Comments from Citizens (Items not on the AGenda). 1. Ms. Gail Urbancic, president of the new Muirfield Village Civic Association introduced herself, and gave background information regarding the recently formed group. Ms. Urbancic also said that Mr. Jack Chaisson, Chairman of the Civic Action Committee, as well as its members will be attending City Council meetings and reporting back to the residents of Muirfield Village via a newsletter. She noted that they are looking forward to establishing a positive working relationship with City Council as well as the other boards, commissions and committees. 2. Mr. Randy Roth of 6987 Grandee Cliffs Drive mentioned several initiatives that the residents of the east side of Dublin would like City Council to address in the next several months, those being: 1) code enforcement; 2) location of approximately 75 to 80 acres of park land in the Northeast Quadrant; 3) land use issues which will initially be presented to the Council Land Use Committee; 4) inter- section improvements on Riverside Drive, mentioning specifically a previous request to paint a left hand turn lane to Martin Road off of Riverside Drive. Mr. Roth further invited members of Council to a Northeast Quadrant Civic Association meeting on Sunday, December 2, 1990.

FORM NO. 10148 Held November 19, 1990 19 Page Two "Dear Council Members: About a month ago we asked that you take the following actions: Immediately rescind your requests to Delaware and Franklin County Commissioners to change the Concord and Washington Township lines. After the November election, establish a Citizens' Committee to study and make recommendations on fire and emergency service in the Concord-Dublin area, including identification of all options and evaluation of all issues. If any solution proposed for implementation requires a change in township lines, submit it to the residents affected for a vote to approve or reject. As evidence by the signatures on the petitions, copies attached, residents want the right to vote on any boundary change. We hope that you can take the immediate action requested at your meeting November 19, 1990. Signed by Bill Uttley and David L. Wilt, Co- chairmen of the Committee Against the Boundary Change." Mr. Uttley noted that the petitions contained approximately 300 signatures, and said that of those approached 95% said that they would like to vote on the issue. 4. Mr. Tom Reese, representing Ms. F. Butterfield, spoke regarding a one acre wooded site located at 7136 Avery Road, that one acre being part of a family-owned 5 acre site. Mr. Reese referred to the City's Landscaping Code which says that all trees having a trunk diameter of 6" or greater shall be preserved. He noted that the family has since the 1940s been dependent on those trees as income and a heat source. Mr. Reese said that some of the neighbors want the trees cut down while others want them preserved, but that the family wants only the right to do with the woods as they desire. Mr. Amorose did note that the ordinance does state that if a tree becomes hazardous, potentially causing property damage or damage to individuals that the owner does have a right to remove those trees. Ms. Maurer wondered what would be the appropriate forum for this request - does a variance need to be granted; is it a matter for the Board of Zoning Appeals, etc.? Mr. Smith said that he would discuss the matter with staff and report back to Council at a later date. Ordinance No. 101-90 - Ordinance Amending Section 1184 of the Dublin Codified Ordinances - Special Permits. Third Reading. Following the last Council meeting, Ms. Kurtz said that several changes had been made in the ordinance, addressing the concerns of Council, as well as changes being made after staff met with representatives of the Building Industry Association and several member companies. Those changes being - exempting tents in residential areas that were accessories for private parties or bona fide special events from the requirement of a special permit. With regard to model homes; that lighting will be reviewed on a case by case basis and that lighting at model homes will not be permitted after ~:,00 P.M. Also, the permitted time for model homes; there will be a differentiation between model homes in new subdivisions and those in mature neighborhoods.

Ordinance No. 104-90 - Ordinance Authorizing the city Manager to Negotiate and Sign and Mutually Beneficial Agreement with Cellular One and to Approve the Use of Avery Park for a Cellular Telephone Cell Site. (E). Second-Reading. Ms. Kurtz noted that there was, in Council's packet, a letter from the attorney for Ameritech, supporting the location of the police antenna with the Cellular One telephone tower, that being on top of the water tower at Avery Park. She also reported that Cellular One has agreed to a deed restriction on the site and that the deed restriction says that Cellular One will not use the Manley Road site to put in a permanent cellular telephone tower if the site at Avery Park can be leased, and also that they will not sell the site on Manley Road to another cellular telephone or tower building corporation, although further stating that this is not to say that a lot to the north or a lot to the south cannot be used for a cellular telephone site, that area being in Concord Township. It was also reported that the Lease says that if Cellular One would choose to build another tower at a later date that the company is required to give the City a 90 day advance notice and that they will cooperate with the City in finding an alternative solution that might be better for the City of Dublin. With regard to a temporary tower, Ms. Kurtz said that it was her under- understanding that the company feels that they have a need to have a temporary site at Manley Road or at Avery Park, and that they would intend to put up a 100'mobile tower that would be placed at the Manley Road site until the lead time required for the fabrication of the platform and installation of same at the site at Avery Park is completed. Mr. Sutphen suggested putting the temporary tower at the Avery Park site as well. Mrs. King wondered whether or not the temporary tower is really a legitimate need, and also said that she had never accepted the concept that Cellular One is providing a service that is a matter of Life and death. Mr. Miller disagreed, noting that they often receive 9-1-1 calls and also said that the service in the area is not adequate, and that from both a business standpoint and from a licensing standpoint better service is needed in the area. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes Of Dublin City Council Meeting Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK CO. FORM NO. 10148 I' a November 19, 1990 Helu 19 Page Four As to suggestion to put the temporary tower at the Avery Park site, Mrs. King said she had reservations, the park being a place where people are invited every day to congregate and also noted that the park is zoned residential. Mrs. King noted that it is risky to buy land in a township or adjacent to a township because townships have so little authority to regulate zoning, especially a township that does not have a master plan. Mayor Rozanski also expressed a concern regarding the use of Avery Park as a temporary tower site. Mr. Miller pointed out that it will most likely be four to six months befor the construction of the permanent tower is completed. Ms. Urbancic, speaking for the Muirfield Village Civic Association, said that they would strongly urge members of Council to vote in favor of allowing a permanent structure to go on top of the water tower, as well as strongly urging that wording be placed in the lease that the Manley Road site will never be used for a permanent tower and that if the site be sold to anyone, that it cannot be used as a site for a tower of this nature. Ms. Urbancic also urged that also put in the lease would be a statement saying that if a temporary tower is erected on the Manley Road site that it be removed within a reasonable period of time after the permanent site is prepared (perhaps 15 or 30 days). Mr. Miller said that they had never been cited by the PUCO for not giving proper or adequate service, though he did say that they had received complaints about service in general that have come through the PUCO. With regard to security, Mr. Miller said that the temporary site will be located approximately 200 feet from the back line of the property which joints the Muirfield lots; that a temporary fence will be constructed around the temporary site, and that there will be a security guard on duty 24 hours a day. Ms. Maurer moved to waive the three time reading rule and treat as an emergency. Mr. Strip seconded the motion. Mr. Amorose requested that the landscape drawing be further reviewed by staff, saying he felt it quite inappropriate, suggesting that one variety of plant material be used rather then several varities. Mr. Miller said that they would plant whatever landscaping materials staff recommended. Vote on waiving the three time reading rule and treating as an emergency. Mr. CAmpbell, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mr. Amorose, yes; Mr. Sutphen, yes; Ms. Maurer, yes; Mr. Strip, yes; Mayor Rozanski, no. Should the ordinance be approved, Mr. Miller said that they would start putting up the temporary tower the following day and that it would be operational within 24 hours after that. Residents of Davington Drive expressed concerns, even as regards the temporary tower site on Manley Road, noting that children play in the area; that security is a real issue; that the area has been struck by lightning; that residents trying to sell their homes will be placed under a severe financial hardship. The residents urged the City to attempt some negotiations to regulate the temporary tower, and asked that Council realize that the residents in the area, even though on the boundaries of Dublin are still residents of Dublin who do have rights. Mr. Strip took exception to the latter remarks, noting that if it weren't for Council that there could possibly be a permanent tower site on Manley Road, as well as prohibiting, essentially, the sale of the site to another tower company.

FORM NO. 10148 Helms November 19, 1990 - _19 Page Five It was noted again that the City of Dublin does not control the land in the township, and Mayor Rozanski said that the Dublin City Council looks after the interests of all of its citizens equally. Mrs. King commented that through the hard work of the staff and the council that the residents in the area are being protected on a long term basis. Vote on the Ordinance - Mr. Campbell, yes; Mrs. King, yes; Mr. Amorose, yes; Mr. Sutphen, yes; Ms. Maurer, yes; Mr. Strip, yes; Mayor Rozanski, yes. Ordinance No. 107-90 - Ordinance Amending Certain Sections of the Compensa- tion Plan (Ord. 17-90). First Reading. Mr. Amorose introduced the Ordinance. Mrs. King wondered about the 6% adjustment in compensation for employees, noted that the compensation for employees of the Franklin County Solid Waste Authority will be 4%, that figure being determined after Looking at some of the financial guidelines used by other similar entities. Mr. Harding, referring to his Administrative Report, noted that the propose ranges in Section 4. are representative of a 6% adjustment at both minimum and maximum, that being based in part on the City's policy of adjusting pay ranges on an annual basis given market. conditions and, in part, on the City's philosophical objective of providing range adjustments for non-union personnel which are comparable to that agreed to for union personnel. The inflation rate for the first nine months of 1990, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics was 6.6%. He noted that in checking with other suburban communities that anticipated adjustments in pay were in the area of about 5%. Mr. Campbell said that he had a problem with the concept of across the board raising of the brackets (both low and high) suggesting perhaps that the lower end of the bracket not be raised, noting that it is possible for even an employee who may not be doing a good job gets a raise because the bracket goes up. Mr. Harding said that the underlying philosophy is that in doing it in this way that the range in its entirety stays competitive with the marketplace. Following a comment by Mayor Rozanski, Mr. Hansley said that in interview- ing potential police officers that they want to work in Dublin for a variety of reasons above pay and fringe benefits. Following discussion, Mayor Rozanski said that he thought that the concern expressed is the way in which the pay ranges are set up, and that auto- matically every year the minimum and maximum in each bracket are increased. Mr. Harding said that he felt that the 6% figure was appropriate, that being his recommendation, but that Council can reject, adopt or modify that recommendation. Responding to a question from Ms. Maurer, Mr. Harding said that the City does have a merit system in which individual employees are eligible for increases based on an evaluation of their performance but that it is not broken down into a certain percentage reflecting inflation and a certain percentage reflecting merit. Mr. Amorose said that he gets several calls per day about the fact that the needs and concerns of residents and businesses are not being responded to quickly enough. There will be a second reading of the Ordinance at the next Council meeting, that being December 10, 1990. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes Of Dublin City Council Meeting Meeting DAYT N LEGAL BLANK CO.

Ordinance No. 109-90 - Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Enter Into a Contract to Purchase Park Land in the Northeast Quadrant. First Reading. Mr. Amorose introduced the Ordinance. Mr. Jordan explained that this is the property that as part of the North- east Quadrant rezoning process was always designated as an active park area, property to be purchased by the City of Dublin. Mr. Amorose recalled that it is also part of a commitment that the City made several years ago when the water tower was built; that the City would incorporate that water tower into a park area, similar to Avery Park. Mr. Strip commented that he felt the price was advantageous, noting that the site is being purchased at a price substantially Less then market value of property in that area. Mrs. King noted that the City is, as well, keeping a pledge to the voters when they voted on the bond package for park land acquisition to acquire the property. Ms. Maurer said that she felt that the purchase of the land is inextricably linked to the recently passed approximately 500 acre rezoning in the area; that because of the increase in the number of people that will be living in the area and the intensity of the zoning, those issues being the main reason for the park. She also commented that without that zoning that the development of a park would not be as high on her capital improvements program.

Summarized how the form/system would work, making certain that each individual who has a complaint, comment, question or concern will have a response from a person on City staff, said response being a timely response with foLlowup, leading ultimately to a resolution of the complaint, question or concern. Ms. Maurer asked that the City Manager review the form and let Council know at the next Council Roundtable Discussion his reactions as well as reactions/responses from other members of Council. Mr. Hansley said that he felt it was a "great idea" and hopefully could be adopted by the first of the year. Mrs. King i. Noted that members of Council had not been receiving complete sets of the minutes of the Planning and Zoning Commission meetings. 2. Asked about the status of the B&N Executive Summary regarding the storm water in the sanitary sewer issue. Mr. Foegler reported that a draft has been submitted which he and Mr. Willis have reviewed and marked up. That draft was returned to B&N. Those changes are being incorporated into the report and a final version should be available to members of Council in December. 3. The Franklin County Solid Waste Authority is providing each community with a baseline of the amount of garbage that is produced; that infor- mation should be available to each community by mid-December. 4.
