Green Council mulls $19.7 million in bond ordinances for roads, Southwood Drive extension
The Green City Council is weighing a package of bond ordinances totaling $19.7 million for street improvements, a Southwood Drive extension, and refinancing existing debt, according to agendas from recent meetings. No final votes have been taken, as minutes were not yet published.
Bonds would refinance debt, fund roads
During June 23 committee meetings, council members received proposals for $12.865 million in general obligation bond refunding, $3.9 million for various street improvements, and $1.5 million and $1.4 million for phases I and II of the Southwood Drive extension. The full council agenda that evening listed the same items for consideration, along with a potential contract award to Kunkle & Sons for 2026 concrete repairs.
No dollar amounts, dates, or vote tallies beyond the bond figures were available because official minutes have not been released.
Charter amendments also on council’s plate
The June 23 council agenda included multiple proposed Charter amendments that would update language describing the city’s form of government, meeting notifications, and official publication methods. The same meeting also featured an amended policing contract with the Summit County Sheriff’s Office to add Flock safety cameras. No action has been reported.
Stoney Creek Estates Phase V under review
The planning and economic development committee reviewed a final plat and performance bond for Stoney Creek Estates Phase V, a new residential subdivision plat. Additionally, a municipal economic development grant agreement with Hoover Kacyon LLC was discussed. A public hearing has been scheduled for July 28 on proposed planning code changes related to drive-through bypass lanes.
Design Review Board hears Friendly Express gas station plan
On July 1, the Design Review Board examined a site plan, elevations, and landscape plans for a proposed Friendly Express gas station at 4053 S. Main Street. No decision was immediately available.
Coming up
The Board of Zoning Appeals meets July 16 to consider two variance requests: a six-foot front-yard fence at 2424 Lyndon Dr. and a side-yard accessory structure at 980 E. Nimisila Rd. Both cases require evaluation against the city’s planning and development code.
