Plain City sets August public hearings, approves annexation ordinance and several zoning updates
Summary
The council set multiple public hearings for zoning-code amendments in August, approved second readings of ordinances amending planning and zoning chapters, and passed a 70.5-acre annexation ordinance.
Plain City Council members moved and approved a series of planning and zoning actions that set public hearings for August and advanced several ordinances and resolutions through second reading.
The council voted to set public hearings in August for amendments to codified ordinances addressing multiple zoning districts (z c-25-8, z c-25-9, z c-25-10, z c-25-11, z c-25-12). Each motion passed on voice votes recorded as five affirmative votes and zero nays.
The council advanced and approved several ordinances and resolutions on second reading, including:
• Ordinance 18-25, accepting the annexation petition of 70.5 acres from Darby Township, Madison County, into the Village of Plain City — passed 5 yays, 0 nays.
• Ordinance 19-25, amending codified ordinances chapter 11-35.04 (fees) — approved on second reading.
• Ordinance 20-25, amending chapter 11-85.02 (corridor development overlay district) — approved on second reading.
• Ordinance 21-25, amending chapter 11-36 (amendments) — approved on second reading.
• Resolution 34-25, approving and implementing the planning and zoning fee schedule — passed on second reading.
• Resolution 35-25, authorizing Plain City’s participation in the Ohio Department of Transportation U.S. 42 West Avenue intersection improvement project — passed on second reading.
Councilmembers recording votes included Mister Harrison, Mister Johnson, Mister Dennis, Mister Simmons and Mister Ferguson; votes on the motions and second readings were recorded as unanimous among those present. Where motions were offered, the record shows the motion, a second and subsequent roll-call voice confirmation of “yes” from each councilmember.
Why it matters: the zoning-code amendments will proceed to public hearings, where residents will have opportunities to comment. The annexation ordinance adds 70.5 acres to the village and was formally accepted by council vote.
Ending: The council scheduled the public hearings and will consider final readings after the public-comment and planning reviews are completed.
