Council sets June 2 public hearing for comprehensive plan and votes to meet in executive session on compensation
Summary
Council set a public hearing for June 2 at 6:15 p.m. to consider the comprehensive plan and approved a motion to retire to executive session after reports to discuss public-employee compensation under ORC 121.22.
Harrison City Council voted May 19 to set a public hearing on the city’s comprehensive plan for June 2, 2026, beginning at 6:15 p.m., after the planning commission reported it had recommended adoption with contingencies and requested an earlier start time to allow for a longer presentation and public comment period.
Council members said the earlier start will give staff and residents more time to present and hear questions about items such as a site behind the activity center that the planning commission asked be addressed before final adoption. The hearing was set by motion and approved on a roll-call vote.
Separately, a council member moved — and the council seconded — to adjourn to executive session after the reports to discuss compensation of a public employee per Ohio Revised Code 121.22. The motion carried on a recorded vote. Council indicated the executive session would follow the remainder of the evening’s reports and closed-business items; no personnel decisions were announced at the meeting’s end.
What to watch for: The comprehensive-plan hearing will be the next opportunity for public comment and for the council to consider the planning commission’s recommendations and contingencies before any final adoption vote.
