North Royalton council postpones park alcohol measures, advances purchase and wastewater items
Summary
At its April 7 meeting the council postponed two ordinances on intoxicating beverages in city parks to April 21, placed multiple first-reading items on second reading, and authorized procurement items including a planned purchase of a 2026 Chevrolet Silverado for the fire department (not to exceed $50,036).
North Royalton City Council on April 7 postponed two ordinances that would change park alcohol rules and fees and moved several first-reading measures to a future meeting for further consideration.
On third reading the council voted to postpone Ordinance 26-51, which would repeal and replace the city's parks rules to add a new intoxication-beverage section, and Ordinance 26-52, which would establish fees for intoxication-beverage events on city-owned or city-controlled lands. Both postponement motions were moved by President Paul Marnecheck, seconded by Councilman Gary Petrusky, and carried on roll call votes (Yeas: Marnecheck, Coleman, Petrusky, Wojslaw, Green).
Council also placed several first-reading ordinances on second reading for later action. Those items include: Ordinance 26-61 to retain the Cuyahoga County Planning Commission to conduct the North Royalton 2026 redistricting study; Ordinance 26-62 authorizing the mayor to purchase one 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 for the fire department for an amount not to exceed $50,036.00 (vendor Tim Lally Chevrolet, Inc.); Ordinance 26-63 to amend the city’s agreement with the International Association of Professional Fire Fighters, AFL-CIO Local 2156 by entering into a memorandum of understanding; Resolution 26-64 accepting Kokosing Materials, Inc.’s bid for asphalt for the 2026 season; Ordinance 26-65 accepting a bid from Bonded Chemicals for ferric chloride at a price not to exceed $1,199.00 per dry ton delivered; Ordinance 26-66 authorizing application for a Water Pollution Control Loan Fund (WPCLF) loan estimated at about $1,020,000 for Wastewater Treatment Plants A & B improvements; and Ordinance 26-67 to increase the wastewater department’s purchase order cap with vendor Buckeye Pumps (the new cap amount was not specified in the transcript).
Two proposed charter amendments introduced by the mayor — Ordinance 26-68 (amend Article I, Powers) and Ordinance 26-69 (amend Article VII, Police and Fire Department) — were placed on second reading and referred to the Review and Oversight Committee.
Council recessed into an executive session to consider appointment or employment matters under ORC 121.22(G)(1). The session convened at 9:21 p.m. and concluded at 9:55 p.m.; the regular meeting reconvened and adjourned at 9:58 p.m.
No formal final votes adopting ordinances were recorded in the regular session; several items were postponed or advanced to the next reading for further consideration.
