Summary

At its Jan. 13 meeting the Sharonville City Council approved multiple emergency ordinances, including an emergency authorization for a salt contract and an Amber Road repaving order; council also introduced new business regulations for hookah lounges and discussed a state REDD grant application.

Sharonville City Council approved several emergency ordinances during its Jan. 13 meeting, moving quickly through first-and-only readings and roll-call votes on procurement and public-works items.

Councilmembers voted to approve emergency ordinance 2026-02E, authorizing contract actions tied to the city’s salt inventory and emergency winter-season supply. A motion to consider a package of emergency ordinances was made and seconded; the clerk then called the roll and the ordinance was recorded as approved by the council.

Council also completed the first-and-only reading of emergency ordinance 2026-03E (an amendment referenced in the 2020 code) and recorded approval in the meeting record. Separately, council introduced emergency ordinance 2026-04E, a new business regulation (chapter 7.32) addressing hookah lounges in the city; that item was presented as a first reading and enacted language was read into the record for council consideration.

On infrastructure, council authorized emergency ordinance 2026-05E to repave Amber Road. After motion and roll call the emergency repaving order was approved and the clerk confirmed the emergency order had passed.

Clerk/Counsel also briefed council on a pending application to the Residential Economic Development (REDD) program and other appropriations, and described a longstanding Cornell Road/court matter and arbitration concerning the convention center expansion. The meeting record includes a motion on Resolution 2026-R-01 (related to a REDD program application); the transcript records the motion being made but does not capture a clear vote result in the available segments.

Council handled the ordinance package under emergency provisions and completed the recorded roll-call approvals as noted in the minutes. The meeting proceeded to other business after votes were announced.
