Lincoln Heights council fast-tracks CRA policies, multiple resolutions and an ordinance with unanimous votes
Summary
At its June 10 meeting the Village of Lincoln Heights council approved several emergency resolutions — including Community Reinvestment Area (CRA) policies — an ordinance and a moratorium on sale of village-owned property, all passing by recorded 5–0 roll calls.
The Village of Lincoln Heights council voted unanimously on a package of legislative items during its June 10 meeting, adopting policies for a local Community Reinvestment Area (CRA), approving finance transfers, authorizing agreements for county grant funds and placing a temporary moratorium on sales of village-owned land.
Council read and passed Resolution 2024R45, described as "Resolution Approving Policies for the Village of Lincoln Heights, Ohio Community Reinvestment Area," after a motion to suspend rules and a roll-call vote that recorded five yeas and no nays. Council likewise approved Resolution 2024R46 (authorizing transfers between general-fund line items) and Resolution 2024R47 (authorizing the manager to discard or salvage village personal property); both passed on roll-call votes of 5–0, with emergency clauses adopted where recorded.
The council also approved Resolution 2024R48, authorizing the village manager to execute a Community and Economic Development Assistance Program (CDAP) agreement with the Hamilton County Board of Commissioners. Council enacted Resolution 2024R49 imposing a moratorium on sale of village-owned real estate and accepted several supplemental resolutions (including 2024R50 as listed on the supplemental agenda). The meeting concluded with title reading and passage motions for Ordinance 2024-04; recorded votes for these items were 5–0 where roll calls were taken.
