PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE Mr. Reiner led the Pledge of Allegiance. SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS • Dublin Counseling Center and Dublin City Schools Julie Rinaldi, 7971 Riverside Drive, Executive Director, Dublin Counseling Center addressed Council, together with Dublin Schools Superintendent Todd Hoadley. Ms. Rinaldi stated that they are present tonight to thank Council for their support. Shortly after she assumed her duties in 2009, some requests to respond to community crisis incidents were received by the Counseling Center. They were not able to assist, as the Center did not have any staff trained in crisis response at that time. Thereafter, they approached Council regarding some special funding so that their staff could be trained in crisis response. There are now 13 staff members who are well trained in community crisis response and they have been utilizing these services on a regular basis for the past couple of years. They enjoy a strong partnership with Dublin City Schools, and work in tandem with them during a crisis situation at the school system. Superintendent Todd Hoadley, Dublin City Schools thanked Council for the funding provided for this training. The Schools often contact Dublin Counseling Center in crisis situations, and several have occurred this year, including the deaths of students from automobile accidents. This is very impactful on a large number of young adults and is a difficult and challenging situation. They are very appreciative of this specialized counseling partnership with the Dublin Counseling Center. The substance abuse and mental health specialized counseling is also very important, as the Schools do not have the specialized personnel in the quantity necessary to meet the need. Having these resources within the community is very valuable to the school system. On behalf of the Schools, he thanked City Council for their support. Vice Mayor Gerber thanked Ms. Rinaldi for all that the Counseling Center provides to the community. This is yet another example of their effective partnerships within the community. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of _ Dublin City Council Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK, INC., FORM NO 10148 Held May 5, 2014 Page 2 of 10 20 • Introduction of Police Chaplain Chief von Eckartsberg introduced Dave Schutter, who is the Senior Pastor at Northwest Presbyterian Church and who has volunteered to join the Chaplaincy Program at the Police Division. This program has been in place since 1990 at the City, and they are looking forward to having him join the group. Pastor Schutter is an experienced Police Chaplain who previously served with the Naperville, Illinois Police Department. He also served 12 years in the Army Reserves as a Chaplain and saw active duty in Afghanistan. Pastor Schutter thanked him for the introduction. As a minister in Dublin, he is invested in the welfare of the City in many different ways. As a Chaplain for the Police division, it will be a great opportunity to "serve those who serve." It is a privilege to do so. Mayor Gerber thanked him and welcomed him as a Police Chaplain. CITIZEN COMMENTS There were no citizen comments on items not on the agenda. CONSENT AGENDA (Items proposed for the Consent Agenda are acted upon by a single motion and vote of Council. However, upon request of a Council Member, any proposed Consent Agenda item may be removed from the Consent Agenda for further discussion /consideration under the regular order of business.) Mr. Lecklider requested a correction to the minutes of the April 28, 2014 meeting. On page 5 of 15, in discussion of Ordinance 22 -14 with respect to adult care facilities, his intent in his motion was to remove this item from the meeting agenda for that evening to allow Council more time for thoughtful consideration of the matter — not to discontinue any consideration of a dispersal ordinance. He requested that this intent be reflected in corrections to the minutes. Brief discussion followed. Mr. Lecklider added that this correction to the record would eliminate the necessity of this matter going back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. It was not his intent to start anew, with referral of a new ordinance to the Commission for their consideration. Ms. Grigsby clarified that her understanding of this correction is that Ordinance 22 -14 is postponed to the June 9 meeting — it was not withdrawn from any future consideration, but only from the April 28 agenda. Mr. Lecklider agreed. It was not his intent to take action on the ordinance, other than to remove it from that evening's agenda in order that Council could more thoroughly consider it. Council agreed to this correction of the record. Vice Mayor Gerber moved approval of the actions for the six items listed on the consent agenda, including the corrections to the minutes of the Council meeting of April 28. Mr. Reiner seconded the motion. Vote on the motion: Mr. Peterson; yes; Ms. Salay, yes; Mr. Lecklider, yes; Ms. Chinnici- Zuercher, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Vice Mayor Gerber, yes.

Homeowner Association membership as it pertains to the Woods of Indian Run. Staff has included information regarding the maintenance of the bioswale, as well as some description of that provided by the applicant. The estimate is that the cost to maintain the bioswale is $800 -1,000 annually that would be split among the four proposed lots. In addition, she provided a locator map for the proposed rezoning, which lies just north of Nature Drive. The Bremlee Estates residents would have access to their lots via the main entrance for the Woods of Indian Run at Coffman Road and Forest Run Drive. The Woods of Indian Run also has an entry feature at Coffman Road. The applicant's representative is present to respond to any further questions.

Jack Reynolds, Smith & Hale, 37 W. Broad Street,, representing the applicant stated that they are hopeful that all questions concerning the development of these four lots have been resolved. At the last hearing, he made the representation that they would ensure that the deed restrictions affecting these four lots would work in conjunction with those of the Woods of Indian Run. He has spoken to the attorney working on the deed restrictions, and they will be ready for the final plat review. He offered to respond to any questions, noting that Jeff Strung of EMH &T is present to respond to questions about the bioswale. There were no further questions or comments.

SECOND READING /PUBLIC HEARING - ORDINANCES Ordinance 24 -14 Amending Section 2 (Wage and Salary Structure /Administration), Paragraph A, of Ordinance No. 73 -06 ( "Compensation Plan for Non -Union Personnel ") for the Purpose of Incorporating Certain lob Classifications and Corresponding Pay Grades as Addressed in the 2014 Operating Budget.

Vote on the Ordinance: Vice Mayor Gerber, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Ms. Salay, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher, yes; Mr. Lecklider, yes. Ms. Grigsby asked for confirmation that the approval of the ordinance also includes waiving the competitive selection process for this position. Council concurred. Ordinance 26 -14 Authorizing the Appropriation of a 0.155 Acre, More or Less, Present Road Occupied Fee Simple Interest; a 0.045 Acre, More or Less, Permanent Slope, Grading And Drainage Easement; and a 0.037 Acre, More or Less, Temporary Easement from lack K. Beatley, for the Property Located at 6713 Glick Road for the Construction of a Multi -Use Path as Part of the Glick Road Phase 3 Project. Ms. Grigsby stated that the easements and right -of -way from this property are needed for the construction of a portion of the Glick Road Multi -Use Path. Discussions with the property owner have continued, but terms have not been agreed upon at this point. Staff therefore recommends approval of the legislation in order to continue the eminent domain process. Staff will continue to work with the property owner in the hope of coming to agreement at a future date. Vice Mayor Gerber invited public testimony. Kevin Humphreys, 332 West Sixth Avenue, Columbus, OH 43201 noted that he is present on behalf of Mr. Beatley. He stated that they learned of this issue about a year ago when the stakes were place on the property. They had some discussions with Ms. Grigsby and Ms. Ott at that time and met with them on site to show them various characteristic issues that were unique about Mr. Beatley's home that he has owned for 18 -19 years. The home is within 15 feet of the proposed path. In a more recent discussion with Mr. Hartmann, the City's legal counsel, they have talked of the City purchasing the entire property. When he spoke with Mr. Hartmann today, he indicated that alternatively, it was Mr. Beatley's intention to develop the property at some point. He is potentially considering this alternative. Another way to resolve with RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS MirLutes-of Dublin City Council Meeting DAYTON LEGAL. BLANK. INC FORM NO, 10148 Held May 5, 2014 Page 5 of 10 20 matter, which would be consistent with the highest and best use of the property, would be to submit a PUD or rezoning application to make accommodation for the multi -use path as well as make meaningful use of the property. The present function of the property would not fit with the proposed multi -use path as laid out by the City. He requested that Council consider giving them more time by tabling this matter. He deferred to Mr. Beatley to comment on the factual issues and constraints. He offered to respond to any questions. Mr. Reiner stated that in looking at the site, he is not certain what kind of PUD could be accommodated. It is possible to build another home on the site, but it is surrounded by residential zoning. The owner's expectations for the site may be too high. The City has been working to have the path completed due to the dangerous roadway and lack of pedestrian paths to accommodate those traveling to the Schools and the Columbus Zoo. The City is working to accelerate the conclusion of this project due to the safety issues. He asked what Mr. Beatley's expectations are for development of his property. Mr. Humphreys responded that there is an existing bikepath located immediately behind Mr. Beatley's property to the south, as well as a path across the street. A concern he would have is that Mr. Beatley's property is surrounded by Muirfield residents to the north and to the south, and those are the people who are using the existing path system. It appears that the City path is duplicative in view of the existing paths that serve the people. Mr. Reiner noted that the paths he refers to are private paths for use only by the Muirfield residents. They are not designed for public use and under the Muirfield Association liability insurance policy, the general public is not allowed to use these private paths. The path planned for Glick Road will be a public path to move people east to west across the entire distance of north Dublin. The path is now constructed on either side of Mr. Beatley's property. The issues are the safety considerations for people and their need to travel east and west in this portion of the City. That was the conclusion of a two -year study by a group of citizens (the Bicycle Advisory Task Force). It is important to complete this path for safety reasons. Mr. Humphreys stated that in this case, the present home on the property does not fit well with the planned route for the path. Vice Mayor Gerber stated that it is unlikely this matter can be resolved tonight. Mr. Lecklider stated that the City is in the process of installing a multi -use path along Brand Road. From the perspective of the homeowners, Council and City staff, the path along Brand Road is having as much impact on property owners as the Glick Road path would have on Mr. Beatley's property. In no instance did the City acquire anyone's entire property for the Brand Road path. The Glick Road multi -use path has a public purpose, and not just to serve those who live on adjacent streets. Personally, he lives in another area of Dublin, but as a cyclist, welcomes the opportunity to travel safely along Glick Road on this completed path. With respect to a rezoning, it is Mr. Beatley's right to file such a petition. However, to change from one property with one home to four separate properties with four homes needing ingress and egress onto Glick Road would be a high bar to clear, in his view. Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher asked what Mr. Humphreys' relationship is to Mr. Beatley. Mr. Humphreys responded that he is legal counsel to Mr. Beatley. Vice Mayor Gerber noted that Mr. Beatley has also signed in to speak, but he assumes he will not speak — as Mr. Humphreys has addressed Council on Mr. Beatley's behalf. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK, INC.. FORM NO. 10148 May 5, 2014 Page 6 of 10 Held 20 Mr. Humphreys commented that he was speaking to the meeting held with Mr. Hartmann today and procedural matters. Mr. Beatley can speak to the facts as it relates to the path and his property. Jack K. Beatley, 6713 Glick Road, Dublin stated that he has been at this address for 16 -17 years. During that period of time, as far as he is aware, no one has been killed on Glick Road. He has not witnessed a child riding to the zoo on the roadway. He finds those comments ridiculous. There is a very competent bikepath located directly behind his property and the City should use eminent domain to take that path, if the City believes one is needed, or should build one on the north side of Glick Road. To build a path 15 feet from his bedroom window and to cut down trees on Glick Road is ridiculous. This is an example of an engineer taking a ruler on a map and drawing a straight line instead of accommodating and making a correct engineering choice. No one wants to ride a bike along Glick Road, but people do like to ride along the woods by the creek. In addition, on Emerald Parkway, there are marked bike lanes on the street, but it is dangerous to ride in that area. Building a bikepath at this location near an existing house is wrong. He does not want the path near his house, and Council would not want the path near their houses. He noted that there are several agenda items relating to taking people's property to build these multi -use paths. Apparently, the input of the public does not mean anything. Vice Mayor Gerber responded that he has been invited to provide public testimony, and Council is listening. Mr. Beatley stated that in all the years he has lived in Dublin, he has never been invited to one meeting about the bikepath going through his front yard. There was no notice provided and one day, people put stakes in his yard. There was no communication from the City. Ms. Chinn ici-Zuercher responded that his attorney has indicated Mr. Beatley had meetings with Ms. Ott. Mr. Beatley responded that a meeting was held a year ago. The first he was aware of a path being planned was when he noticed the stakes in his yard. Prior to that, there was no contact or notice to him. Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher responded that he has lived in Dublin a long time and must have observed there are bikepaths throughout. It is Council's intention to have the ability for anyone to ride their bike or walk throughout the community. Generally, meetings are not scheduled with the residents until the property is staked and staff knows what easements are needed. Mr. Beatley stated that if the City pursues this current course, there will be three bikepaths on Glick Road, and one is more than adequate. Ms. Grigsby stated that staff is recommending that Council approve this ordinance tonight. Staff will continue to have discussions with the property owner regarding the project. Vice Mayor Gerber responded that this is the consistent message he has heard tonight about easements and property needed for the multi -use path — that even after legislation is approved for eminent domain, the City will continue to work toward a resolution with the property owner. Ms. Grigsby stated that is correct. Vote on the Ordinance: Mr. Lecklider, yes; Mr. Reiner, yes; Mr. Peterson, yes; Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher, yes; Ms. Salay, yes; Vice Mayor Gerber, yes.

Cramblit and Victoria L. Cramblit, for the Property Located at 355 South High Street for the Construction of a Multi -Use Path as Part of the Dublin Road South Phase 3 Project, and Declaring an Emergency. Ms. Grigsby stated that at this point, ongoing discussions are being held with the property owner. Staff believes that agreement has been reached for the appraised amount. There are a few minor modifications regarding the driveway and how the path is connected to the driveway. Staff is hopeful that the documents can be executed within the next week and that there will not be need to move forward with this process. This ordinance allows the execution of the documents and to have the closing on the property. There was no public testimony. Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher moved for emergency passage.

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting DAYTON LEGAL BLANK, INC, FORM NO 10148 Held recommends adoption of the ordinance. to Expand the Scope of Permissible Political Activity for City Employees. Mr. Lecklider introduced the ordinance. Mr. Wagner stated that the purpose of this ordinance is to update the current Code regarding political activity for City employees. It will permit employees to exercise more freely their First Amendment rights. As part of the collective bargaining negotiations, the need for these amendments became apparent, as the Code provisions were inconsistent with what had been negotiated in the Steelworkers and FOP bargaining agreements. The Code will now align with those agreements. Staff — May 5, 2014 Page 8 of 10 INTRODUCTION/ FIRST READING — ORDINANCES Ordinance 37 -14 Amending Section 33.67, Political Activity, of the Dublin Code of Ordinances Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher asked for clarification. Is this for all employees or for bargaining units only? Mr. Wagner responded that the amendments relate to all non - bargaining unit employees. The political activity rights of the bargaining unit employees are already negotiated in their contracts. There will be a second reading /public hearing at the May 19 Council meeting. Ordinance 38 -14 Authorizing the Provision of Certain Incentives to Everhart Financial Group Inc., dba Everhart Advisors to Induce it to Retain a Main Office and Associated Operations and Workforce within the City, and Authorizing the Execution of a Development and Real Estate Purchase Agreement. Mr. Lecklider introduced the ordinance. Mr. Garcia stated this is an amended agreement for Everhart Advisors. Staff briefed Council in February about Everhart's plans to build a new corporate headquarters in Dublin. Everhart subsequently decided upon an alternative site, and this new proposal details the real estate purchase agreement for the parcel identified for their new corporate headquarters and the economic development incentives related to that project. He offered to respond to questions. Ms. Chinnici - Zuercher noted she is pleased that they will have their corporate headquarters in Dublin. This is actually a better site than the one they had previously identified. Vice Mayor Gerber agreed. Mr. Gracia noted that the company representatives would be present at the next hearing. There will be a second reading /public hearing at the May 19 Council meeting. Ordinance 39 -14 Petitioning the Board of County Commissioners of Union County, Ohio for a Change of Township Lines of Jerome Township for that Portion which Now Lies within the Corporate Boundaries of the City of Dublin, and Declaring an Emergency. Ms. Salay introduced the ordinance. Ms. Readler stated that this is a follow -up to the annexation agreement that was approved earlier on tonight's agenda. This ordinance authorizes the Law Department to file a boundary adjustment petition with the Union County Commissioners for the property in Tartan Ridge that is currently within Jerome Township. The petition will move the territory from Jerome Township to Washington Township and allow Washington Township to provide fire and EMS RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of Dublin City Council _ Meeting LEGAL BLANK, INC., FORM NO. 10'46 May 5, 2014 Page 9 of 1 Held 20 service. Staff is recommending approval at the May 19 Council meeting. She offered to respond to questions. Vice Mayor Gerber noted that emergency action would be requested at the next reading. He asked for clarification. Ms. Readler responded that staff is requesting passage by emergency in order to have it effective upon passage versus 30 days after passage. Following passage by emergency, the petition can be filed immediately with the Commissioners. Jerome Township has already approved the annexation agreement, and Washington Township is scheduled to approve it shortly. There will be a second reading /public hearing at the May 19 Council meeting. Ms. Salay asked what would occur with any future annexation of the remaining portion of Jerome Township that lies in Dublin's service area. Ms. Readler responded that the agreement adopted tonight between the City, Washington Township and Jerome Township addresses the Tartan Ridge area that is currently within the City of Dublin /Jerome Township. Prospectively, there are a couple of options. Future annexations could be handled through the Regular annexation petition process that allows township boundary changes, or an annexation agreement could be done regarding future annexations in this area. In addition, there are still issues related to the provider of water and sewer service for these potential future annexations. STAFF COMMENTS Ms. Grigsby reported that on Monday, May 12, a Council workshop is scheduled to review the proposed Crawford Hoying development along both the east and west sides of the Scioto River in the Bridge Street District. At staff level, there has been discussion of the desire to have the session videotaped so that it would be available for public viewing and the potential to have the meeting live streamed — if Council desires. If the workshop were live streamed, the set -up would be in the format of a regular Council meeting, using the dais, because of the location of the cameras. She asked for Council feedback. Ms. Chinn ici-Zuercher responded that she is supportive of the live streaming, in view of the nature of this major project for Dublin. It would be helpful if residents can view it live versus watching a tape recording of the meeting. Ms. Salay added that from the perspective of the Planning and Zoning Commission, they are interested in having the opportunity to watch a videotaped meeting — in case they are not able to attend a workshop. In fact, they had asked her to bring this up tonight. COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORTS Ms. Salay, Council representative to the Planning & Zoning Commission reported: 1. The Commission indicated that they would make every effort to attend the future Bridge Street District workshops, but would welcome the opportunity to watch a videotape if they cannot attend. They all expressed great interest in the traffic presentation and asked that the presentation be given to the Commission as well. Ms. Newell was the only Commission member who was able to attend the workshop where it was presented, due to the short notice. Having the presentation at the Commission in the near future will be very helpful and information to them going forward. 2. The Commission reviewed the signage package for Ohio University campus, and the Commission asked that it be tabled to allow Ohio University to continue to work with staff on the package. The University was agreeable to this. RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS Minutes of _ Dublin City Council BLANK, INC., FORM NO. 10148 Held May 5, 2014 Meeting Page 10 of 10 20 3. They provided informal feedback to Mr. McDaniel and staff on the proposed Emerald 8 office building. It was a spirited discussion and involved many of the neighbors.

The CSAC members are to select the items they are interested in moving forward. The May meeting is their second meeting with the enlarged group. Vice Mayor Gerber, Chair, Administrative Committee stated that two items are pending for the Committee: 1) a review of the Charter update memo; and (2) interviews for the Personnel Board of Review. He will contact the other members of the Committee to determine available dates for these two meetings in the May /June timeframe.
