Summary

Circleville City Council on May 20 delayed final action on the River Ridge Section 2 plat, asking staff to review and accept performance bonds before the ordinance returns for a second reading on June 3.

Circleville City Council voted on Tuesday to hold the ordinance accepting the plat for River Ridge Section 2 until a second reading after staff confirmed draft performance bonds have been received and will be reviewed.

At the meeting, a council member described the River Ridge filing as the final plat for a development of 116 homes and noted that the northern section includes a park to be dedicated to the city. The city planner told council staff had received drafts of the required performance bonds for that section but had not yet approved or accepted them and asked that the plat ordinance be conditioned on review and receipt of those bonds.

The presenting council member proposed holding the ordinance for a second reading so the city could complete its review; the council agreed and held the item for second reading at the June 3 meeting. The motion to hold the ordinance was seconded by Council member Sherry Theiss and carried on roll call.

Meeting minutes state the performance bonds were received after hours the day of the meeting and that formal acceptance and approval of the bonds would follow; the council specifically chose to delay final action to avoid approving the plat before bonds were accepted.

The record does not include the dollar amounts for the performance bonds or the detailed bond language; that information is to be reviewed by staff and presented to council before final passage at second reading.
