Comments from Citizens
Mr. Jack Chaisson.
Representing the Emergency Services Committee, requested an update on
progress made with regarding the November 20, 1990 meeting(s) before
the Franklin County Commissioners and the Delaware County Commissioners,
and the resulting mandamus action.
Mr. Campbell referred to a recent "Letter to the Editor" in a local news-
paper, and responded by saying that he wanted to make it abundantly clear
that the City has nothing to gain financially, land-wise, etc. by the
votes of Council members on this issue; that the total effort has been
an attempt to take the first steps in achieving unified fire and emergency
services in the City of Dublin.
Since the Law Director had to leave the meeting for a short time, Mayor
Rozanski suggested that further discussion on this issue be deferred until
the Law Director and City Manager were present.

Mr. Chaisson said to Mr. Campbell that the majority of Concord/Dublin
residents commend Dublin City Council's stand on the issue.
Ordinance No. 53-90 - Ordinance Providing for a Change of Zoning on a
51.387 Acre Tract Located on the West Side of Wilcox Road at the Inter-
section of Tuttle Road and Wilcox Road, South of Rings Road. Public
Hearing.
Mayor Rozanski announced that the Public Hearing would be rescheduled
for the Council meeting on December 17, 1990.
He noted that it was advertised as a Public Hearing in the newspapers, but
that the notices of the Public Hearing did not get mailed out to the
adjoining property owners.
Ordinance No. 107-90 - Ordinance Amending Certain Sections of the Compen-
sation Plan. (Ordinance No. 17-90). Second Reading.
Mrs. King said that in discussions about a year ago regarding the Compen-
sation Plan, that several Council members had expressed concern about the
fact that the bottom of the pay range is always raised as well as the
top of the range.
She further said that it was her understanding that an amendment would be
provided, responding to that expressed concern.
Mrs. King offered to work with the Director of Personnel to provide that
amendment, reflecting that change.
Mr. Harding said that he felt that what was prepared is consistent with the
City's past practice; that most communities usually do index both the
minimum and maximum of the pay ranges, adjustments being made due to
inflation.
Mayor Rozanski said that he agreed with Mrs. King, pointing out that
conceivably a clerical/secretarial person, for example, newly hired,
could be making a salary very close to a person who had worked for the
City for a year.
Mr. Harding said that that should not be; provided the Department/Division
Head provides the merit increase consistent with the performance of the
employee, then there really should not be a compression problem in the
bottom aspects of the pay range.
During the past year, Mr. Harding said, the average raise for a fully
effective performer, which is level three of a five level performance
structure, was about 7% to 8%; that very effective, level four, was
around 8% to 10%, and exceptional was around 10% to 12%.
Mr. CAmpbell wanted to emphasize some points that had been previously
made.
Mr. Campbell said that he had no trouble or concern with appropriate raises
for current personnel, based upon merit and inflation, etc., those factors
which need to be considered.
Mr. Campbell again said that he had no trouble with current employees
achieving raises; however, if all the brackets are bumped, then some of the
incentive is taken away for existing employees when new employees are hired
and come in at a salary range not much lower then an employee who has been
employed by the City for some time.
Ms. Maurer said that she felt that the City should meet the inflation
increase, both on a humanitarian basis, and due to the fact that the City
is trying to get first quality employees and not lose them to the private
sector or to other better paying government sectors.
Mr. Strip requested that Mr. Harding prepare for Council members, in
written form, a breakdown of how many staff members got 10% increases
last year, how many got 8% or 6%, or whatever.
Mr. Harding said that the 6% increase recommendation "across the board"
was because in the past the philosophical objective was to, since the
unionized personnel are to receive 6%, that the non-unionized personnel
should get a 6% increase, the objective being to be equitable.

Mr. Amorose also expressed a concern, saying that he felt that with the
total City benefit package offered that the true inflation rate to a
City employee is not necessarily 6.6%.
He also recommended taking into consideration economic conditions at the
present time.
Mr. Harding said that he would have an amendment read for the next meeting
of Council, basically adjusting the minimum of the salary structure.
There will be a third and final reading of the Ordinance at the Council
meeting on December 17, 1990.
Mrs. King also requested information regarding the percentages in each
different category of merit raise in the last year, so that members of
Council would have the inflation factor as well as the merit factor.
Ordinance No. 109-90 - Ordinance Authorizing the City Manager to Enter
Into a Contract to Purchase Park Land in the Northeast Quadrant. Second
Reading.
Ther will be a third reading of the Ordinance on December 17, 1990.
Mr. Smith and Mr. Hansley returned to the meeting.
Mr. Chaisson requested an update on the mandamus action which was passed
by Council on November 20, 1990.
Mr. Smith said that a writ of mandamus has been filed in the Ohio Supreme
Court against the Delaware County Commissioners to in fact do what the
City believes they are bound by law to do.
The Delaware County Commissioners have agreed to sign a motion to expedite
before the Ohio Supreme Court.
Mr. Smith said that the case is filed, they have waived service, they have
agreed to accept service, they have agreed to file the motion to expedite
so everything is moving on a "fast track".
Ordinance No. 122-90 - Ordinance to Accept the Lowest/Best Bid for Ditch
Rehabilitation on the East Side of S.R. 257 (Riverside Drive). First
Reading. (E).
Mr. Amorose introduced the Ordinance.
Mr. Willis announced that there are MBE requirements on this project
because the City is utilizing State Issue II funds.
After reviewing the bids, Mr. Willis said that staff would be recommending
that Council authorize the City Manager to enter into a contract with
the Righter Company at a cost of $132,335.00 for the ditch cleaning on
S.R. 257.
Mr. Willis said that the work will be entirely on the east side of
S.R. 257 from S.R. 161 north to the north Dublin corporation Line. The
work is to include ditch cleaning, as well as some culvert replacement
at the street intersections and some of the driveways through the area.
He also said that most of the area where the work will be done will remain
as an open ditch, and also noted that there is one area where, because of
slope constrictions and width restrictions, that the ditch had to be
enclosed for about 200 feet in order to provide a safe area.
Mr. Amorose said that he had some concerns about the ditch work that was
done on Bright Road where loose stone was used and has actually already
kicked away from the berm.
Mr. Willis said that the nature of the two roads is significantly different.
He said that S.R. 257 is a road that was constructed to some standard some
number of years ago; that Bright Road appears to have been a road that
seems to have grown up from a path to what it is today; that Bright Road
may never have had properly installed ditches along it.

It was noted that the ditch cleaning is a maintenance job and that the
whole purpose of it is to allow water to get to the outlets, the cross
streams and so forth and stay off of the pavement.
Mr. Willis said that the work can go ahead in the winter; that it can go
ahead in all but the wettest of weather, and that so long as the ground
is not frozen that the contractor will proceed as soon after the company
and the City enter into a contract.
Responding to a question from Mayor Rozanski, Mr. Willis said that for
this project there are two sources of funding - State Issue II funds
(approximately $79,000.00) being administered through the District 3
Integrating Committee through MORPC with the remainder coming from Dublin
funds.
Mr. Amorose moved to waive the three time reading rule and treat as an
emergency.
Ms. Maurer seconded the motion.
Mrs. King and Mr. Campbell questioned the true emergency nature of this
Ordinance, Mr. Campbell saying that he felt that perhaps it is a self-
induced emergency to some point.
It was noted that this was the second time the project had gone out for
bids.
Mr. Campbell said that he felt that Council needs to be critical to make
certain that Council is not passing self-induced emergencies, and that
if it is a true emergency, then there must be careful explanations as to
why it is being passed as an emergency measure.
Vote on the motion to waive the three time reading rule and treat as an
emergency.
Mr. Amorose, yes; Ms. Maurer, yes; Mayor Rozanski, yes; Mrs. King, no;
Mr. Sutphen, yes; Mr. Campbell, yes; Mr. Strip, yes.

Mr. Campbell, yes; Ms. Maurer, yes; Mr. Sut~_Iher, yes; Mrs. King, yes.
Ordinance No. 123-90 - Ordinance to Raise Speed Limit West of Wilcox Road
on Rings Road and all of Avery Road South of Valley Stream Drive. (E).
First Reading.
Mr. Sutphen introduced the Ordinance.
Mr. Hansley summarized, noting that when this land was annexed to Dublin,
the reading of the statute said that the speed limit had to be lowered
because it was within the corporate Limits of Dublin, and had to be
lowered to 35 MPH.
Subsequently, Mr. Willis found a statute that says that a City Council
can, after giving due regard to the circumstance, raise the speed limit.
Mr. Hansley said that staff's recommendation would be to raise the speed
limit to 45 MPH with the understanding that it can be lowered in the future
to 35 MPH as development occurs or if there are a number of accidents or
speeding problems.
Mr. Strip expressed a concern regarding the possible changes in speed
limits and a possible resulting confusion for a driver.
He also suggested that a sign be used or some similar posting, to
indicate to the driver that a speed limit has been revised.
Mr. Campbell had the following comments:
1. Concern regarding this Ordinance be treated as emergency legislation
without allowing residents an opportunity to voice their opinions.
2. Speed Limits in Ohio are prima facie evidence of something that
is unreasonable for the conditions, being the presumption of violating
the speed limit by going in exceds of conditions.
There will be a second reading of the Ordinance at the Council meeting on
Monday, December 17, 1990.

Mr. Hansley said that he felt that the complaints, if the Ordinance is
passed at this meeting, will be from nearby residentis who are glad that
the speed limit was lowered and that the City is aggressively enforcing
that lowered speed Limit.
Resolution No. 53-90 - Resolution Approving the Report of the Assessment
Equalization Board - Muirfield Drive Connection. (E). First Reading.
Ms. Maurer introduced the Resolution.

bids will be awarded shortly on this project.

Mr. Strip reported regarding a request from the Dublin Convention and
Visitors Bureau for funds, noting that the Bureau had requested
$44,000.00 in additional funds five to six months ago at which time
Council allocated approximately $21,000.00 of the requested funds. The
request was reinstated for some $22,000.00, and the Finance Committee took
that under advisement. He said that he suggested to the other members
of the Committee that Council allocate $5,000.00, provided that the
funds be earmarked solely for the printing of the brochure.
Mr. Amorose noted that the Convention and Visitors Bureau receives
approximately $125,000.00/year from the hotel/motel tax, and that they
should try to live within that budget.
Mr. Strip said that the Finance Committee had received 10 applications
for bed tax funds in 1991 thus far, and that there was not an application
from the Convention and Visitors Bureau.
It was requested that those applications received be forwarded to the
rest of the members of Council by the Clerk of Council.
Mr. Strip noted that this year the Convention and Visitors Bureau would
be receiving 25% of $550,000 to $600,000 which would put them in the
$135,000 range.
He also noted that by reading over some of the requests of the people
requesting monies from the hotel/motel tax have gotten a little aggressive
and ambitious in their requests.
Comments from Staff
Mr. Smith
1. Reported that he had received word that on the following morning at
8:30 A.M. there would be a hearing before the Honorable Judge Frank
Reda with respect to the recent 733 acre annexation, seeking a
temporary restraining order.
2. Suggested that Council consider appointing a Charter Revision
Committee in 1991, noting that John Gotherman has suggested that
normally after a Charter has been in place for three, four or five
years that said Charter should be reviewed to see if any changes
should be made.
Ms. Maurer suggested that if a Charter Revision Committee is
appointed, that the City provide them with a budget and hire
Mr. Gotherman to advise the committee.
Mrs. Metz
1. Reported that the City received an A-1 rating from Moody's.
2. Said that Prudential-Bache was the low bidder on both the Series A
and B bonds at an interest rate of 6.787 which is an excellent rate
and that it actually translates more to between a AA and a AAA
rating.
Reported that a recent letter indicating the typical rate would be
for an Al rating for a 20 year issue, that the normal rate would be
7.08.
Ms. Jordan
1. AL1 the seats have been filled on the Mayor's Task Force on Child
Care, and the first meeting will be on January 15, 1991.
Chief Ferrell
1. Reported that the Council Public Safety Committee had met recently
for an update on the progress of the Dublin Justice Center and that
everything is moving on schedule.

Council Roundtable Discussion
Mrs. King
1. Asked when Avery Road will be open to two way traffic on four lanes.
Mr. Willis reported that the construction on Avery Road is nearing
completion; that the northbound lanes could be opened except for
one "holdup", that being the operation of the two signals that
are being installed at the present time.
Noted that staff has been working with the electric company to bring
the power to the signals, but have not been able to provide the City
with a definite date.
Said he did not feel comfortable in opening Avery Road to four lanes
of traffic until the signals are in operation.
With regard to the possibility of posting a policeman at the corner
during peak hours, Mr. Foegler noted that a concern of the police
would be the width of the road and how early in the evening it is
getting dark, which results in a dangerous situation to try to control
manually.
Mr. Foegler said that in his conversations with the electric company,
that the electric company has offered to get quick authorization to
get above ground electric for the temporary signalization of the
intersection.
He did indicate that staff's concern was that if above ground service
was put in that underground lines would never materialize.
2. Noted that she felt that there needs to be a light at the intersection
of Bright Road and S.R. 257
3. Stated that at the scene of a recent traffic accident, at night, she
had noticed that a police officer directing traffic could not be
seen very easily as he was not wearing an illuminating vest.
Chief Ferrell said that he had been made aware of the situation and
appropriate steps had been taken.
4. Announced that the second recycling center at the Municipal Service
Complex would be open at 9:00 to 12:00 noon on Saturday, December
15, 1990.
Mr. Amorose
1. Commented on some possible confusion regarding the Agreement of
Intent between the City of Dublin and Ashland Chemical Company
regarding improvements along the Blazer Parkway Boulevard.
Said that the that the improvements had been completed except for
the landscaping.
Reported that City Staff feels that there was no intent to do any
landscaping as part of the imrpovement of Blazer Parkway.
In going back through various written records Mr. Amrose said that
in the 1985 agreement landscaping was mentioned (Exhibit A) which
says that the improvement includes the building of Blazer Parkway
to the width of 36' and the installation of curb and gutters,
lighting, walkways, and the extension of the existing water main
to be installed past part of the project. "Also mounding and land-
scaping of the street to improve the overall safety and appearance."
Wondered if it had been the intent of Council and the City, as part
of the inducement agreement and the documentation that there is a
street tree planting program.
Mr. Amorose said that the issue is that Ashaland Chemical feels that
that was part of the overall agreement that, as part of the street
improvements, that they had intended for the entire street to be
landscaped in accordance with the drawings that were submitted early
on in the process and referred back to on several occasions (Jim
Bassett drawings).

It was noted that there was 1.3 million dollars budgeted for the
project, and that approximately $750,000 at present has been spent.
Mr. Hansley said that he has not been approached by Ashland Chemical
in reference to adding a large amount of additional landscaping;
that Mr. Amorose brought it to his attention for the first time at
a Public Service Committee meeting a couple of days ago.
Mr. Hansley noted that the Inducement Agreement went on to say that
the final design plan would be done by the City with put from
Ashland, and that they would get to see the final plans and have
input into that process. At the time, he said, Mr. Bassett was un-
available, and Mr. Olausen did do the design work for the City.
Those plans were presented to Ashland and no additional landscaping
was requested at that time.
The Bassett plan was not part of the Inducement Agreement that was
given to Council.
Mr. Hansley noted that the City had agreed to restore the right-of-way
to the same way that it was before; that Ashland could hire the work
to be done and the City would pay the bill for the restoration, not
for additional Landscaping.
Following additional discussion, Mr. Strip asked that the same
information and documentation be made available to all members of
Council so that an informed and intelligent decision can be made
regarding the issue.
2. Commended the Code Enforcement staff members, noting that the staff
was doing a good job in not an easy situation.
Ms. Maurer
1. Will not be at the next Council meeting, but will be at a training
meeting in Washington.
2. Wished all a Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukkah.
3. Need to meet to make the appointments to the boards, commissions and
committees for 1991, as well as meet to evaluate the two employees
for whom Council is responsible.
4. Announced a meeting of the Development Procedures Committee on
Wednesday, December 12, 1990 at 5:00 P.M.
Would like to know when and what the next step in the Capital Improve-
ment Projects process will be.
Mr. Foegler said that at the request of the Land Use Committee, that
the summary of all the projects in the Capital Improvement Program
as had been prepared by staff had been distributed to members of
Council.
Staff, he said, would request that Council members review that List
to determine whether or not they believe some other project(s) should
be added.
Mrs. Metz is preparing the financial report to go along with staff's
recommendations.
Mr. Foegler said that staff would like members of Council consider
the staff's recommendations for the five year Capital Improvement
Program, and that then Council would schedule a Public Hearing to
review the recommended program and solicit input from the public.
Hopefully, he said that Public Hearing would be held in the
early part of January.
Input will also be solicited from the Planning Commission members.
The time frame would indicate that the Five Year Capital Improvement
Program would be brought before Council for final adopting in late
January.
Ms. Maurer said that she felt that there should be some type of rating
process that members of Council can apply some time before the
Public Hearing.

Mr. Foegler said that Council members will have prioritization with
the recommended program; that staff will indicate those things,
reasons, etc. which were used to prioritize the projects.
5. Noted that the newspaper had reported the fact that all members of
Council had attended the National League of Cities Congress of Cities
Conference in Houston the preceding week.
She said that she felt that each member of Council had learned many
interesting and stimulating things from seminars as well as from
Council members from municipalities around the United States.
Mr. Hansley noted that several major programs that the Dublin City
Council has recently undertaken have come from ideas presented at
past meetings, such as goal setting, police accreditation, and
hotel/motel bed tax.
Mr. Strip
1. On behalf of Council offered congratulations to Nathan Urban on his
recent selection as a Rhodes Scholar.
2. Noted that there seems to be confusion regarding the bridge situation
and that accurate information needs to get accurate information out
to the public regarding proposed location, timetable, etc.
Mr. Foegler reported that staff did update the Land Use Planning
Committee on the status of the Northeast Quadrant Area Plan,
specifically the Bright Road area portion of that plan.
He also noted that there have been some informal meetings with the
residents' association in that area.
Mr. Foegler said that staff has prepared a draft of that plan and
hopefully will have a draft of the Bright Road area study to Council
within a week to ten days.
He said that public meetings will be scheduled for input from
interested residents with staff being available to respond to
questions from those residents.
Mr. Strip suggested that appropriate civic associations, neighborhood
associations be placed on a mailing list so that they are notified
of any meetings.
Mayor Rozanski
1. Said that it would be helpful to him if Council members could get an
inventory of all vehicles owned by the City such as the age of the
vehicle, mileage, what department they are used in, etc.
2. Asked Mr. Willis about the striping of Dublin Road from downtown to
Frantz Road; who did it, why was a double yellow line painted down
the entire length of the road, etc.
Mr. Willis said that he would report back regarding the above.
2. Wondered why at Avery Road and Perimeter Drive a span wire was used
for the signalization rather than an arm installation.
Suggested that perhaps Council might consider legislation that would
require that any signalization in the City be massed arm installations
rather than the span wire type across the road.
Mrs. King moved to adjourn to Executive Session at 9:35 P.M. for the
purpose of discussing personnel matters.
Mr. Strip seconded the motion.
