Staff reported they had located a visual specification for a flush‑mount marking device and plan to add permit language making vertical markers disallowed unless required by law. The restriction would apply to fiber and gas lines and other utilities that request permanent field markers, staff said. The staff presenter said the change is not yet in the city’s written documentation but will be enforced when replacement work requires a permit.

Commissioners asked whether the rule would be retroactive; staff replied that existing vertical markers already in place would not be immediately removed but that when replacements or repairs occur the permit review would require nonvertical (flush) markers. A commissioner joked about decorating vertical markers and referenced themed concealment approaches used elsewhere.

No formal policy was adopted at the meeting; staff said the requirement will be applied during permit review going forward and that permit language will be updated.","Planning staff said the city will begin specifying flush‑mount markers in right‑of‑way permits and will not permit new vertical markers unless required by law; policy will apply to fiber and gas and will be enforced at replacement under permits.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6259073,"Planning staff reports Sunbury Parkway planning, internships and development activity",138,492000,630000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3143699-746001ebb227c080f840dea64726ca85&start=492&end=630","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3143699-746001ebb227c080f840dea64726ca85/thumbnail_492000.jpg","/articles/6259073/Ohio/Planning-staff-reports-Sunbury-Parkway-planning-internships-and-development-activity","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6259073-58739c8ef129d5313330ff56256b782f/orig.mp4?Expires=1777570063&Signature=EgU~lKe37bf3YoD21L4qHb2eomlcEDnEtqFuiip2MvbqAHzhhtpgTz6Q2rcz904W9IfhDfTY1rmn-XPnfHavI8NZ~Q-OQnbBqNmOzvP7rN2QdeGXLRYfnsCMbiZQ7tpOHXISk5HYBJHU1slWDB7kVEn0kA4nrYJY~FJHD9hkApKX~CarVpIeQSq7m6C2NZ9wgBwJudekxUggRcDSGG~vq2hH0Vk0qNwId0EBQxVATrTDQHcfrJN5QlUW~kZJL5FaPLeSLmvrkUK-Vc7KzCuu2M-ooFQvdOZBP~894Hl4fST-kCkQxchutcunqUGtDRVD-n~nN6Imjyf9z9A6uCrMDg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City planning staff told the commission the zoning code working group is forming and will include council representation, the city consultant and planning staff. The group will begin monthly or bi-monthly meetings to draft zoning updates, staff said.

Staff said developers have contacted the city about potential projects near the new I-70 interchange at Sunbury Parkway. The planning staff asked commissioners to keep the draft Sunbury Parkway plan in mind when reviewing any developer proposals because formal zoning districts for that area are still under development.

Staff also reported two summer internship offers: one accepted (a student at Ohio State currently abroad), and a second offer pending. For building activity, staff gave monthly counts: 17 zoning certificates, 11 new builds and 39 occupancy permits. Staff said the occupancy-permit total was elevated because a builder, Pulte, submitted multiple permits at once rather than staggered submissions. Year-to-date single-family new builds are 41.

Staff noted Summary Meadows and Millers Cove are fully built out and will be removed from the monthly subdivision list as Eagle Creek Highlands and Woodland Lake come online.

Commissioners asked no substantive follow-ups during the report; staff invited commissioners to raise questions at future zoning-code working-group meetings.","Staff updated the commission on the zoning code working group, outreach to developers about the Sunbury Parkway area, summer internships and permit statistics (17 zoning certificates, 11 new builds, 39 occupancy permits for the month).",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6259078,"Planning commission approves final plat for Price Ponds phases 4 and 5",270,188000,458000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3143699-746001ebb227c080f840dea64726ca85&start=188&end=458","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3143699-746001ebb227c080f840dea64726ca85/thumbnail_188000.jpg","/articles/6259078/Ohio/Planning-commission-approves-final-plat-for-Price-Ponds-phases-4-and-5","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6259078-570dff4b72d1e1b2d1c7ff1832c1bbd1/orig.mp4?Expires=1777570063&Signature=Kfmq2I44Bc4HQtX4mmEf4~DimvBi7RKD7P2PqAmsNLKp7aKPrlPXDOkANosMys8iOpLWztKPuKQJvUaZzrKRnPxkDprYt81w9QT6vErwrcPY75fyFQzIAt9epDFGiTrbAl6v9zmy8ejtOzK9GOptiak9nVHAJwSs7xLpbVOiyE4M0TtdlffGqtcCxyGmiRzE13G1SfxXc3bWhJtGJxHw~xPjPhODdMI8tj9bZJYemgCYr5oY818vBzbIv2GYe99tqrk9zfFG2CTo2cp76Vu5PGnNlV0-WidsttODwhX~NwfVHbh2x0-zqaOmHWg6B1mURWxg-YB42HH21S-5QPEuLQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Sunbury City Planning and Zoning Commission approved the final plat for Price Ponds phases 4 and 5, which together include 102 homes, at its April 28 meeting.

The approval keeps the total number of lots unchanged from the preliminary plan while moving about three lots between sections to provide additional floodplain storage, commission staff said. The modification also relocated an area of open space; staff noted the plan provides 0.156 acres of open green space in the redesigned Section 4.

Curtis Pearl, representing the applicant, told the commission, “We have the final plots for Section 4 and 5 of Price Ponds. So those are gearing up for construction.” Staff added that final engineering reshaped Section 4 to accommodate relocated lots and removed a house from Section 5 to create the required floodplain storage. The changes were reviewed administratively and do not alter the approved total lot count.

A motion to approve the final plat passed on a roll-call vote with Mayor Mary Saint John, Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Crawford and Mr. Long each voting yes.

Commissioners asked only clarifying questions about the revised open-space location and the lot numbering inside the loop; staff said the lot numbering and engineering changes were coordinated during final engineering and administratively reviewed. The applicant indicated construction of the final phases is now being scheduled.

The commission did not vote on any amendments to the plat at the meeting; staff noted remaining engineering items are under administrative review and will be handled through standard permitting.","Sunbury City Planning and Zoning Commission approved the final plat for Price Ponds phases 4 and 5, preserving the previously approved lot count while shifting three lots to accommodate floodplain storage and adding 0.156 acres of open space.","actionData","errors"]
