Council adopts statement of services for 1-acre proposed annexation, waives readings
The Commercial Point Village Council approved Resolution 27-2025, a resolution that adopts a statement of services for a proposed annexation of approximately 1 acre from Scioto Township and that declared an emergency to waive further readings.

A council member asked whether the emergency declaration was required, citing an Ohio Supreme Court case. Another council member explained that the emergency declaration was necessary to meet the resolution’s timing requirements and to waive the second and third readings; without the emergency declaration the resolution would not meet the council’s timeframe for action. The council proceeded to suspend the usual reading requirements and approved the resolution on roll call.

Council discussion included a clarification that approving the statement of services is a ministerial step describing the services the village can provide as of today; one speaker noted that even if the village did not annex the parcel, development could proceed under Scioto Township jurisdiction though by a different route, and that taxes and other implications could differ depending on jurisdiction.

The resolution was introduced as "Resolution 27-2025" and described in the meeting as applying to "1 plus or minus acres" proposed for annexation from Scioto Township to the village. The council voted to waive the readings and approve the resolution; the motion carried on a roll-call vote with the council voting in favor.

The council did not record further conditions or amendments to the resolution during the meeting. The transcript records the legal reference generically as an Ohio Supreme Court case; the meeting did not cite a specific case name or citation during remarks included in the record.
