Re: Ordinance 83-21 – An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into an
Infrastructure Agreement with Paragon Building Group, Ltd and Union County for
the Hyland Glen Development – Follow Up Information
Background
Ordinance 83-21 was introduced during the November 15, 2021 City Council meeting. Council was
supportive of the proposed infrastructure agreement and requested additional information
regarding the projected financial performance of an incentive district (Residential TIF) for the
Hyland Glen development. The information provided at the first reading is attached for reference
regarding the specifics of the proposed infrastructure agreement.
Summary
The proposed infrastructure agreement allows for the potential creation of an Incentive District on
this residential development. The purpose of the language is to provide the City with the flexibility
to establish a Hyland Glen Incentive District to make available a revenue stream to finance the City’s
portion of the public infrastructure improvements as specified in the proposed infrastructure
agreement. An Incentive District is a TIF authorized under ORC 5709.40(C), which can be used to
capture incremental value from owner-occupied housing. Most recently, Council approved a
Residential TIF for the Riviera development to help facilitate the construction of Cacchio Lane.
Statutorily, the City is able to create an Incentive District for a period not to exceed ten years and
exempt up to 75% of the improvements without approval from the Dublin City School District or
Tolles Career and Technical Center. Consistent with the City’s standard practice of establishing non-
school TIFs, this Incentive District would be structured to not adversely impact the schools.
Based on the proposed development, the total residential property valuation is an estimated $66.3
million at full build out. Using a 25% exemption as was adopted for the Riviera TIF, the improved
valuation created by this project would generate an estimated $900,000 over 10 years. Using the
75% permitted under the ORC, would generate $2.6 million over ten years.
Recommendation
The proposed infrastructure agreement permits, but does not require, the City to create an Incentive
District on this residential development. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance XX-21 at the
second reading/public hearing on November 15, 2021, authorizing the City Manager to enter into an
Infrastructure Agreement with Paragon Building Group, Ltd and Union County for the Hyland Glen
Development.

Re: Ordinance 83-21 – An Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into an
Infrastructure Agreement with Paragon Building Group, Ltd and Union County for the
Hyland Glen Development
Background
Paragon Building Group, LTD. (“Developer”) is proposing to develop a residential development,
Hyland Glen, on a 42.5-acre site located northeast of the intersection of Hyland-Croy Road and
Post Road. As the property would need to be rezoned from R, Rural District to PUD, Planned Unit
Development District, staff have been working on the proposal to ensure that the plans meet the
criteria for review and approval as described in Section 153.050 of the Zoning Code.
This memorandum pertains to a proposed Infrastructure Agreement between the Developer, the
City of Dublin, and Union County. Execution of an infrastructure agreement is a condition of
approval recommended by Planning and Zoning Commission for the Rezoning and Preliminary
Development Plan.
Transportation Analysis
As part of the development review process and rezoning, the developer was required to submit a
Traffic Impact Study (TIS) performed by a qualified professional engineer to the City for review
and approval. As Hyland-Croy Road is within Union County’s jurisdiction, they are partners in the
review of the traffic impact study and also control access to this roadway. The TIS models the
traffic on the existing roadways, evaluates impacts of the additional traffic on the surrounding
roadway network, and recommends mitigation measures for these impacts.
In July 2021, the applicant submitted a TIS as required for this rezoning application, which was
considered prior to the September 16, 2021 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. The study
provided at the time of the PZC hearing recommended certain improvements to mitigate the
anticipated development traffic impacts, but was not yet accepted by the City of Dublin or the
Union County Engineer’s Office.
Most recently, an amended and revised TIS was submitted on October 20, 2021 and is under
review. The TIS should be finalized and accepted by both the City of Dublin and the Union County
Engineer. As a result of the unique relationship between this proposed development and the
planned Post Preserve access modifications associated with the programmed US-33/SR 161/Post
Road Interchange Improvements, a non-traditional funding approach is being proposed to address
the transportation improvements. Additionally, the unique location of the Development provides an

opportunity for a City gateway reserve area to include the preservation of cultural resources
including a historic barn and granary consistent with the intent of the Community Plan and further
contributes to the need for a non-traditional funding approach.
The Infrastructure Agreement addresses regional transportation improvements, the internal
roadways in the development, Hyland-Croy Road Improvements, a gateway reserve, neighborhood
entrance features, right-of-way and easement dedications, and necessary utility extensions.
Additionally, the Agreement establishes the cost sharing commitments for the Developer and City
while also determining the phasing and timing to the necessary improvements.
Interchange Improvements
The plans for improvements to the interchange at
US-33/SR 161/Post Road include a realignment of
the northbound off-ramp US-33/SR 161 to align
with the current intersection of Hyland-Croy Road
and Post Road (see image). Although previously a
roundabout, the intersection control at the
northbound off-ramp US-33/SR 161, Hyland-Croy
Road, and Post Road will now be a traffic signal.
The detailed design process for the US 33 – SR 161
– Post Road Interchange Improvements initially
began in the early 2000s when discussions with the
Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT)
identified that the access point for Post Preserve
Boulevard at Post Road would need to be removed
due to the planned interchange improvements and
associated extension of the limited access right-of-way. Recent evaluation and discussions with
ODOT, however, have allowed the access point to remain, with a restriction to right turn only
movements (right-in/right-out).
A non-traditional cost sharing approach is being proposed with several strategic goals in mind. The
City is best positioned to minimize potential impacts to citizens travelling Hyland-Croy Road by very
closely coordinating with ODOT the timing and details of construction activities associated with the
identified improvements on Hyland-Croy Road with the adjoining interchange improvements.
Dublin staff are also in discussions with the Union County Engineer about potentially expanding the
scope of improvements to Hyland-Croy Road between Post Road and Park Mill Drive to leverage
the construction of the Post Road Interchange and Hyland Glen. Additionally, the unique location
of the Development provides an opportunity for a City gateway reserve area to include the
preservation of cultural resources including a historic barn and granary and staff are best
positioned to lead the design of this reserve. Finally, prior to this proposed development, a few of
the internal roadways were previously planned as the City’s local roadway connections needed for
the Post Preserve Access Modification project. Therefore, instead of Dublin and the Developer
sharing the costs of design and construction of the interior streets and Hyland-Croy Road
intersection improvements proportionally, this Infrastructure Agreement proposes Dublin design
and construct the identified improvements on Hyland-Croy Road, and the Developer design and
construct the interior streets. This non-traditional cost sharing approach maintains Dublin’s
anticipated funding commitment at a comparable level to that which was contemplated with the
prior development (and infrastructure agreement) that was proposed in late 2020.

Internal Roadways
The Developer agrees to design and construct all internal roadways solely at the Developer’s cost.
Regional Transportation Improvement Contributions
The TIS analyzed the impacts of anticipated site traffic to the regional transportation network
including Hyland-Croy corridor; Hyland-Croy Road and Post Road; Hyland-Croy Road and Park Mill
Drive; and Hyland-Croy Road and Brand Road roundabout. The City will contribute $125,100 to
improvements to Hyland-Croy Road on behalf of the Developer, which amount constitutes full and
final payment for all required contributions for regional traffic impacts from the Development.
Hyland-Croy Road Improvements
The City will design and construct the identified improvements on Hyland-Croy Road at the
proposed intersections with Springview Lane, Moorland Drive, and Holbein Drive. Construction will
include the shared-use path that is planned to generally run parallel to, and alongside, Hyland-
Croy Road between Post Road and Park Mill Drive as designed and depicted on the Developer’s
Final Development Plan.
Gateway Reserve “A”
The Developer will donate at no cost to the City parkland required by the approved rezoning as
described in the text and depicted on the PDP for Hyland Glen, including Gateway Reserve “A”.
Responsibility for payment for the Gateway Reserve “A” shall be allocated between the Parties as
follows:
• The Developer will design and construct all stormwater management features required for the
Development including, but not limited to, grading and temporary seeding.
• The City will design and construct any improvements related to landscaping, sidewalk/shared-
use paths, City entrance feature, and cultural preservation of a historic barn and granary.
Neighborhood Entrance Features
The Developer agrees to pay 100% of the cost and will be responsible for the design and
construction of the neighborhood entry features at Springview Lane and Hyland-Croy Road, and at
Moorland Drive and Hyland-Croy Road, and at Holbein Drive and Hyland-Croy Road. These
neighborhood entrance features will be maintained by the Hyland Glen Homeowners Association.
Right-of-Way and Easement Dedication
As is standard practice, the Developer will donate the right-of-way to Dublin, for land which
Developer is under contract to purchase for Hyland Glen, necessary for all roadways within the
development (Internal Roadways), at no cost to Dublin or Union County.
Additionally, the Developer will donate the right-of-way to Union County, for land which Developer
is under contract to purchase for Hyland Glen (50’ from the centerline of Hyland-Croy Road),
necessary for all improvements on Hyland-Croy Road adjacent to Hyland Glen between Post Road
and Park Mill Drive, at no cost to the City or Union County.
The Developer will also donate the right-of-way, for land which Developer is under contract to
purchase for Hyland Glen, necessary for all rights-of-way and Reserves for the construction of the
neighborhood entrance features, at no cost to the City or Union County.
Memo re. Ordinance 83-21 – Hyland Glen Infrastructure Agreement

Page 4 of 4
Finally, the Developer will donate at no cost to the City any other utility, public improvement
and/or temporary construction easements, for land which the Developer has under contract to
purchase for Hyland Glen, that may be necessary or otherwise required.
Post Preserve Boulevard and Post Road Intersection
The City will construct and pay 100% of costs associated with converting the Post Preserve
Boulevard and Post Road intersection to a right-in/right-out condition in accordance with the ODOT
requirements and timing relative to the scheduled US-33/SR 161/Post Road Interchange
Improvements.
Construction and Inspection
Provisions are contained within the proposed Agreement for acceptable design review and
approval of all public improvements by Dublin and Union County. Dublin and Union County will also
inspect the construction of public improvements to ensure compliance with the approved plans.
Moorland Drive, Stillhouse Lane, Springview Lane, and Holbein Drive and neighborhood entrance
features as specifically provided for herein shall be constructed and concurrently open to traffic no
later than 24 months from receipt of final development plan approval, final plat approval and all
engineering permits required to commence construction of the single-family sub-areas and the
roadways.
Water and Sanitary Sewer Improvements
The Developer will pay 100% of all costs associated with water and sanitary sewer extensions and
improvements. Access to public water for domestic and fire protection use will be available by the
construction of new public water main from the south along Hyland-Croy Road. Additionally, this
proposal provides for the construction of new public water main within the development, including
new fire hydrants. New public sanitary sewer is proposed with this development to provide access
for the proposed lots and will connect to existing sanitary sewer located to the east of this
development.
Potential Creation of a Tax Increment Financing District (TIF)
The Infrastructure Agreement references the City’s intention to include the property within a tax
increment financing area (a “non-school” TIF). Council could consider a residential TIF to garner
more revenue for future infrastructure projects in the immediate area. Most recently, Council
approved a residential TIF for the Riviera development to help facilitate the construction of Cacchio
Lane.
Recommendation
The Developer and Union County staff have reviewed the Infrastructure Agreement and are
agreeable to the terms contained therein. Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 83-21 at the
second reading/public hearing on November 15, 2021, authorizing the City Manager to enter into
an Infrastructure Agreement with Paragon Building Group, Ltd and Union County for the Hyland
Glen Development.
