Plain City holds first readings on CRA boundary change, aggregation ballot questions and a budget amendment
Summary
Councilors introduced first readings of a CRA boundary amendment, opt-out electric and natural gas aggregation ballot measures, and a supplemental budget appropriation on July 14.
Plain City Council on July 14 took up multiple ordinance first readings and preliminary actions.
Ordinance 22-25 (first reading) proposes to amend Ordinance 14-2007 by changing the boundaries of the Plain City Community Reinvestment Area No. 2 (the US 42 Business Park). Council discussed whether to strike the emergency declaration language or still read it aloud; no final determination was recorded in the transcript.
Ordinance 23-25 is the first reading of an ordinance authorizing actions to affect an opt-out electric aggregation program pursuant to the Ohio Revised Code and directing the county board of elections to submit a ballot question to electors. The draft text as read includes language declaring an emergency.
Ordinance 24-25 is the first reading of an ordinance authorizing actions to affect an opt-out natural gas aggregation program pursuant to the Ohio Revised Code and directing the board of elections to submit a ballot question to electors; the text as read also declares an emergency.
Ordinance 25-25 would approve a supplemental appropriation of funds and amendments to the Village of Plain City 2025 budget. During the meeting a motion was made to waive the second reading for Ordinance 25-25; the transcript records the motion to waive but does not include the outcome of that motion in the recorded excerpt.
All three aggregation ordinances as read reference Ohio Revised Code sections cited in the meeting (electric aggregation: Ohio Rev. Code section 4928.20; natural gas: Ohio Rev. Code section 4929.26, as read aloud in the transcript). These items were at first reading; no final adoption of the aggregation ordinances was recorded at the July 14 meeting.
