Council approves opioid‑settlement participation, denies Miller Road rezoning and approves police training appropriation
Summary
At the Sept. 2 meeting the council adopted an emergency resolution joining the national opioid settlement participation, voted to deny a rezoning and preliminary plan for a Miller Road subdivision (second reading), and approved a supplemental appropriation for police training.
Middletown City Council took several legislative votes during its Sept. 2 meeting. Council adopted Resolution R2025‑28, authorizing the city to participate in the national opioid settlement that includes eight additional defendants; emergency language was included so the city could meet an October opt‑in deadline. The roll call showed unanimous support. On a separate matter, Council adopted Ordinance O2025‑50 on second reading denying a request to rezone about 86.086 acres on Miller Road from R‑1 (suburban residential) to PD (planned development) and not approving a preliminary plan for approximately 217 single‑family homes. Council member Horn, referencing the need for “common sense density,” said he supported denying the rezoning. Council also approved Resolution R2025‑29 to add $24,274.40 to the police grant fund for mandatory specialized patrol training. The vote on that supplemental appropriation was unanimous.
