Hebron council lists hay-harvest bid and Community Reinvestment Area ordinance on Jan. 15 agenda
Summary
At its Jan. 15 meeting, Hebron’s combined council committees listed Resolution 24-21 (award of hay-harvest rights at T.J. Evans Park) at third reading and Ordinance 01-25 (establishing a Community Reinvestment Area under Ohio law) at second reading; no final votes on those measures were recorded.
Village of Hebron officials reviewed two items of pending legislation during the Jan. 15, 2025 combined council committees meeting.
The agenda listed Resolution 24-21, described as a third-reading matter to accept and award the bid for the right to cut and harvest hay at T.J. Evans Park for the 2025 crop season to Paul Medley. Village Administrator Jung-Han Chen read the pending item but the minutes do not record a vote or formal action on the resolution at this meeting.
Also on the agenda was Ordinance 01-25, placed at second reading. The ordinance would amend prior local measures and, citing sections 3735.65 through 3735.70 of the Ohio Revised Code, establish and describe the boundaries of a Community Reinvestment Area and designate a housing officer to administer the program. Mr. Chen listed the ordinance title and its citation to the Ohio Revised Code; the minutes do not record further debate or a vote during the Jan. 15 meeting.
Why it matters: a Community Reinvestment Area can allow local tax incentives or abatements for qualifying residential development and a designated housing officer would administer any program the council ultimately adopts. The resolution on T.J. Evans Park would change who holds the right to harvest hay on village land for the 2025 season if approved in a later action.
The minutes do not record formal votes on either item at the Jan. 15 meeting. Both matters remain on future agendas for final action or further consideration.
