Second Reading
Prior Business:
The Street-scape update was held today at 1:00 PM and reviewed the concerns from the public hearing. Mainly the parking on Front Street, the ADA parking, placements of fire hydrants and the storm sewers. The Front Street parking issue is possibly changing the design to having parking places on the North side by the post office. Jeremy explained that by ODOT regulations we are in compliance by not having ADA parking on the street and it could just create a liability issue for the village. Jeremy reviewed with Mike Judson the placement of the 2 hydrants on the north part of the village. Discussed the storm sewers and the plan to allow homeowners to pump to them. The project is still set to go out for bid in July.
Culvert on CR 35 still waiting on the township. Linda will follow up with the Sheriff concerning serving 2nd notice to properties, and junk vehicles.
