Staff advised that environmental reviews are necessary for each project and that review time varies by project complexity. A staff member said projects must be turned in by August and that the sooner the commissioners give authorization, the sooner environmental reviews can begin.

Because a key staff member, Shannon, was absent, commissioners agreed to move the grants follow-up to the June meeting so the absent staff member can participate and to allow time for environmental reviews and project preparation. County staff said they would begin environmental review work once authorization is provided.

No final allocation decisions or contract awards were made at the meeting; staff said the OPWC allocation window had only recently opened and that projects need formal submission and further approvals.","County grants staff told commissioners the OPWC allocation window opened and $872,108 was available for the listed projects; commissioners agreed to postpone action to June to allow environmental reviews and to accommodate absent staff.",{"_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":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6548094,"Commissioners add three resolutions: two emergency communications hires and authorization for sanitary engineer to apply for OPWC funding",70,12880,83685,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3407188-41c3a76cde66f314bd2731baeab71946&start=12&end=83","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3407188-41c3a76cde66f314bd2731baeab71946/thumbnail_12880.jpg","/articles/6548094/Warren-County/Ohio/Commissioners-add-three-resolutions-two-emergency-communications-hires-and-authorization-for-sanitary-engineer-to-apply-for-OPWC-funding","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6548094-cac19089336adccaf07f033bc0e527fe/orig.mp4?Expires=1771136552&Signature=KXV2Hv1dPbBVI4u9BIdbtxAdVCG6C3cTKOBBAJeJaBFvQzckGUaaf1f2XoD2V8rh88eFguxGaXonDmsjWNZZ1Jf94AfQQm9ssbADPAEHG9MR1tY1s3pftzHZdpJSlW83SFI9FT11~WyQS55hcTIRov8GDoG-OQrRhI~n5sMscaPcXgixyViFrJKo8BfGa0Xvu7au2H2d-RNg6unCshlpd8cZAe-3IafVGpT9XfR3iGmaqMZ8wnPmovDgTu~bme3J7YQRJO04dbCHBj-wUJa7kuzSvuuE1AfY614NU9vXVa9JcZVIGHLGEVz4HecgDimRys8oX63uykPD1tPPSE2Hdw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","During the consent/add-on portion of the meeting, the commissioners added and approved three resolutions: two personnel hires and one project‑funding authorization.

The first two resolutions authorize hiring Kimberly Guzman and Mackenzie Smitty as emergency communications operators within Warren County Emergency Services. Both resolutions were presented together and approved by roll call.

The third resolution authorizes the Warren County Sanitary Engineer to prepare and submit final applications and to execute contracts as required to participate in the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) State Capital Improvement Program for the Greenfields roadway improvement and waterline replacement project and the Woodland Trace roadway improvement and waterline replacement project. The transcript states these applications are for program year '41 and program year '42 with related fiscal-year references; the exact fiscal-year notation in the record was not stated clearly. County staff later said the OPWC allocation window was recently announced.

Commissioners recorded a roll-call vote approving the three added resolutions.

Ryan Cook, planner with Warren County Planning, said the corridor plan was initiated by Deerfield Township and covers roughly 500 feet on either side of the Route 22/3 centerline from Fields Ertle Road to the Little Miami River. The plan includes an executive summary, vision and goals, four character areas and a list of short-, medium- and long-term implementation actions aimed at beautification, connectivity and redevelopment.

Sam Hill, planning and zoning director for Deerfield Township, said the township intends to pursue implementation over a 20-year horizon and is looking at tools to \"jump start\" redevelopment along the corridor. Hill also said representatives from the Ohio Department of Transportation participated on the steering committee and that ODOT controls the roadway, which limits what local governments can do without ODOT agreement.

During discussion, a commissioner noted the corridor’s importance to county sales tax revenues because of retail and commercial development in the Fields Ertle/Mason/Montgomery Road area. The board closed the public hearing, moved the resolution and recorded roll-call approval.

The plan’s adoption into the county comprehensive plan is a policy-level action that incorporates Deerfield Township’s area-specific guidance; specific projects (such as roadway widening) would require coordination and approvals with ODOT and separate project-level decisions.

No public testimony was offered during the hearing.","Warren County commissioners voted to amend the county comprehensive plan to incorporate Deerfield Township’s Route 22 and 3 corridor plan, a 20-year vision focusing on corridor character, beautification and redevelopment; ODOT participation noted for roadway matters.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6548104,"Warren County commissioners approve inducement resolution for up to $8 million in hospital facility revenue bonds for Community First Solutions",57,115000,172805,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3407188-41c3a76cde66f314bd2731baeab71946&start=115&end=172","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3407188-41c3a76cde66f314bd2731baeab71946/thumbnail_115000.jpg","/articles/6548104/Warren-County/Ohio/Warren-County-commissioners-approve-inducement-resolution-for-up-to-8-million-in-hospital-facility-revenue-bonds-for-Community-First-Solutions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6548104-75e9febb2204189030152228c4b42496/orig.mp4?Expires=1771136552&Signature=Oet4zgcGIC7AyVabpn07kKapCTa6V8drCqcBqs2pdQlcp8ggaIrFRpTvyKTr50qXocH4vb6HDEO9AeXWhEAQRJAVlifZBWwwdqP4E9mDjODzh0xTVhX7DZVDVnT4~ma5Gv7YV0K8aZHpv6txVsP~uXtan45nJf~PpjloSyad-wBJf7gQvVVWIpwiHrgca8wiADd5H0NPufdwcvYtzHsckKQGk8-K4KCKCna0umM~5strhNbQRF2-Dnoz2yuJQpp0TkzjQPL03Qp4Ag5zH3-pxOzkx4Lu0llvGxnu7k21CrrlbJS8wkwbZ0KlTVEjvketHGpYQkByiXr8dYFuM0HZfw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Warren County Board of Commissioners approved an inducement resolution indicating the county’s intent to issue hospital facilities improvement revenue bonds not to exceed $8,000,000 to finance Community First Solutions’ acquisition of an assisted-living facility on Reading Road in Mason.

Ally Kimbler, bond counsel with Dinsmore & Shohl, told commissioners the transaction would be issued through the county as a conduit issuer. \"As a conduit issuer for these bonds, they are not general obligations or debt of the county, and no bondholders have the right to seek repayment on the bonds from the county or any taxpayer front funds. They are solely repayable by the borrower,\" Kimbler said.

Brian Krause, chief financial officer of Community First Solutions, attended the presentation with bond counsel and the law firm. Kimbler said the facility being acquired is a 41-unit assisted-living facility on about 3.2 acres.

Commissioners recorded their approval on the resolution during the work session. The inducement resolution authorizes staff and counsel to continue the bond process; it does not by itself issue bonds or create county debt. Commissioners and bond counsel said further documentation and later approvals will be required before bonds are sold.

No public speakers opposed or requested additional conditions during the portion of the meeting that covered the inducement resolution.

The county’s role as conduit issuer means bondholders’ recourse is against the borrower, Community First Solutions, rather than against Warren County taxpayers. Commissioners asked no substantive questions before taking the roll call approving the inducement resolution.","Commissioners voted to indicate the county's intent to issue conduit hospital facilities improvement revenue bonds, not county debt, to finance Community First Solutions’ acquisition of a 41-unit assisted living facility in Mason; bond amount capped at $8 million.","actionData","errors"]
