Hilliard council sets May 26 public hearing on annexation of 2.22 acres in Norwich Township
Summary
Council read Ordinance 26-12 by title to accept the application to annex roughly 2.22 acres (a farmhouse parcel and adjacent railroad parcel) in Norwich Township and scheduled the second-reading public hearing for May 26, 2026.
The Hilliard City Council on May 11 read by title Ordinance 26-12, which accepts an application to annex about 2.22 acres in Norwich Township and assigns a zoning classification to the property. Council set the second-reading public hearing for May 26, 2026.
A staff member described the site as two parcels acquired by HDC on behalf of the city: approximately 1.6 acres containing a farmhouse and roughly 0.6 acres of adjacent railroad property. Staff said annexation would remove an unincorporated island adjacent to city land and allow the city to assign municipal services and zoning for the parcels.
There was no final action on the ordinance at the May 11 meeting; council was told the second-reading public hearing is scheduled for May 26, when the city will take additional public input before any legislative vote.
The presentation identified the parcels' approximate sizes and the purpose of the annexation but did not include a vote or additional ordinance details beyond the title reading and the scheduled public hearing.
