[0:04] It is 6 o'clock p.m. I call this meeting

[0:06] of the Miami Township Board of Trustees

[0:08] to order. Will you please rise and join

[0:10] me in the pledge of

[0:10] » Allegiance

[0:14] to the flag of the United States of

[0:17] America and to the

[0:20] stands nationy

[0:26] for all.

[0:30] Mr. President

[0:31] » Present.

[0:32] » Mr. Cult here.

[0:33] » Mr. Barry

[0:34] » Here. Chief Nielsson, you have the

[0:36] reading of casualties.

[0:37] » Yes, sir. I have one. Officer

[0:40] Christopher Dong Jr. with the Columbia

[0:43] Police Department in South Carolina. End

[0:45] of watch on August 29th.

[0:48] » Please join me in a moment of silence

[0:49] for this fallen first responder.

[1:01] Thank you. Next up is recognition of

[1:03] guests and presentations. Chief, I have

[1:05] a minor amendment to the agenda before

[1:06] you get started. We'd like to introduce

[1:08] McGomery County Juvenile Court Judge

[1:10] Nick Sane to the podium.

[1:21] » Good evening. Uh thank you for the

[1:23] opportunity to introduce myself to you.

[1:26] My name is uh I'm Judge Nicholas Sane,

[1:28] Montgomery County Juvenile Court Judge.

[1:30] And I've uh this is one of my stops uh

[1:33] that I've been making across McGomery

[1:35] County, introducing myself to councils

[1:38] and boards uh boards of education uh

[1:41] since I am recently uh to juvenile

[1:43] court. Uh little bit of background about

[1:46] myself. I graduated from the University

[1:48] of Dayton with my engineering degree

[1:50] before I went off to law school. After I

[1:52] came back from law school, I was a

[1:54] McGomery County prosecutor here doing

[1:56] criminal trial work. And then for the

[1:58] last 23 years, uh I've been a domestic

[2:01] relations court magistrate uh making

[2:03] important decisions for the families and

[2:05] children of McGomery County. Now that

[2:08] I'm in juvenile court, um I'm here

[2:10] because there are many partners and

[2:12] stakeholders in juvenile justice issues.

[2:14] uh your police department, your schools,

[2:17] um and obviously this board and the

[2:19] citizens that you represent. I I'm here

[2:22] because I want to listen. I want to hear

[2:24] people's concerns about juvenile justice

[2:26] issues. Uh I'm bringing fresh eyes to

[2:29] juvenile court. I want to hear about

[2:32] what the court is doing well and if the

[2:34] court uh needs improvement, I want to

[2:36] hear about that, too. Um hopefully

[2:39] having introduced myself uh we can have

[2:42] communications about shared uh juvenile

[2:44] justice concerns and then we can enhance

[2:47] our cooperation and make progress on

[2:50] those issues that are important to you.

[2:52] U this is obviously my first uh

[2:54] appearance before you but I certainly

[2:56] hope that it won't be my last and I look

[2:59] forward to future communications and

[3:01] collaborations with you and other

[3:03] members of the community. So thank you

[3:05] for the opportunity tonight. Thank you,

[3:06] judge. Thank you. The juvenile court

[3:08] does important work and I can

[3:10] conclusively say you're the first judge

[3:11] we've seen here in our in my tenure at

[3:13] least and we look forward to future

[3:15] conversations.

[3:16] » Thank you, sir. Much appreciated.

[3:18] » Chief Nielson, you have the next item on

[3:21] the agenda.

[3:30] Board and guests, it's an honor and a

[3:32] privilege to uh bring up Julie Feebig.

[3:34] So, I'm going to have you make your way

[3:35] up. It's a short way. I know cuz you're

[3:36] right here. But um so [clears throat]

[3:38] we're we're here to honor um and to

[3:41] swear in Julie Feebig. Julie's been with

[3:43] the township and serving the PD since

[3:46] two since 2007. Um she's she's been a

[3:49] very big part of the police department

[3:51] family. She's been a coach. She's been a

[3:53] mentor. She's been leading teams. She's

[3:56] she was just uh she just finished up a

[3:58] 10-year mark as a sergeant. So um we're

[4:01] happy to move to uh move her up through

[4:03] the ranks again. And um I think by by uh

[4:07] the by by the looks of the room and how

[4:10] how full the room is, the standing room

[4:13] uh only in the back, I think it's a

[4:14] testament to who she is as a person

[4:16] because we could talk about um what

[4:18] she's done with the shop uh with the

[4:20] shop with the hero program with the

[4:23] field training program. We could talk

[4:24] about lines on her resume and things

[4:26] like that which um are very are very

[4:28] important because we want to we want to

[4:31] talk about competency and we want our

[4:32] leaders which she is to have a lot of

[4:35] competency but what sets her apart and

[4:38] why we're here is because of her

[4:39] character. Um she's a great person.

[4:42] She's a great leader recently. She's

[4:44] she's a

[4:46] grandma and so we're just very happy to

[4:48] have her here and to have all of her

[4:49] family here to have her friends here. um

[4:52] some of the folks that she's uh worked

[4:53] with in the past are here as well. I

[4:56] think I think that's a testament to her

[4:58] again because if you worked with her and

[5:00] you were a training officer of hers

[5:02] almost 20 years ago, um it speaks volume

[5:05] to who she is. So, um I'm going to have

[5:08] Julie have your family come up and help

[5:09] us with the swearing in. Mr. Clingerman

[5:12] as well, too. There he is. Everybody's

[5:14] sneaking around on me tonight. So,

[5:28] Left hand Bible, right hand up. There

[5:30] you go.

[5:42] » State of Ohio.

[5:46] » The resolution of my

[5:53] I will say

[5:56] » Honestly.

[6:13] » [applause]

[6:36] » Family first. I'll jump in.

[7:37] That's it. That's all I have. You can

[7:39] sit down, Julie. I know you're chomping

[7:40] at the bit to not have all the eyes on

[7:41] you, but um thank you board for your

[7:43] time. Congratulations to to Julie. Thank

[7:46] you.

[7:46] » Thank you. We would love this much

[7:48] attendance for the rest of our meeting,

[7:49] but uh if anyone would like to be

[7:50] excused, we'll take a moment to let

[7:52] people exit.

[8:34] The next item on the agenda is the

[8:36] consent agenda. Matters on the consent

[8:38] agenda are considered to be routine and

[8:39] will be enacted by one motion and one

[8:41] vote of consent. There will be no

[8:43] separate discussion of those items. If a

[8:45] discussion is desired, that item will be

[8:46] removed from the consent agenda and is

[8:48] considered separately. I move we approve

[8:50] the consent agenda. Is there a second?

[8:52] » I'll second.

[8:53] » Any discussion?

[8:55] » Mr. F.

[8:56] » I.

[8:57] » Mr. C.

[8:57] » I.

[8:58] » Mr. Barry.

[8:59] » I. Moving on to new business. Resolution

[9:02] 104. Chief Nielsen.

[9:04] » Yes, board. Thank you. We've uh had a

[9:06] long uh standing practice and it's

[9:08] actually in uh both of the union

[9:09] contracts that when one of our sworn

[9:12] folks uh finally retires that they can

[9:14] purchase their uh uh used uh duty

[9:17] weapon. And that's what I have before

[9:19] you tonight. Scott Scott Miller worked

[9:22] with the department for uh just under 20

[9:24] years and he has uh finally retired. So,

[9:27] we're going to sell him his gun. So, um,

[9:30] fairly straightforward there, but I'd be

[9:31] happy to I'd be happy to answer any

[9:33] questions you may have about that one.

[9:34] » Any questions for the chief?

[9:36] » Mr. Carlson, you have resolutions 105,

[9:38] 106, and 107.

[9:40] » Yes. Good evening, board. Uh, first

[9:42] resolution for you as a uh, new

[9:45] housekeeping item uh, we are required to

[9:47] do per the McGomery County Auditor's

[9:48] Office. Uh, each year we need to

[9:51] reassess

[9:52] uh, all of our uh, nuisance abatement

[9:55] costs back onto individual properties

[9:57] tax roles. uh provided a chart each

[10:00] individual parcel, the tax year, and

[10:02] then the amount being assessed. So

[10:03] again, we'll be doing this each year u

[10:06] to send this to county auditor's office

[10:07] and place it on a tax lean for our

[10:09] nuisance properties. Do you have any

[10:11] questions on this one?

[10:14] » Great. Uh the next two resolutions are

[10:17] related to nuisance properties and uh

[10:20] the Miami Township Ciakqua neighborhood

[10:22] uh 6055 South Fifth Avenue and 6046th

[10:27] Avenue. Uh these are two homes that we

[10:29] have had on our radar for a little

[10:31] while. Uh one of them was a housefire

[10:33] property and the other is one that has

[10:35] just been abandoned uh and left to uh

[10:38] deteriorate over the years. Working with

[10:41] Montgomery County Land Bank, we are

[10:44] trying to find supportive funds to help

[10:46] potentially demolish these homes. But

[10:48] the first step in that is to declare

[10:49] them a nuisance. Uh once a nuisance is

[10:52] declared, the property owner will be

[10:53] given uh notice that they have 30 days

[10:56] to request a public hearing uh which

[10:58] they can try to defend that it is not a

[11:00] nuisance. In this case, they've both

[11:02] been declared nuisances by the Miami

[11:04] Valley Fire District. Uh neither have

[11:07] had utilities running for multiple years

[11:09] at this point, sort of open to the

[11:11] elements. Uh so certainly we uh give

[11:14] them the opportunity for a public

[11:15] hearing but uh if they do not request a

[11:18] public hearing then we can take the next

[11:20] abatement action steps. One of those

[11:22] would be potentially contracting with

[11:23] the land bank for demolition of these

[11:25] homes. Uh we've had really good success

[11:27] with the land bank uh in the past. Uh

[11:30] the one item that we would uh very

[11:32] carefully consider is as part of the

[11:34] land bank uh program after three years

[11:37] uh post demolition if the land does not

[11:40] sell it would revert back to Miami

[11:41] Township we then could take next steps

[11:44] to either auction it or do other things

[11:45] but it is something we potentially have

[11:47] to deal with. So uh again this is the

[11:50] first step to take the nuisance uh

[11:52] action declare them a nuisance and then

[11:54] we can work to determine next steps from

[11:56] there. Uh do you have any questions on

[11:57] either of these properties?

[12:00] Thank you.

[12:04] » Good evening, board. Yeah, resolution

[12:05] 108 is an appropriation amendment uh

[12:08] primarily for higher than expected

[12:10] medical and and property insurance uh

[12:13] premiums for the 2627 policy year. Um

[12:17] fuel costs are up for the police

[12:19] department and so we've projected for

[12:21] the to get them through the end of the

[12:22] year as well as some access security at

[12:25] both the police department, the

[12:26] administration building and in public

[12:28] works out on Wood Road

[12:41] » With the board. Please know that time

[12:43] has been set aside for the board to

[12:45] listen to you. Your comments are valued

[12:46] and will be taken into careful

[12:48] consideration. The board will not engage

[12:50] in dialogue at this time and

[12:51] presentations are limited to five

[12:52] minutes each. Is anyone wishing to come

[12:54] forward?

[12:55] » Mr. Gaffne may approach the podium.

[13:03] » President Posey and trustees. Good

[13:05] evening. My name is Tim Gaffne. I live

[13:08] at 1187 Mary Lane West in Miamiisburg.

[13:12] My wife Gan and I have lived in

[13:14] Miamiisburg for nearly 50 years. We have

[13:16] four children and a grandson who went

[13:19] through the Miamiisburg school system.

[13:21] Now Jean, my wife, chairs a citizens

[13:24] group that is supporting the upcoming

[13:26] Miamiisburg tax levy.

[13:30] [clears throat]

[13:31] She is speaking tonight at Miamiisburg

[13:33] City Council. So I'm here to speak on

[13:35] her behalf. I'm here because

[13:38] [clears throat] the school district

[13:39] includes the township as well as the

[13:41] city and the new tax levy will affect

[13:43] citizens across the district. This will

[13:46] be an income tax levy, but unlike city

[13:49] income tax, this one will apply to every

[13:52] taxpayer in the school district,

[13:54] including the township. The legal name

[13:56] of our group is citizens for quality

[13:59] education. We are essentially a

[14:01] continuation of the same committee that

[14:04] supported previous levies. Our slogan is

[14:08] save schools and our website is

[14:13] savebergschools.org.

[14:15] We are independent of the school

[14:17] district.

[14:19] I know many citizens have questions

[14:21] about why another tax levy is necessary.

[14:24] We've been asking questions ourselves at

[14:27] the district's state of the schools

[14:28] informational meetings. These meetings

[14:31] are open to the public and attended by

[14:33] the superintendent, treasurer, and other

[14:36] school officials. I encourage all

[14:39] citizens to attend at least one meeting

[14:42] and ask questions.

[14:44] Five more information meetings are

[14:46] scheduled.

[14:47] Three are in the morning. Thursday,

[14:50] September 3rd, Jane Chance Intermediate

[14:53] School at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, September

[14:57] 9th, at the Memorial Building at 10:00

[15:00] a.m. Wednesday, September 30th, Mound

[15:04] Intermediate at 9:30 a.m. Two meetings

[15:08] will be in the evening. Thursday,

[15:10] October 8th at the Memorial Building at

[15:13] 6 PM and Wednesday, October 28th at the

[15:17] Memorial Building at 6 PM. And I have a

[15:20] few cards I'll leave with you that have

[15:22] these dates and times on them.

[15:25] These meetings are a chance to bring

[15:27] your questions to the people who can

[15:28] answer them. More information is

[15:31] available on the new state of our

[15:33] schools page on the district's website.

[15:36] That website is miamsisburgc

[15:38] cityschools.org.

[15:41] There are a lot of financial details

[15:43] behind the need for a levy. But here are

[15:46] five talking points that I use to

[15:48] explain to people why it's important.

[15:52] One, the levy is an income tax levy, not

[15:54] a property tax levy. It does not tax

[15:57] social security income. Two, the school

[16:01] district has tightened its belt. It's

[16:04] cut 3.6 6 million during this school

[16:07] year already.

[16:09] Three, the levy is for a half percent,

[16:12] which is lower than other current school

[16:15] income tax levies in our area. Four,

[16:19] state funding for schools is at the same

[16:21] level as in 2019, while inflation has

[16:25] climbed 31% in the same time period.

[16:29] And yet five, the school district has

[16:32] not asked for new money since 2010.

[16:35] That's 16 years ago. Most school

[16:38] districts ask every three to five years.

[16:42] Of the 600 school districts in Ohio, 210

[16:46] have passed income tax levies. Now about

[16:49] our campaign committee. We have people

[16:52] working on marketing, communications,

[16:54] and fundraising, but we need help from

[16:56] as many community groups and individuals

[16:58] as possible. We will have a lovey

[17:01] campaign committee meeting open to

[17:03] anyone interested in volunteering or

[17:05] just learning more on Thursday,

[17:08] September 10th at 6:30 p.m. at the Miami

[17:12] Branch Library.

[17:14] You can also volunteer at the

[17:16] savebergschools.org or website.

[17:20] Danielle Keenley, a former school board

[17:23] member, is our committee trustee. We are

[17:26] working to set up electronic deposit for

[17:28] donations, but for now, checks to

[17:31] support the levy may be written to

[17:32] Citizens for Quality Education and

[17:35] mailed to 10892

[17:38] Blackberg Court, Miamiisburg 45342.

[17:43] Thank you.

[17:45] » Thank you for coming in. Anyone

[17:50] else wishing to come forward?

[17:53] Moving on to consideration of

[17:54] resolutions and motions. I move we adopt

[19:36] for zoning case number 452-22.

[19:39] Is there a second?

[19:40] » I'll second.

[19:50] the following will be the order in which

[19:51] the public hearing will proceed staff

[19:53] will give a report the applicant will

[19:55] have the opportunity to speak anyone in

[19:57] favor or opposed to this case will have

[19:58] an opportunity to speak and the board

[20:00] will then close the public hearing and

[20:02] make a final decision via resolution.

[20:04] The board will now hear a report from

[20:05] staff. Mr. Carlson, have all the legal

[20:08] requirements for this hearing been met

[20:09] and will you present your report at this

[20:11] time?

[20:12] » Thank you. Yes. Good evening board.

[20:14] Legal requirements for this case have

[20:15] been met. I do have a report as well as

[20:17] a recommendation from the township

[20:19] zoning commission. Uh tonight's final

[20:21] development plan case is for a new seven

[20:24] brew coffee restaurant within the Austin

[20:27] Crossing development ZC52-22.

[20:32] Uh the seven Brew is specifically

[20:34] located in the sort of southwest portion

[20:36] of the Austin Crossing development. Uh

[20:39] you can see sort of where the uh new

[20:42] road merges into where the existing

[20:44] Spring Pike frontage road is uh directly

[20:46] between uh the Austin Crossing apartment

[20:48] building and state route 741.

[20:52] Uh

[20:54] uh in general the applicant worked very

[20:56] well with our staff to ensure that all

[20:58] the standards of both township zoning

[21:00] resolution and specific Austin crossing

[21:01] plan development standards were met. uh

[21:03] we went through a couple iterations of

[21:04] the plan uh and came up with a a very

[21:07] creative solution to what is a very sort

[21:10] of practically difficult site. I'll flip

[21:12] through here a second so you can take a

[21:13] look at uh

[21:15] uh it's one of the site as the road sort

[21:17] of narrows down. Um so it is sort of a

[21:19] spatially limited site. Um so something

[21:21] small like a sevenrew uh certainly was a

[21:24] a creative solution to uh take most

[21:27] advantage of the land as we could and

[21:28] create a development that brings a lot

[21:30] of new amenities to the area. um where

[21:33] some of them do not exist. So,

[21:38] my clicker is slow today.

[21:41] I'll stay on this for now. So, the site

[21:43] plan, as you can see here, uh these

[21:45] seven brews have a very small footprint.

[21:47] I'm sure you've uh seen them around the

[21:49] community as they're uh certainly

[21:51] expanding as a business, but uh we're

[21:53] under 800 square feet uh total. 510 for

[21:57] the primary building, about another 280

[21:59] for the cooler itself. Uh as you can see

[22:02] uh the drive-thru parking lot uh takes

[22:04] up sort of the majority of this site. Uh

[22:07] the primary flow of traffic will be one

[22:10] direction. It'll enter on the north

[22:12] drive, flow to the south where it is a

[22:15] single direction exit point. There is a

[22:18] uh exit as well to the north but that is

[22:21] predominantly going to be for employees

[22:22] who are uh coming and going. There's not

[22:24] a walk up window or uh you know other uh

[22:27] sitdown area. So that is primarily for

[22:30] employees and the majority of traffic

[22:32] will be exiting from the south not uh

[22:34] two-way in the north although there will

[22:35] be some

[22:39] uh as I'm sure you recall from uh some

[22:41] of the previous final development plans

[22:42] within Austin Crossing but also just

[22:44] looking at the site uh there is

[22:45] significant grading on the site so there

[22:47] are retaining walls uh throughout the

[22:49] site as it sort of platforms up um I

[22:52] think we're in general working with the

[22:53] developer actually pretty excited about

[22:54] this would be a unique look from 741

[22:57] again sort of tiered development velment

[22:58] with nice retaining walls. They've

[23:00] picked a really nice material. Uh you

[23:02] can see here, but uh the entire frontage

[23:04] will be retaining wall. Chick-fil-A will

[23:06] be sort of another tier up. The

[23:07] development in the back will be another

[23:08] tier up. I think it'll be a really

[23:10] unique look from 741. But just wanted to

[23:13] remind the board that um this is sort of

[23:15] near 741 again on the 741 side, but

[23:18] it'll be teared up and pushed back a

[23:20] little bit. I think it'll look very

[23:22] nice.

[23:24] Uh here's the first iteration of the

[23:26] elevations. Um, I'm not going to hang on

[23:29] these for too long, but working with the

[23:31] applicant, working with the developer,

[23:32] we came up with a second set. Um, this

[23:36] uncolored to color, but uh, there are

[23:38] some additional details here, additional

[23:40] glass was added. Um, parapets on the top

[23:43] of the building to help screen some of

[23:44] the the roof mechanicals. Uh, introduced

[23:49] uh, some additional base treatments to

[23:51] help create new architectural interest.

[23:54] uh they eliminated a lot of the uh the

[23:56] neon blue striping that is sort of

[23:58] typical to their branding. They did

[23:59] allow it in one spot sort of on the 741

[24:02] side in one area to be recessed, but

[24:04] central to the site particularly near uh

[24:07] residences. They were able to remove

[24:09] that. So, uh we think it'll look good.

[24:11] Um they they brought some of their

[24:14] colors down a little bit, that blue to

[24:15] meet some of our earth tone materials,

[24:17] the gray and and earth tone. So, we

[24:19] think it turned into a very nice looking

[24:22] facade.

[24:24] Uh similarly the first iteration of

[24:26] landscaping um we felt that they could

[24:28] do a little bit more to bring in uh

[24:30] landscaping particularly central to the

[24:32] site but also frontage landscaping on

[24:34] sout 741 particularly with that

[24:36] retaining wall to help buffer that and

[24:38] soften that a little bit. So here's the

[24:40] second iteration. Uh they added a lot of

[24:43] landscaping. Uh we are very happy with

[24:45] the work they did to uh bring in

[24:47] screening trees to help with any

[24:49] potential headlights particularly

[24:50] adjacent to Austin Commons and Austin

[24:53] Springs Apartments. We think that'll

[24:54] help a lot with uh breaking up any kind

[24:57] of headlight

[24:58] impact on those residences, but again uh

[25:01] they worked really hard to bring in

[25:03] creative tree choices on 741. They're

[25:05] overhead power lines there. So these are

[25:07] smaller growing trees so they won't have

[25:09] to get topped uh but they'll continue to

[25:11] grow and create a really nice wall in

[25:12] that frontage. So, um, on top of the

[25:16] trees, lots of shrubs, lots of, uh,

[25:17] flowers, other things. I think it'll

[25:19] look like a really, uh, well-designed

[25:21] site.

[25:24] Uh, lighting, the original lighting

[25:26] plan. Um, we've tended to see, uh,

[25:30] lighting under certain canopies that

[25:31] have exceeded the, uh, maximum lighting

[25:34] required under our township zoning

[25:35] resolution, but working with SevenBrew,

[25:37] they were able to bring that back down.

[25:38] Uh we were really very concerned about

[25:40] this site again directly adjacent to

[25:42] both residences and 741. We wanted to

[25:44] ensure that this wasn't uh just a beacon

[25:46] of light. So they were able to pull the

[25:48] brightness down. They've met our zoning

[25:49] resolution. Um they've meet all of our

[25:52] temperature standards as well. So again,

[25:54] very happy with the work they did on the

[25:56] lighting plan.

[25:58] Uh so zoning commission did recommend

[26:00] approval in a five to zero vote. Uh

[26:02] there were two stipulations. These are

[26:04] sort of general housekeeping items

[26:05] across the Austin Crossing development.

[26:07] There are a lot of uh steps in the

[26:09] development process uh applications that

[26:11] are hinging on other applications. So

[26:13] these are again more housekeeping rather

[26:15] than uh any particular fault or or

[26:18] requirement for this development to

[26:20] change. But uh all final approvals of

[26:22] the seven brewer dependent upon the

[26:24] approval of the roadway. So any trickle

[26:26] down effects that would change would

[26:27] have to affect this site as well. And

[26:29] then second approved storm water letters

[26:31] from the county engineer uh must be

[26:33] submitted before a zoning certificate is

[26:36] issued.

[26:37] Are there any questions at this time?

[26:39] » Any questions from Mr. Carson?

[26:42] » Thank you for your report.
