HomeMy WebLinkAbout07/18/1983 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 1 Minutes of Meeting ~ National Graphics Corp,. Cols,. O. Form No. 1097 ~ 11 eld July 18, 1983 19 -....., The regular meeting of Council was called to order by Mayor Lewis at 7:30 P.M. with the following members present: Amorose, Chambers, Headlee, lewis, Maurer Thornton and Sutphen. Also present were Mr. Sheldon, Village Manager, Mr. Strutner, serving as Acting Clerk, and Mr. Smith, law Director. ,.. Mr. Amorose moved, seconded by Mr. Sutphen, to approve the minutes of the July 5th meeting. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval. Mr. Thornton moved, seconded by Mrs. Headlee, to approve the bill listing for July 18th. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval. Mr. Thornton did comment on the $250.00 bill for the Dublin High School Bond's appearance at the July 4th activities. Despite the fact that no tax money would be spent - various civic organizations underwrite such costs and reimburse the Village - he is still miffed about a public institution charging such a fee. Resolution No: 12-83 Said resolution authorizing participation in and appointing a citizen repre- sentative to the Dublin Arts Council was read for the third time. Because said Arts Council is still in the midst of incorporating, and has yet to achieve legal status, it was moved by Mr. Amorose, seconded by Mrs. Maurer, to table the resolution. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval. "... ! Ordinance No: 34-83 Said ordinance to amend the Electronic Game Ordinance # 26-82 by deleting the provisions establishing the maximum number of such devices permitted for any one individual or premises was read for the second time. Mr. William large of Time Out Amusements appeared before the Council and presented a 7 minute tape on said electronic amusement games. He spoke on the two variables in the Village's ordinance that he objects to: 1) The fees, which he described as excessive and prohibitive; and 2) The Maximum number of games permitted, whic~ he believes limits the amount of business which can be generated. Mr. Chamber~ stated that he has been unable to determine where a majority of the community lies on this issue. He feels that the existing ordinance exhibits a lack of trust in the business community and limits a minority of the business sector. ...... Ordinance No: 36-83 Said ordinance to accept the lowest and best bid for Frantz Road Improvements (boulevarding) was introduced by Mr. Thornton and read for the first time. The low bid was submitted by Decker Construction Co. for $654,659.50. Mr. Amorose moved, seconded by Mrs. Maurer, to accept the bid by Decker Construction Co., and dispense with the 3-time reading rule and pass the ordinance as an emergency. Vote on the ordinance and the motion was unanimous for approval. Ordinance No: 37-83 Said ordinance to issue notes for Frantz Road Improvements (boulevarding) in the amount of $655,000.00 was introduced by Mr. Sutphen and read for the first time. The low bid of 6.36% was submitted by The Ohio Company. Mr. Sutphen, moved, seconded by Mr. Thornton, to accept the low bid of The Ohio Company, and to dispense with the 3-time reading rule and pass the ordinance as an emer- gency. Vote on the motion the ordinance was unanimous for approval. ...... Ordinance No: 38-83 Said ordinance to rezone 8.397 acres just north of 84 N. High Street from R-2 to R-4 and CB was introduced by Mrs. Maurer and read for the first time. Mr. Amorose moved, seconded by Mr. Sutphen, to forward the matter to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval. Council will hold its public hearing on the ordinance in September. Mr. Thornton ex- pressed concern that this area might result in another Billingsley ditch situa- tion. ,.... Amended Plat - "Woods at Muirfield", Phase II Mr. Sutphen moved, seconded by Mr. Amorose, to accept this plat. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval. Final Plat - Muirfield Village, Phase 21 Mrs. Headlee moved, seconded by Mr. Thornton, to accept this plat. Vote on the motion was unanimous for approval.

Cols,. 0, Form No. 1097 ~ Held July1B, 1983 19 Page 2. ,. L Mr. lewis expressed his appreciation to the Council for approving the bid ac- ceptance and note ordinances relating to the Frantz Road Improvements. He re- gards this project as the most important of our recent capital improvements. It will enhance our major business corridor and its long range impact will be to divert traffic from the Old Dublin area. Mr. lewis announced that he had received the report of the Charter Review Com- mittee. They believed that the Charter was working satisfactorily at this time and therefore, they recommend no changes at this time. It was suggested that further study regarding the Board of Zoning Appeals is warranted, perhaps resulting in the elimination of same and transfer of its powers to the Council. The Mayor expressed his appreciation for their efforts. He said that he had also discussed casually with the Charter Committee whether Dublin's 175th Anni versary in 1985 would be an appropriate time for Dublin to become a "city". The committee involved with planning this anniversary celebration also expressej much enthusiasm for linking the change to city status with their activities planned for July 4, 1985. Mr. lewis has asked the Charter Committee to con- tinue without any expressed, current assignment, but to resume and receive com- ments on the Charter at the appropriate time. r ...... Mr. Chambers objected to dropping the matter at this point and not eliciting further discussion. Mr. lewis stated that Mr. Chambers could present his op- inions to the Council in writing. Mr. Chambers replied that he will issue a written statement to the Council and press within 3-4 days. He stated that the intent of Council' soriginal motion, establishing the committee and its charge, had not been met and that public input had not been obtained. Mr. lewis replied that in his letter to the committee he had requested that they garner public input, and that such had been elicited by public announcements at Council meetings and through media announcements and coverage. He felt that the committee had performed their task well. They contacted many of previous Charter committee members and had requested that interested persons either write their suggestions or appear before the committee. Mrs. Maurer estimated that 4 persons appeared before the committee, and 10-15 letters were received, predominantly all of which supported a continuing exami- nation of the Charter, but suggested no changes at this time. Mr. lewis suggested that the Committee meet with Council, if the Council so de- sired, at the August 1st meeting and at that time any other interested persons could appear also. It was pointed out that any Council action on a Charter change would have to pass by emergency on August 15 in order to place same on the November ballot. Mr. Chambers then moved, seconded by Mr. Thornton, that Council consider it- self as a committee-of-the-whole to listen to any member of the public who wishes to discuss any part of the Charter and that this be done at the con- clusion of the regular meeting on August 1. The motion passed unanimously. ,... L Council Roundtable Discussion Mrs. Headlee questioned the status of fringe benefits which were to be accom- plished by July 1. Mr. Sheldon informed Council that the Personnel Review Board would be re-convening shortly to consider this matter, and hopefully re- port to the Council by August 15. Mr. Sutphen commented on the speeding still occuring on Carnoustie Drive, de- spi te the fact that the speed limit had been lowered from 30 to 25 MPH and re- quested increased police patrol in the area. Mr. Chambers 1. Announced that Council's Capital Improvement Committee will be submitting its report shortly. 2. Referred to Mr. Armbruster's letter RE: Billingsley Ditch and requested that the Manager respond with a letter assuring this gentleman that the culvert on MacBeth Drive would be considered for future action as a capital improvement. - !U,JJ1'UU iLl. ....Ii ... _:<:In -.i!i#'<--"d'"",,- J -3llil _ ~ - RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 5 Minutes of Meeting ~ National Graphics Corp., Cols" 0, Form No. 1097 ~ Held July 18, 1983 19 Page 3. ",... I ... 3. Announced that he has obtained voter registration lists which show that there are 3,268 registered voters in Dublin. He surmised that taking into account children and non-registered persons we must be in excess of 5,000 pop- ulation. While he has considerable sympathy for becoming a city in 1985, to eliminate the 7 mills of unnessary taxes that residents of Ward I pay for ser- vices that are provided by the Village we must become a city. He will be pushing for an earlier solution than 1985. 4. He referred to the alleged crime problem in Muirfield and said he was not aware of any special problem. If a problem exists, he would like to be made aware of it. Mr. lewis 1. Suggested the Clerk respond for the Council on the Billingsley Ditch matter. The Council concurred with this. 2. Stated that the Police Department and Manager were investigating the Muirfield crime problem and ex- pected that as more information becomes available it will be reported to Counci in a timely fashion. 3. Regarding the achievement of city status and the 7 mills paid by Ward I residents, he said city status alone will not resolve the matter; it will be necessary to form our own township. Mr. Chambers disagreed. Mr. Smith was asked, but declined to comment at this time. Mr. Sheldon announced that the Dublin School District had requested that: 1) The Village move the existing warning siren on the east side of High School Road to the west side of said road, and 2) Vacate High School Road and grant the district control. Mr. Sheldon will proceed with #1 and will prepare the appropriate legislation for 112. r ..... Mr. Smith pnnounced that: 1) He will soon be reporting on the meeting he had with Consumers' Counsel, 2) Our gas rate case is scheduled for a PUCO hearing on August 29th, and 3) he had met with Mr. Sheldon, Mr. Pickett and others to discuss the pri vately funded athletic complex proposal.
