Broad Street, Suite 725, Columbus, OH 43215) Mayor Campbell noted that a letter has been sent to Mr. Smith from Tim Kelley, representing the applicant.

Mr. Kelley is requesting tabling until June 6, hoping that the plat will be finished before that time. Mr. Smith also noted that Mrs. King has raised a question concerning a wetlands study as discussed by Planning Commission.

He asked if curbing has been considered for Muirfield Drive in order to reduce the need for major maintenance every five or six years. Mr. Kindra responded that curbing would cost $20 to $25 per foot, adding up to a total cost of several million dollars. The benefits would not justify the expenditure. Mayor Campbell asked why Post Road is not included in the program. Mr. Kindra responded that Post Road is not included since a study is currently underway and the bridge is not yet completed.

He has received numerous complaints regarding the RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting Page 2 Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK R Held May 16, 1994 19 division. Although service has improved under Mr. Foegler's management, the improvements have fallen short of the community's expectations. He is hopeful that the division can improve over the next three or four months in terms of attitude and service levels. Mrs. King commented that she believes there aze more appropriate forums for this discussion, e.g., Council Committee or in a meeting with the City Manager and Department head. Discussion followed. Mr. Hansley noted that emergency action is necessary in order to fill the vacancy in the immediate future with a cazeer professional person.

Ordinance No. 41-94 - An Ordinance Amending the Annual Appropriations for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 1994. (to expand the Wyandot Discovery Camp program) (Second Reading) Mr. Hansley stated that Council had indicated support of the expansion of the program at their last meeting. Staff is recommending adoption at the third reading. Ms. Jordan noted that pazents have expressed their appreciation for the expansion of the sessions to coincide with the school yeaz. There will be a third reading at the June 6, 1994 Council meeting. Ordinance No. 42-94 - An Ordinance Authorizing the Transfer of a 0.079 Acre Tract to the Edwin J. Segner Trust. (Second Reading) Mr. Hansley noted that maps had been provided to Council in accordance with their request at the last meeting.

Ordinance No. 43-94 - An Ordinance to Adopt the Proposed Tax Budget for Fiscal Year 1995. (First Reading) Mr. Kranstuber introduced the ordinance. Mr. Hansley explained that the tax budget is a preliminary estimate of the City's expenditures for 1995, based on what was expended in 1994. Submission of the tax budget is a requirement of the state and county auditors. Ms. Grigsby explained that the document is utilized by the county auditor's office to evaluate and review the outside millage assessed to ensure that the city actually needs those millages assessed. There will be a second reading at the June 6, 1994 Council meeting. Ordinance No. 44-94 - An Ordinance Declaring Improvements to a Certain Parcel of Real Property to be a Public Purpose, Describing the Public Infrastructure Improvements to be Made to Benefit that Parcel, Requiring the Owners Thereof to Make Service Payments in Lieu of Taxes, Establishing a Municipal Public Improvement Tax Increment Equivalent Fund for the Deposit of Such Service Payments, and Declaring an Emergency. (First Reading) Mrs. King introduced the ordinance. Mr. Foegler explained that the state law authorizing the use of the tax increment financing will change effective July of 1994. This project involves the development of a 100,000 square foot office building on the southwest corner of Rings Road and I-270, built along what will be an eastern extension of Britton Pazkway. Britton Parkway currently terminates in the City of Columbus, but will eventually extend north across Rings Road and become what has been called the Coffman Road extension. The total value of the estimated improvements is (8)$750,000. This reflects afive-yeaz payback on the tax increment financing with the $8 million project. The minimum estimate of the new personal income tax generated to the City by the development would be in excess of $260,000 per yeaz. Tangible personal property tax which would be paid to the school would be an additional $32,000 per year. Staff is recommending approval by Council. This will be the first major office building project in Dublin since the Xerox project. The current office space vacancy in Dublin is 4 percent, and additional supply is needed. In addition to serving this building, the improvements RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin Ciry Council Meeting Page 3 Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK Held May 16, 1994 19 will open up a significant amount of Class 1, high quality office space along 270. The Britton extension will serve as the first link for the Coffman Road extension in the Southwest area. Negotiations are still underway with the prime tenant for the building, and thus the TIF agreement is with Duke Construction at this time. A public announcement will be made when the agreement is finalized with the tenant. Mayor Campbell provided a brief summary of the benefits of the TIF to the Ciry and the schools. He emphasized that these are not tax abatements of any kind. Mr. Foegler added that there is a memorandum in the packet explaining the change in state law affecting the TIF's. Mrs. King asked if provisions are made in the legislation to penalize entities which receive economic benefits and then relocate before the end of the payback period. Mr. Foegler responded that the new legislation (Senate Bi1119) effective July 1 will contain penalties for those who receive abatements and then cease operation. There is also a formal tax inducement review board to be set up locally to ensure that the commitments made are carried out. After July 1, tax abatements will be subject to these restrictions. Mrs. King noted that there are three freeway-oriented lots on the cul-de-sac, and two are split between Dublin and Columbus. It would make sense to negotiate a boundary adjustment with Columbus for jurisdictional reasons. Mr. Foegler stated that staff will explore this option. Mr. Foegler pointed out that a new Exhibit A has been distributed this evening to Council. This exhibit contains a more generic description of the public improvements associated with the project. Mrs. Stillwell stated that she is very pleased with the custom painting of the water tower contained in the improvements. Mr. Foegler explained that a concept will be presented at the next Council meeting for custom painting of the water tower to lessen its impact on prime office development. He added that the timeframes for the project necessitate emergency legislation. Mr. Strip moved to waive the three-time reading rule and treat as emergency legislation. Mr. Kranstuber seconded the motion. Vote on the motion -Mrs. Boring, yes; Mayor Campbell, yes; Mrs. Stillwell, yes; Mr. Strip, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Zawaly, yes.

Mr. Harding stated that at the last Council meeting, Council Member King requested that staff bring forth legislation initiating the process for establishment of this new position. Background information has been provided to Council along with the legislation. Mr. Foegler added that this is a follow-up to the Land Use Committee's review and discussion of the economic development strategy. Implementation of the recommended elements of the strategy includes establishment of this new position. Mr. Strip requested that Mr. Harding provide a memo regarding the costs to operate the office for this new position, including support staff, equipment, etc. There will be a second reading of the Ordinance at the June 6 Council meeting.

Mr. Foegler noted that the attachments were distributed this evening. The attachments show the sewer and water contract and its relationship to the annexation areas, the utility azeas, the sewerable azea north of Mui~eld, and the school districts in the Southwest quadrant. The policy reflects the general direction of Council and the specific direction of the Land Use Committee. Mrs. King requested that one map be provided, with the three separate azeas discussed in the policy color-coded. She is specifically concerned with the areas discussed in the annexation policy that are west of Avery in Franklin county and west of Avery in Union County, or the pieces which straddle the border.

Ordinance No. 30-94 - An Ordinance Authorizing a New Position (Court Security/Liaison Officer) and Amending Section 2 ("Wage & Salary Structure/Administration") and Section 12 ("Exempt &Non-Exempt Job Classifications") of Ordinance No. 23-93 ("Compensation Plan") (Tabled Ordinance) Mayor Campbell reported that previously tabled Ordinance No. 30-94 would have authorized a new RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting Page 5 Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK Held May 16, 1994 19 position, court liaison officer, to provide some courtroom security and to provide transportation of prisoners from the county jail to the Mayor's Court and to make court appearances at the municipal court whenever needed during apre-trial. Issues have since been raised about this position by the bargaining unit, and they are now attempting to address these staffing needs without additional personnel. Mayor Campbell then moved to take this ordinance from the table. Mr. Kranstuber seconded the motion. Mr. Hansley clarified that the issue with the bargaining unit was whether this position would be a sworn or non-sworn person. The situation will be monitored and considered again during the 1995 budget process. Staff is recommending defeat of the ordinance. Vote on removing from the table - Mr. Zawaly, yes; Mrs. Stillwell, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mayor Campbell, yes; Mr. Strip, yes.

Other Final Plat -Dublin Glen Ms. Clarke noted that this plat consists of four acres, divided into two parcels, located on the south side of Post Road. The proposal is to develop the acreage into 8single-family lots. There were 8 conditions appended by Planning Commission on May 5. She noted that there is no park dedication on the site, and the fee of $16,000 in lieu of parkland will be paid by the developer prior to recording of the plat. The developer contacted the owner of Perimeter Lakes Apartments and was unable to secure an easement across their property for the bikepath. The Law Director's office is currently pursuing the easement to connect the bike path, and the developer will be responsible for the cost of construction of that portion of the bike path.. This alternative route for the bikepath near the pond was selected due to the expense of constructing a bikepath near the large culvert along Post Road. Planning Commission recommended approval by a vote of 6-0. Mr. Kranstuber asked Ms. Clarke to identify the developer who will not cooperate in providing the bikepath easement. Ms. Clarke responded that the developer of Perimeter Lakes was the Newtowne Group, but they no longer own the property. Mr. Smith stated that Jim Delugas is now the property owner and he has not agreed to provide an easement. Mr. Kranstuber expressed concern about the lack of cooperation in providing this important bikepath link to the future Community Recreation Center. Mrs. King noted that this plan is in accord with the land use plan for Post Road in that it maintains the residential character of the road. Ms. Clarke clarified that in conjunction with the Perimeter Center rezoning, the Post Road Residents Association negotiated for single-family lots facing their own residences. The plan before Council tonight conforms with this previous commitment. Mrs. King added that it is important to recognize that Council is implementing a plan worked out years ago with the residents. It is also important for the residential landowners to contribute to the bikepath as every other development is required to do in Dublin. Mr. Kranstuber added that the Post Road residents were very supportive of the R-3 zoning in this plan. Mr. Bell has been very cooperative in working with the residents. In response to Mrs. Stillwell, Ms. Clarke stated that all of the conditions of the preliminary plat have been complied with. Mr. Strip moved to approve the final plat with the conditions of Planning & Zoning. Mr. Kranstuber seconded the motion. Vote on the motion -Mrs. Stillwell, yes; Mayor Campbell, yes; Mr. Zawaly, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mr. Strip, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting Page 6 Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK R Held May 16, 1994 19 i Reports from Council Committees There were no reports from Council Committees. Comments from Staff Mr. Kindra reported: 1. All overhead poles on Bridge Street have now been removed. 2. On May 25, the Ciry and ODOT will host an open house at the Dublin Community Church on Bridge Street regazding the 161 project from 6:30 p.m. until 8 p.m. 3. A developer has requested closure of a portion of Wilcox Road from 10 days to two weeks for construction purpose. 4. The waterline work on Rings Road has now been completed. Mrs. King expressed concern about the proposed closing of Wilcox Road. Mr. Kindra noted that the work being done is for the Heather Glen 3 subdivision, and utilities must be brought across the road necessitating closure of the road. The closure would be for a week to ten days, but local traffic will be maintained by using Heather Glen Boulevazd. Mr. Strip suggested that the work could be done at night to shorten the closing period. Mr. Foegler added that Heather Glen Boulevazd was designed to be the major through street to carry traffic, and this section of Wilcox is the one which was designed to be abandoned. No access will be denied by virtue of this closing. Mrs. King suggested that the Heather Glen Civic Association be contacted by staff prior to any road closure. Mrs. Stillwell noted that the installation of the landscaping buffer for Heather Glen is scheduled to begin azound May 23, and hopefully the closure will not affect this project. It was the consensus of Council to address this item at the next Council meeting in order to allow the Heather Glen residents the opportunity for input. Council further directed staff to contact the residents and provide them with information about the planned closing. Mr. Hanslev noted that the clerk will be out of town next week and requested that Council appoint Mazsha Grigsby as Acting Clerk for that time period. Mr. Zawaly moved that Ms. Grigsby be appointed Acting Clerk. Mrs. Stillwell seconded the motion. Vote on the motion -Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mayor Campbell, yes; Mr. Strip, yes; Mr. Zawaly, yes; Mrs. Stillwell, yes; Mrs. King, yes. Mr. Hanslev also reported that a memo was included in the packet regazding a proposed soccer tournament and asked Ms. Puskazcik to comment. Ms. Puskazcik stated that the Irish Embassy has contacted the Ciry of Dublin in regazd to sending a team from Ireland to play a team from American during Dublin's Irish Festival. The memo contains details on estimated costs. The Irish Embassy is considering making this an annual event, and discussion has also taken place with the Xoggz on participation. Mr. Hansley further explained that staff would like a motion from Council to endorse the concept this evening, allowing staff to put together a bid, and then later return to Council for appropriations for the event. Tentative approval has been obtained for use of the high school stadium. Brief discussion followed. Mr. Zawaly expressed concern about the process and the timing. This proposal could have been reviewed by the Finance Committee who would have brought a recommendation to Council. Mayor Campbell suggested that if Council endorses the concept tonight, there would be adequate time for the Finance Committee to meet with staff and cazefully review the numbers prior to submitting a bid. He also noted that a Billy Joel concert has been scheduled at Ohio Stadium on the same day, and this may affect the attendance. Mr. Kranstuber moved to approve the concept of bringing the Irish Team to Dublin for the Irish Festival and that the financial information be reviewed by the Finance Committee prior to any RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting Page 7 Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK Held May 16, 1994 19 contact with the Irish team. Mr. Strip seconded the motion. Mrs. Stillwell asked for clazification about the larger purpose of this event - to provide entertainment as part of the Irish Festival, or to grow and attract 10,000 people to Dublin? Is Dublin prepared to handle this size of event? Mr. Hansley responded that this event fits in with Council's previously established goals to do more sporting events, i.e., the Chill, the Xoggz, and other special events. In this case, securing the Irish team during the Irish Festival is particulazly appropriate. Vote on the motion - Mr. Zawaly, yes; Mrs. Stillwell, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mrs. Boring, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mayor Campbell, yes; Mr. Strip, yes. Ms. Jordan stated that a resolution will be presented at the next Council meeting regazding the continuation of the pazk inventory program via application for a grant from ODNR. She added that the registration program on Saturday for upcoming Pazks programs was very successful. Chief Ferrell reported that he represented Council at the D.A.R.E. graduation this evening. He noted that this is the fifth yeaz of the D.A.R.E. program in Dublin. Council Roundtable Mr. Kranstuber noted a correction to the phone list distributed tonight: he has a new office telephone number which should be listed under the Planning & Zoning section as well as under the Council section. Mrs. King: 1. Noted that the sign on the Xerox building is neazly invisible from the freeway. She suggested consideration of the size of signage allowed on corporate headquarters located along the freeway. Mrs. Clarke responded that staff has been reviewing the sign code since last September. She noted that her expectation is that the revised code will include different guidelines for structures abutting the freeway. The current maximum sign height is 15 feet and the maximum size of a ground sign is 50 squaze feet. The draft sign code will be submitted to Planning and Zoning Commission, and then to City Council. 2. Mrs. King appreciates the follow-up on the "Coffee with Council" program. She suggested using the library as a site for the program, but agrees that the Chamber site would also be appropriate. Mayor Campbell responded that a factor to be considered would be privacy versus a very public site. He would be willing to explore use of the library site. He noted that he will be unable to staff the June meeting due to an out of town conference. Following discussion, it was the consensus of Council to have the clerk check the availability of the library meeting room on the last Saturday of the next few months. Mrs. Boring and Mr. Zawaly volunteered to staff the "Coffee with Council" program on Saturday morning, June 25. Mayor Campbell and Mrs. Stillwell volunteered for Saturday, July 30. 3. Mrs. King stated that the draft of the business cazds looks great and suggested that Council direct staff to proceed with the printing. Brief discussion followed about the content of the cards, the quantity and the cost.
