Council adopts street, school‑access and intergovernmental resolutions; approves minutes and declines liquor‑license hearing
Summary
At its April 22 meeting the Green City Council adopted three resolutions — Graybill Road turn lane, Maslin Road resurfacing amendment, and a Mount Pleasant/Arlington roundabout cost‑share with Jackson Township — and approved earlier minutes and not requesting a hearing on a liquor license application.
Green City Council adopted several routine but budgetary items on April 22, finalizing funding and consents for local infrastructure projects and handling two procedural items.
Council voted 5–0 to adopt Resolution 2025‑R12, appropriating $253,792 from the street construction fund (201 fund) to build a turn lane on Graybill Road to serve the new Green Elementary School. The finance committee had recommended the measure.
Council also adopted Resolution 2025‑R13, consenting and cooperating with the Ohio Director of Transportation for resurfacing of State Route 241 (Maslin Road). The city had budgeted $460,000; the total city portion increased to $619,944 and required an additional appropriation of $185,000 from the street construction fund. Council adopted R13 as amended (voice recorded as adopted as amended).
On a separate measure, council adopted Resolution 2025‑R14, authorizing the city to enter a cost‑sharing agreement with Jackson Township for the Mount Pleasant Street and Arlington Road roundabout project (PID 1182807). The city will share local costs on a 50/50 basis; the project is scheduled for construction around 2028 and has secured safety funding.
Procedural items: the council approved the April 8, 2025 council meeting minutes (TMP4943). Roll‑call on that motion recorded: Mr. Spate — yes; Mr. Neugebauer — yes; Mrs. Babbitt — abstain; Mr. Noble — yes; Mr. Davidis — yes. The motion carried.
On a liquor‑license matter (TMP4948), the public safety committee recommended the city not request a state hearing on Fresh Food Deli Inc.’s application for a new D‑2 (on‑premises) liquor license to allow beer and wine to go with food at 5 E. Kaston Road. Council voted to not request a hearing; recorded votes were Mrs. Babbitt — yes; Mr. Davidis — yes; Mr. Spate — yes; Mr. Neugebauer — yes; Mr. Noble — yes.
Other committee items mentioned at the meeting included a second‑reading pavement‑marking contract (Resolution 2025‑R16) and a speed‑limit request to ODOT (Resolution 2025‑R15); both were discussed in committee but not adopted at tonight’s meeting.
