The board awarded the guardrail replacement contract for Lackey Old State Road to Lake Erie Construction Company. The project covers about 8,000 feet of guardrail; county staff reported three bids and said the Lake Erie bid was the lowest and best and came in about 20% below the county’s estimate. The project received a 50% federal grant; county staff said the work will begin this summer and be completed by early fall. The board approved the award as Resolution 25-405 by unanimous vote.

The board approved an owner’s agreement for roadway and drainage improvements tied to the Courtyards of Concord, a 54‑unit development located off Concord Road south of Harriet Road in Concord Township (Resolution 25-406). Commissioners also approved plats for Clarkshaw Crossing Section 2 (47 lots on 28.47 acres, Liberty Township) and Evans Farm Section 6 Phase B (49 lots on 11.17 acres, Orange Township) as Resolution 25-407. County staff said both plats had required agency reviews.

The board approved a summary sheet of 33 standard utility right‑of‑way permits (Resolution 25-408) and declared certain county personal property obsolete, unfit or not needed for public use and directed those items to be sold via GovDeals (Resolution 25-409).

Commissioners established the maintenance bond for Hyatts Meadows Section 3B, a 67‑lot development north of Hyatts Road near U.S. 23 in Liberty Township (Resolution 25-410). The board also approved the use of a procurement card for the human resources department assigned to a new HR assistant, Sydney Ryder; the resolution sets purchasing limits identified in the resolution (Resolution 25-411). Dawn Houston, deputy administrator, said the procurement card would be for Sydney Ryder to purchase materials and supplies for human resources.

All listed resolutions were approved by recorded voice votes; the transcript records all votes as Aye from the three commissioners present.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Delaware County Commissioners' Meeting June 2, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","At its May 29 meeting, the Board awarded a guardrail replacement contract to Lake Erie Construction, certified several subdivision plats and agreements, approved right‑of‑way permits, declared surplus county property for public sale, and authorized a procurement card for a new HR assistant.","taxTitle","taxId",18079,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":56,"_68":69,"_70":56,"_71":72,"_73":72},6190567,"County OKs design contract for single-lane roundabout at Roam Corners Road and Plum Road",34,394000,428000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58&start=394&end=428","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58/thumbnail_394000.jpg","/articles/6190567/Delaware-County/Ohio/County-OKs-design-contract-for-single-lane-roundabout-at-Roam-Corners-Road-and-Plum-Road","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6190567-9d2f2c2d0014fadacc01b056581d2a28/orig.mp4?Expires=1771148190&Signature=Pj9LrN6AcNd6-M4U9u~X6K9EGmKerUL5zbM7X6jTqHGf9Gfv2duO1-Saad9AYpWvNJvFf5h4qTFfS9xwdAp9dvsNjKb5Ixh30OJrGI~W5c4rRGmU-yjQew6HWLXb9FUwUeOwrX9g5VXGcG2AmswW6bsPoaHjW9s~Oxp-M6dEq5Q-8JXbz2XjVkjuIG~tTe9sCi5tB1ri3NjpbLhoc-emRWd~XGdpaOgh~qi5M5Pp8IBP67fLGmYr5v1~CL5wScy6UX4y9G--leq0lOX1TuyFlrKc2lp-MO7OnYNsH~WAdFMwPV~rnZ-xHUYyOWlq9xdIamljtmMXouoLN0nBH2nZrQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Delaware County Board of Commissioners on May 29 approved a professional services agreement with ADR and Associates Ltd. to design intersection improvements at County Road (CR) 039 — Roam Corners Road at Plum Road — including a single‑lane roundabout.

Lee Bodnar of the county engineer’s office described the project and said design services are needed ahead of planned construction. “This resolution is to provide for engineering design services for the construction of a single lane roundabout at the intersection of Roam Corners Road and Plum Road, right at the border of Genoa and Berkshire Township,” Bodnar said. He said construction is tentatively scheduled in the 02/2829 timeframe.

Commissioners voted to approve Resolution 25-404; the vote was recorded as Gary Merrill: Aye; Jeff Benton: Aye; Barb Lewis: Aye.

The resolution authorizes design work only; the transcript does not record a final construction contract award or a firm construction start date beyond the tentative schedule mentioned in the engineer’s presentation.","The board approved a professional services agreement with ADR and Associates Ltd. to design a single-lane roundabout at the Roam Corners Road/Plum Road intersection on the Genoa–Berkshire township border; construction tentatively scheduled for 2028–29.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":56,"_68":69,"_70":56,"_71":72,"_73":72},6190572,"Delaware County approves $35,000 asset-management contract as sewer taps climb",258,100000,358000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58&start=100&end=358","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58/thumbnail_100000.jpg","/articles/6190572/Delaware-County/Ohio/Delaware-County-approves-35000-asset-management-contract-as-sewer-taps-climb","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6190572-c9dc6c4a7864631fb22cbda8d20734fa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771148190&Signature=ApuLGVhg98P9Qga8ZGMrFvCz5sTXK29tPimIVlVn7ZQYmsi2syx5D3WlBDa7SHaaD4WOPzUhV3aA19it3M6JjLKIXZFPZyK~HTbV99KJzt3uCrcRagKEM1L6svbBzWziZKUE7TQkQkafIv9QhSsVQQ9kMZeN4E9gvfFfHHcVTcnD6eQ3C8rl7M4XblOMOKavAFbyZFudxo9jjdhoVBlo44t4gHJOOWFdkryUXqp65ArmuGYrfw49wo3l-gWgRas6or6FpRT7krapm4wc00UcL5IBODLGYGQbhN6bDcidLq0D7uhRadr2Rz85xqJIBVs331ebK8PwTT-aFiQKp-IlkA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Delaware County Board of Commissioners on May 29 approved a $35,000 professional services agreement with Ferguson and NIPO Inc. for annual technical support of the county’s asset management program.

Tiffany Mag, director of environmental services, told the board the contract will provide technical assistance as the county improves its asset database and develops a prioritization framework to schedule maintenance and replacements for critical infrastructure. “This is basically technical assistance as we improve our asset database,” Mag said.

Mag also delivered the monthly sanitary update and listed development activity across the county, naming multiple projects under review or recently approved: Eagle Creek phases 2 and 3 (68 single-family lots by Pulte), Woodland Lake (211 rental units by Wilcox Communities, recently annexed into Sunbury), Honey Grove (54 single-family homes by Pulte), Northport Place (43 units in a seven-building project), Wilson Road sewer main extension (15-inch extension to serve the east side of the outlet mall), Independent Living at Old State (22 condo units), Redwood Powell Home Road phase 1 (an apartment project), Clarkshaw Crossing (47 single-family lots and 28 condo units in phases A and B) and Evans Farm Section 6 Phase B (97 single-family homes in the next phase of development).

Mag gave preliminary connection numbers for May: 86 single-family taps, 0 multifamily taps and 1 commercial connection. She said year-to-date totals are about 700 taps; staff budgeted 1,481 taps for the year, up from prior budgeting in the 800–900 range. Mag reported cumulative totals so far this year of 390 single-family and 305 multifamily taps. “So we’re pretty well in line with our budgeted number of taps right now,” she said.

Commissioners voted to approve Resolution 25-403 (asset-management agreement) by recorded voice vote: Barb Lewis: Aye; Gary Merrill: Aye; Jeff Benton: Aye.

The contract is described as annual support for the county’s asset management program; the resolution does not specify additional contract terms beyond the $35,000 amount. The sanitary update listed project names and tap counts; timing for specific private development buildouts and commercial tenants was not specified in the public record of the hearing.","The Board approved a $35,000 annual support contract for the county’s asset management program and received a sanitary update showing dozens of residential developments and roughly 86 single-family connections in May and about 700 taps year-to-date.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":56,"_68":69,"_70":56,"_71":72,"_73":72},6190578,"Delaware County approves expansion and governance change for Northstar New Community Authority",346,923205,1269520,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58&start=923&end=1269","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5047465-4b3c27c9e12f1015ba1fc32d9aba6e58/thumbnail_923205.jpg","/articles/6190578/Delaware-County/Ohio/Delaware-County-approves-expansion-and-governance-change-for-Northstar-New-Community-Authority","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6190578-90f109db608bde2b5c64135dd9ba7c75/orig.mp4?Expires=1771148190&Signature=LGUbg20jkQQ~7xMjJvS-ZmCDRqErcUMfgrodjMXRkmtD7gJU5w~GafGIYVLWbDDb3A1eXCC0xg-Y2MfwNqQQgIBxAjIVU3YzoAB-A0Tjd5LeCTQ0PrjJN5JOybWCAPPh6YvMeiZZOxmQKW~9EwRibRBz5TqZus08SzLaiw1FTLite73pMhDgG4hRBNyJb2dgBTMcO36lKjxaF1kbIiJt1XkYS4aZ6i51p0xtGn1JrINQZmICxyxTCcINsEV1-blclnY66GdVfLmEZwijGsW1z7nvqTGbPqEE7oaFlm9hs3muUzgPXwXa~~7csj39~Dcrcv2-w-d8kWjPPHQjiZKrjQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Delaware County Board of Commissioners on May 29 approved an application to add certain real property to the Northstar New Community Authority and amend the authority’s petition under Chapter 349 of the Ohio Revised Code.

Greg Daniels, counsel to the Northstar New Community Authority, told the board the amendment does three things: adds newly acquired commercial property to the authority, recognizes a change in the developer entity, and preserves the county-appointment process for successor trustees instead of moving to trustee elections.

Daniels said the amendment will allow charges to be collected from the new development to fund infrastructure already constructed or planned by the authority, including roads and water and sewer improvements. “Charges can be collected from that new development to help fund all the infrastructure,” Daniels said. He also described the developer change as a technical correction reflecting a transfer of interest to a new development entity.

The petition also continues the existing process of having county commissioners select and vet successor trustees for the authority’s board. Daniels said trustee elections have performed poorly in similar community authorities because of low turnout and limited candidate interest, and that many authorities have continued the county-selection approach.

The board held a public hearing on the petition, then voted to approve Resolution 25-412. The vote was recorded as President Barb Lewis: Aye; Commissioner Gary Merrill: Aye; Vice President Jeff Benton: Aye. Commissioners closed the public hearing at about 9:50 a.m. before taking the vote.

Commissioners and staff noted ongoing development activity in the Northstar area during the meeting’s other agenda items. No specific timetable or commitments for future commercial tenants were provided during the hearing; Daniels said only that there is hope for additional retail along the 36/37 corridor and that some pieces of property added could accommodate a range of uses, from retail to larger commercial or multifamily, “up to the market.”

The petition and the board’s approving resolution cite Chapter 349 of the Ohio Revised Code, the statutory authority governing new community authorities in Ohio. The application before the board addressed commercial additions and governance language; the resolution approving the application was read into the record as Resolution 25-412 and approved by unanimous vote.

The board did not specify further implementation steps at the meeting beyond approving the application and amended petition; the transcript does not record new dates for construction or tenant commitments.","The Delaware County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously May 29 to add commercial property to the Northstar New Community Authority, correct a developer transfer, and preserve commissioner selection of successor trustees under an amended petition under Ohio Revised Code Chapter 349.","actionData","errors"]
