Mr. Smith said that after reviewing the action of the Planning and
Zoning Commission, that it his opinion that this matter should not be
heard this evening or at the next Council meeting but should go back
to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
The applicant, Mr. Duros, through Mr. Smith, had also requested that
the application go back to the Planning and Zoning Commission, allowing
him to go back and revise the plan.
Mr. Rozanski moved to refer the Ordinance back to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for further review and their recommendation.
Mr. Sutphen seconded the motion.
The vote was 6-0 in favor of the motion.
Ordinance No. 08-87 - Rezoning of 7.482 Acres on the West Side of
Riverside Drive South of Martin Road. Public Hearing.
Ms. Maurer repeated the Council Rules of Order as they apply to Public
Hearings.
Mr. Greg Lashutka registered as a proponent.
Mr. Ralph Hogle of 6332 Riverside Drive and Mrs. Marge Wiebe of 3410
Martin Road registered as opponents.
Mr. Bowman presented the following background information:
1. The subject site is an 7.4 acre site located between the Scioto
River and Riverside Drive. It extends both north and south of
Martin Road that is across Riverside Drive.
2. Included in the original application was a three acre lot on
Martin Road; that has since been deleted from the application.
3. The applicant is requesting that the land be rezoned to the Planned
Unit Development District classification.
4. The applicant proposes to construct six office buildings with a total
of 50,000 sq. ft. In this application four of the buildings are
within the Dublin corporate limits; buildings E and F are within
the City of Columbus corporate limits.
5. The applicant is pursuing a rezoning in Columbus for construction
of those two office buildings (E and F).
6. Mr. Bowman showed slides of the site.
7. Since the time of the concept plan, the applicant has been able to
purchase a developable portion outside of the floodway from the
City of Columbus.
8. The area containaed in the floodway will stay in the City of Columbus
and still be subject to a park lease by Dublin. With the develop-
ment of the Quarry Place site the Village would be granted access
to the property under that lease. The parking lot could also be
used by residents after office hours and on the weekends.
9. At the Planning Commission meeting staff took a little bit different
course. Staff expressed a concern that an office proposal might not
be the best in terms of expanding the availability of the park land
or the river site. The possibility of a more active use, a
restaurant perhaps, was suggested to the applicant.
Up to this point most of the discussions with regard to the
park site have been for passive use, a generally untouched and
natural area.
10. The developer did make it clear that his proposal must include
construction of a boat dock, a private facility for use by the
people in the office buildings.
11. The restaurant idea received mixed reviews from the Commission.
The applicant expressed a desire to proceed with the development
and the Commission did consider the development as it was proposed.

12. A traffic study was prepared and conducted on site. Four specific
traffic recommendations were made concerning the site; generally
they involved the re-striping of U.S. 33 across the bridge as well
as providing turn lanes on U.S. 33 next to Martin Road.
13. The office builings will be of cedar, stone, glass, and for the
most part owner occupied.
14. Even though staff was desirous of a little more development, a
development proposal that might generate more public use of this
river bank property, staff does believe that this office use is
appropriate and approvable.
15. The Planning Commission voted 5-0, which was unanimous at the
meeting, to recommend approval of the rezoning.
Ms. Jordan had the following comments:
1. The property along the river is owned by the City of Columbus. In
about the year 1981 Dublin signed a 99 year lease on the property,
which is roughly 8 acres.
2. It is a wet and swampy area. The area is quite unique; it stays
relatively green all year because the water is always running in
certain areas. Waterfowl and migratory birds use the area.
It was stated from the beginning that the position of the Parks and
Recreation Department would be that the area be maintained as a
antural preserve; not that people would be excluded but that it
would be paths and board walks, and that it would be used as an
educational, natural history kind of area.
3. Expressed a concern with regard to page 9, part d., in the text
which is as follows: "Parkland Clearance". The applicant will
cooperate with the Village of Dublin and City of Columbus in the
selective clearing and thinning of the parkland to provide parkland
users access and visual sightlines from the development buildings.
Developer will not remove trees larger than six (6) inches in
diameter. Any trees, natural growth or otherwise may be removed
at the discretion of the applicant if not less than six (6) inches
in diameter."
It was suggested that the word not in the above sentence would
appear to be a typographical error.
4. Said that she would like to see it stated that any proposed clearing
or any work that would be done in that area must first be approved
by the Village of Dublin and the City of Columbus. She went on
further to say that she would like to leave the choice up to the
Village of Dublin and the City of Columbus as to how the park
area would be developed rather than leave that decision up to the
developer.
It was pointed out that the Village had no agreement with the National
Waterwell Association with regard to their river frontage.
Mr. Greg Lashutka was present, representing the applicant, and had the
following comments:
1. Have worked on this project since late last year, including two
presentations before the Parks and Recreation Committee.
2. Noted that it is a park in name only; the Village has no access
to that area presently.
3. Would like to have visual access from the developed buildings which
hopefully will be owner occupied ultimately.
4. There are seven buildings total. In the second phase should the
restaurant come to fruition, would like one of the buildings to
have 15,000 square feet as opposed to 7,000 square feet.
5. Feel that the traffic proposal that has been proposed will increase
traffic no further than it is no on U.S. 33.

6. Noted that what they are trying to accomplish at this point is to
provide for an easement to the park land, a sewerline easement,
public parking, and also a turnaround in the area for school
buses.
7. Essentially the commitment made by Mr. Buss Ransom would be that
this site would be developed in a similar architectural manner as
his other project located off of Riverside Drive in the City of
Columbus.
8. Again stated that the applicant needs to have visual site from the
owner occupied offices to the river in order to be able to provide
this as a viable project for the developer. Should Council indicate
that this is not the case, he said that they would like to make it
clear that they would not go any further with the zoning.
9. Noted that amendatory language was submitted on this date which
alters that which appears in Parkland Clearance on page 9 of the
application.
Mr. Ralph Hogle of Riverside Drive who lives across from the site said
that he liked the idea of offices rather than apartments on the site.
He also said that he appreciates the type of project that Mr. Ransom does,
but did say, however, that his main concern was what would happen on the
two acres that the City of Columbus owns to the south of the site. Mr.
Hogle also said that he would not approve of a restaurant on the site
because of potential traffic problems.
Mrs. Wiebe of Martin Road expressed a grave concern with what she felt
was a great instability in the land, the ground being very unstable.
Mr. Lashutka said that they have submitted a zoning application to the
City of Columbus for the two acres and said that they felt that the
project can be coordinated between Columbus and Dublin .
Responding to questions from Mr. Smith, Mr. Lashutka said that they have
a contract on an option for the entire property; it has been before the
City of Columbus for a similar rezoning;they will have similar standards
on that two acres; if the Dublin zoning does not go through there have
been comments that the City of Columbus will be more then pleased to
continue; they will go ahead with some type of zoning; will appear before
the Columbus Development Commission in September and City Council there-
after.
It was noted by Mr. Lashutka that they have agreed to deed restrict.
He also commented that access to the two acres is only through the
Dublin Road site (not from Riverside Drive).
Mr. Sutphen expressed objections to clearing of the property without input
from the Village of Dublin Parks and Recreation Department in trying to
open up visual corridors for persons occupying the office buildings.
He also expressed a concern regarding the results of the traffic study,
noting that even on this particular day the traffic situation is far
from ideal.
The language of the amendment, Mr. Lashutka said, would be a new paragraph
as follows: "It is important to the Village of Dublin and applicant that
the parkland be utilized to its full potential as a passive park. The
Village of Dublin desires to improve parkland user access to the park and
river. The applicant desires to provide open visual sightlines to the
river from his development. Towards that end, applicant will improve
the parkland leased to the Village of Dublin by the City of Columbus
using the same guidelines accepted by the City of Columbus for The
Quarry on the Scioto dated June 14, 1985 and attached hereto as Exhibit
"A"."

Mr. Lashutka went on the say that Exhibit "A" has the following process
which incorporates the Forester for the City of Columbus. One, there
will be contact with the Forester. Two, that the applicant would then
selectively clear and there would be a scheduling of a meeting to mark
the trees for removal and trimming, and that the clearing contractor
would clear only the marked trees in his initial clearing process. If
additional clearing or "limbing up" is indicated, contact with the
Forester will be required for additional consultation. The land to be
cleared belongs to the City of Columbus, Division of Water, and is part
of the flood plain. Permanent improvements such as gazebos or paved
walkways are not permitted. A limited amount of landscaping, gravel
walkways, or non-permanent boardwalks may be allowable, but must be
approved by the Recreation and Parks Department.
In response to Mr. Smith, Mr. Lashutka said that they are willing to
provide the same input, to provide the same criteria that the City of
Columbus will accept.
With regard to the restaurant, Mr. Lashutka said that they would prefer
to have the restaurant idea abandoned and move ahead with the commercial
office. They have also concluded that the least amount of traffic burden
would be as a result of construction of office buildings.
Ms. Maurer mentioned that Mrs. Dixon who lives across the river from the
site, at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, spoke in opposition
to a restaurant because of noise, lights, etc.
Ms. Jordan said that there are alternatives for access to the site
possible if this plan would not go through - an agreement with National
Waterwell that by permission during the week and during working hours and
then on weekends, have agreed to allow the public use of the parking lot.
The possibility of access underneath the bridge, connecting to the
Kiwanis park project.
Ms. Jordan said that the real issue is whether the Village of Dublin and
the City of Columbus have the discretion on how this area will be
developed or whether the developer on the area just to the east of this
site will have the final say on how the park is developed.
Mr. Rozanski said that he did not feel that this would be an appropriate
site for a restaurant. He noted that he supported Ms. Jordan and her
ideas with regard to the trees and preservation of same.
Mr. Lashutka said that what they are asking for is an objective standard
(with regard to the trees, etc.) that the Village of Dublin, the City
of Columbus and the applicant can have some assurances; without those
assurances the marketability of those offices will be virtually nil.
Ms. Maurer siad that it appeared to her and it was her understanding
that the applicant is willing to have Columbus and Dublin have the
final approval of the process provided that there is a single process
and provided that the applicant agrees.
Mr. Lashutka responded "no". He went on to say that clearly in that
process there has to be a way that the owner occupants of the buildings
have a visual sight line.
Ms. Maurer said that if the project were to eliminate a number of the
dead trees, clear out brush, and clear out sight lines that one of
the things being done is eliminating the source of food for the birds
and waterfowl.
There was discussion of the definition of a "visual corridor".
Mr. Rozanski, as well as other Council members, said that their direction
to the applicant could be summarized in one word, and that word is
cooperation between the Dublin Parks and Recreation Department and the
builder.
Mr. Jankowski said that he agreed and that he felt that there should be

more definitive objective standards.
There was also mention of concerns with the "fate" of the other two
acres; that those two acres in Columbus should be required to have the
same density as the acres in Dublin; access for safety vehicles.

There will be a third reading of the Ordinance on August 17, 1987.
Ordinance No. 86-87 - Request for Storm Water Exemption - Donegal Cliffs,
Section 6. Second Reading.
Mrs. Nicholls mentioned that at the last meeting they had asked the
engineer about silt control.
Mr. Willis said that the outfall of the storm drainage is protected by
rocks, etc. of the water on its way to the river and that that tends to
lessen the erosion.
Silt control, he said, is a matter that can be handled during constructior,
something that the Village can cause the developer to include in his plans.
Mrs. Nicholls asked if there was a provision for this developer to have
retention basins for silt control during the construction phase.
Hr. Willis said that at this point "no".
Ms. Maurer said that she thought that the appropriate time to bring this
subject up is when Council has that construction plan from Planning and
Zoning in that phase. At that point the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the engineer can make the requirement in the text for that silt
control to be done (the final plan stage).
There will be a third and final reading of the Ordinance on August 17,
1987.

Request for Approval of Final Plat - Dublinshire Drive, 1100' Extension
to the West.
Mr. Bowman said that Dublinshire Drive is an east/west road stretching
from Earlington Parkway and will eventually hook up to Muirfield Drive.
Dublinshire is the road in front of the school/park site. The proposal
is for an 1100' extension of this roadway as it is currently under
construction. The only development proposal that has been suggested
to staff is a cluster site in The Woods portion in the Earlington sub-
division.
The Planning Commission recommended approval.
It will be a 60' right-of-way with a pavement width of 36 feet.
As the road is laid out it will require rezoning of the property to the
west of Earlington.

Ordinance No. 94-87 - Additional Discussion regarding the 12" line,
suggesting perhaps that it should be larger than the 12".
Mr. Hansley suggested that, in order to avoid having to re-bid the
project, that perhaps a special meeting could be called when members
of Council had more information. If, however, discussion and vote
at the August 17th Council meeting would not require a re-bid then
the Ordinance will be read for a second reading at the August 17, 1987
meeting of Dublin Village Council.
Request for Approval of Final Plat - Muirfield Phase 33, Parts 1 and 2
Mr. Bowman had the following comments:
1. The total development is on the north side of Glick Road and
contains approximately 114 acres.
2. This request is for parts 1 and 2 of that 114 acre development.
3. The final development plan as it was submitted to the Planning
Commission contains 207 lots; parts 1 and 2 consist of 81 acres
with 124 lots.
4. The open space, the roadway systems were as the Planning Commission
reviewed them and recommended approval.
5. Both staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval without
conditions.
Mr. Amorose said that he recalled that there was a condition with
regard to the bikeways.
With regard to the bike path, Mr. Bowman said that he thought that there
was concern whether the bike path should be on street or off street.
Mr. Howard Adams said that all conditions regarding the bike path will
be adhered to.
It was pointed out that since this area was in the original plan for
Muirfield that the site does not have to adhere to the green space
ordinance.
The average overall density is approximately 1.8 to the acre, that being
a fraction of what was originally planned for this particular site.
Mr. Sutphen asked Mr. Adams if there is any area on this site or
elsewhere in Muirfield that might be suitable for a fire station. He
pointed out that with the increase in growth that those persons interested
in fire protection are looking at the possibility of another station.
Mr. Sutphen requested that a representative from Muirfield get in touch
with Mr. Bowman within 60 days, addressing the situation.
Mr. Adams said that he has been communicating with Mr. Bowman and Chief
Bostic regarding same.
Mr. Rozanski moved to approve the request for approval of the final plat.
Mr. Amorose seconded the motion.
Mr. Halloran noted that he had not seen any provision for storm water
retention.
Mr. Adams said that there are two large retention areas in the area;
one is a lake that is going to be dug just north of the border of the
twin singles and that there is a large dry retention pond as part of
the 24 acres that is The Woods.
The vote on approval was unanimous in favor.
Designation of Nanette J. Prushing as Acting Manager
It was noted that the designation would authorize Ms. Prushing to exercise
all powers, duties and functions of the City Manager during his temporary
absence from the Village and/or during his temporary disability.

Mr. Sutphen moved to approve.

The vote was 6-0 in favor.
Comments from Manager, Mr. Hansley
Mr. Hansley referred to a memorandum received by Council members in their
packets regard a possible imposition of a new five dollar municipal
motor vehicle license fee. (H.B. 419).
He explained that in order for the fee to be collected by a municipality
beginning in January, 1988, an ordinance enacting the fee must be in
force by September 30, 1987 (by Ordinance).
The tax would be used for highway maintenance, bridge repair.
Council decided to take no action on this matter for 1988.
Comments from Staff
Mr. Paul Willis
Mr. Willis was recently approached by a consultant of R. D. Zande who
represents a client owning land on Riverside Drive north of 1-270.
There is a gravity sewer from 1-270 to the south.
The City of Columbus is building a force main along Riverside Drive
(along the west side) up to the zoo and that force main will service
the zoo.
The Village of Dublin has no possibility of connecting into that sewer.
The consultant approached the Village of Dublin and asked if the Village
would allow two or three property owners together to pay for installing
a new sewerline in the same trench as the one that is being put in by the
City of Columbus.
This would give the Village of Dublin a chance to install a sewerline
with the possibility of a payback agreement with those people who pay
for its installation.
It will be a force main and there would be two and perhaps as many as
three lift stations.
Mr. Amorose reported that the issue was discussed previously when the
zoo presented a proposal to the Village about coming through with that
8 inch force main.
The consensus of the people at the time, after several meetings, was
that they were agreeable to letting Columbus come through with the line
but not to allow Dublin residents to tap into the force main line.
The policy in the Village has been that Dublin wants to get away from
force main sewerlines; from pump stations; from lift stations, etc.
Dublin does not want to see a lot of spot zoning or higher density
zoning that a sewerline brings into an area until the entire area can be
served with a proper gravity sewer.
It was noted that it costs considerably more to put in a gravity sewer-
line as opposed to a force main line.
Mr. Bowman noted that there are a lot of questions raised by this issue.
There is a real tendency to support R-1 development in this quadrant.
R-1 development at the present time is not even possible or profitable
without a sewer system. Without a sewer system the County will permit
a subdivision to build five homes a year, and as a result the properties
will sit vacant.
Mr. Willis said that he felt that this was a relatively inexpensive way
for the Village to get a sewer to that area and be able to develop same.
He went on further to say that his only reservation with the concept
would be the time that must be adhered to.
Council would probably have to make a decision within a three week period.

Mr. Amorose said that once it is developed R-1 then Dublin can come in
with a force main if Dublin has to, but then at least the Village would
know how the area is going to develop.
Mr. Willis indicated another problem, noting that one cannot have a
sewerline and a waterline in the same general area, as well as the
problem that there is so little room on the west side that it is going
to be difficult to find a place to install a new sewerline down the
same side.
You want the lines side by side; not one on top of the other.
Mr. Willis noted that Dublin has an agreement with the City of Columbus
for the sewer on the east side of the river which allows Dublin to
empty a certain amount of flow into their sewer and it is estimated that
Dublin will reach the saturation point in 1991 or 1992 and by that time
the west branch sewer should be on line.
It was noted that two of the larger property owners in the "request"
area are Homewood and Complete General Construction Company.
The entire area is within the Village of Dublin.
Dr. J. Stoycheff, a resident, said that he felt that most of the citizens
would agree with Mr. Amorose and that they would fight the issue.
Mr. Willard Chambers said that he hope that representatives of the press
would examine and review the history of the last four years which has
allowed that sewer to be built in the only place that Dublin has to put
a waterline and a sewerline at some future time to service Dublin.
Ms. Maurer requested that the Engineer and Planning Staff provide Council
with additional pertinent information on the topic.
Mr. Hansley
1. Referred to a memorandum from Mr. Paul Willis, Engineer, regard
the street repair bid. There was one bid submitted and because of
an error in developing the plan there was a cost differential of
+$92,541.00. The Engineer recommended that the bid be rejected
and the project be re-bid.
2. Regarding City status Mr. Hansley said that staff will be taking
some action within the next several days, mentioning specifically
a contract for health services.
Mentioned a recently held meeting with persons on the county
auditor's staff as well as others as to what options the City of
Dublin would have as regards road improvement, fire levies, police
levies, etc.
He mentioned that there will be another meeting to discuss further
possible options as regards township status.
Council Roundtable Discussion
Mr. Rozanski
1. Mentioned the proposed noxious weed ordinance.
Also mentioned the "weed field" in the area that the State reworked
the bridge and widened S.R. 161 to just past Franklin Street.
Seems a shame that with all the money spent on the "bridge project"
that so little money was spent on reconditioning the ground around
it.

Also noted that the backfill between curbs and sidewalks is inadequate;
the backfill around the catch basins is inadequate, etc.
Mentioned that he would like to see Dublin approach the contractor
or the State on improving the situation.
2. There is still a sidewalk on the bridge that goes nowhere; the
State has been very lax in helping to solve the problem.
Mr. Hansley reported that the Engineer has been examining options
as regards the sidewalk - under the roadway, over the roadway, etc.
Mr. Willis suggested that probably the best option, even though a
very expensive one, would be the walkway overhead.
It was suggested that perhaps because of possible liability
problems that signs perhaps should be posted on the west end of
the birdge indicating that the sidewalk ends at the east end of
the bridge.
The matter will be researched further.
Mr. Amorose
1. Mentioned a thank you note from Mr. and Mrs. James Headlee regarding
arrangements made by the Village for the planting of trees on the
hillside between their property and S.R. 161.
2. Asked that the citizens of Dublin exercise greater care in reviewing
petitions and being aware of what they are signing before doing
same. He noted that several citizens had called him to say that
they had signed petitions without really understanding the issue(s)
and were saying that they "did not really mean to sign them".
Mr. Sutphen
1. He is working with the Police Department and the Manager on the
issue of licensing bicycles and the enforcing the licensing of
two wheel type bikes such as mopeds as well.
The Police Department is going to begin enforcing all terrain vehiclE
licensing to a greater degree, noting the great increase in the
number of bike paths within the Village.
Detective Sedlock is working on such an enforcement and licensing
procedure.
Ms. Maurer
1. A reception is being planned by the Dublin Chamber of Commerce,
Dublin Council and the Board of Education to give the leaders
of the community an opportunity to meet the new Superintendent
of Schools and the new Dublin Manager. The reception will be
held at Stouffer's Dublin Hotel on August 12, 1987.
2. There will be a meeting at 11:30 A.M. on August 12, 1987 in the
Council Chambers; a planning meeting to plan the part to celebrate
the new City status of Dublin. The tentative date that has been
selected for the celebration is September 17, 1987, and the event
will be held out of doors at the Metro Center.
3. Dublin Ireland is going to celebrate, in 1988, its one thousandth
year. Mary Margaret McLarnan of Dublin, Ohio has been designated
as a representative to the Dublin Millenium, which is an
organization in Dublin, Ireland that is coordinating the celebration.
Mrs. Midge Karrer said that she had gathered information regarding
Dublin, Ohio and had sent same to Dublin, Ireland.

4. Mentioned the announcement from the National League of Cities/
S. Mentioned the Ohio Municipal League's meeting in September.
6. Mr. Hansley has been asked to draft a proposal for a travel and
education policy for members of Council.
7. Mentioned a letter from the Director of the Open Shelter asking to
speak to members of the Dublin Village Council regarding the
possibility of Dublin's assistance helping to fund the Open Shelter.
Mr. Hansley said that he thought that the way to handle requests
such as that perhaps could be through the budgeting process.
He also mentioned the request form used by the City of Worthington
for such items.
The meeting was adjourned by the Vice-Mayor at 10:53 P.M.
