Site Review of Addition
Brian Doll of Cincinnati United Contractors presented plans to build three additions to the existing building, reconfigure the parking lot to add 9 additional spaces, extend dock concrete to facilitate traffic, and transplant existing trees.
Kathy Farro reported that the plan conforms to zoning code. Ralph Terbrueggen noted that some of the trees may die as a result of transplanting, and James Dobroszsi noted that the planned siding is a different material from the existing structure but consistent paint color will help it blend in.
John Richey moved to approve the plan as submitted with an addendum to replace any trees damaged by the transplanting. Mark Ferguson seconded, and the motion passed 4-0.
2) Review Greg Dale service proposal for assistance with S. Reading Rd. Zone Study
By consensus, the EPC endorsed the contract proposal with spending up to $10K.
3) AeroHub project update. Summary and review of OPUS Development Services Agreement. Review Greg Dale service proposal for assistance with PUD review.
The Village will need to create a PUD and modify Zoning Code in concert with the OPUS Development Services Agreement. The Village has also begun collaborating with adjacent communities to plan for potential hotels, restaurants, commercial businesses and residential developments. David Elmer shared a contract proposal to engage Greg Dale in support of this work.
By consensus, the EPC endorsed the contract proposal with spending up to $10K.
