Council approves specific-use permit to allow phase 2 of Lady Luck RV Resort; on-site sewage permitted until city connection available
Summary
Council approved Ordinance 2025-O6 allowing the second phase of Lady Luck RV Resort to install an on-site sewage system while the city completes collection-system extensions.
The Groves City Council approved Ordinance 2025-O6 granting a specific-use permit (SUP) to EDHJ and Philodendron Enterprises LLC for the second phase of the Lady Luck RV Resort at 6579 Gulfway Drive. The SUP allows the developer to install an on-site sewage system while the city completes sewer collection infrastructure needed for a future connection.
City staff described the ordinance as a follow-up to prior council authorization and presented a site map showing the phase-2 area. The ordinance was framed as enabling the developer to pull permits and begin construction on utilities and infrastructure associated with phase 2 while the city works on extending the sewer collection system to serve the resort.
Council members asked clarifying questions about the sequencing; staff confirmed the SUP does not circumvent required permits and that the on-site system would enable work to begin before a city sewer connection is available. The ordinance passed on a recorded voice vote with the mayor and council members voting in favor.
The ordinance allows the developer to start construction activity consistent with permitting; staff did not provide a construction schedule or a firm date for the city sewer connection during the discussion.
