Orrville adopts Wayne Street sidewalk policy and resolution of necessity
Summary
Council adopted Resolution 5-26 establishing sidewalk-installation policies for Wayne Street and Resolution 6-26 declaring the necessity to construct sidewalks on specified properties, starting the three-year notice period for affected property owners.
The Orrville City Council on April 6 adopted two related measures to move forward with sidewalk construction on Wayne Street. Resolution 5-26 establishes the city's policy for sidewalk installation consistent with prior phases; Resolution 6-26 declares the statutory necessity to construct sidewalks on specified properties along the west side of Wayne Street from Homestead Pointe Drive to Oak Street.
Council discussed that letters will be sent to affected property owners advising they have three years to install sidewalks under the established policy. Squirrell moved to suspend the normal three-reading rule for the resolution to allow immediate adoption; council approved both resolutions by voice vote.
The resolutions follow the procedures required by the Ohio Revised Code for municipal sidewalk projects: adoption of a policy followed by a formal resolution of necessity that initiates the notice and construction timeline.
