Mayor and council members named officers and staff recognized by the FBI for the June 2022 Chase Bank ATM investigation and subsequent related arrests. Among those mentioned were dispatchers and detectives; council members described the FBI recognition as honoring staff who later assisted investigations in Michigan and South Carolina.

Council members also described a February 6 medical emergency in the police department. They said rapid action by on-duty and off-duty police and fire personnel and Cleveland Clinic emergency staff stabilized the employee. The Cleveland Clinic officials visited City Hall on March 20 to present challenge coins to the responders. Council said the employee is expected to return on light duty pending full release.

No formal council action was taken on either item; council used the reports to commend staff and inform the public.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Twinsburg Council Meeting - March 25, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Council members reported FBI recognition of multiple Twinsburg officers for a multi-state ATM investigation and described a March medical emergency involving a staff member, praising rapid police, fire and Cleveland Clinic response.","taxTitle","Twinsburg City Council, Twinsburg, Summit County, Ohio","taxId",71251,"location","Ohio","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6107077,"Twinsburg reinvigorates downtown plans; CIC eyes revolving loan/grant and ARB approves Donato’s window renovation",0,1294000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960&start=1294&end=1294","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960/thumbnail_1294000.jpg","/articles/6107077/Ohio/Twinsburg-reinvigorates-downtown-plans-CIC-eyes-revolving-loangrant-and-ARB-approves-Donatos-window-renovation","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6107077-0a23024cdc75f0d1c192c63474354a39/orig.mp4?Expires=1771186251&Signature=gdeMNGQrb82Zm3ihz94PWUYpt5JFEvEohXHQHTTqsrqE1-1x8l-w9qrr4NGApA8mBvQ1oW1YKgduWt5WH1gjTSHJgop7MyfO-VZKWUuaTEWHFvW1hLlU~EsSEnhG0jtr8j2~RHu0ZSDnUtUXJl0HxQDrIytLSqbn9-mvAEqnQhH~OjuMf~XMScmG14GxEbXt3CGkKNadWe7GXrXyUfuVp6-7xVhzFOAXHJtcnUQAfjBgaE4Xa2xqk76VgWvKTSPXH87JWglqjmIKFaj9Dv04fIi4SVjV5oFgbho7cUdEbjiF06QP1p7TNF8RmfAYJdDUhlS5R7UW5rXsjxmZYqTCzg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Members of Twinsburg City Council on March 25 reported several downtown development moves: the Twinsburg Community Improvement Corporation voted to transfer ownership of properties adjacent to the post office (and a property tied to Regis Brown) to the city to consolidate parcels for a future developer request for qualifications. Council members said the city plans a new RFQ to attract development concepts for the downtown.

Council members also said the CIC created a subcommittee to design a revolving loan/grant program aimed at downtown mixed-use properties (C5 zoning). The preliminary framework mentioned grants of up to $100,000 for applicants and said the CIC has available funds for downtown incentives; the program was described as being in early formation with more details to come.

On architectural reviews, the Architectural Review Board reviewed work on the long-vacant Donato’s building. The board allowed replacement-style windows as part of an initial renovation step; a dentist office is planning to occupy and renovate the building, though additional building-department review and roofing/structural work remain before full occupancy.

Council members said the economic development coordinator, Brecken Ziegler, has experience administering similar downtown programs elsewhere and that the city intends to use incentives to attract businesses to the square.","Council members reported the Twinsburg Community Improvement Corporation will consolidate ownership of two downtown parcels to streamline a developer RFQ and is forming a revolving loan/grant program; the Architectural Review Board approved new windows for a long-vacant Donato's building and a dentist plans to renovate the structure.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6107082,"Council approves new recreational marijuana rules and a package of equipment, fees and settlements in unanimous votes",746,2085000,2831000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960&start=2085&end=2831","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960/thumbnail_2085000.jpg","/articles/6107082/Ohio/Council-approves-new-recreational-marijuana-rules-and-a-package-of-equipment-fees-and-settlements-in-unanimous-votes","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6107082-6e8fec3693de9a028932809fd0976a72/orig.mp4?Expires=1771186251&Signature=cBroWnf16mztwah9LkK9wcL4jsoGO3QCJkebcMTlzcLdr660bADDyHav7uvGWujUn-gYIojQHrefWkibNu1DyO2MacYf5ufPdbSbkqNs4Z7SSEwHTN3GmfLgPtSv-h1hAqo8lF3ZlD6EOBXRUYRradsXhmKq~iK8zIVXqY~ulCGiStjp4AF2min2qWJcT8Jw6tnYOxLvBmMWGkGkEUL6~jXfzNUu12W0JbcuxJ0RXXcnEkuWf7EkwmhmNtlt78vPzlBGjY7cbqnvMlDRsXLzCmCBoIIOdJixql-wMAf-~6ilHMD0wp3r2jM-VjtzRWm~wF1BUe2s6r-GkRL6bWgwdw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Twinsburg City Council on March 25 voted unanimously on several emergency ordinances and resolutions and recorded a first reading for a proposed real-estate exchange with the school district.

Key outcomes:

- Ordinance 22 20 25: Council adopted an ordinance enacting a new Chapter 7.73 (regulation of recreational marijuana businesses in the business regulations code) as an emergency. Vote: 5-0.

- Resolution 35 20 25: Council authorized the city to apply for and accept the \"energized community program\" grant administered through \"no Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council\" (as read at the meeting) and declared it an emergency. Suspension of the three-reading rule passed 5-0; final adoption 5-0.

- Resolution 36 20 25: Council authorized the mayor to execute a letter of intent to purchase one ambulance from Pfund Superior Sales (emergency). Suspension and adoption both passed 5-0; administration said the letter secures a future vehicle slot and that the city will return with a formal contract when delivery dates are known.

- Resolution 37 20 25: Council authorized use of the OMNIA Cooperative Purchasing Program to acquire a 2025 Jacobson LF550 fairway mower (emergency). Vote 5-0.

- Resolution 38 20 25: Council established fees and rates for the Glen Eagles Golf Course (emergency). Vote 5-0.

- Resolution 39 20 25: Council authorized a settlement agreement and release with former employee Matthew Pfeiffer and the Ohio Patrolmen Benevolent Association (emergency). Vote 5-0.

- Resolution 40 20 25: The resolution authorizing the mayor to enter into a real estate exchange agreement with the Transburg City School District was read and \"stands on its first reading\" (no final action at this meeting).

- Ordinance 41 20 25: Council authorized destruction of certain city personal property as an emergency; council said disposing units would cost less than making them saleable. Vote 5-0.

Other procedural actions: Council moved an executive session on pending litigation (citing Ohio Revised Code 121.22(G)(3)) to later in the agenda and then voted to enter executive session by a 5-0 roll call.

All recorded roll calls in the record show council votes of five in favor and zero opposed on the adopted emergency measures.","Twinsburg City Council voted 5-0 on multiple emergency ordinances and resolutions March 25, including a new recreational marijuana business chapter, a grant application, an ambulance letter of intent, equipment purchases, a downtown property transfer authorization (first reading) and a settlement agreement.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6107087,"Resident raises flooding and road-safety concerns over proposed school property swap near Chamberlain Trail",203,81000,284000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960&start=81&end=284","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2779033-ae05a654d02d553870c9536d4daab960/thumbnail_81000.jpg","/articles/6107087/Ohio/Resident-raises-flooding-and-road-safety-concerns-over-proposed-school-property-swap-near-Chamberlain-Trail","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6107087-723182f40f06d7ee75840cd18d8eebe1/orig.mp4?Expires=1771186251&Signature=bl1og0ewXcNMbbXwLpp9YCCsEawlMCSPw4EDdCDvYpiscun~bvdVaTRG2vaBd1Ai6dwIG5~EVG07CD5Wgaixch5nWL3bISI2Z3do4pqkxxjxvp57XQY4rcSKDNiSN1x1IBDwhWbyjayPv9KixRAq~L~~TOy3ZMgCaiEZMuY2fMAQ6KMmAysXYROXgA7Sdxif~xxE9oqamjosClJp3yJ7BWVh157KgjeC94HttWOfxFz4PQuR6clutIItrvAzyjGfY8d9iKq-Zb16w38tDfG77Z3rllYz63XNtTtc68N-rbpUMXRMm9etBoriSYKLlUOy-TQZkkYJLaViPSLS8kD7Dg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Don Simon, a Twinsburg resident at 9651 Chamberlain Trail, used the public-comment period at the Twinsburg City Council meeting on March 25 to ask council to slow a proposed property swap tied to a school project and to demand studies of environmental, traffic and utility impacts.

\"Nobody can give us an answer. They've done no planning yet. There's no environmental studies,\" Simon said, describing repeated questions from neighbors that he said went unanswered at recent school-hosted meetings. He warned that an intended construction driveway near a low spot on Chamberlain Road would concentrate stormwater runoff and increase neighborhood noise.

Simon said the parcel under discussion sits immediately behind Chamberlain Trail and carries multiple small street creeks that drain through the parcel toward a church adjacent to the proposed driveway. \"You put a building right in the center of this, the street pieces of creek dumped into this property. What's gonna happen?\" he asked.

In his remarks, Simon listed local infrastructure shortfalls: he said Chamberlain Trail is narrow (\"16 to 17 foot in width\"), lacks water service, fire hydrants and curb utilities, and that sewer lines run through the property but not along the street. He also said the driveway the school proposes was described to neighborhood residents as gated for safety but could be opened if traffic demands increase.

Members of council and staff did not make a policy decision during the meeting. Council members and the mayor later discussed that the parcel under discussion is part of a school project, and that many of the technical questions Simon raised — traffic studies, platting of drives, building permits, architecture-review board approvals and building-department permits — would be resolved through the schools' planning and permit process if funding and design move forward.

Simon asked council to request the school slow the timeline so residents can see environmental and traffic analyses before a levy vote. Council members responded that the city has not yet voted on any exchange or contract with the school district and that details should be obtained from the school district.

No motion or vote related to the property swap was taken at the March 25 meeting.","A Twinsburg resident urged council to pause a proposed property exchange tied to a school project, citing drainage, narrow roads and missing environmental and traffic studies affecting Chamberlain Trail and nearby Stone Creek homes.","actionData","errors"]
