Top issues during term (12)(Development)
Flex Employment Development on Anson Drive
The applicant has significant money invested and faces a closing deadline on the land this week, but no public dollar impact was identified.
Circle K gas station at Roberts and Alton Darby
A gas station at a busy corner captures sales tax in Hilliard instead of Columbus, though the exact revenue isn't yet known.
Hilliard Housing Study
No direct cost yet — but implementing the strategies (like home repair grants and pre-approved plans) will carry future price tags.
Hill Farm II West Final Plats
Five mills per residential unit assessed through the community authority.
68-acre Hayden Run Road annexation moves forward
Not stated; annexation would bring the property onto city water and sewer service.
Old Chase Bank Site Redevelopment (4056 Main Street)
CRA incentives reduce the developer's taxes in exchange for investment; specific figures weren't detailed.
Clover Meadows development on Elliott Road
The developer pays market price for the land but gets no revenue from the 35 acres; the city's costs are indirect.
Davidson Road annexation of unincorporated island
Minimal — the city will extend standard municipal services to a small parcel.
Brown Township Annexations (Elliott Road and Walker Road)
Community development budget items including Amazon data center air testing
The city would bear the cost of a dispersion model if it agrees to fund it; no figure was given.
Hilliard City School District development agreement
Elliott Road Annexation (64.8 acres)
Would draw on about 22 of 100 sewer taps reserved for public uses.
