Summary

Commissioners approved a letter of interest to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections seeking sale of a state-owned parcel in Ross County (Pleasant Valley Road) for possible future housing development; the letter was signed by Speaker 1 for commission consideration.

Speaker 1 presented a letter from the county planning and development department requesting that the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections consider selling a state-owned parcel in Ross County for future housing development along Pleasant Valley Road between Pleasant Valley and U.S. 35. The board recorded the letter of interest and Speaker 1 said they would sign it on behalf of the commission.

Speaker 1 said the parcel is state-owned land with a CCI (correctional) designation and that the planning office had supplied a map for the site; the request was described as an expression of interest to begin state-level discussions about potential housing development. Commissioners did not take further action beyond signing the letter during the public meeting and asked planning staff to continue working on required background and follow-up steps.
