Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Hilliard public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Road, culvert, and intersection projects
The city has never systematically inspected culverts smaller than 10 feet, and some could pose real risks. A new $150,000 contract will inventory, map, and assess them so problems get fixed before roads fail.
Pedestrian/bicycle mobility and safety program
The city landed $1.2 million in ODOT construction funding to replace a narrow four-foot sidewalk over I-270 with a real shared-use path, with construction targeted for spring 2028.
Cemetery Road corridor growth
Negotiations with the Wendy's and Mill Run owners have stalled, so Council approved the formal step that allows eminent domain if deals aren't signed by June 1.
