Mayor Close reminded those present of the Council Rules of Order as they
pertain to Public Hearings.
Ordinance No. 64-86 - Rezoning of a 95.12 Acre Tract Located at the
Southwest Corner of Brand Road and S.R. 745. Public Hearing.
Registered proponents for Ordinance No. 64-86 were Mr. Ben Hale, Jr.,
Mr. Jim Houk, Mr. Christopher Cline, and Mrs. Marlaine Manus.
Mr. Bowman, Village Planner, had the following comments:
1. This case is back to Council after being reconsidered by the
Planning and Zoning Commission.
2. The subject site contains 95.12 acres located at the southwest
corner of Brand Road and S.R. 745.
3. The applicant proposes to rezone the property to the PLR classifi-
cation. This will permit, as planned, for development of the
property into 160 single-family lots.
4. The gross density under the plan is 1.68 dwelling units per acre.
5. The plan shows a 100' setback on Brand Road.
6. The lots within the subdivision are for the most part 100' in
width. The smallest lot in the subdivision is 85' by 150'.
7. The site will have a main access road which will be 60' in width
that will intersect both Dublin Road and Brand Road. The rest
of the streets will be 50' in width, except for one condition
which will be examined.
8. There is still an opportunity to relocate Brand Road;approximately
two acres of land will be set aside at the intersection of Brand
Road and S.R. 745 that will be left to the Village at some time
to determine whether or not Brand Road should be relocated further
to the south.
9. The overall density is consistent with R-2 standards; it is similar
to Donegal Cliffs, and is consistent with the Northwest Quad Study
recommendations which was adopted in 1980.
10. The applicants reworked the road system. The road running by the
park has been reworked and completely unloaded.
11. The waterline will need to be extended up S.R. 745 from the library
to service this property. That will be between the applicant and
staff, should Council rezone this property.
12. Staff recommended approval.
13. The Planning Commission, by a 4-2 vote, also recommended approval
of the rezoning with the following conditions:
A. As regards the park. The Commission expected the developer and
the staff to make a decision as to whether that roadway should
be 36' wide or the standard 26'.
B. That there be a proper determination of the study as to whether
or not Brand Road should be relocated from its present con-
figuration to the south.
C. The developer has also made a commitment on the bike path
along S.R. 745 as long as the details can be worked out with
staff, and through a study, as to the location of that bikeway.
D. Have pledged that additional right-of-way be granted along
S.R. 745 in conformance with the Village's thoroughfare plan.
E. That there will be no storm water retention or detention on
the park land.
F. That all of the above conditions will be shown on the prelimi-
nary plat for the Commission's review should the rezoning be
approved.

Mr. Jim Houk reported that the major change on the plan has dealt with
the park frontage and the road fronting the park. There will be a
single loaded road fronting along the north border of the park to
the McKitrick office property. Have agreed to the 60' right-of-way
as well as a 36' pavement, as well as the installation of an 8' bike
path along S.R. 745, with the location and timing to be determined by
staff. They have also agreed to comply with whatever is decided as
to the Brand Road intersection. The gross density will be 1.68; the
net density will be 2.2. There will be 160 lots, the previous plan
having 164 lots.
Mr. Ben Hale, Jr. mentioned that since March, 1986 when the plan was
first presented there have been five revisions.
Mr. Hale pointed out that they have lined both Brand Road and S.R. 745
with large lots, with large setbacks so that they will be in keeping
with the rural atmosphere that is there.
The average cost per lot will be approximately $40,000.00 per lot;
housing will be around $225,000.00.
Mr. Christopher Cline, representing residents on Brand Road said that
it should be noted that these particular residents do not have the
protection of being in a subdivision, and therefore their risk is
greater. Mr. Cline said that they would prefer that this area develop
before the PUD office to the south so that that area would have to
adapt and provide a buffer to this single-family development.
Mrs. Manus of Dublin Road said that she agreed with Mr. ClineJs comments,
and was in favor of this plan.
Mr. Dennis Muchnicki, a registered opponent, commented that he would
like to focus on one particular point - the evaluation of which area
should be park land.
Mr. Muchnicki said that the Ohio Department of Natural Resources,
Division of Natural Areas, attempted to go onto this site to see if
there were any particular areas of the site that should be preserved,
and Multicon denied them access.
He said that he thought that the two acres designated as park land at
the entryway should be added to the park acreage along the stream.
The more protection that is provided for the stream the better, speci-
fically as regards erosion control.
Mrs.
1.
Diane Nicholls expressed two major concerns:
The master planning process that has been undertaken, and then
subsequently allowing a large project such as this to go through,
noting that this was a prime wooded area within Dublin.
The traffic load on S.R. 745.
O.D.O.T. has recommended that the Village conduct their own
traffic study on S.R. 745, and such a study has not been done.
Also a concern about the road connecting into the office park,
its proximity to the park land, as well as the traffic generated.
Mayor Close commented as follows: part of the requirement for being a
public official is making the best decision one can when the pressure
is on. There is an obligation on the part of public officials to
make decisions that are substantially fair, and then inform the
public as to the reasons for that decision.
Those reasons in this instance being - the applicants purchased the
land; they have said that they will follow the quadrant study; they
followed every recommendation that staff made; by the best estimates
available, this project will not strain the existing services
available - quite the contrary, it will bring water to a quadrant of

the Village that does not have water.
He indicated that he thought that it was a good project. When the
master plan process was begun, the participants indicated that one
does the best that one can and continue the development of the
municipality while the development process continues.
Ms. Maurer stated the reasons for her vote which would follows:
1. As regards the protected plant, life; when Ms. Jordan called the Ohio
Department of Natural Resources, they told her that the plant life,
if there would be any, would be further toward the river and would
be in the private sector of the creek; that it was most often found
in rocky gorge areas.
2. With regard to the two acre park area. In 1979 there was a green
space and park study done by Godwin-Bohm, in which they designated
certain areas within the Village, and at the ed of the Village,
that would be appropriate for designing landscaped entryways, and
the corner of Brand and Dublin Road was one of those areas.
3. In developing this area, the developers will be required to bring
the waterline from the library to the corner of Brand Road in order
to service the east portion of this development. A water pump will
also be required at Brand Road; that corner will be a good place to
put that water pump.
4. Traffic concerns. All of Muirfield will not be coming down Dublin
Road. There is a contract with the City of Columbus to develop the
O'Shaughnessey Dam (Glick Road) so that it will be easier to go
across, will be widened, etc., providing an ingress/egress from
northern Muirfield. Muirfield Drive should be completed within the
next couple of years, providing another access for Muirfield
residents to the southwest.
5. The McKitrick office park. The latest traffic Plan (not adopted,
shows five exits from the McKitrick Office Park) and it is not
likely that traffic from the office park would come through this
area.
6. The best thing about the new plan; that the park does not have
houses backing up to it. It has a road next to it, it is
accessible to the public, it provides a scenic view, as well as
providing a passive park for walking.
7. The quadrant study plan projects that this area would be a transition
area from 1.5 units per acre to 2.5 units per acre. The final plan
is 1.68 units per acre, making it within that range.
8. The Village, in fairness, cannot require this developer to do more
than the developer who developed Llewellyn Farms across the estate
lots in existence on Dublin Road further south on the east side.
The vote on the rezoning was unanimous in favor.
Ordinance No. 39-87 - Implementing Interim Development Controls in the
Northeast Quadrant of Dublin. Public Hearing.
Mrs. Diane Nicholls registered as a proponent.
There were no registering opponents.
Mrs. Nicholls said that she was in favor of this ordinance but that
she would like to see it encompass the northwest quadrant of the Village
as well.
She expressed concerns as regards the northwest quadrant in terms of the
number of parks, traffic density and flow, adequate water and
sewer, etc.
There will be a third reading of the Ordinance on Monday, May 4, 1987.

Ordinance No. 32-87 - Authorize Agreement to Provide Fire Hydrant
Maintenance Services. Third Reading.
Mr. Danny Johnson, Maintenance Superintendent, said that he felt that
the Washington Township Fire Department should maintain the hydrants
as opposed to contracting it out to private companies.
Mr. Bostic, Fire Chief, said that they would like to maintain the hydrants.
He commented that they would like to know that the hydrants work and
their locations.
Mr. Amorose expressed a concern regarding the cost difference between
the private companies versus the Washington Township Fire Department (a
price difference of $27 as opposed to $35 per hydrant).
Mr. Bostic will study the cost factor and report back to Council at the
next meeting.
Mr. Rozanski moved to table the ordinance until the May 4, 1987 meeting.
Mr. Amorose seconded the motion.
The vote was 5-0 in favor.
Ordinance No. 34-87 - Annexation of 7.105~ Acres in Washington Township
in Dublin. Second Reading.
There will be a third and final reading of the ordinance on Monday, May 4,
1987 at 7:30 P.M.
Ordinance No. 38-87 - Requiring Council Review and Approval of any Public
Utilities Built by any Political Subdivision. Second Reading.

Ordinance No. 41-87 - Accept Lowest/Best Bid for Vehicle Fleet Insurance.
Second Reading.
Mr. Sutphen moved to do away with the three time reading rule and treat
as an emergency.
Mr. Amorose seconded the motion.
The vote was 5-0 in favor of the motion.
The vote on the ordinance was unanimous in favor.
Other
Discussion Regarding Change of Name of Street in Muirfield.
Mr. Howard Adams reported that some time ago a street name in Muirfield
was changed, at the request of potential residents, from Balmohoy Court
to Muirfield Run.
The safety issue, Mr. Adams said, became a factor, specifically mentioning
the two streets in Muirfield, one being named Muirfield Drive and the
other Muirfield Place.
He also expressed a concern regarding the precedence that might be set.
Mr. Adams said that they had communicated with the owners of the three
lots (no houses have been built) and they have all agreed to re-name
the street St. Boswels Court.
The Law Director will prepare an ordinance prior to the next meeting of
Council.
Mr. Rozanski requested that written confirmation from the landowners be
on file.

Request of Council to Review Park Fee Ordinance - John Yeager
Mr. Yeager is the developer of The Woodlands subdivision on the east side
of the river; a single-family subdivision that has one acre minimum lots.
Mr. Yeager said that he was requesting that Council consider amending the
present park fee ordinance with respect to the net fee that is paid by
low density developers in terms of park fees.
Mr. Yeager said that he is paying approximately 36% more as a low density
developer.
He referred to Section 3.-1198.02(d) of the present Ordinance, under
which Council recognized the difference between individual lots and
PUD/Subdivision and limited the fee for individual lots to a maximum
of $500.00. Mr. Yeager also said that he felt that there is also a
difference between lower and higher density subdivisions and that the
fee structure should be modified accordingly.
There was no action taken on the request by Council.
Request by River's Edge Three to Amend Ordinance No. 19-86 (Adoption of
National Electrical Code)
Mr. William Root was present, representing River's Edge Three.
Mr. Root said that they were asking for relief from part of the
electrical code as amended and in effect on January 15, 1987. They
had planned a project and the project was financed with industrial
development bonds. The initial site work is complete; utilities are
to the site. They are starting work on the buildings and the amended
electrical code has a negative impact on the cost of the project, and
therefore they are requesting relief from its application in their case.
He noted that they feel that this has retroactive application and it is
a cost which they could not foresee and plan for at the budgeting stage.
Mr. Root said that the tenant cost is determined, the leases are all in
effect with tenant allowances in effect; all signed before January 1,
1987. It is owner occupied.
Mr. Rozanski said that the objection is running everything through
conduit instead of BX cable (a metal sleeved cable); that it was "overkill"
Mr. Ted Zombek, Electrical Inspector for Dublin, said that the reason
for the amendment is that Dublin is in a growth stage and that in 20
years Dublin will want to have a good electrical system in each building,
something that is easily changed, giving fire protection, etc.
He pointed out that Building C in River's Edge III is already roughed in
and they have complied with the ordinance.
Mayor Close did point out that the developer arranged their financing
several months before the ordinance was passed, based on the bids that
they had received.
It was pointed out that the buildings will not have sprinkler systems.
No motion was made on the request.
Comments from Staff
Mr. Olausen informed those present that the pre-construction meeting on
the Brand Road waterline had been held on this date. The contractor, he
said, intends to begin construction on the 29th of April and hopes to
have it completed by the end of May.

Council Roundtable Discusssion
Mr. Rozanski
1. Mr. Rozanksi thanked Mr. Johnson and his staff who recently completed
the inspection of over 1200 manholes. He noted that when checking
the manholes they noted a great influx of water; some of the manholes
are below flood grade and taking on a considerable amount of water.
Ms. Maurer
1. Smaller versions of the projects of the Ball State University students
will be copied, and the originals will be returned to the University.
2. If any Council members would be interested in attending a city inno-
vation conference in Denver from May 7-9 they should contact Ms.
Maurer.
Mr. Amorose
1. Mr. Amorose asked Mr. Olausen for additional information on the
Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Company lines going north from
Bright Road to just north of Summitview.
Mr. Olausen said that Columbus and Southern has an easement going
north to south where they currently have their transmission towers.
They are planning on taking one of the wires that is on the trans-
mission tower down and putting it on poles. Therefore, in addition
to the towers going north to south there will be approximately three
towers between each pole that will be supporting this line, carrying
it north/south. That is in order to get the line down to the ground
level where it will be put into service, apparently to provide better
electrical service. The wires will be 18 feet above the ground;
the poles would probably be another 5 to 6 feet above that.
Mr. Olausen said that he would ask that representatives of Columbus
and Southern Ohio Electric Company be present at the next meeting
of Council to explain the situation further.
Mr. Sutphen
1. Mr. Sutphen also expressed his thanks to the maintenance staff for
their work on the manholes.
2. He also thanked the maintenance staff for putting up the fence around
the old cemetery in Muirfield.
Mayor Close adjourned the meeting at 8:45 P.M.
