALLUDED TO AND MR ROBY MENTIONED THIS SITE WAS OWNED PREVIOUSLY AT A HIGHER DENSITY AND WITH MORE UNITS. MM. AND IT DOES. YOU KNOW, KIND OF WHAT? WHAT WAS GOING ON BACK IN 2000 AND FOUR IS WE'RE AT THAT POINT TODAY.

WE'RE KIND OF REVISITING THE PAST. IN THE SENSE THAT YOUR COMMUNITY. HAS A LOT OF MOMENTUM . IT'S CREATING A LOT OF JOBS. YOU'RE YOU'RE EXPANDING YOUR COMMERCIAL AND BUSINESS TAX BASE . YOU'RE CREATING PROSPERITY FOR YOUR RESIDENTS, AND THAT'S YOU KNOW, THAT'S THIS ADMINISTRATION AND COUNCIL. FROM HAS DONE THAT. IN THIS IN THIS PERIOD OF ECONOMIC EXPANSION. YOUR SURGERY MEDICAL CAMPUS. THE FACILITIES THAT THEY'RE SPENDING OFF. YOU KNOW WHAT? THE EXPECTED GROWTH ADDITIONAL GROWTH FROM THAT GROWTH BEGINS. GROWTH. MOMENTUM BEGETS MOMENTUM. AND THAT IS WHAT YOU'RE DOING. YOU'RE GROWING YOUR ECONOMY. YOU'RE CREATING PROSPERITY AND OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUR RESIDENTS. THE SERVICE THAT HOUSING IS NEEDED, BUT THERE'S NO ESCAPING THAT STRONG JOB CREATION ALSO CREATES THE NEED FOR HOUSING TO SUPPORT IT. UM WHEN PEOPLE PLANNING COMMUNITY WHERE PEOPLE CAN LIVE CLOSER TO WHERE THEY WORK. UM, IT SHORTENS THEIR COMMUTE TIME IT GIVES IT PROVES QUALITY OF LIFE. IT WHEN YOU HAVE NEW WORKERS THAT CAN LIVE IN YOUR OWN IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITY WHERE THEY CAN LIVE AND WORK IN THE SAME COMMUNITY, I SHOULD SAY. THEY SPEND MONEY, THEY SPEND ADDITIONAL TAX BASE AND CREATE ADDITIONAL TAX BASE IN THE COMMUNITY. NOT ONLY DO. GAIN THEIR INCOME TAXES, BUT YOU GAIN THEIR SPEND IN THE COMMUNITY. THEY PUT DOWN ROOTS IN THE COMMUNITY. THERE ARE GREATER PART OF THE COMMUNITY.

SO IN A PERIOD WHERE. YOU GUYS ARE CREATING JOBS, YOU'RE FUELING ECONOMIC GROWTH. UM. AND HOUSING IS STILL A KEY ITEM AND CREATING FAMILY WEALTH, CREATING GENERATIONAL WEALTH AND IMPROVING PEOPLE'S QUALITY OF LIFE. A SITE LIKE THIS IS IMPORTANT. NOT ONLY DOES IT DELIVER GREAT NATURAL AREA IN THIS REGIONAL BLAKE PATH. AMENITY. IT'S ALSO A VERY NICE PLACE TO LIVE A VERY STRONG. COMMUNITY THAT WILL HELP PROPERTY VALUES AROUND IT. IT WOULD BE A VERY POSITIVE. FORCED TO HELP YOUR IN TERMS OF QUALITY LIFE TO HELP YOUR ECONOMIC EXPANSION. UM MR IRAQI. THAT CONCLUDES OUR MY PREPARED REMARKS, OF COURSE, WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT, AS YOU SEE FIT HIS COUNSEL. SIX THANK YOU, MR HARKNESS. QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL FREEDOM. MR HARDER, MR ROSS. NO. ALL RIGHT. START WITH QUITE A FEW PEOPLE SIGNED UP FROM THE PUBLIC. IT WILL JUST BE GIVING STATEMENTS AND ONCE AGAIN , UM YOUR COMMENTS ARE RESTRICTED TO THE ORDINANCE ON HAND. IT'S ABOUT ZONING. ABOUT TRAFFIC OR DEVELOPMENT PLAN, AND I ASK YOU TO ADDRESS THOSE COMMENTS. IF YOU DO HAVE COMMENTS ABOUT THIS ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN OR THE IMPACT ON ON TRAFFIC OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS.

THAT WE CAN DO NUMBER ONE. WE CAN TAKE THOSE COMMENTS DURING NEW BUSINESS LATER IN THE MEETING, AND YOU'RE CERTAINLY WELCOME TO DO THAT. OR SECONDLY , IF THIS DOES GET REZONED ON

[00:20:05]

HERE, THEY WILL BE DOING AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN. WHICH WILL THEN HAVE MONEY. MANY, MANY MORE DETAILS, AND THEY WILL ALSO HAVE INFORMATION FROM THEIR TRAFFIC STUDIES AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SO AT THAT POINT, YOU MAY WANT TO EITHER CONTINUE IN NEW BUSINESS OR YOU CAN CONTINUE. WHEN THEY DO THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN. YOU'RE CERTAINLY WELCOME TO DO BOTH OF THOSE, IF YOU WISH ON THERE. SO ONCE AGAIN, WE'RE RESTRICTING IT TO THE ORDINANCE HERE THIS EVENING ON REZONING. MISS ROSE.

I BELIEVE YOU'RE THE FIRST ONE SIGNED UP. CONNIE ROSE IS IT? DURING THE NEW BUSINESS. YEAH FANTASTIC. WE'LL PUT YOU DOWN FOR THAT. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. I'M HAVING TROUBLE READING A LITTLE BIT, IS IT? ANY OLD OR. PR OLDER. OH, THANK YOU. THAT WAS MUCH EASIER, MR ALDER.

HONOR. I SAID THAT IT'S MUCH EASIER THAN I THOUGHT. ERIC HOLDER. OLDER FARMS, 675 LONDON GROVE COURT ROAD. AH! I DID HAVE A. CARE OF DRINKING SPEECH WRITTEN ABOUT THE TRAFFIC AND ALL THAT, BUT I'LL KEEP IT TO THE POINT. I GUESS MY BABE ISSUE WITH, UH. THE FACT THAT WE'RE CRAMMED INTO THE ROOM FIVE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS ABOUT ZONING. IS I BELIEVE IN THE. SPRING MINUTES. AT SOME POINT, THE DEVELOPER WAS ASKED TO DO CERTAIN THINGS TO PROCEED CERTAIN THINGS TOO. TO CHANGE THE ZONING AND, UH, ONE OF THOSE BEING THE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS, WHICH KYLE SAID EARLIER HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED. SO I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY WE'RE RUSHING INTO THINGS NOW. WHEN THEY HAVEN'T WE HAVEN'T DONE ALL THE OTHER THINGS ON THE LIST. THAT WERE SAID TO BE DONE. WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT ZONING NOW? WHY CAN'T THIS WAIT TILL LATER? WHY DOES IT HAVE TO HAPPEN RIGHT FOR THE END OF THE YEAR? UM. THE SPACE REQUIREMENTS. UM, YOU KNOW THE OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENTS. USING PLUM RUN AS YOU'RE OPEN SPACE REPORT THAT'S FLOOD AREA THAT WILL FLOOD AND THE RESIDENTS WON'T BE ABLE TO USE THAT FOR TRAILS. IF YOU LIVE IN THE AREA, YOU KNOW IT'S FLOODING, AND IT GETS DANGEROUS WHEN THE WATER GETS HIGH. SO, YOU KNOW. THEN THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE ZONING AND THE SPACE REQUIREMENTS. SO YOU HAVE PUT THAT OUT THERE. AND AS THEIR LAWYER WAS JUST SAYING ABOUT THT FOR THE RESIDENTS TO HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE AND WORK. WELL THE RESIDENTS HERE CAN'T AFFORD THESE HOUSES. THESE HOUSES ARE GOING TO END UP BEING LIKE $450,000 HOUSES. IT'S NOT AFFORDABLE HOUSES, SO THEY'RE GOING TO BE COMMUTING OUT. THEIR TAX MONEY IS GOING OUT OF THE CITY ANYWAY, SO THAT SHOULDN'T BE A CONSIDERATION. UM AH, HERE AND, UH, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY, I'M TRYING TO GO THROUGH AND FACTOR POINTS THAT THAT ARE ON TOPIC FOR YOU. BUT I. THE BIG THING IS JUST, YOU KNOW, LOOK AT THIS ROOM. THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT HAPPY WITH THIS MOVING FORWARD AS IT IS. AND I THINK YOUR VOTE SHOULD REFLECT ON HOW THEY FEEL , EVEN IF IT'S NOT NECESSARILY THE POINTS THAT YOU WANT. UM IT'S THE POINT THAT THERE, UH, WE NEED TO STEP BACK AND WAIT. AND PROPERLY PLANNED THIS AND NOT JUST RUSHING TO HIS ZONING CHANGE. I MEAN, I'D BE CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT THE PLAN BECOMES AFTER HIS ZONING CHANGE, BUT WE'RE KIND OF OPENING UP A BOOK. OF UNKNOWNS THAT'S GOING TO SCARE ALL OF US ABOUT NOT KNOWING WHAT THE REAL PLAN IS. YOU KNOW, UNTIL THIS MORNING CHANGE HAPPENS. SO THAT'S ABOUT WHAT I CAN SAY. THANK YOU. MR OLDER, APPRECIATE IT. JOHN AND SARAH RILEY. EVENING. MY NAME IS SARAH RILEY. I LOVE IT. 7 90 LONDON GIRL PORT ROAD. I LIVE IN THAT LITTLE RECTANGLE IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL OF THEM POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENTS. MY HUSBAND, JOHN IS HERE AS WELL. UM SO IT'S 2.2 ACRES. WE HAD THE PLEASURE OF LIVING THERE FOR ONLY SIX MONTHS. BUT I CAN TELL YOU IT'S NOT JUST A FIELD. UM, AND IT'S NOT JUST POSSIBLE PROSPECTING.

LONG, BUT THERE'S NO. SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE CLEAR THAT THIS ISN'T A TYPICAL AREA. I KNOW.

YOU POINTED OUT? YES. THEY'RE TYPICAL WAYS OF HOW TO DEVELOP THESE THINGS. BUT THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL AREA. THIS IS PLUM RUN. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL STRANGE SYSTEM HAS A BEAUTIFUL RAVINE. UM. ART

[00:25:02]

UM, NEIGHBOR JOHN AND MY HUSBAND , JOHN. COINCIDENTALLY THEY WILL GO DOWN AND WE CLEAN OUT PLUM RUN, AND SO A BIG CONCERN FOR US FOR BOTH JOHN, MY HUSBAND. AND I IS. OKAY WE HAVE THIS UNIQUE ECOSYSTEM. WE HAVE A DIVERSE GROUP OF. UM WE HAVE A DEER FAMILY. WE HAVE GO FIRST. WE HAVE TO SKUNKS. WE HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL ECOSYSTEM THAT FEEDS INTO THE RIVER AND. WHAT IS THIS GOING TO DO TODAY? ECOSYSTEM? WHAT IS IT GONNA DO TO OUR COMMUNITY WHEN WE HAVE A BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO MOVE IN AND WHAT IS THE TRASH? COLLECTION SYSTEM GOING TO LOOK LIKE HONESTLY, I WOULD LOVE IF THIS TURNED INTO A PART NOT ONLY TO ME THINE THIS BEAUTIFUL GREEN SPACE THAT WE HAVE AND BE ABLE TO SEE THE SUNSET SAID NOT. 11 CONDOS RIGHT ON TOP OF US. UM. IT'S MORE THAN JUST PROSPECTIVELY. AND MY WHOLE POINT HERE IS, IT'S A FEELING IT'S NOT JUST. LAND IN THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS AROUND US. WE LOVE IT. AND THE IDEA OF. HAVING A LOT OF ENCROACHING NUMBERS OF PEOPLE IN SMALL LOTS. IT'S VERY CONCERNING. FOR THE POSSIBLE REPERCUSSIONS. SO THANK YOU FOR LISTENING. I APPRECIATE YOUR THANK YOU, MR RYLAND. MM GREG BRO. BERLIOZ. HELLO. SORRY.

RULER. MY NAME IS GREG CARLYLE LIVE AT 5 31 SAY TO HIM THAT HIS BOULEVARD INSIDE OF MEADOWS SUBDIVISION. I WOULD NOT BE FOR THIS REZONING IF I UNDERSTAND WHAT THE REASONING MEANS, WHICH WOULD MEAN ALLOW FOR MORE PEOPLE TO LIVE ON THAT SAME SPOT. RIGHT? SO IF THAT'S THE CASE, YOU CAN'T DIVORCE THE TRAFFIC SITUATION FROM. THE REZONING BECAUSE MORE PEOPLE MEANS MORE DRIVE. THANK YOU. MR LINDER. JOHN LINDERMAN THREE OR SIX. APOLOGIZE SORRY, I APOLOGIZE.

63178 ARE ON THE LINE. I LIVE RIGHT WHERE THEY'RE PLANNING TO CONNECT CIDA MEADOWS, TOO. THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT. AGAIN. I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT TRAFFIC, BUT. THERE'S A LOT OF SAFETY CONCERNS AROUND THIS, BUT JUST AS FAR AS THAT GOES. YOU'RE JAMMING A LOT MORE IN HERE AND ANYWHERE WE GO AND GROW CITY. THERE'S HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS GOING UP LEFT AND RIGHT. THERE COMES A POINT OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND HE'S TALKING ABOUT LAND VALUES AND HOUSES GOING UP. WHEN THERE'S MORE TO PICK FROM. YOUR HOUSES ARE GOING TO GO DOWN AT SOME POINT BECAUSE THERE'S MORE TO PICK FROM AND YOU HAVE LESS BARGAINING VALUE. SO TALKING ABOUT? PEOPLE COMING INTO THE COMMUNITY TO WORK. EVERYONE AROUND COLUMBUS COMES TOO CLOSE TO WORK IN GROUPS TODAY, THE WORK I HAVE FAMILY THAT HE'S TWO HOURS THAT COMES UP HERE IS ON TIME EVERY DAY AND GOES TO WORK SO SAYING THAT WE NEED TO JAMES MANY HOUSES IN HERE AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE. THE BUSINESS IS ONE ANOTHER'S SOMEBODY HERE TO WORK. THAT'S JUST NOT THE CASE. COLUMBUS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST CITY IS BIG CITY. IN OHIO. THERE'S PLENTY TO GO AROUND. SO, UM. NOT BEING ABLE TO TOUCH ON THE TRAFFIC. THAT REALLY IS A BIG CONCERN THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED BEFORE THEY MOVE FORWARD WITH ANYTHING THAT THEY DECIDE TO GO IN THERE WITH THE VICTIMS. BANDA SECRETS. I'M AMANDA SECRET EXACTLY. LIVE AT 32. TENS UBER ROADS, EXUBERANCE, SEEDS. JUST KIND OF ON THE OTHER END. DEFINITELY GO THIS WAY. LOTS OF TIMES I CAN COVER WITH ERIC AND THIS GENTLEMAN THAT THERE'S NOT QUITE ENOUGH INFORMATION AT THIS TIME TO DETERMINE. MOTHER OR NOT REZONING WOULD BE APPROPRIATE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH BACKGROUND STUDIES TO SEE WHAT THAT IMPACT WOULD BE. I ALSO LIVED WITH THE OTHER END OF CAMERON AND I CAN ATTEST THAT IT LIKES TO FLOOD A LOT AND THEN HAVING TO CLEAN UP PLUM RUN. I HAVE TO DO THAT ON MY PROPERTY A COUPLE TIMES A YEAR JUST TO KEEP IT FROM FLOODING. AND THAT'S NOT EVEN FROM. TRASH AND LITTER. IT'S JUST FROM STICKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, SO I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW MUCH WORSE IT WOULD BE WITH THE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. BRIAN MCDANIEL.

[00:30:05]

MY NAME'S BRIAN MCDANIELS 407 WEST RIVER DRIVE. TRY TO STICK. TO ZONING PART. IT'S HARD TO SEPARATE THAT FROM. EVERYBODY EVERYBODY ELSE WAS SAYING THE TRAFFIC AND EVERYTHING ELSE BUT DASH LOGAN AND YOUR DEPARTMENT. KYLE HAD A VERY GOOD DOCUMENT THAT HE GAVE TO THE DEVELOPER AND. AND HOPEFULLY EVERYBODY WAS A CHANCE TO READ THAT, BUT AGAIN. HE DEVELOPER JUST KEPT.

NOT ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS. AND THEN I KNOW YOU MR SHOT GAME WHEN YOU GAVE HIM THREE REQUIREMENTS. IT WAS IN JUNE. BUT THEY COULD ONLY AGREE TO AND THEY NEVER DID COME BACK WITH THE FIRE TRUCK. ENTRY IN AND OUT . THEY NEVER GOT THE TRAFFIC STUDY. SO I GUESS MY POINT IS.

BUT THEY HAD THEY PUT A LOT OF TIME INTO THE PLANS. AND I'M THINKING WELL, THEY PUT ALL THAT TIME AND EFFORT INTO THESE PLANS. WHILE THE SUDDEN NOW THEY GOT TO REZONE IT. SO THEY PUT UP ANOTHER PLAN WITH ALL THESE NICE LOTS, BUT. AGAIN IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING, BECAUSE ONCE IT'S REZONED CAN YOU GO BACK AND ZONE? IT? GO BACKWARDS. PROBABLY NOT. SO THEY COULD PUT TWICE AS MANY HOUSES IN THERE. I MEAN, WHO KNOWS THAT IT'S JUST IT'S NOT MAKING SENSE. THAT'S WHY I THINK WE SHOULD REALLY. SLOW DOWN. THERE'S NO RUSH TO REZONE THIS. LET'S GET LET'S GET OLD DOT IN HERE. LAURA LINNEY'S. AND LET'S DO A TRAFFIC STUDY. SEE HOW IT'S GOING TO IMPACT ALL OF US THAT LIVE AROUND THAT AREA. THAT'S ALL I GOT TO SAY. THE THROUGHPUT POINT OF INFORMATION FOR THE AUDIENCE. THANK YOU, UM , THE ZONING TWO X SPECIFIES WHAT THEY CAN AND CANNOT DO NUMBER OF HOMES THAT SIZE OF THE LOTS TO SET BACK. DECIDES SETBACKS, THE TYPE OF HOMES IN THERE THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE LOT THINK ONCE THIS ZONING TAKEN CARE OF THEY CANNOT DEVIATE FROM THAT, AND AS FAR AS THE JUNE. 10TH MEETING IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY WHEN WE DID THE PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN, AND WE HAD STRESS STIPULATIONS. WEATHER AND MR HART WAS HERE WHETHER THEY AGREED WITH ALL THREE OR NOT, IT DIDN'T MATTER. COUNCIL PASSED ALL THREE AND I REMINDED MR HART AND OUR CONVERSATIONS THAT WE HAVE. COUNCIL HAD PASSED THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE FOR THIS STANDARD HOMES , NOT THE FREESTANDING CONDOMINIUMS WITH THE STANDARD HOMES WERE 70 FT. PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL, SO THAT'S THE MINIMUM SIZE THEY COULD HAVE OF THOSE FREESTANDING HOMES. THAT'S JUST A POINT OF INFORMATION. ON THERE NOT TO HAVE ANY CONFUSION ON THE. OKAY MOVING ON, THEN. LET'S SEE. WE HAVE MR HALL. MIKE HALL, MR CHAIRMAN, AS AS MR HALL COMES FORWARD, I JUST WANTED TO REMIND YOU THAT I DO HAVE A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF THE. RED LINE STRIKEOUT ZONING TEXT OVER HERE FOR ANYONE WHO DID NOT SEE IT ONLINE ALREADY. AND THEN THE ACTUAL COPIES TO OUR ONLINE IN THE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, PART OF OUR CITY WEBSITE. ON THE MR HALL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. TONIGHT. I'M AT MICHAEL HALL AT 805. SO I'M JUST ACROSS FROM OUR FRIENDS. THEY JUST CAME IN SIX MONTHS AGO AND RACISTS TO CHILDREN WENT TO GROW UP CITY HIGH SCHOOL. IF YOU ADD IT UP RIGHT AROUND $96,000 THAT I'VE DONATED AS PART OF MY TAXES. AND HOPEFULLY GOD WILLING, THERE'LL BE ANOTHER 96,000 MORE SO. MY CONCERN. MY CONCERN IS OBVIOUSLY THE DENSITY. OF COURSE, I'LL OFFER MY DRIVEWAY FOR ANY OF YOU THAT LIKE TO COME BETWEEN 3 35.

WILL HELP YOU. MAYBE TRY TO FLAG SO I CAN GET OUT OF MY DRIVE. NUMBER TWO. THERE'S ALL KINDS OF NOISE. SO ONE OF THE REASONS FOR MAKING UP PURCHASE IN 2000 AND SIX WAS TO BE OUT. AND HAVING A FARM AREA GROWING UP IN MANSFIELD, OHIO. THAT'S PERFECT. THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO NATURALLY, SAME THING LOOKING AT SUNRISES AND SUNSETS WHERE YOU HAVE WHERE I'M GOING TO HAVE TO FIGURE OUT TREE STRUCTURES. TO PUT UP MORE MORE TREES TO ELIMINATE NOISE AND ISSUES LIKE THAT. I RUN OFF OF A WELL. SO I HAVE A LITTLE CONCERNED WITH ANY KIND OF UTILITIES THAT MIGHT GO THROUGH THERE. THERE IS NO GAS ON THE ON THE ON THE ROAD, EITHER. SO THERE'S JUST SOME SOME NATURAL CONCERNS FOR ME BEING CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE CYO TW ENFORCEMENT. NOISE NUANCES. YEAH AND WE'VE ALL HEARD ABOUT THE TRAFFIC. SO I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TONIGHT AND I AGREE WITH MY

[00:35:04]

FRIENDS, WHICH IS IF YOU HAVE HESITATION, SO DO WE. AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE ALL HERE. I THINK WE CAN ALL GET TO AN AGREEMENT POINT. IT'S CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO BE A FARMLAND ANYMORE, AND WE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT'S NEXT. THANK YOU, MR HALL. RIGHT? MEMBER OF BRUNER, IS IT I'M SORRY. TO THE SAME ROOM. AND REPRESENT 8 90 LONDON GROUP COURTROOM, SO I'M RIGHT AT THE OTHER CORNER THERE OF THAT LITTLE CUT OUT. AND, UM. YOU KNOW, AS MY NEIGHBORS AND THE OTHER, YOU KNOW, WERE THE MOST AFFECTED BY THIS WHOLE DEVELOPMENT. I FEEL LIKE IN THE BY THIS CHANGE. BECAUSE. THERE'S MORE DENSITY THERE. YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT MORE. SHOVED INTO ONE AREA. AND WE'RE HERE AND WE'RE HERE AND I JUST THINK THAT. PUTTING MORE ON A SMALLER AREA.

IT'S JUST NOT. A GOOD IDEA, TRYING NOT TO TALK ABOUT THE TRAFFIC BECAUSE, YOU KNOW THAT'S THE BIGGEST ISSUE. MM AND IT IS ON A FLOOD PLAIN, YOU KNOW? HOW IS THAT GOING TO AFFECT MY LAND RIGHT THERE WHEN YOU SHOVE ALL THESE HERE AND IT PUSHES IT ON MY WAY. I'M JUST YOU KNOW IT.

IT'S VERY CONCERNING SO UM SHE IS. THE DEVELOPMENT HERE. IF YOU CHANGE IT, THESE ARE GOING TO BE CONDOS THAT ARE TARGETED. I THINK TO AN ORDER. YOU KNOW? POPULATION. AND NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE. BUT I'M SO SORRY. YOU GOT A FEW YEARS? UM. I THINK IF YOU PUTTING THEM THERE, I THINK IS. IN THIS DEVELOPMENT. THAT'S NOT THE EVEN IF YOU DO WANT TO PUT THE KIND OF THAT'S NOT THE GREATEST PLACE FOR. MM. IT'S A LOT OF TRAFFIC AND ALL OUT FROM MY DRIVEWAY AS WELL TO ANYONE WHO WOULD LOVE TO COME. LET ME OUT BECAUSE. DURING THOSE BUSY HOURS DURING THE DAY. IF SOMEONE DOESN'T LET YOU OUT, YOU DON'T GET OUT. NO AND TURNING LEFT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY IS IMPOSSIBLE. SO PUTTING THAT MANY MORE WITH AN ENTRANCE RIGHT THERE. I JUST WORRY ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE AND YOU KNOW? HOW IS THAT GOING TO BE FOR THEM IF I HAVE THIS MUCH TROUBLE, AND THERE'S NO HOUSES THERE WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE SO. ALL I HAVE TO SAY FOR THAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. JUST FOR POINT OF INFORMATION FOR EVERYONE. THERE'S THREE STEPS TO DEVELOPMENTS. THERE'S A PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN, WHICH IS KIND OF CONCEPTUAL, AND THAT WAS PASSED IN JUNE OF SAYING, HEY, WE NEED WE COULD LOOK AT THIS. UM. THERE'S THE ZONING, WHICH IS TODAY WITH BECAUSE IT'S A TYPE IF IT WAS ALL SINGLE FAMILY HOMES OR A SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE. WE WOULDN'T HAVE THE ZONING TEXT IN HERE. BUT BECAUSE IT'S A. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WITH MULTIPLE TYPES OF HOMES. ON THEIR MEETING FREESTANDING CONDOS FROM REGULAR FAMILY HOMES. UM. THAT'S THE SECOND STEP FOR ZONING AND THE THIRD STEP THEN IS WHAT PROBABLY MOST OF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN IS THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN WHEN YOU ACTUALLY SEE EXACTLY HOW THE THINGS ARE GOING TO BE.

CONSTRUCTED. WHAT'S GOING TO BE DONE WITH THE STREETS. WHAT'S GOING TO BE AT THE TRAFFIC STUDY ALL THOSE TYPES OF THINGS THAT SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE THEY'RE PREYING UPON WHAT IS DONE TODAY , SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE KNOWS THAT ON THE. ARE THERE ANY COMMENTS OR ANYTHING ONLINE? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. I DO WANT TO COME IN YOU AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND YOUR ADHERENCE TO TALKING ABOUT THE ORDINANCE TONIGHT AND ANYONE THAT WANTS TO TALK ABOUTE CERTAINLY WELCOME TO DO THAT DURING NEW BUSINESS, AND WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR COMMENTS . MANY OF YOU I HAVE EMAILED AND HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH BACK AND FORTH OF US. ON THERE, SO I DO BELIEVE THAT. I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING AN INTEREST AND ACTUALLY EMAILING US AND TAKING YOUR VIEWS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. MOVING ON HERE THEN. ANY OTHER THINGS FROM COUNCIL. SORT OF SAID YES, I WOULDN'T SLEEP. OH, I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T SEE YOUR HANDS AND I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT. REALLY, UM FOR ME. AH THIS IS REALLY TIED TO THE CONVERSATION OF DENSITY. THE CURRENT ZONING AND. AND THIS IS THIS IS THE AREA THAT WE DO HAVE A VOICE AS MEMBERS OF COUNCIL.

THE CURRENT ZONING IS SF ONE. AS WE HAVE HEARD CLEARLY IS FAR LESS THAN THAN WHAT IS PROPOSED HERE. UM. I'M ALWAYS APPREHENSIVE TO LISTEN TO THE COMPARISON TO 2000 AND FOUR AS

[00:40:05]

OUR COMMUNITY HAS CHANGED DRAMATICALLY SINCE THE YEAR 2000 AND FOUR SO I THINK THAT IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE. LEAVE 2000 AND FOUR BEHIND US AND ADDRESS THE ISSUES THAT WE HAVE AT PRESENT. AND I ALSO WANT TO TOUCH ON FOR THE COMMUNITY'S PERSPECTIVE, AND I'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS PRETTY MUCH EVERY TIME WITH THIS PARTICULAR TYPE OF ZONING. THE PURITY ZONING.

VERY CLOSELY MARRIES UP WITH THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN, AND I THINK THAT'S A LOT OF THE REASON WHY THERE ARE SO MANY TOPICS OF CONVERSATION THAT COME WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT IS OWNING TAXED. AND IT'S REALLY VERY. CLOSELY MATCHED TO WHAT YOU WILL ULTIMATELY SEE IN THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN. AND, UM AND THEN, FINALLY, MY TWO CENTS WORTH IT. IS THAT THE TRAFFIC CONVERSATION. IS VERY MUCH MARRIED TO THE ZONING WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT DENSITY, SO IT IS VERY HARD FOR ME AS IT HAS BEEN, FOR ALL OF YOU TO SEPARATE YOUR FEELINGS. RELATED TO DENSITY FROM YOUR FEELINGS ABOUT TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT ABSOLUTELY IMPACTS THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES THAT WILL BE ON THE ROADWAY AND SO FOR ME DENSITY AND THEN THE LACK OF FLEXIBILITY. IN WHAT WE SEE HERE IN TERMS OF ADDRESSING SOME SERIOUS ISSUES ON 6 65, AND I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT ON THAT. THANK YOU, MR BARRY. AND I'LL AGAIN GO BACK TO WHAT MISHEL WAS TALKING ABOUT. THE TO ME. ZONING IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO TRAFFIC BECAUSE WHAT WE'RE DOING IS WE'RE EITHER APPROVING MORE. WE'RE IMPROVING LESSER. OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE THE OTHER QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE MR ROUSH REGARDING FLOODPLAIN AND EVERYTHING IS HAS THIS BEEN LOOKED AT BY, UM. YOU KNOW WHEN IT COMES TO WATER, RETENTION AND WATER FLOW AND NATURAL AREAS ANT THERE. I'VE I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN OUT IN THAT AREA AND I KNOW IT DOES FLOOD HEAVILY. UM. AND OF COURSE, IF THE ANSWER IS WE'RE PONDING, SO IT DOESN'T FLOOD THAT DOESN'T THAT'S ANOTHER ISSUE. GO AHEAD, SIR. SO HARD TO KEEP PLAYING THERE? YES. ADDRESSING THE WHOLE ISSUE OF STORMWATER MANAGEMENT AND FLOOD CONTROL, AND YOU KNOW IS A PART OF THAT TECHNICAL FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW NOW WE ARE IN PROCESS ON THAT WE'VE WE'VE HAD SEVERAL ITERATIONS ON THE FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN. UM WE ACTUALLY FILED WHEN AN ADDITIONAL FINAL DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION. RECENTLY AND THAT THOSE HEARINGS ARE UPCOMING, BUT CERTAINLY. THIS SITE WILL HAVE TO MEET THE CITY'S STORMWATER.

REGULATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS. I WILL SAY, ADMINISTERED AND GOVERNED. UNDER THE CLEAN WATER ACT AND VERY CAPABLY BY THE CITY. THAT REGULATION OF STORMWATER IS VERY DIFFERENT IN THE CITY OF GROSS CITY THAN IT IS IN 100 TOWNSHIP LAW. SO WE WOULD EXPECT. SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN THE WATER FLOW. COMPARED TO WHAT HAPPENS TODAY, COMING OFF THE SITE. UM ESPECIALLY WITH THE USE OF THE PONDS AND THE AND GETTING THE WATER EFFORTS CLEANED AND SLOWED DOWN. TO PLAN RUN THAT THAT IS A PRIMARY. YOU KNOW, FUNCTION OF STORMWATER REGULATION ON SITE LIKE THIS. MR LUCKY IF I MAY JUST AGAIN ANOTHER BRIEF POINT. WE DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO MISUNDERSTAND. WE'VE BEEN WE'VE BEEN UNDER A TWEET FILED A TRAFFIC STUDY AND BUT UNDER REVIEW OF OUR TRAFFIC IMPACT SINCE MAY. AND THE TRAFFIC DOES COME TRUCK STUDY DOES CULMINATE AND COME TOGETHER WITH THE FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN HEARING. BUT WE HAVE LOTS OF IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE I'M FOCUSED ON IN THE TRAFFIC STUDY. TRAFFIC IS NOT LEGALLY PART OF ZONING. OF COURSE IT IS RELATED. BUT UM THIS SITE WILL BE REQUIRED BY THE LAW TO MITIGATE THE TRAFFIC IT GENERATES, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT OUR TRAFFIC STUDY SAYS. UM IT IS. IT IS A PUBLIC DOCUMENT. ANYBODY CAN REVIEW IT. THE CITY MADE CITY AND, OH DOT MAINTAIN JURISDICTION OVER THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND REGULATE US ON TRAFFIC AND THAT THAT PROCESS IS ONGOING. SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT IS. THE TRAFFIC STUDY HAS BEEN UNDERWAY SINCE SINCE WE STARTED IN MAY. THANK YOU, MR ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COLLEGE. FIBER. NOT KNOW YOUR THANK. NAME IS JACKIE. I'D LIKE TO ADDRESS A FEW OF THE COMMENTS MADE BY THE CITIZENS HERE. THE ISSUE OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND WITH AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SMALL LOTS. WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO IT. THIS ECONOMICS IS MY ESPECIALLY SEXY AMERICAN ECONOMIST TIE. AND I'M ALSO A REALTOR. SO HOUSING AND ECONOMICS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME. AND SO WE HAVE FOCUSED HEAVILY ON. EVERY STUDY BY ANY CIVIL ENGINEERING AREA HAS SAID

[00:45:02]

THAT FRANKLIN COUNTY. IS SET TO DOUBLE IN POPULATION SIZE IN THE NEXT 30 YEARS. NOW I'VE ONLY LIVED HERE 30 YEARS. AND I WAS ACTUALLY RAISED ON 6 65. AND TRAFFIC WAS I THOUGHT THAT WAS BAD. THEN IT HASN'T REALLY CHANGED MUCH WHERE I USED TO LIVE. THERE IS THE OPPOSITE END OF 6 65. AND TRAFFIC IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE. OF THE 62 6 65. THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS LOOK. TRAFFIC IS ALWAYS GONNA BE AN ISSUE POPULATION IS CONSTANTLY GROWING. AND WE CANNOT STOP THAT. IF WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DOUBLE POPULATION SIZE BY PEOPLE MOVING HERE AND HAVING CHILDREN THE NEXT 30 YEARS, STOPPING DEVELOPMENT, SLOWING DEVELOPMENT OF NEW HOUSING. IS NOT GOING TO HELP THAT PROBLEM. IF YOU LOOK AT OTHER CITIES, LARGE CITIES. THAT HAVE FOUGHT ZONING CHANGES LIKE SAN FRANCISCO. YOU CAN SEE THE TERRIBLE THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN THE END THE ZONING ISSUES AND THE BUILDING PLAN OUR META DISCUSSIONS THEIR MASKS IN FRONT OF OTHER ISSUES. THE OPTIONS ARE NOT NECESSARILY TO BUILD OR NOT TO BUILD. THE OPTIONS ARE EITHER TO INCREASE HOMELESSNESS, JOBLESSNESS INFLATED HOUSING COSTS THAT CANNOT BE SLOWED DOWN OR BE OR CHANGE OR TO INCREASE TRAFFIC AND INCREASE NOT NECESSARILY DENSITY BUT TO EXPAND OUT THE CITY. UNFORTUNATELY THE DAYS OF GROUPS THAT HE BEING A SMALL FARM TOWNE 29TH LARGEST CITY IN THE STATE. WE'RE SECOND ONLY IN SIZE TO COLUMBUS IN FRANKLIN COUNTY. AND AS MUCH AS I DON'T WANT GROUP CITY TO BECOME A BIG TOWN OF BIG CITY. THERE'S NO SLOWING IT. I HAVE THREE KIDS MYSELF AND EACH ONE OF THEM ARE GOING TO HAVE A HOME WHILE I ALSO HAVE A HOME.

I'M SURE THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO HAVE KIDS WHO ARE GOING TO HAVE A HOME WHILE THEY ALSO HAVE A HOME. THEY NEED PLACES TO LIVE AS OUR POPULATION GROWS. SO I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING, BUT WE CANNOT CREATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING BY STOPPING HOUSES BEING BUILT. IT FOLLOWS THE SUPPLY AND DEMAND WHEN THERE ARE ENOUGH HOUSES TO MEET DEMAND. WHEN THEY'RE ENOUGH SUPPLY TO MEET THE DEMAND. THE HOUSING PRICES WILL LEVEL OFF AND BE AFFORDABLE. IF WE STOP BUILDING HOUSES, THEN THE AFFORDABILITY GOES OUT THE WINDOW. AND THAT'S JUST HONEST TO GOD BASIC SUPPLY AND DEMAND ECONOMICS. WHEN THERE IS MORE WHEN THERE IS MORE DEMAND THAN SUPPLY, IT GETS EXPENSIVE. THAT'S WHAT HELL DESSERT SAYING RIGHT NOW. IN A MONTH NOT MISTAKEN. THE WATER MITIGATION IS REQUIRED UNDER NEW BUILDS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT IS NOT IMPACT THE AREAS AROUND IT THAT THE WATER THAT IS BEING. DIVERTED IS STILL CONTROLLED BY THAT PROPERTY AND NOT JUST PUSHED OFF TO SOMEBODY ELSE. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, MR SLOVAN. I SEE NO OTHER HANDS UP THERE. SHORTNESS SAID ITS SECOND READING PUBLIC HEARING A MOVEMENT BE APPROVED. SECOND. NO, THIS IS HAPPENING. MR HOLT? NO. MR BARRY KNOW, MR SHARKEY? YES MR SLAVE ALL REGRETFULLY YES. THE SUNNI FAILS. MOVING ON. ORDERS MORNING. ALL RIGHT. ANYBODY WISHING TO LEAVE RIGHT NOW? MINE'S OLD. JUST GO AHEAD NEXT.

[Ordinance C-70-21 Authorize the City Administrator to enter into Community Reinvestment Area Agreements to expand CRA #1. Second reading and public hearing.]

ORDINANCE SEE 70 21 AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR ENTER IN THE COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT AREA AGREEMENTS TO EXPAND THE SIERRA NUMBER ONE. MM GOING TO CALL IN THE ADMINISTRATION TO EXPLAIN THIS ORDINANCE. ON THERE, AND I KNOW THEY HAVE SOME MATERIALS.

UM FOR US TO SEE AND MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE SO OTHER. STIR ROSE . SHOULD YOU WANT TO START OR MR BOZO LIKE, GO AHEAD. THANK YOU. CHAIR SHARKEY. THIS PARTICULAR LEGISLATION IS ACTUALLY A COMPANION TO THE NEXT ONE. IT'S DIFFICULT TO REALLY TALK ABOUT ONE WITHOUT REFERENCING C 71 ALSO. C 70 AUTHORIZES THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH FOUR EXISTING PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN THE CITY OF GROSS CITY TO EXPAND THE COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT AREA. AND IT'S PART OF THE LARGER STRATEGY IN TERMS OF LOOKING AT THE COMMUNITY IN TERMS OF WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER OUR LAST. COMMERCE AREA WITHIN THE CITY OF GROWTH CITY WHAT THE CITY OF GROSSLY UNDER CONTRACT WITH THE CITY OF COLUMBUS, WHERE WE CAN PROVIDE WATER AND SEWER. TO THE

[00:50:01]

NORTH. IT'S 2 70. TO THE WEST. IT'S WHOLE ROAD. TO THE EAST. IT'S THE SAUDER RIVER INTO THE SOUTH. IT'S APPROXIMATELY ZUMA ROAD, SO ALL THOSE AREAS NORTH. EAST AND WEST REALLY HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED. SO THIS IS OUR LAST AS I SAY, COMMERCE AREA. FOUR. WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO ATTRACT BUSINESS. WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS ENSURE THAT THAT THAT COMMERCE OCCURS AND IN ORDER TO DO THAT.

AND AGAIN WITH THIS PARTICULAR LEGISLATION AND THE ONE WE WANT TO SECURE THAT AREA AND HAVE PROPER ZONING AND HAVE, UH, INCENTIVES TO FACILITATE. PROPER DEVELOPMENT. SO WITH THIS DOES THIS AGREEMENT DOES. IS SIGNED IN AGREEMENT WITH THESE PROPERTIES THAT THEY AGREE NOT TO. TAKE A FORMAL STANCE IN TERMS OF WHAT WE CONSIDER TRADITIONAL COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT AREA WHERE YOU GET A 15 YEAR ABATEMENT AT 100. WITH THIS AGREEMENT DOES FOR THESE FOUR PROPERTY OWNERS IS THAT THEY AGREE THAT THEY WILL COME THAT THEIR PROPERTY WILL BE IN A SIERRA. HOWEVER THEY WANT TO GET 85% OF. PAVEMENT THE REMAINDER OF 15% THEY AGREE THAT THAT WOULD BE PAID INTO A FUND. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT IN INFRASTRUCTURE WITHIN THAT AREA.

SO WITH THAT ONE BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR IF YOU LIKE ME TO CONTINUE TO, UH.

REITERATE HOW THAT FITS INTO THE NEXT DOOR, AND I SAID THE HAPPY TOO. CLOSE UP TO WE HAVE A VIDEO THAT OPINION TO THIS. OR IS THAT FOR THE NEXT ONE? IT REALLY SPEAKS OF THE ENTIRE AREA. BE APPROPRIATE, BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE YES. WE COULD HAVE THAT CUTE NOW, PLEASE.

YES. WITH A REPUTATION AS A GREAT HOMETOWN, OFFERING A HIGH QUALITY OF LIFE AND AMENITIES TO A DIVERSE POPULATION GROWTH. CITY HAS EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN RECENT YEARS AND IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING MUNICIPALITIES IN CENTRAL OHIO IN 2018 COMMUNITY PLAN WAS DEVELOPED, CALLED GROVE CITY, 2050. IN THAT PLAN, IT WAS RECOGNIZED THAT THE SOUTHWEST PORTION OF THE CITY HAS RECENTLY SEEN TREMENDOUS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE INVESTMENT MOUNT CARMEL GROVE CITY HOSPITAL MEDICAL OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS ALONG NORTH MEADOWS DRIVE AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE STATE ROUTE. 6 65 71 INTERCHANGE. THE AREA IS ALSO HOME TO SEVERAL MAJOR EMPLOYERS FROM DISTRIBUTION. RETAIL COMMERCIAL.

WITH COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT AREAS ALREADY DESIGNATED, AND IN USE. THE CITY NOW HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND THESE AREAS TO HELP PROMOTE GROWTH IN THE SOUTHWEST REGION. EXISTING UTILITY SERVICES ARE ALSO IN PLACE, WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR SWIFT EXPANSION WEST OF I 71.

THE MOMENTUM FROM RECENT DEVELOPMENTS. PLUS THIS UNLOCKED POTENTIAL MAKE THIS SOUTHWEST GATEWAY, THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH AND INNOVATION. SO WHAT IS THE VISION FOR THE SOUTHWEST REGIONAL MEDICAL AND INNOVATION? GATEWAY? ANYONE WANTING TO ENTER THIS NEWLY DEVELOPED AREA WOULD NEED TO DO SO THROUGH ONE OF TWO ENTRY POINTS WHEN COMING FROM THE EAST. FROM THE NORTH. TRAFFIC WILL COME THROUGH ORDERS ROAD, PRIMARILY RESIDENTIAL, IN CHARACTER, AND FROM THE SOUTH. TRAFFIC WILL ENTER FROM STATE ROUTE 6 65 ADJACENT TO SWAY COZ LANDFILL OPERATIONS AND THROUGH AN AREA WITH AN INDUSTRIAL FOCUS. THIS TRANSITION MAY DISCOURAGE SOME DEVELOPMENT TO LOCATE HERE DUE TO THE CONFLICTING USES. ALTERNATIVELY THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN OVERPASS THAT CONNECTS HOOVER ROAD AND NORTH MEADOWS DRIVE TO HAN ROAD AND AREAS WEST OF I 71 WOULD UNLOCK MORE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE AREA THAT WOULD OTHERWISE NOT BE POSSIBLE , ADDING AN OVERPASS AT THIS LOCATION WILL CREATE AN ADDITIONAL EAST WEST CONNECTION ACROSS THE COMMUNITY. AS MUCH OF THE PLANNED RESIDENTIAL GROWTH EXPANDS THE CITY TO THE SOUTHEAST. THIS NEW CONNECTION WILL BE IMPORTANT TO DISSEMINATE TRAFFIC AND REDUCE THE BURDEN ON THE EXISTING ROADWAY INFRASTRUCTURE. THE NEW OVERPASS WILL ALSO HELP TRAIL CONNECTIVITY AND PROVIDE SAFE CROSSING FOR PEDESTRIANS AND BIKES TO EXPAND ON THE CITY'S GROWING TRAIL NETWORK. NEW MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS WEST OF I 71 BENEFIT FROM THE ABILITY TO EASILY CROSS THE FREEWAY AND REMAIN CONNECTED WITH OTHER MEDICAL CAMPUSES. WITHIN THE GATEWAY. COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP AROUND THE MEDICAL USE TO SUPPORT THOSE WHO ARE EMPLOYED IN THE OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS AND MEET THE

[00:55:02]

GROWING MARKET DEMAND FROM GROVE CITIES GROWING POPULATION. NEW RESIDENTIAL ALONG THE AREAS.

NORTHERN BOUNDARY HELPS TRANSITION FROM THE COMMUNITIES , EXISTING FABRIC AND COMMERCIAL AND OFFICE ENVIRONMENT. THIS MIXING OF ACTIVITIES WILL CREATE WALKABLE STREETS THAT PROMOTE SOCIAL INTERACTION, EXTENDING THAT VIBRANT HOMETOWN FIELD DOWN TO THE SOUTHWEST GATEWAY. A GREENWAY WOULD BE PRESERVED TO CREATE A NATURAL SEPARATION BETWEEN THE MIXED USES OF THE NORTH AND THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE SOUTH. OPPORTUNITIES EXIST IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE GATEWAY FOR THE CREATION OF TECHNOLOGY BASED FLEXIBLE SPACE, INCLUDING OFFICE, INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USES. SIMILAR TO THE FUNDING RECEIVED FOR THE REDESIGN OF THE STATE ROUTE. 6 65 71 INTERCHANGE. THE CITY IS WORKING TO OBTAIN FUNDING TO HELP SUPPORT THE COST OF THE OVERPASS, MUCH AS BUCKEYE PARKWAY, OPEN DEVELOPMENT POSSIBILITIES FOR PARKWAY CENTER IN PINNACLE CLUB. THIS NEW OVERPASS AND CORRESPONDING ROADWAY NETWORK WILL SET THE TONE FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT IN GROVE CITY. THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES OF GROVE CITY, SOUTHWEST REGIONAL, MEDICAL AND INNOVATION. GATEWAY ARE READY TO BE UNLOCKED TO HELP OUR COMMUNITY GROW AND MEET ITS GOALS FOR GENERATIONS TO COME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM THE ADMINISTRATION BEFORE I OPENED IT UP TO THE COUNCIL. MY GOODNESS SAKE. WE ENGAGED A FIRM THAT'S VERY, VERY FAMILIAR WITHD ALL AROUND OHIO AND ACTUALLY, NATIONALS CALLED THE MONTROSE GROUP. WE HAVE TWO GENTLEMEN HERE, TOO. SPEAK TO SPECIFICALLN ALSO ELABORATE ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITIES OF STRATEGIC POSITIONING THAT PARTICULAR AREA. SO I KNOW IF YOU WANTED TO GO FIRST OR DAVID OKAY? YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS DAVE ROBINSON. MINOR DRESSES. 100 EAST BROAD STREET SUITE. 13 40. COLUMBUS, OHIO 43215. MY NAME'S DAVE ROBINSON. I'M PRINCIPAL THE MONTROSE GROUP, AND WE'RE CERTAINLY HONORED TO BE HERE TODAY. TALK ABOUT YOUR SIERRA ISSUES. JUST GONNA TALK BRIEFLY ABOUT OUR FIRM AND THEN AND THEN LET ME JUMP IN. WE BASICALLY DO CORPORATE SITE LOCATION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CONSULTING.

WORK. WE ARE CURRENTLY REPRESENTING. OVER 10 DEVELOPERS AND WORK ALL OVER THE STATE OF OHIO. TAX INCENTIVES. FINANCE. ZONING. YOU GUYS KNOW THE DRILL. FORTUNATE TO BE IN THE MIDDLE OE MILLION SQUARE FEET OF COMBINED SPACE WITH $100 MILLION CAPITAL INVESTMENTS ARE VERY ENGAGED IN THAT. PROCESS ON THE PRIVATE SIDE. ALSO ARE, YOU KNOW, HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF WORKING IN CORPORATE SITE LOCATION WORK FOR COMPANIES, SO WE'VE BEEN ENGAGED ON THAT SIDE OF IT, AND ALSO AN ADVISER TO COMMUNITIES AND TRYING TO HELP THEM FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO SO IF THERE'S AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ACRONYM. A LOT OF EXPERIENCE IN IT, SO OVER TO YOU. MY NAME IS NATE GREEN.

MY ADDRESS IS 100 EAST BROAD STREET SUITE. 13 40. COLUMBUS OHIO 43215. AND I AM THE DIRECTOR OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR THE MONTROSE GROUP. ALMOST GOT MY TITLE IN FOR A MINUTE. SS HERE. MAYOR, STAGE MEMBERS OF COUNCIL. THANK YOU FOR HAVING US HERE THIS EVENING TO DISCUSS THIS WITH YOU. AS DAVE SAID, WE'RE WELL VERSED AND ALL OF THESE DEVELOPMENTS WE DO. WE DO A LOT OF WORK WITH INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTS AND. COMMUNITIES LIKE YOURS, YOUR SIARA, YOU KNOW YOU'RE HERE TONIGHT TO TALK ABOUT THE EXPANSION OF YOUR SIERRA AND I THINK SOME ANNEXATION AS WELL OF THOSE AREAS INTO THE CITY. UM AS THE VIDEO SHOWS LIKE, YOU KNOW, I CAN'T DO IT AS GOOD JUSTICES, THE VIDEO SAID, BUT REALLY THIS SOUTHWEST AREA. FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE, LOOKING AT IT KIND OF HIS EXPERTS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. THIS IS THIS IS REALLY YOUR NEXT GREAT OPPORTUNITY. FOR GROWTH FOR GROWTH'S CITY THAT CAN CONTINUE TO GROW FOR YOUR ECONOMY, YOUR WORKFORCE TO CONTINUE TO GROW AND REALLY CAPITALIZE ON THOSE INVESTMENTS WITH THE MOUNT CARAMEL HOSPITAL. WITH ALL THE OTHER MEDICAL. OFFICE DEVELOPMENTS YOU HAVE YOU KNOW YOU ALSO HAVE THE STATE ROUTE 6 65 INTERCHANGE RIGHT THERE AT 71 THAT GROUP THAT CREATES OTHER OPPORTUNITIES, UH, TO CONTINUE TO CAPITALISM, EMERGENCY EMERGING INDUSTRIES. UM YOU'RE ALL FAMILIAR WITH THE SIERRA PROGRAM. I'M I'M SURE. BUT IN OHIO, THE SIERRA, WHICH IS A TAX ABATEMENT PROGRAM. IT'S ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE, POTENTIALLY

[01:00:03]

THE MOST EFFECTIVE TOOLS THAT WE HAVE. IS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OFFICIALS IN THE STATE WILL HAVE TO TRY TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT AND TRY TO ENCOURAGE INVESTMENT IN IN OHIO. DAVE'S GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHY THAT IS AND THE REASONS THAT WE NEED TO USE THE SIERRA. BUT IT IS ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE TOOLS AND AS I SAID, MAYBE THE MEANS THE MOST EFFECTIVE TOOL THAT WE HAVE. IT IS A STATE TOOL. IT IS A TOOL THAT THE IS IN OHIO STATE STATUTE, BUT IT GIVES MUNICIPALITIES THE ABILITY TO ENACT THAT STATE TOOL AND THE BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER STATES AND OTHER REGIONS AND OTHER COMMUNITIES. TO ATTRACT NEW COMMUNITIES, ARM SORRY, NEW INVESTMENT AND NEW JOBS. YOU WILL HAVE THIS IN FRONT OF YOU, BUT I THINK IT'S. WORK POINTING OUT SOME OF THE SUCCESS YOU'VE HAD WITH YOUR SIENNA. A PROGRAM ? YES DOCUMENTS. ABSOLUTELY I'M SORRY. YEAH I THINK YOU WILL DO. YES, WE DO. THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER SHOP. UM AND I THINK YOU KNOW THAT YOU'VE HAD GREAT SUCCESS. YOU'RE ONE OF THE REAL SUCCESSES OF THAT PROGRAM. UH IN OHIO, NOT JUST IN CENTRAL HIGH BUT ALL ACROSS OHIO, AND YOU HAVE. TIGER POLLY FEDEX TOAST SO WALMART I MEAN, THOSE ARE INCREDIBLE SUCCESS STORIES YOU HAVE. YOU CAN SEE WHERE YOU KNOW WE HAD SOME FOREGONE REAL ESTATE TAXES DURING THIS AREA PERIOD. BUT THE AMOUNT OF TAXES THAT HAVE BEEN GENERATED THE REAL ESTATE TAXES THAT HAVE BEEN GENERATED SINCE THAT TIME HAVE BEEN TREMENDOUS. UM AND THEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT THE CURRENT REAL ESTATE TAXES, THE PRESENT AND FUTURE. WHAT THAT REPRESENTS, IS WHAT IS BEING PAID IN 20. 21 THEN WHAT WILL BE PAID ASSUMING THAT WE DON'T GET ANY INCREASES IN, UM THE VALUE OF THOSE BUILDINGS THAT'S GOING TO PRODUCE MORE SO THAT I THINK THAT REALLY SPEAKS THERE. THAT'S JUST FOR EXAMPLES. THAT REALLY SPEAKS TO WHAT THAT C AREA PROGRAM IS DONE. IN THE INCOME TAXES GENERATED THERE AS WELL.

YOU KNOW, THE INCOME TAXES IS, I BELIEVE YOUR BIGGEST SOURCE OF INCOME IN THE CITY. YOU'RE RIGHT . I'M SORRY. YOUR BIGGEST SOURCE OF REVENUE INCOME TAX INCOME YOUR BIGGEST SOURCE OF REVENUE IN THE CITY. BUT I THINK THERE'S A DIRECT CORRELATION. YOU CAN SEE THAT THE C R A BEING IN PLACE AND THAT INVESTMENT. PRODUCED A LOT OF INCOME TAX ON THE OTHER SIDE, SO IT HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL AND JUST THOSE AND I WAS KIND OF THIS IS THIS IS GREAT. AND I THINK THIS WAS EVEN A LITTLE SURPRISING TO ME. BUT FOR 2020. MM. THOSE FOUR ENTITIES THAT IMAGINE TIGER POLITY FEDEX TOE SO AND WALMART REPRESENTS 16% THE INCOME TAX COLLECTED FROM THOSE ENTITIES REPRESENT 16. OF ALL THE INCOME TAX WITHHOLDINGS WITHIN GROW CITY. THAT'S A BIG DEAL. I MEAN, I THINK THAT'S GREAT. AND AGAIN THAT SPEAKS TO YOUR SUCCESS, AND IT SPEAKS TO WHAT YOU'VE DONE.

IN THE PAST. SO WITH THAT I'M GOING TO TURN OVER TODAY AND HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT WHY WE CAN . INDEED THESE PROGRAMS AND THEN WE'LL TALK A BIT MORE ABOUT SYRIA. YEAH YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY YOU'VE SEEN THAT YOU'RE SEEING AREAS WORKING. YOU KNOW, WE'VE SEEN THEM WORK ALL OVER THE STATE. AND QUITE FRANKLY, THE REASON WE NEED THEM IS THAT YOU KNOW, THE STATE OF OHIO IS NOT.

DOESN'T HAVE A TAX CODE THAT IS OVERLY FRIENDLY TO BUSINESS. IT IS IT'S A HIGH COST STATE. WHEN YOU ADD IN STATE LOCAL TAXES. IT IS PRODUCED SLOW GROWTH IN THE STATE. I KNOW WE DON'T FEEL THAT WAY, BECAUSE QUITE FRANKLY, WE ARE THE PART OF THE STATE THAT IS GROWING AND I THINK A BIG REASON THAT WE ARE GROWING IS THAT THIS REGION? WHETHER IT'S THE WORK YOU'VE DONE OR THE WORK THAT GOES ON AT RICKENBACKER OR WEST JEFFERSON OR. AT THE TOWNSHIP. YOU KNOW YOU NAME IT.

THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF STRONG GROWTH THROUGH THE USE OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS. IT'S PRODUCED RESULTS. YOU KNOW, WE'VE SEEN THAT THERE'S A CHART ON THE SECOND PAGE THAT KIND OF PREPARES US WITH ARIZONA. THAT'S FROM A SITE SELECTION PROJECT. WE DID AND, UM, BELIEVE ME, IT'S NOT CHEAP TO DEVELOP IN PHOENIX . PHOENIX IS GROWING. I THINK EVERYONE IS LEADING CALIFORNIA AND MOVING TO PHOENIX. THERE'S 4.5 MILLION PEOPLE. IN PHOENIX RIGHT NOW. BUT THEIR COST OF GOVERNMENT. ON BUSINESS IS LITERALLY HALF OF WHAT IS IN THE STATE OF OHIO. SO. WE HAVE A LOT OF GREAT SUCCESS IN THIS REGION . I WOULD TELL YOU IT'S FOR A LOT OF REASONS, OBVIOUSLY HAVING A GREAT POOL OF WORKFORCE MATTERS AND BEING A PLACE THAT ATTRACTS A LOT OF PEOPLE. BUT FROM AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STANDPOINT, WHEN IT COMES TO A COMPANY LOOKING AT A SITE, THE BIGGEST THING GOVERNMENT CAN IMPACT OR TAXES. AND THAT THAT ABATEMENT HAS REALLY DEVELOP.

STAN SHAL AMOUNT OF ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES SO. FOR TWO STRAIGHT DAYS. GETTING UP AND DOWN. MAYBE. YOU KNOW, I WAS GOING TO SAY WE'RE GETTING OLD. THIS IS THIS IS TOUGH FOR YOU.

THE NEXT PART. I THINK WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT IS JUST REALLY FUTURE GROWTH IN THAT AREA. YOU KNOW THE THERE WAS A PLAN THAT'S BEEN DONE BY OHH ADVISORS TO REALLY DEVELOPED

[01:05:02]

WHAT THAT AREA COULD LOOK LIKE IN THE SECTORS THAT COULD COME THERE. UM YOU KNOW, AND YOU ALL HAVE THIS IN FRONT OF YOU, BUT. THE SECTORS THAT WERE LOOKED AT MEDICAL OFFICE GENERAL OFFICE INDUSTRIAL LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, RETAIL RESTAURANTS, RESIDENTIAL , UM, ALL OF THOSE HAVE SERIOUS POTENTIAL FOR GROWTH. IN THAT AREA. UM I THINK MEDICAL OFFICE THAT ISN'T THE THAT ISN'T THE BIGGEST ONE. BUT IT'S CERTAINLY REALLY SPEAKS TO WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH MOUNT CARMEL. IT SPEAKS TO WHAT COULD BE POSSIBLE. YOU KNOW, THERE'S I KNOW YOU'VE ALL TALKED ABOUT AN OVERPASS IS THE POTENTIAL FOR AN OVERPASS THAT WOULD EVEN MAKE IT EVEN GREATER FOR THOSE FOR THOSE MEDICAL OFFICE AND EVEN THOSE GENERAL OFFICE TO HAPPEN. JUST BECAUSE OF THAT CONNECTION, AND THEY'RE THEY'RE WANTING TO BE THAT CONNECTION BETWEEN THE HOSPITAL THAT YOU HAVE AND THOSE MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDING. I'M NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH ALL THOSE, I THINK REALLY, THOUGH. WHAT THAT SHOWS IS THAT EACH ONE OF THOSE SEX SECTORS, THERE'S POTENTIAL FOR NEW GROWTH. UM THERE'S THE CENTRAL FOR NOT ONLY OFFICE AND JUST INDUSTRIAL GROWTH. THERE'S ALSO POTENTIAL IN EACH ONE OF THOSE SECTORS FOR JOB GROWTH. AND CAN YOU TO CONTINUE TO GROW YOUR INCOME TAX AND CONTINUE TO GROW YOUR REVENUE? SO THAT'S IMPORTANT, NOT EVERYBODY, NOT EVERY CITY AND IN THE CENTRAL OHIO REGION HAS THAT. WE DEAL WITH A LOT OF CITIES. THE CITY COLUMBUS IS A BIG EXAMPLE. THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THEIR NEXT GROWTH QUARTERS. THEY. YOU KNOW, DON'T HAVE BIG, BIG AREAS OF LAND LIKE THIS ANYMORE THAT THEY CAN LOOK AT AND GO. YOU KNOW WHAT? WE'RE GOING TO GROW FROM THESE AND WE'RE GONNA BE SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE WE SEE GREAT OPPORTUNITIES. YOU HAVE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY IN FRONT OF YOU. AND I THINK YOU SHOULD BE. YOU KNOW, I THINK YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULD ALL BE. APPLAUDED FOR THAT. FOR THE FOR THE VISION THAT JUST HAS COME THAT YOU EVEN HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY IN FRONT OF YOU. UMO THIS, BUT I THINK IT'S JUST WORTH NOTING ONE MAJOR CHALLENGE WITH DEVELOPING THAT CORRIDOR IS THE ONE OF THE SOUTHERN ENTRANCE TO THE PROPERTY IS, YOU KNOW 6 65. WE KNOW THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE ALL THOSE USES THAT I TALKED ABOUT WHETHER IT'S OFFICE OR WHETHER IT'S RESIDENTIAL, WHETHER IT'S GENERAL OFFICE, THEY MAY NOT WANT TO DRIVE BY THIS WEEK OF FACILITY. THEY MIGHT NOT WANT THAT TO BE THERE FRONT ENTRANCE, SO. UM HAVING AN OVERPASS IS CERTAINLY IMPORTANT TO GIVE ANOTHER ENTRANCE INTO THAT INTO THAT INTO THAT SOUTHWEST CORRIDOR AND BE ABLE TO REALLY. CAPITALIZE ON THOSE SECTORS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY GO THERE. SO THAT I THINK IS ONE REASON NOT ONLY TO INCREASE OF APPROVE THE SIERRA EXPANSION, BUT IT'S ALSO ONE REASON TO LOOK AT BUILDING AN OVERPASS. AH YOU HAVE ALL THESE CHARTS IN FRONT OF YOU. UM BUT THERE WAS A RETURN ON INVESTMENT WITH LOOKING AT IF YOU BUILT AND OVERPASS AND IF YOU DIDN'T BUILD AN OVERPASS AND WHAT THAT WOULD MEAN FOR GROWTH. AND WHAT THAT WOULD MEAN FOR GROWTH. EVEN IF YOU HAD TO PAY FOR IT OVER PAST , IT WOULD ALSO, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE TO BUILD AN OVERPASS ON YOUR OWN. UM. YOU KNOW, YOU WOULD GO AFTER STATE FUNDS. YOU WOULD GO AFTER FEDERAL FUNDS TO DO THAT. BUT IF YOU KIND OF LOOK AT THOSE DIFFERENT RETURN ON INVESTMENTS, UM THE FIRST ONE UM. IS WELL, THE FIRST TWO IF YOU KIND OF LOOK AT THE FIRST TWO THAT ARE REALLY WITH NO LONGER PASS AND THE ONE RIGHT BESIDE IT. AH HIS RETURN ON INVESTMENT WITH WITH AN OVERPASS AND 70% OF THE MONEY COMING FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE. AND YOU KNOW IF WE LOOK AND THIS WAS DONE OVER 30 YEARS, BUT. IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT IT MEANS YOUR RETURN ON INVESTMENT, THE MONEY, THE REVENUES THAT ARE GOING TO COME BACK AND CITY WITH WITHOUT THE OVERPASS. IT'S ABOUT $25 MILLION WITH AN OVERPASS. AND WITH AN OVERPASS AND HAVING TO PAY SOME OF THAT MONEY FOR THE OVERPASS. WE'RE LOOKING AT RETURN OF OVER $35 MILLION.

THAT'S THAT'S ANOTHER $10 MILLION OVER AND ABOVE. WHAT WE COULD WE WOULD LOOK AT WITHOUT THE OVERPASS. THE OTHER THE OTHER TWO HERE, THERE'S. THERE'S A COMPARISON OF REALLY THE JOBS , THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AND THE NEW COMMUNITY AUTHORITY, WHICH I'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WITH AN OVERPASS WITHOUT AN OVERPASS BY THE WAY AROUND WITHOUT AN OVERPASS WITH AN OVERPASS AND THEN THE DIFFERENCE. AND YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE IS THERE I MEAN, YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCES JOBS? THERE'S A PROJECTED THAT THERE'D BE 1400 MORE JOBS WITH THE OVERPASS. ALMOST 1400.

THERE'D BE ALMOST MORE THAN $800,000 IN SQUARE FEET BUILT IN THAT CORRIDOR WITH AN OVERPASS.

THE NEW COMMUNITY AUTHORITY. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT TRUCK HAD TALKED ABOUT BEING A PIECE OF THE FUNDING FOR THIS SITE IN THIS AREA. THE NEW COMMUNITY AUTHORITY COULD FUND INFRASTRUCTURE. IT CAN HELP YOU FUND THAT OVER PASSING AND HELP FUND SOON AND WATER INTO THE AREA COULD FIND OTHER ROADS. UM AND WITHOUT AN OVERPASS. WE'RE LOOKING AT ROUGHLY $18 MILLION

[01:10:01]

WITH THE OVERPASS THAT WOULD GIVE US 39 MILLION MORE THAN $20 MILLION. PROBLEM IN IN REVENUE WITH THE OVERPASS AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS JUST A TAX REVENUE COMPARISON. IT REALLY. TALK TO MORE. IT KIND OF LOOKS AT YOUR RETURN ON INVESTMENT, AND THEN IT LOOKS AT THE BIG LINE. THERE IS THE MUNICIPAL INCOME TAX WITH THE OVERPASS AND PLACE THESE NUMBERS. I DIDN'T TALK ABOUT ALL THE NUMBERS THAT ARE IN THOSE DIFFERENT. SCENARIOS OF INDUSTRY SECTORS. BUT THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT THOSE NUMBERS CAME FROM, UM, THAT IF YOU LOOK AT THAT LAST PAGE, THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT CALCULATIONS CAME FROM LOOKING AT. THE PROJECTED GROWTH BY SECTOR AND SO IT TOOK THE PROJECTED GROWTH. WHAT THE PROPERTY TAXES WILL BE EVEN WITH THE SEE ARABIAN PLACE. IT TOOK AN IMPACT OF. THE NEW JOBS THAT WOULD BE IN PLACE AND THE INCOME TAX WOULD BE COME FROM THOSE JOBS, AND IT ALSO TOOK FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE SECTORS IT DETERMINED OR PROJECTED. WHAT THE CAPITAL INVESTMENT WILL BE BASED ON, UM, INDUSTRY NORMS FOR THOSE SECTORS, MEDICAL OFFICE GENERAL OFFICE RESIDENTIAL RETAIL INDUSTRIAL, SO THAT'S HOW THE THAT'S HOW THOSE ARE. Y NUMBERS WERE WERE ARRIVED AT. SO UM, I THINK WE'RE THAT MADE. YOU WANT TO KIND OF SUMMARIZE EVERYTHING AND. MR GREEN BEFORE ROBINSON DOES THAT JUST TO POINT OUT AND PAGE THREE RETURN ON INVESTMENT WITH. NO OVERPASS AND ONE WITH OVER PAST YOUR LEFT HAND COLUMNS. THEY ARE DIFFERENT MAGNITUDES THERE, SO DON'T JUST LOOK AT THE DASH LINE THERE. THE BLUE DASH LINE. UM YOUR COLUMN ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF EACH OF THOSE IS, UM. THE ACTUAL INDEX. THERE IS A LITTLE HIS INDEX DIFFERENTLY, SO JUST DON'T LOOK AT THE LINE THERE. FRED. LOOK AT THE NUMBERS ON THE SIDE. THAT'S THAT'S A GREAT POINT. THANK YOU . THANK YOU, MR ROBINSON. YEAH YOU KNOW, I WOULD JUST CONCLUDE BY SAYING THAT YOU KNOW, IT'S TO ME. IT'S A FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THAT IF YOU WANT.

CREATION OF HIGH WAGE JOBS AND CAPITAL INVESTMENT, WHICH IS OUR BUSINESS, WHICH IS WHAT WHAT WE DO. YOU PROMOTE INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT AND YOU BUILD AND YOU BUILD A TAX CODE AND. SERIOUS ATTACKS AND SET UP TO ATTRACT INDUSTRY. IT SEEMS LIKE THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT DOING RIGHT NOW. SO WE'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR OR WHATEVER ELSE YOU GUYS WHICH THERE. COMMENTS FROM MORE QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS. ALL RIGHT. MM GO AHEAD. WHY DON'T YOU ASK THOSE QUESTIONS? THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN. FIRST OF ALL. I'M GONNA ADDRESS CHUCK, IF THAT'S OKAY, SIR. SURE. ABSOLUTELY. I UNDERSTAND. YOU KNOW, THE. COURSE THE LANDFILLS THE LANDFILL. WE CAN'T DO MUCH ABOUT THAT. THAT'S NOT GOING TO LEAVE US OR IT'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE THERE. SO I UNDERSTAND ALL THE WORK YOU GUYS HAVE PUT FORTH TRYING TO CREATE UM. A SITUATION THAT'S ACTUALLY GOOD FOR THE CITY AS FAR AS ATTRACTING MEDICAL AND THAT TYPE OF THING, AND I UNDERSTAND. UM YOU KNOW, WHEN WE LOOK AT WHEN WE LOOK AT TIFFS, AND I'M ASSUMING THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO. FOR THE MONEY TO GO INTO OR WE'LL GO INTO A SIERRA. A NEW COMMUNITY AUTHORITY SO THAT WILL PAY FOR THE INFRASTRUCTURE, THE ROADS AND THINGS IN THE IN THAT. IN THAT AREA. CORRECT CERTAINLY BE EARMARKED FOR THAT WILL PAY FOR IT ALL, PROBABLY NOT ANOTHER DEVELOPER CONTRIBUTIONS IN TERMS OF AS THE PROPERTY DEVELOPS. SO OVER THE YEARS AND I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU AND THE MAYOR ABOUT THIS IS. YOU KNOW, WE'RE ALWAYS GOING AFTER THAT THAT ISSUE OF IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING SOMEBODY ELSE WILL MEANING. SWEET GO AND I'M JUST GOING TO THROW THAT THROUGH THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. AND YOU KNOW, COULD EXPAND ACROSS THE ROAD. AND HOW WOULD THAT LOOK? AND HOW WOULD THAT AFFECT OUR COMMUNITY? WE CAN ONLY CONTROL IT IF WE IF IT'S WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS THE USES AND THAT TYPE OF THING. SO I GUESS, YOU KNOW. THE EXPANDING THE SIERRA IN THOSE AREAS IS A GOOD THING. HOWEVER I GOT I GOT. I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, MAYBE IT'S TO THE MIRROR. WE ANNEXED THAT ONE. PROPERTY TO THE CORNER. CORRECT THE ONE THAT'S CLEAR OVER HERE AT. IT HARRISBURG PIKE AND ORDERS WE HAVE NOT COUNCIL DID, UH, AND LET'S SEE. NOVEMBER OF 20. AUTHORIZED AN AGREEMENT WITH THE SITE OWNERS THAT THAT WOULD BE ANNEXED OR COULD BE ANNEXED. AND PART OF THAT IS PART OF THE OTHER ANNEXATIONS AND PANIC WOULD BE THAT THEY WOULD COME IN AS AGRICULTURAL, WHICH I THINK IS IMPORTANT POINT AND ALL THE AND AGAIN THIS GOES INTO THE NEXT. LEGISLATION SEATS 71. WHERE THERE'S APPROXIMATELY 564 ACRES. THAT WOULD COME. MUCH OF THAT ACREAGE TODAY IS OWN INDUSTRIAL IN THE TOWNSHIP. IT'S

[01:15:09]

MY PERSONAL OPINION THAT ARE AT LEAST INDUSTRIAL STANDARDS ARE MUCH HARDER LEVEL THAN IS IN THE TOWNSHIP. AND I THINK IF YOU COULD DRIVE AROUND, YOU CAN SEE THOSE ISSUES LIKE THROAT COVE ROAD. RIGHT SO WHAT THIS DOES IS IN TERMS OF. THE LEGISLATION THAT BRINGS THESE IN NOT ONLY AS IN THE SIERRA AND ANNEXATION. ALL THESE PROPERTIES IN TERMS OF THE ANNEXATION PROPERTIES THAT.

564 ACRES LESS, I THINK 18 ACRES. WOULD COME INTO THE CITY. AGRICULTURAL. THAT MEANS THIS COUNCIL WOULD THAT WILL HAVE THE ABILITY OR THE RESPONSIBILITY TO REZONE. I THINK THAT PUTS US IN A GOOD POSITION IN TERMS OF PROTECTING THAT AREA. SUDDENLY WHEN YOU READ NOW, IN TERMS OF WHAT. SOME ENTITIES WANT TO DO WITH THAT AREA YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. MATERIAL RECOVERY FACILITIES. MERV'S COMPOST FACILITIES. WE HAVE TO NOT ONLY PROTECT THAT 600 ACRES THAT WILL COME IN, BUT IT ALSO AFFECTS ANOTHER 500 ACRES AROUND IT. AND IF WE DON'T PROTECT IT, I'M AFRAID THAT WE'RE GOING TO LOSE AN OPPORTUNITY TO, UH NOT NOT ONLY FROM A BID LAND USE STANDPOINT IN TERMS OF CREATING COMMERCE AND REVENUE. I THINK IT COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON EXISTING PROPERTY AROUND. AND I HAVE QUESTIONS WHEN WE GET TO THE NEXT PIECE OF LEGISLATION ON EXHIBIT C, BUT I DO APPRECIATE ON ALL OF THEM THAT YOU DID BRING THEM IN HIS BAG. SO WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO KNOW YOU KNOW, THE ONE THING THAT YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALWAYS A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT DON'T CRITICIZE PEOPLE FROM. FRONT YOU KNOW GOVERNMENTS FOR DOING ABATEMENTS . BUT HERE HERE'S A SITUATION WHERE WHAT DO WE DO IF WE DON'TO YOU KNOW, WE LEAVE THE SOUTHERN BORDER OF THE CITY UP TO SUITE CO. INSTEAD OF INSTEAD OF UP TO WHAT'S GOOD FOR GROWTH CITY. AND EVERYTHING, ARE YOU? SO I APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK YOU GUYS HAVE DONE. I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A JOURNEY FOR YOU GUYS OVER THE LAST FIVE MONTHS DOING ALL THIS STUFF. IT'S A LOT OF WORK TO MEET WITH ALL THESE PEOPLE PUT ALL THESE. PIECES TOGETHER AND, YOU KNOW, I KNOW THERE'S SEVERAL MEDICAL FACILITIES THAT ARE LOOKING AT GROUPS CITY AND I KNOW THAT OVER PRATT PASSES VERY IMPORTANT AS FAR AS CONNECTIVITY TO MOUNT CARMEL AND OTHER AREAS, BUT SAW. I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS AND AGAIN, I THINK WE ALL REALIZE THAT THE DISCUSSION THAT OCCURS IN TERMS OF TAX ABATEMENT. IS IT GOOD OR BAD? I THINK THE NUMBERS THAT BEFORE YOU SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES, AND JUST SO THE AUDIENCE KNOWS, JUST SAYS THIS SIMPLE. THAT EXAMPLE OF WHAT. SAY THE WALMART DISTRIBUTION FACILITY TODAY THEY'RE PAYING THE SCHOOL DISTRICT $645,000 A YEAR THEY'VE BEEN PAYING THAT JOB FOR OVER 10 YEARS. MAYBE CLOSER TO 15 YEARS. JACKSON TOWNSHIP $180,000. SO YOU MULTIPLY THESE BY OLDER THE ABATEMENTS THAT WE HAVE IN MANY OF THEM HAVE BURNED OFF IN.

THESE COMPANIES ARE STILL HERE AND EAT THEM. THEY'RE NOT HERE. THOSE STRUCTURES ARE STILL TAXED. AT THIS RATE, SO. I THINK THE MOST PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THIS LEGISLATION. THESE TWO PIECES OF LEGISLATION. YES 15 YEAR TAX ABATEMENT IS A SHORT SHORT WINDOW IN THE EVOLUTION OF THE CITY. HOWEVER THE ZONING CONSEQUENCES THAT MAY OCCUR AREE HAVE TO PROTECT THOSE AND EVERYTHING THIS GIVES COUNCIL THE ABILITY TO PROTECT THAT AREA THROUGH SOMETHING WHEN THEY COME IN AS AGRICULTURAL. THESE THE NEXT CITY COUNCIL GETS SPEAKING DETERMINE WHAT THAT ZONING IS, AND I THINK THAT IS A FAR GREATER. RESPONSIBILITY AND A FAR GREATER. THING THAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT BESIDES OF 15 YEAR TAX BASE THINK.

QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. YES. YES MR SHARKEY. THANK YOU. AND YOU KNOW, THIS IS MY PARENTS ARE REALLY GONNA BE TIED PROBABLY TO THE NEXT TWO PIECE OF LEGISLATION AND GET THEM OUT HERE NOW AND YOU WON'T HEAR FROM ME IN ROUND TWO. UH I PROMISE THAT THIS GOES BACK TO FOR ME AND. THE CONVERSATION THAT WAS HAD I THINK IN SEPTEMBER OF 2020. TIED TO, UH. THE BLUEGRASS PARK DEVELOPMENT AND I KNOW THAT PROPERTY IS LISTED IN THIS DISCUSSION. AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT I'VE JUST BEEN TRYING TO. BRING MYSELF ALONG AND I CAN'T GET THERE. SO I UM. I THINK FOR ME. I HAVE DIFFICULTY WITH THE UNDERLYING VISION FOR, UM WHAT WE BELIEVE WE CAN GET ACCOMPLISHED HERE. I HAVE DIFFICULTY WITH THE FACT THAT WE SEEM TO BE MAPPING OUT A

[01:20:02]

STRATEGY AND TRYING TO CIRCUMVENT WACO INSTEAD OF. COMING UP WITH A AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO HOW WE ARE GOING TO HANDLE THAT ENTIRE CORRIDOR. I THINK THAT THERE ARE PIECES OF THIS. THIS EXPANSION THAT DO NOT BELONG IN HERE, SO THERE ARE SOME COMPELLING REASONS THAT SOME PARCELS I BELIEVE SHOULD BE IN AND THEN OTHERS THAT I FEEL LIKE. DO NOT BELONG, AND IT'S KIND OF ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE I CAN'T UNKNOWN. WHAT I KNOW I CAN'T UNHEEDED WHAT I'VE HEARD. AND THEN FINALLY, I THINK THAT THIS INFORMATION THAT WE'VE BEEN PRESENTED WITH THIS WEEKEND AND ELABORATED ON THIS EVENING FOR ME IS MORE MARKETING AND PROPAGANDA TIED TO THESE ECONOMIC INCENTIVES, AND I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE IN THEIR ABILITY TO IMPACT. THE COMMUNITY POSITIVELY. BUT I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE SEEN US AT SOME POINT IN TIME. HAVE A CRITICAL ANALYSIS DISCUSSION WHERE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MORE THAN. JUST WHAT HAPPENS FINANCIALLY. BUT TALKING ABOUT WHAT ARE THE NON FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS OF A PROJECT LIKE THIS, AS LIKE, WHAT IS THE WHAT ARE THE NOT A VISION FOR WHAT OUR FUTURE WILL BE LIKE THIS? FOR THE OVERPASS. SO MANY PIECES OF IT THAT I FEEL HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE AIR TIME THAT THEY DESERVE AND LIKE, I SAID.

MY CONVERSATIONS WITH RESIDENTS MY FOLLOWING MY HUSBAND AROUND ALL WEEKEND WITH A CUP OF COFFEE . I'VE TRIED TO GET MYSELF THERE. I'M NOT THERE. IF I COULD, MR SHOCKED? YES, MR. JUST JUST A FEW COMMENTS. WE ARE NOT CIRCUMVENTING WACO. AND I LIKED YOUR TERM ABOUT PROPAGANDA.

BECAUSE. THE PR EFFORTS BEING MADE BY SWAY CO RIGHT NOW. I WOULDN'T CALL HIM HARDCORE PROPAGANDA. BUT I WOULD SAY THEY'RE PAINTING A PICTURE THAT WERE NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH. NOW THEY CAN CONTINUE TO PAINT THEIR PICTURE BECAUSE THEY CONTACTED OTHER PROPERTY OWNERS THAT WE HAVE CONTACTED WHO ARE NOW BEING AN EX. AND I'LL GIVE YOU A PRIME EXAMPLE THE PROPERTY THAT IS IN GREEN. RIGHT ABOVE WHERE THE SIGNER PROPERTY IS. IS GOING TO BE DEVELOPED AS. AN AREA WHERE THERE WILL BE SMALL OUTBUILDING. SOMETHING SYSTEMS. AND THEY WILL BE IN THE TOWNSHIP. WE HAVE NO SAY IN IT. NO LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS WILL HAVE ANOTHER DOLLAR GENERAL SITTING ON BROADWAY. THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO CONTROL. WE HAVE THAT PROPERTY NORTH OF THEM AND THE PROPERTY SOUTH OF THEM. NOW THE CITY GROW CITY IS IN CONTROL OF AT LEAST THREE TO DEVELOP.

THIS IS A STRATEGIC DECISION. BUCKEYE PARKWAY WAS A STRATEGIC DECISION IN 1986. IF YOU DON'T MAKE THESE KINDS OF CISION NOW SOMEBODY ELSE IS GONNA MAKE THEM FOR YOU. AND I WOULD SAY THE SECOND PIECES THAT LITTLE PIECE OF IT'S IN PINK. THAT'S RIGHT ABOVE THE DARK GREEN ON THE BY INTERSTATE 71. THERE'S ANOTHER EXAMPLE THAT WAS GOING TO BE DEVELOPED AS OUTBUILDINGS AND A SMALL SERVICE BUILDING. NO ZONING FORTUNE AVAILABLE IN THE TOWNSHIP SO RIGHT ON INTERSTATE 71. WE ARE NOW PUTTING A NIGHT UM, THAT IT'S GOING TO BE IN OUR CONTROL NOT ONLY CONTROL THE TOWNSHIP NOT UNDER CONTROL, VERY, VERY LOOSE ZONING REQUIRED. SO WHEN YOU SAY WE'RE PUTTING OUT PROPAGANDA IS NOT PROBABLY THE END OF THIS IS FINE. IF WE DON'T TAKE THESE PROPERTIES IN AND WE DON'T ENACT THEM, AND WE DON'T GET SOMETHING SET AGE, ROUTINELY SITTING HERE 10 YEARS AND SAYING, WHY IS THAT? LIKE THE BUILDING ANOTHER DOLLAR GENERAL? SENDING THE GATEWAY OF OUR COMMUNITY. THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT'S GONNA BE. ARE WE CERTAIN? VENEZUELA? ABSOLUTELY NOT. THIS PARTICULAR PRESENTATION WE HAD TONIGHT. I'M GOING TO MAKE IT RAIN AND HOPEFULLY GOING TO BE ABLE TO GO DOWN THIS WEEK CAUSE BOARD MEETING AND PRESENTED BECAUSE IT'S TIME TO PUT OUR VISION OUT THERE FOR ALL OF FRANKLIN KIND, UNDERSTAND? THAT WE HAVE A BEIJING WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MORE MEDICAL GOING TO HAVE MORE RESEARCH. WE WANT TO HAVE MORE INDUSTRIAL LIGHT INDUSTRIAL AND WE'RE GONNA. WE RIDE OUR OWN BOOK, SO I THINK THAT SAYING THAT WE'RE DOING PROPAGANDA, AND WE HAVEN'T DONE THAT CRITICAL ANALYSIS IS WRONG. WE HAVE DONE A CRITICAL ANALYSIS. WALMART IS A PRIME EXAMPLE. YOU CAN'T WRITE A TEXTBOOK ANYMORE CLEARER THAN THAT, AND THE NUMBERS THAT WERE SHOWN TONIGHT THAT ONE MILLION OF ANNUAL REAL ESTATE TAXES THAT'S FOREVER. IT'S NOT FOR 15 YEARS IT FOREVER. SO WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING BY CASTING A VISION AND MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE MAKING OUR NEXT GENERATION HAVE AVAILABLE TO THEM SOME THINGS AND WE DEALT WITH SOME DISCIPLINE. NOT LIKELY IT WILL BE IF WE DON'T DO ANYTHING SO AND THE POINTS. THANK YOU. AND MAYOR. I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT ONE. SO I ABSOLUTELY WAS

[01:25:06]

NOT TRYING TO INSULT YOUR CONVICTIONS ON THAT TOPIC. SO I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT AND THE OTHER PIECE OF IT IS. YOU'RE HAVING THE DISCUSSIONS AND BRINGING US ALL ALONG WITH YOU ON THOSE DISCUSSIONS ARE JUST TWO VERY DIFFERENT THINGS AND SO AGAIN ON THE WEEKEND BEFORE MY COMMENT WAS REALLY DIRECTED AT THE FACT THAT WHAT WE GOT WAS A MARKETING PIECE VERSUS.

IMMEDIATE CRITICAL ANALYSIS, AND THAT'S JUST WHAT I NEEDED PERSONALLY. PLAY. ONE IT WAS SHOCKING. FIRST NAME. I'M A FAN OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. AS I SAID PREVIOUSLY, ECONOMICS IS MY MAIN FOCUS. A LIGHT I LOVE WATCHING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. MOST PEOPLE'S EYES GLAZE OVER AND THEY HEAR THE WORDS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. BUT IT EXCITES ME. DON'T KNOW WHY. AND I DO AGREE THAT, UH, OHIO IS NOT THE BEST FOR BUSINESS. I THINK WE'RE LIKE THE NINTH HIGHEST FOR GOOD NIGHT FROM THE TOP OF THE MOST TAX BUSINESS STATE AND I WOULD HONESTLY LOWERING TEXAS FOR A SHORT WHILE HELPS A FEW BUSINESSES THEN. I'D BE OPEN TO IN THE FUTURE LOWERING PROPERTY TAXES ACROSS THE BOARD. NEVER DISCUSSED. BUT I DO KNOW THAT IT SEEMS SOMETIMES AND THIS IS NOT AN INDICTMENT OF ANYONE HERE OR ANYONE IN THE CITY. IT SEEMS SOMETIMES FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, SPEAKING TO PEOPLE WITH THE CITY AND SPEAKING TO PEOPLE WITH WACO. WHO ARE YOU KNOW, RIGHT? THERE WERE KIND OF HORSE SHOOTING UP. IT SEEMS OFTEN THAT WE COME OUT OF HER ADVERSARIAL PLACE. GROUP CITY AND SO WACO, WACO AND GROUPS AND HE TOTO TWO PEOPLE IN A RING FIGHTING EACH OTHER, TRYING TO FIGHT FOR DOMINANCE TO BE THE BEST ONE AROUND. THAT'S NOT WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE. BECAUSE GROVE CITY WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE. WACO THEY'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE. AT LEAST FOR A LONG TIME. SO INSTEAD OF TRYING AND THIS IS AGAIN NO INDICTMENT OF ANYONE. THIS IS JUST FROM WHAT I CAN TELL. IT'S NOT. I'M SAYING THAT IT IS ANYONE'S GOAL IN LIFE IS TO FIGHT WITH SWANGO. PERHAPS WE GO FIGHT WITH CURB CITY. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SWAQA AND GROUP CITY INSTEAD OF ONE OF THEM, SAYING, HERE'S WHAT I'M DOING DEAL WITH IT. PERSUADE CO. AND GROUPS LIKE ALRIGHT, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS? GREAT HERE MY PLANS. HOW CAN WE MAKE THESE WORK TOGETHER? HOW CAN WE FIND A WAY THAT EVERYBODY CAN MOVE FORWARD BECAUSE, LIKE IT OR NOT, I KNOW I GREW UP AT 62 6 65. IF YOU LOOK DOWN HERE I AM THIS LITTLE CORNER RIGHT OUTSIDE THE SIGNERS FARM ON THE FAR LEFT OF THIS MAP. THAT'S WHERE I GREW UP. I SAW THE LANDFILL GROW FOR 20 YEARS. I DIDN'T NECESSARILY LIKE IT, BUT IT'S THERE AND WE NEED A PLACE FOR OUR WASTE TO GO. SO THEY'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE. WE NEED THEM . THEY PROVIDE A VALUABLE PUBLIC SERVICE, WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT. JUST LIKE THE LOUD SIRENS WE HEAR FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT . I LIKE IT THAT WE HAVE A FIRE DEPARTMENT. EVEN IF THEY KEEP ME UP AT 10 AT NIGHT, SOMETIMES. SO I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE CITY AND SWEET LITTLE. SIT DOWN AND TRY TO FIND AN AMICABLE SOLUTION TO THE ANIMOSITY THAT SEEMS TO EXIST BETWEEN BOTH OF THESE AUTHORITIES. THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? OKAY UM, MR SHOT SKILL.

YES MR SLOVAK. I. I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANIMOSITY. FRANKLIN. WE? WE'VE WORKED WITH HIM FOR A MOMENT A YEAR AND A HALF ON THEIR PLAN. THE THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO GO CITY IS THAT WE HAVE 300 ACRES. THAT WE. FOUR PUT PUT IN PLACE. TO THE BENEFIT OF FUTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

UNFORTUNATELY, GO BY. WE HAVE ABOUT $9 MILLION INVESTED IN THAT PROPERTY 300 ACRES. WE HAVE NOT MADE ONE RED SET. WITH ANIMOSITY. IT'S PROBABLY NOT THERE. IT'S AN ANXIETY OF HOW MUCH MORE DO WE HAVE TO DO TO START GETTING SOME OF THEIR DOLLARS RETURN? AND SMOKERS NOT BEING ABLE TO ANSWER THAT THEY WILL NOT SPEND OFF ANY LAND AND THEREFORE WE HAVE THOSE 300 ACRES, WHICH ARE NOT PART OF THIS SCENARIO, BUT IT HAS AN IMPLICATION TO WHY WE'RE WHERE WE ARE, AND I WOULDN'T TURN IT INTO BOSTON. WE'RE PLAYING ON HOW TO MEETING WITH HIM AND TALK ABOUT WHAT WE SAID. YES. GO AHEAD. PERHAPS ANIMOSITY IS NOT THE RIGHT WORD. THAT'S JUST THE WORD THAT CAME TO MIND THE MOMENT BUT THERE'S AN ADVERSARIAL. BACK AND FORTH SOMETIMES AND NOT SAYING THAT'S AN INDICTMENT OF ANYONE UP HERE AS A PURPOSEFUL ANALYSIS, IT'S JUST SOMETIMES WHAT I PERCEIVE THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. AND YOU KNOW THIS IS AN ECONOMIC GENERATOR. THIS IS AN ECONOMIC ENGINE FOR CITIES. WE HAVE ASKED USED ECONOMIC ENGINES BEFORE BUCKEYE PARKWAY. UM THE BUCKEYE TO FOLLOW ALONG STRENGTH TOWN ROAD WITH ALL YOUR SHOPPING AND YOUR WE'VE USED YOUR. MONEY WISELY FROM THERE TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE DEVELOPMENT IN THE

[01:30:01]

CITY. UM ALL OF THE DIFFERENT ECONOMIC ENGINES THAT ARE AVAILABLE. THESE PREVIOUS SIERRAS, THE ONE THAT'S THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ARE BRINGING IN MEDICAL OFFICES AROUND MOUNT CARMEL. UM JUST ALL THOSE TYPES OF THINGS. THIS IS SIMPLY ANOTHER ECONOMIC GENERATOR FOR US FOR THE FUTURE. IN WHAT YOU DO IS JUST LIKE ANYTHING ELSE YOU GIVE. WE'RE GIVING UP A LITTLE BIT AT TIMES, AND IN THE LONG RUN, WE'RE REAPING GREAT BENEFITS FROM. SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT BEFORE I OPEN THIS UP TO THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO SPEAK, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY STATED MY VIEWPOINT ON HERE. SO ANDREA BENTON. NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE. ADRIAN BENTON 3603 ZUBA ROAD. I'M COMING TO YOU TODAY WITH CONCERNS REGARDING THE SIERRA THAT'S ON THE AGENDA, PARTICULARLY THE TWO PROPERTIES ON SUBARU, THE BOTTOM FURTHER SOUTH ONES. I'M NOT AN EXPERT ON SIERRA'S, BUT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE ONGOING PRACTICE OF CRS IN GROVE CITY ISN'T. EXACTLY NECESSARY. UM SO I HAD TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH AND, ACCORDING TO THEIN OHIO STE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION, SIERRA'S OUR COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT AREAS PERMIT MOVEMENT MUNICIPALITIES TO DESIGNATE AREAS. WHERE INVESTMENT HAS BEEN LACKING TO ENCOURAGE REVITALIZATION OF THE EXISTING HOUSING, STOCK AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW STRUCTURES.

OHIO SIERRA PROGRAM WAS CREATED TO PROMOTE REVITALIZATION AND DEPRESSED AREAS. BY OFFERING PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS. THE KEYWORDS THAT I READ IN THESE SENTENCES ARE AREAS WHERE INVESTMENT HAS BEEN LAGGING AND TO PROMOTE REVITALIZATION AND DEPRESSED AREAS. AS SOMEONE WHO SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE MINUS FOUR YEARS OF COLLEGE IN THE GROVE CITY AREA. I CAN TELL YOU FROM MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE THAT GROVE CITY IS THRIVING AND GROWING AT AN EXPONENTIAL RATE.

THIS HAS INCREASED MORE SO OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS. DEVELOPMENTS IN NEIGHBORHOODS ARE SPRINGING UP. EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK AND BY TAKING A GLANCE OF THE GIRL CITY DEVELOPMENT WEBSITE. THERE ARE 40 PROJECTS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION WITHIN THE CITY, AND YOU KNOW THERE'S MANY MORE IN PROCESS. THIS CERTAINLY DOES NOT SOUND TO ME LIKE A CITY WHERE INVESTMENT AND DEVELOPMENTS ARE LACKING. WHAT IS LACKING, HOWEVER, IS THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT COMES WITH BUILDING HOMES IN PROFITING IN OUR AREA. IF MY INTERPRETATION OF THE FRANKLIN COUNTY TAX ABATEMENT DASHBOARD IS CORRECT GROUP CITY AND FRANKLIN COUNTIES , TAX FUNDED PROGRAMS HAVE LAST OUT ON $5.8 MILLION IN TAX REVENUE. DUE TO EXISTING SIERRA IS JUST FOR TAX YEAR 2020.

THAT'S ONE HERE NOW. THE DASHBOARD DOES NOT MENTION WHATM INCOME TAXES. BUT OF THIS $3.4 MILLION COULD HAVE GONE TOWARDS OUR FUNDING OUR SCHOOLS WHERE TEACHERS, STAFF AND BUS DRIVERS ARE OVERWORKED AND UNDERPAID. IN OUR CLASSROOMS ARE BUSTING AT THE SEAMS AND WITH THE PROPOSED 1200 NEW HOMES AND GROVE CITY, THE QUESTION ON EVERY RESIDENTS MIND IS WHERE THESE KIDS ARE GOING TO GO TO SCHOOL. RATHER THAN PLANNING LOCATIONS FOR NEW SCHOOLS. WHAT LITTLE PRECIOUS LAND WE HAVE LEFT IS BEING STRIPPED OF ITS TAXABLE VALUE AND DEVELOPED PUTTING EVEN MORE STRAIN ON OUR OVERBURDENED INFRASTRUCTURE. GRAB CITY IN JACKSON TOWNSHIP HAS LOST OUT ON $1.2 MILLION FOR TAX YEAR 2020. THESE FUNDS COULD HAVE BEEN USED TO ADDRESS THE INFRASTRUCTURE CONCERNS THAT YOUR RESIDENTS CONSISTENTLY CRY OUT FOR YOU TO IMPROVE. WITH THE CONTINUED INDUSTRIAL AND RESIDENTIAL GROWTH IN GROVE CITY. WE SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD TO CONTINUE SIERRA AGREEMENTS, PARTICULARLY SINCE OUR ROADS SERVICING THE CR AGREEMENTS, ESPECIALLY ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE CITY ARE ALREADY INADEQUATE TO SUPPORT THEIR CURRENT TRAFFIC DEMANDS.

OUR LAND IS FAR TOO VALUABLE AND THE LOSSES OVER THE 15 YEAR PERIOD OF MOST OF THESE TAX ABATEMENTS AS FAR TOO GREAT. I ENCOURAGE EACH OF YOU TO CONSIDER THIS PART OF VOTING ON THE SIERRA AGREEMENT TONIGHT. IF NOT FOR YOURSELVES, BUT FOR THE FUTURE OF GRAHAM CITY RESIDENTS WHO MUCH LIKE MYSELF, YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN HOPE TO CONTINUE TO CONQUER OF CITY AREA HOME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OKAY? YES. I DON'T KNOW. JUST CHUCK WINNER RESPOND TO RESPOND TO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WERE MENTIONED THERE. UM BECAUSE THERE WAS SOME THERE'S SOME I DON'T WANT TO SAY MISINFORMATION THERE. UM, BUT THERE'S. WELL I MEAN, YOU MENTIONED SCHOOLS AND EVERYTHING . FIRST OF ALL, THE CITY, THE CITY OF GROUPS CITY DOES NOT FUND SCHOOLS. WE, THE STATE OF OHIO FUND SCHOOLS WHEN IT COMES TO THE PROPERTY TAX AND EVERYTHING. JUST KIND OF A SIERRA. I'VE BEEN AROUND AWHILE , SO IT'S NEVER CRM 101 100 CLASS BACON PROPERTY COLLECTS THIS MUCH, ALMOST THIS MUCH IN TAX FOR SCHOOLS. WHEN A CRE GOES INTO EFFECT. BASICALLY, WHAT IT'S DOING IS IT'S CREATING ENOUGH MONEY FOR INFRASTRUCTURE

[01:35:04]

. IT CREATES ENOUGH MONEY TO ATTRACT HIGH PAYING JOBS, NOT WAREHOUSES AND THAT TYPE OF THING. TO SUPPORT OUR AREAS, SO THOSE TAXES, INCOME TAXES SUPPORT THE CITY, THE PROPERTY TAX WHEN THAT COMES OFF, AND THAT'S WHY THE MIRROR WAS SHOWING THIS DOCUMENT WHEN THOSE SERIOUS COME OFF. THERE'S MULTIPLE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT GO TO THE SCHOOLS BECAUSE IT'S NOW AN INCREASED VALUE. EVALUATION OF PROPERTY TAX, SO. IT'S VERY ALL THIS IS VERY COMPLICATED, AND I'M MORE THAN WELCOME TO SIT DOWN WITH YOU AND GO OVER WITH YOU. I MEAN, AS MISS HAWK SAID, MAYBE THERE'S AN EDUCATIONAL THING. WE NEED TO GO GO THROUGH HERE A LITTLE BIT AS WELL WITH THE COMMUNITY. BEFORE WE DO THIS, BUT. WHEN IT COMES TO ROAD IMPROVEMENTS. MOST OF THESE ROADS ARE OUT IN THE TOWNSHIP THAT WERE WELL THEY ARE OUT IN THE TOWNSHIP. SO THE CITY GROWS. CITY DOESN'T HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER THOSE ROADS ARE DOESN'T DOESN'T FIX THOSE ROADS.

IF THEY WERE INSIDE OF THE CITY LIMITS OF GROVE CITY. THEN, OF COURSE, THE CITY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ROADS AND UPGRADING ROADS. HENCE THE SCIARRA AND EVERYTHING. WHERE THERE'S MONEY GOING INTO A COMMUNITY AUTHORITY GOES TO HELP PAY FOR INCREASED ROUTES, INCREASED INFRASTRUCTURE, SO ON AND SO FORTH. SO THAT'S WHY I ALWAYS SAY THAT WHEN PEOPLE HEAR THE WORD TAX ABATEMENT, YOU'VE GOT TO REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT'S BEING EVADED AND WHY IT'S BEING ABATED. AND IS THERE A PLAN FOR THE ABATEMENT HOW IT AFFECTS THE CITY? SO IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR HOW THIS IS GOING TO AFFECT THE SCHOOLS, IT'S GOING TO, YOU KNOW , LIKE WE'LL SIT DOWN WITH YOU AND TALK TO YOU ABOUT IT, BUT IT AFFECTS THE AFFECTS THIS. IN FACT, THE SCHOOLS IT COULD.

MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS . BUT AS IT IS RIGHT NOW THAT PROPERTY COLLECTS VERY LITTLE MONEY FOR THE SCHOOLS AND EVERYTHING. SO OUR FOCUS HERE AGAIN YOU MENTIONED I JUST WANT TO HIT ON THE OTHER THING YOU MENTIONED IS RESIDENTIAL. NONE OF THIS LAND RIGHT NOW IS BEING LOOKED AT IT FOR RESIDENTIAL. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS CREATE A JOB SECTOR FOR MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY AND THOSE TYPE OF SORT USES TO CREATE MORE MONEY FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED AT THEREFORE CREATING MORE INCOME TAX NOT ONLY FOR THE CITY TO SUPPLY. MORE PARKS, MORE GREEN SPACE, MORE ROADS AND ALL THAT STUFF. BUT WE'RE NOT. WE'RE NOT FOCUSING HERE ON ON RESIDENTIAL. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RESIDENTIAL. AT THIS POINT. THIS IS MORE OR LESS FOCUSED ON THAT, BUT BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT UP THESE IDEAS TELLS ME THAT WE'VE GOT A. SLOW DOWN A LITTLE BIT AND EDUCATE PEOPLE ON WHAT EXACTLY IT IS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO OR WHAT THIS PROPOSAL IS. THE REASON WHY THE MAYOR, I WAS THE ONE AND I THINK OTHER PEOPLE ON COUNCIL OR, YOU KNOW, YOU GOT TO CREATE A VISION AND YOU'VE GOT TO LEAD. UM WE'RE NOT. WE'RE NOT FIGHTING WITH SWICKLE. HOWEVER PSUEDO IS ITS OWN ENTITY AND THEY CAN EXPAND THEY CAN BUY MORE LAND THAT CAN COME NORTH OF. ORDERS WROTE. IF THEY WANT TO, THEY CAN DO ANYTHING THEY WANT AS LONG AS IT'S NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS, SO THERE'S THAT WHOLE THING. THERE'S THAT WHOLE, UM RATIONALE. SO I AM GLAD THE CITY CAME ALONG AND SAID, OKAY, THIS IS A VISION. IT'S PART OF THE VISION. NOW. CAN THIS VISION BE CHANGED? ABSOLUTELY THAT'S WHY CHUCK MENTIONED BRINGING THINGS IN AS AGRICULTURAL SO IT COULD CONTINUE TO BE FARMED. AND EVERYTHING, BUT AT THE SAME POINT IN TIME, IF THERE ISN'T OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY IF THERE IS A LARGE MEDICAL RESEARCH FACILITY THAT'S LOOKING FOR LAND OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, THAT WILL CREATE JOBS FOR GROVE CITY, HIGH PAYING JOBS, NOT WAREHOUSE JOBS OF A HIGH PAYING JOBS. THEN WE CAN REZONE IT AND HAVEN'T HAVE A PLAN THAT MOVES FORWARD. SO. I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT THEY CAME UP WITH THE VISION BECAUSE VISIONS LEAVE. YOU KNOW I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH WACO. I DO. NO I DON'T WANT TO GO BACKWARDS. BUT I DO KNOW THAT THERE WAS AT LEAST TWO DEALS THAT WENT SOUTH WAS WACO. THAT THE CITY BOUGHT INTO THEIR PLANS AND EVERYTHING LIKE THAT, AND WE ENDED UP AS THE MAYOR SAID, SPENDING MONEY AND EVERYTHING AND WE'VE GOTTEN ZERO OUT OF IT FOR OUR SCHOOLS, AND I KNOW THAT'S UPSET THE MIRROR AND IT'S UPSET. A LOT OF US THAT HAVE BEEN ON COUNCIL FOR A WHILE. SO WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO DO IS THEY'RE TRYING TO SET A VISION FOR WHAT THE AREA COULD BE. AND IN ORDER TO DO THAT WE NEED WE NEED TO DO. WE NEED TO DO SOME WAY OF FUNDING IT, WHICH IS THE SIERRA. AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE OTHER NEXT PIECE OF LEGISLATION IS THE ANNEXATION. OF THOSE OF THOSE ITEMS AND BRINGING IT IN HIS AGRICULTURAL, BUT. IF THERE'S A THERE'S AN ISSUE OF EDUCATION THAT I SAY WE DELAY IT, MEETING AND EDUCATE PEOPLE, SO I DON'T WANT TO RUSH INTO SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND. MR BARRY. I'M GOING TO ADD TWO YEARS ON THERE. TO MY KNOWLEDGE. THOSE AREAS THAT ARE INDICATED HAVE NO SINCE WE'RE TARGETING FOR JOB GROWTH. THOSE AREAS WILL NOT HAVE STUDENTS SO THEY WILL NOT INCREASE THEY WILL NOT ADD TO THE POPULATION RESIDENTIAL SCHOOLS ON THERE SO. MOVING ON VINCENT NATHAN, IS IT. NAPIER. I'M SORRY. OKAY. SORRY. ON 71 YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. GOOD WORK FOR US. OKAY? ANYBODY ELSE LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT HERE? MR CHAIRMAN IN LIGHT OF THE QUESTIONS, AND THEY'RE VERY GOOD QUESTIONS. I

[01:40:09]

APPLAUD YOU FOR BRINGING THEM UP AND WHEN YOU WHEN WE SIT UP HERE, AND WE LISTENED TO QUESTIONS AND PUBLIC OPINION EITHER TELLS US THAT PEOPLE REALLY KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENED REALLY KNOW THAT THE DETAILS OR IF WE HAVE TO EDUCATE AND THAT TYPE OF THING SO. YOU KNOW I WOULD MOVE THAT WE'VE DELAYED THIS UNTIL THAT FIRST MEETING IN JANUARY, UM AND TRY TO GET PEOPLE'S QUESTIONS ANSWERED. GET THIS STUFF UP ON THE NET. SO PEOPLE UNDERSTAND, AND I'M HAPPY TO RESPOND ON. ON FACEBOOK OR ANYTHING OR MEET WITH PEOPLE THEY WOULD LIKE TO, BUT YOU BRING UP VERY GOOD CONCERNS, AND MY CONCERN IS NOW IS THAT WOULD BE IN THE PUBLIC IS NOT DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT YOU GUYS LEAVING THE ROOM THINKING WE'RE PUTTING MORE RESIDENTIAL IN THIS AREA BECAUSE THAT'S NOT. THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. THIS IS ABOUT MEDICAL JOBS AND THAT TYPE OF THING, SO I WOULDN'T MOVE TO DELAY THE VOTE ON THIS UNTIL THE FIRST MEETING IN JANUARY. THEIR SECOND TO THE MOTION TO POSTPONED TO JANUARY 3RD SECOND? YES MR SHOT KEY. NO, MR SLAVE. OH, YES. IS THIS HELP? YES. WE ARE POSTPONED ON THIS ONE. FELL JANUARY 3RD. MOVING ON. TWO. ORDINANCE SEE 71 21 IN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY

[Ordinance C-71-21 Authorize the City Administrator to Execute Pre-Annexation Agreements with Various Property Owners in the vicinity of 1-71 and S.R. 665. Second reading and public hearing.]

ADMINISTRATOR. TO EXECUTE A PRE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT WITH VARIOUS PROPERTY OWNERS IN THE VICINITY OF INTERSTATE 71 STATE. RIGHT 6 65 INTERCHANGE. DO WE NEED SOME GUIDANCE ON THIS ONE FROM THE ADMINISTRATION? I WOULD SUGGEST THAT WE POSTPONE, OF COURSE, BUT I WOULD SUGGEST YOU GO AHEAD AND ACT ON THAT BECAUSE WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE WAITING TO GET IN NEXT AND. I MEAN AGAIN. I DON'T WANT TO POINT OUE THAT PROPERTY THAT'S JUST NORTH. OF THE SNYDER PROPERTY. WE HAVE ANOTHER 15 ACRES FOR SALE ON HAN ROAD THAT IS NOT IN THE CITY GROUP CITY. MHM AND THIS HAS TO WAIT. HOW MANY? WHAT'S THE WAITING PERIOD? THE TIMING ON AN INITIATION. ANNEXATIONS TAKE A MINIMUM OF. FOUR MONTHS TO GET AND THAT'S ON A FAST PACE USUALLY TAKES ABOUT SIX. SEVEN MONTHS BECAUSE OF ALL THE WAITING. BETWEEN HERE THE COUNTY. AND THE CITY REQUIREMENTS. BY THAT ONE. THAT'S THE ONLY POINT I MAKE. MR BARRY HAVE SOMETHING I WANT TO GO TO EXHIBIT C BECAUSE. I THE OTHER EXHIBITS COME IN AS AGRICULTURAL, SO I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEM COMING IN AS AGRICULTURAL THIS ONE ON EXHIBIT C. IT COMES IN AS INDUSTRIAL ZONING. MR BOZO YOU WANT TO SPEAK TO THAT? IS THAT THE W M ONE? CORPORATE YEAH. AGAIN I LOVE THE PROPERTY. WE WANT TO FIGHT PROPERTY OWNERS THAT ARE CONTAINED WITHIN THIS LEGISLATION. IT'S A TOTAL OF 270 ACRES AND AGAIN. SOME OF THESE ARE THE SITE IN YOUR PIECE IS CONTINGENT. IN PROPERTY THAT WAS IN THE ORDINANCE. SEE 70 SO WITH THAT BEING POSTPONED. THE CENTERPIECE MAY NOT COME IN. BUT AS THE MAYOR SAID THE PEACE HE'S TALKING ABOUT IS AN EXISTING.

PIECE OF PROPERTY OUT OF THE 270 ACRES 17.9 ACRES. THAT IS OWNED. INDUSTRIAL IN THE TOWNSHIP. AS THE MAYOR WAS SAYING IT WOULD COME IN IF IT DEVELOPED THERE WOULD BE SEPTIC AND. PROBABLY SOME THINGS THAT WOULD BE DETRIMENTAL TO THE ABILITY TO HAVE QUALITY DEVELOPED. SO MR CHAIRMAN, SO IT. ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THIS CANNOT COME IN AS RESIDENT AS AGRICULTURAL? THE AGREEMENT WITH WITH WITH THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY OWNER WAS THAT THEY WANTED TO, THEY WOULDN'T AGREE TO COME IN AS AGRICULTURE. AND WE HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT THEY WANT THEIR. IT'S GOOD LIGHT INDUSTRY COLUMN YOU WANT TO BUILDER IN TERMS OF THE TOWNSHIP DID SEND US A PLAN ON THAT. THE DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR CAN EXPLAIN. ON THAT PARTICULAR PROPERTY. I HAD NUMEROUS CONVERSATIONS WITH THAT PROPERTY OWNER. AS CHUCK SAID THERE WAS A PREVIOUS PLAYING SUBMITTED TO THE TOWN'S CONSIDERATION INVOLVED. A SERIES OF ONE STORY ONCE WERE. ABOUT 10,000 SQUARE

[01:45:04]

FOOT COMPLEX AND TWO BUILDINGS. SERVERS BY WELL AND SEPTIC. SO, REALLY, WE'RE LOOKING AT THE KIND OF. A BARE BONES INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT THAT ESSENTIALLY IS A SERIES OF GARAGE DOORS ALLOWS FOR FLEX TYPES OF USES. THERE'D BE DIVISIBLE IN TERMS OF 20 OR 30, FT STALLS. SO THAT WHAT? THAT'S WHAT WAS INITIALLY PROPOSED UNDER THE TOWNSHIP. SEVERAL YEARS AGO, AS WE WENT FORWARD WITH OUR PLAN HERE, WE ENGAGE WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER. HE WAS HE WAS WILLING TO LISTEN TO WHAT WE HAD TO SAY. AND REALLY, WE HAD A GOOD CONVERSATION. BUT IN TERMS OF THE ZONING HE WANTED TO RETAIN AN INDUSTRIAL ZONING BECAUSE OFE TOWNSHIP SO NORMALLY WHEN WE ZONE PROPERTY AND FROM THE TOWNSHIP TO THE CITY IS THE MOST COMPARATIVE ZONING CLASSIFICATION. SO WITHOUT ANYTHING IN THIS PROPERTY CAME TO THE CITIES THAT THEY WANT TO BE ANNEXED. BY THE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE GIVEN THE ONE ZONING CLASSIFICATION. SO KNOWING THAT WHEN I WAS TALKING TO THE PROPERTY OWNER I FELT THAT WHILG ANGST. AND AS I RECALL, TORAL.

THIS PROBABLY WANT TO BE INDUSTRIAL HAD BEEN ANY OTHER. DEVELOPMENT IT WOULD BEEN COMPARATIVELY ZONE SO I FELT THERE WAS NO HARM. ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE SITE. BEING LIMITED TO 17.9 ACRES. GOODNESS SHOCKING. GO AHEAD. YOU'RE SAYING DESIGN THE SAME, BUT OUR REQUIREMENTS VERSUS THE TOWNSHIP 180 DEGREES. AND I'LL GIVE YOU AN INVERSE OF THAT, AND THAT'S A CORNER AGAIN.

6 55 AND 62. THAT PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED INDUSTRIAL IN PLEASANT TOWNSHIP. NOW, THINK ABOUT THAT. WE BRING THEM IN OR COMING IN AS AGRICULTURAL SO. THIS ONE IS YES, IT'S BEEN IDENTIFIED ONLY BECAUSE IT WAS A PRE EXISTING ZONING IN THE TOWNSHIP. BUT IT IS GOING TO BE I DON'T MUCH HIGHER. PROFESSIONAL. DEVELOPMENT STAND AND WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IN THE TOWNSHIP. NOTHING IS TOWNSHIP, BUT THAT'S A RULE. THAT'S WHAT WE WAS TALKING TO SPEAK IN TERMS OF USE, NOT NECESSARILY DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, EQUALITY, SO IT'S ON A STRICTLY TALKING ABOUT THE USE OF THE PROPERTY. ONE QUESTION. YES SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS OUR INDUSTRIAL SPECS ARE AT A HIGHER LEVEL THAN THE TOWNSHIPS INDUSTRIAL SPECS FOR REQUIREMENTS. BUILDING HEIGHTS. ARCHITECTURAL. YES, WE WERE. WE HAVE GREATER. DETAILED AUTHORITY FOR RULE. IT STAYS INDUSTRIAL BUT INCREMENTALLY. IT'S A BETTER INDUSTRIAL. FOR WOULD SAY STREET OR THE AREA THAT STRUCTURE IN THE VIDEO. AND MR ROUSE. THAT'S RIGHT NEXT TO THE STORAGE BUILDING STORAGE. BUSINESS, ISN'T IT? NOT? IT'S A LITTLE NORTH OF THEIR NORTH AND EAST JUST NORTH OF OKAY, IT'S ON THE EAST SIDE OF ON ROUTE, OK? PUTS ON THE EAST SIDE OF OKAY. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTION, MR BARRY. STRACHE TECHNICALLY, IF WE DON'T BRING THIS IN, THEY COULD JUST BASICALLY PUT UP FULL BARNES THERE AND CALL IT INDUSTRY.

BUREAU APPROPRIATIONS OF 450,000. HAVE THE REDUCED TO 350,000 AND THE OTHER THEIR 100,000. REMAINDER GO INTO THE. INTO BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE A DEATH. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. THANK YOU. I WAS TRYING TO GET THE RIGHT TERMINOLOGY. TELL ME WHATN TO THE WAY WE ARE REQUIRED TO DISTRIBUTE THE HOTEL TAXES 25% OF THE HOTEL TAXES WE RECEIVED WILL BE DEPOSITED INTO THE CONVENTION BUREAU THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. SO $450,000 WILL BE APPROPRIATED FROM THE CONVENTION BUREAU. I THINK YOU'RE TRYING TO SAY HOW HOW DO YOU WANT THAT SPENT? TO REDUCE WELL, IT'S OKAY IF YOU. OUR PROJECTION IS THAT WE WILL RECEIVE $450,000 TO BE PUT INTO THE CONVENTION BUREAU FUND. SO IF YOU REDUCE THE APPROPRIATION, AND YOU CAN DO THAT. WE WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO PAY $350,000 OUT TO THE V. C B THE WAY IT'S CURRENTLY WRITTEN. ONCE WE GET THE FIRST DOLLAR AFTER THAT, I'LL HAVE TO HOLD IT AND I'LL BE COMING TO YOU FOR A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE. BUT MR SMITH.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FUND BECAUSE THAT WAS IN THE GENERAL NO, NO, IT WOULD JUST WON'T BE APPROPRIATED WILL BE IN MY LA LAND, BUT IT CAN ONLY BE SPENT FOR THE. CONVENTION AND VISITORS BUREAU OR ANOTHER CONVENTION AND VISITORS BUREAU AND IDENTIFIED BY COUNCIL BECAUSE WE CAN.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FUND AS A SEPARATE FUNDING UNDER THIS.

[02:05:16]

LIFE, MR STAGE IF I COULD FROM FROM THE COUNTY STANDPOINT, MIKE IS NOT QUESTIONING EXPERT BUT.

TOOK THE WAY YOU CAN DO THAT IS YOU REINSTATE $100,000, WHERE THEY CHAMBER. AND THEN THAT REVERSES $100,000, WHICH WOULD HAVE COME OUT OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. SHE LOVED ME.

THAT'S THE LAST PLACE. WE TOOK IT OUT. WE TOOK WHAT YOU CAN DO IS YOU FLIP IT TO WHERE THE $100,000 HAS REINSTATED HERE. $100,000 IN THE. UM, APPROPRIATE, MR SMITH. TURNER IS UP AND RUNNING. I THINK WHAT THE MAYOR SAYING IS THAT YOU COULD YOU COULD REINSTATE THE $100,000 THAT YOU WANT TO GO TO THE TO SOMEBODY ELSE. FROM THE CONVENTION BUREAU FUNDS, SO IT'LL BE A MATTER OF REALLOCATING THE CONVENTION BUREAU FUNDS. AND YOU WOULD BACK OUT 100,000. IT'S IN THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT TOLD ME T? ALRIGHT, LET'S SEE IF I CAN GET THIS AMENDMENT ALRIGHT? I'D LIKE TO REDUCE THE APPROPRIATION FOR THE CONVENTION BUREAU FROM 800,000. AND AS THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE 100,000 TO THE GROSS CITY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. AND. I GUESS. REDUCE THE APPROPRIATION IN THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BY 100,000. IT MAKES UP. THANK YOU FOR YOUR GUIDANCE. IS THERE A SECOND TO THIS MOTION? CAN WE HAVE DISCUSSION? MR. ACTUALLY. SO YOU'RE LOGIC. SIR. WELL. FROM OUR FROM OUR LAST BUDGET MEETING. AT LEAST WE'RE PERHAPS LINE OVER THE AMOUNT OF MONEY. AND LOOKING AT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT WAS CARRIED OVER BY THE CONVENTION BUREAU INTO THIS BUDGET HERE. AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY. UM SOME OF THAT, AND I HAVE IT IN MY BRIEFCASE. IT WAS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 333,000.

IN 400 SOME 1000 EXCESS MONEY. PART OF WHAT THEY WERE WORRIED ABOUT WAS PAYING BACK ONE OF THR 80,000. WELL, UM. THOSE LOANS ARE FORGIVABLE WHEN THEY THEY'VE USED AND THEY HAVE THAT MONEY.
