Moving on to new business. First item is resolution 71-2026, a resolution to declare surplus property and authorize the discharge of said property. Mr. Schweiker.

yes good evening board public works has identified a few items which are no longer needed broken worn out beyond their useful life also we did have one vehicle that was involved in a crash and a total loss so per the the orc anytime that we're disposing of vehicles or equipment value we do need to do this surplus resolution a few other items on that list we're also just standard replacement procedures that we did allocate last year so I'm happy to go over this surplus resolution if you have any questions

Any questions?

Thank you, Mr. Schweiker. The next resolution is Resolution 72-2026. Resolution to approve an amendment to fiscal year 2026 appropriations for legal expenditures related to economic development. Mr. McCord.

Good evening, Board. Yes, Resolution 72 would amend the appropriation out of the TIF funds for some economic development activity that's being worked through with the legal group was not expected when we set the budget at the end of last year so happy to answer any questions either i or director carlson any questions

thank you moving on to public comments this is the portion of the meeting where you the residents of miami township are invited to share your thoughts with the board please know that this time has been set aside for the board to listen to you that your comments are valued and will be taken into careful consideration but the board will not engage in dialogue at this time presentations are limited to five minutes each is anyone wishing to come forward

okay mainly this is to go over what we've discussed before uh the um could you state your name and your address for us i'm so sorry thank you karen can idol 3716 waterbridge lane uh miami township Okay, as I said, you know, you've seen me here before. We started this, I think we first addressed this in March, and we're already in June, and I'm just wondering what kind of positive steps have been taken to get the noise issue with the Millipore Sigma property. I know I've been dealing with Alex, but we haven't heard anything recently, and, you know, again, our people are concerned because they're homeowners in that area so what that's what we need to have addressed if we can get any kind of a timeline if we know you know what steps have been taken and is this actually going to happen yeah so um i appreciate that and we'll have it addressed during the excuse me the officials comments we did have an update a couple meetings ago were you aware of that one regarding the issues not since the last meeting that i spoke with alex after the fact

And is that the meeting updated or was that? Go ahead.

Thank you, and yeah, thank you for coming in again and continuing to let us know this is ongoing. Of course, we very much appreciate that. If there was, I guess, a lack of expectation set, that's on me, I'll take that. I think in discussion with Mill Per Sigma, and I think we've communicated a little bit, but as of now, our department has not identified that the noise issue is a violation of our code. So I think that is an important thing I just want to be clear of. Millipore Sigma is working with us. They've hired now two engineering firms to come out and provide them quotes. They're comparing quotes to try to make sure that they really solve this issue and be good neighbors. But as far as really pushing them, I think, I just wanna be honest, we're being pretty careful because it is something that right now we are viewing it as something that Millipore is willing to do to help reduce the noise. But we do not, under our current code, have the ability to cite them or cause them to force to do it. So we are working with them to do it, and they're willing to do it. But I guess as far as forcing a timeline, right now I'm just trying to be very cautious about that. But again, they're willing to do it. They've hired engineering firms. The latest I've heard is they're waiting on a quote back from their second firm. uh something i will of course follow up on and make sure that we get updates and we get updates back to you guys but they're currently working through their permit process for their expansion my belief is that that will be done alongside their expansion process so we haven't issued that permit yet so we still have an opportunity to review some materials but Again, apologize for any lapse in communication. It was not intentional. You know, my point of view, it was, you know, we're working through the process with them, but I understand how that appears as a gap, so I apologize for that.

Okay. Okay, I guess there's another issue that we're not hearing tornado warnings. Oh, they're seeing with the issue of the noise that they can't it keeps them from hearing the tornado warnings. These are, like I said, some of the homeowners that are directly affected by this noise. You know, that's another issue, I guess part of that that can be considered. Again, it's something we take seriously, and we're hoping to get it resolved as soon as possible. I understand your viewpoint.

Well, that's great information, and I think good further justification to talk with Millipore that this is a serious issue that we need resolved. So I appreciate knowing that very much.

Okay. All right. Good.

All right.

Thank you. Thank you for coming in today.

Thank you.

Anyone else wishing to come forward for the public comment period?

Hello, my name is Linda Blevins. I live at 3900 Wedgefield Court. And I thank you so much for taking our this noise concern very seriously for the residents of Quail Creek. But I would like to say in the one meeting that we did attend when you indicated, when you sent out to measure the noise level, which was very close, like this, you also indicated that the equipment that you were using was old and possibly not as reliable or as accurate as it could be. So I didn't know if you had any other type of equipment, even if you could rent some type of quality equipment instead of something that's been sitting around and is a decade old to measure the noise level. Okay.

Thank you.

Yeah, plus it's also summertime, and people have their windows open, and all you hear is the roar from the facility next door. Thank you.

Turn my mic off. We're happy to come back and remeasure again to the equipment we have is sort of a standardized equipment that meets our code requirements for the minimum threshold for sound reading. I just want to, I guess, be more clear and indicate that that's not all we do. We're not sound reading professionals. So, of course, there could be some sound engineer who maybe comes out and get something different. But again, we will come reread again if it is past that point. That gives us a little more teeth, but we weren't quite there, but we'll continue communicating and get this resolved.

Thank you.

Moving on to consideration of resolutions and motions. I move we adopt Resolution 71-2026, a resolution to declare surplus property and authorize the discharge of said property. Is there a second?

I'll second.

Any discussion?

Mr. Posey?

Aye.

Mr. Cole?

Aye.

Mr. Barrett? Aye.

I move we adopt resolution 72-2026, a resolution to approve an amendment to fiscal year 2026 appropriations for legal expenditures related to economic development. Is there a second?

I'll second.

Any discussion?

Mr. Posner?

Aye.

Mr. Culp? Aye. Mr. Berry? Aye.

Next item on the agenda are two public hearings. I move to open the public hearing for zoning case 434-18. Is there a second?

I'll second.

Any discussion?

Aye. Mr. Cole? Aye. Mr. Berry? Aye.

Zone case number 434-18 is now open. The following will be the order in which the public hearing will proceed. Staff will give a report. The applicant will have an opportunity to speak. Anyone in favor or opposed to the case will have an opportunity to speak. And the board will then close the public hearing and make a final decision via resolution. The board will now hear a report from staff. Mr. Carlson, have the legal requirements for this hearing been met and will you present your report at this time?

Yes. Good evening, board. The requirements for this case have been met. I'd be happy to present my report. I also have a recommendation from the zoning commission. This application is for a final development plan for the higher ground hangar as a private hangar located at the Dayton Wright Brothers Airport, specifically for a helicopter training school.

It's a group that

is intending to locate a new hangar along Springboro Pike close to the other two new hangars that we've recently approved sort of at the south end of the airport close to the city of Springboro property line. Here's a look. The new hangar is actually right up against the taxiway, sort of behind one of the existing storage buildings located just north of the two hangars we've recently approved. I have an image here in a minute that superimposes the new plan over the aerial. Take a look. In general, the applicant expects to complete this project by March of 2027. In terms of public health, safety, morals, and welfare, the only thing we really anticipate would be some new noise generated from the helicopters and whatever the training route they would fly. But again, this is certainly an expected impact for this land use within the airport plan development. Land use is not new itself, but this is potentially an increase in traffic. Traffic control and access site will be accessed from an existing access drive on Sea Route 741. They do anticipate a relatively low amount of traffic. It's not a huge trip generator. We've already worked with the Department of Transportation and believe that this access point will be entirely adequate for this use. Site plan has been reviewed by the Fire District, Public Works, Township Police Department with no express concerns about the proposed structure. And then specifically, it's an 8,000 square foot hangar that we will take a look at in a minute. But I wanted to remind the board in the past, we've looked at some of the other two hangars and some of the other sort of large scale buildings in the Dayton Wright Brothers Airport. We are trying to certainly move the development standards forward, but we have always allowed some flexibility for architectural creativity, knowing that designing a full brick and glass building just to face a taxiway or runway, maybe it doesn't make the most sense. So we've tried to focus the aesthetics on the 741 facing side.

Again, here's a look at the site.

There's just a smaller portion within the larger parcel that they are developing and improving. Here's a quick look at the superimposed building, again, located right up against the taxiway and located north of the other two recently approved private hangars. in terms of the site plan they have worked the applicants worked well with our staff to ensure that they are meeting all of our design requirements height square footage lock coverage parking setbacks everything is as well within our standards Here's a look at the building elevations. Again, full Article 7 typically is requiring all brick, all stone, very, very advanced materials. We have felt that while we don't fully meet these standards, the designs that we have seen from these developers are Some of the nicest airport hangers really around so really appreciate the work that the applicants have done to try to be creative but We again also recognize it as somewhat of a utilitarian Land use so again looking at a stone base wrap they've integrated sort of a architectural wood panel design in a way that the building the way it sits will be viewed from the north south and straight on from springboro pike seeing the improved facades and And similarly with the landscaping, we are working to work within the FAA guidelines, sort of large trees or fruiting trees or anything else like that, potentially as a conflict for the runway, anything that attracts birds or other wildlife is frowned upon by the airport. So we're working with them to try to get some elevated landscaping, but maybe a little bit lower lying things like nice shrubs or flower features, but trying to avoid any kind of trees that are really attracting birds and wildlife. But again, They have certainly worked hard to exceed our standards where they can, recognizing the challenges. Lighting plan, they're well within all of our lighting standards, meeting the six-foot candle maximum. Those typical all-wall packs. Lighting poles are shielded and directed downward. It's particularly important near the airport. We want to be sure that we don't create any new glare or lighting issues out there. And they have also met the 3,000 Kelvin color temperature to ensure that glare is reduced as well. So overall compliance with our development standards, site design in Article 7, plan development standards in 31, 43 parking, 41 signage, 45A landscaping, and then the general airport development standards we have marked here all green. Again, they have been very cognizant of our standards and worked well with us to meet all of these requirements. So the Zoning Commission did recommend approval, and a four to zero vote, the only stipulation that they provide an update to verify the 3,000 Kelvin on the lighting temperature, which they have done. So at this point, none of the Zoning Commission stipulations are unmet. Again, approval and a four to zero vote. If there are any questions of staff, I'd be happy to discuss.

Any questions for Mr. Carlson? Thank you. The board will now hear from the applicant. board will now hear from anyone in favor or opposed to the case are there any further public comments let the record show there were no public comments regarding this matter i move we close the public hearing for zoning case 434-18 is there a second i'll second any discussion mr posey aye mr cole aye mr barry aye This time I move we adopt a resolution 73-2026, a resolution to adopt a final development plan under zoning case 434-18. Therefore, be it resolved, Miami Township Board of Trustees approves the final development plan under zoning case number 434-18 and upholds the zoning commission recommendation. Is there a second? I'll second. Any discussion?

Mr. Pelosi?

Aye.

Mr. Cole?

Aye.

Mr. Barrett? Aye.

At this time, I motion to open the public hearing to discuss Resolution 74-2026 to levy an additional motor vehicle tax license authorized by Ohio Revised Code Section 4504.181 to provide additional revenue for the purpose of roadway maintenance. Is there a second? I'll second. Any discussion?

Mr. Posey?

Aye.

Mr. Cole? Aye. Mr. Berry?

Aye. The public hearing is now open. The following will be the order in which this public hearing will proceed. Mr. Schweikert will give a presentation on the proposed additional motor vehicle license tax. Anyone in favor or opposed to the case will have an opportunity to speak. A time limit of five minutes will be placed on each speaker. And when speaking, please state your name and address for the record. The board will then close the public hearing and make a final decision via resolution. The board will now hear from staff. Mr. Schweikert, have all the legal requirements for this hearing been met and will you present your report at this time?

Good evening, Board. The legal requirements have been met. And jumping right in, Ohio Revised Code allows for local government agencies, such as Miami Township, to include tax in with annual vehicle registrations. The maximum allowed for this tax is $30, 20 of which goes to the county. So the local max would be $10 for local municipalities. Currently, Miami Township only collects five of that, which we began in 2017 under Ohio Revised Code. So in 2019, the Ohio legislators enacted the second portion for collection. So we have waited some time before proposing this additional collection, just taking into account, you know, our residents and property tax values and also wanted to get a gauge on inflation when it comes to resurfacing. The Ohio Department of Public Safety estimates that this additional $5 would generate around $134,000 based on 2025 statistics. And these funds do have restricted uses under the Ohio Revised Code and can only be permitted for improvement and maintenance of township roads and bridges, traffic signal signs, and other related equipment, specifically to our storm and road infrastructure. wanted to provide what we're budgeting this year for that specific permissive. It's around $247,000. Out of that fund, all of our rock salt for winter weather clearing comes out of it. 35% of this fund does go toward resurfacing, a little bit toward curbs, finalizing lease payment for skid steer and attachments that help maintain this infrastructure and road supplies 2%. That's your catch basin storm tiles and cold patch stuff. So based on the last public hearing, I had some feedback from some residents, so I want to include a little bit more on what resurfacing the program entails. The average cost to pave one mile of road is around $250,000. There are some variables depending on how deep you go or their sub base, but it's it's on generally on average around 250,000 Miami Township does have 92. Lane miles of public road. In this year. We're able to pay 1.6 miles of road. And then total resurfacing budgets 421 that comes 421,000 comes out of a few other additional funds. In general, it's not a huge amount that we pay, but we also have contributing factors based on grants and development projects that help us move the pendulum. Why should we enact this $5 registration fee? The Ohio Department of Transportation Urban Design Program says that roads have a 20-year service life. There are some variables that do include average daily traffic counts. This specific picture that is on your screen is Queensway Road. We use a data analysis tool every five years. We use LIDAR technology and infrared sensor to help us scan the township roadways. It really cuts down costs to not have boots on the ground doing this assessment. And we use that specific data to deploy our resources in strategic areas throughout the township for our resurfacing. But this specific road was last taken care of, resurfaced in 1999. But enacting this tax will help us keep up with inflation. In 2016, we were resurfacing roads for around $65 a ton, and this year we're just under $95 a ton. Additional items that will be considered for this tax is it does provide additional stormwater support a lot of our stormwater infrastructure for instance down here for plot that was designed in 1950. So we're we're have an aging stormwater infrastructure. We're less reliant on property taxes and this is a fixed fee that cannot be increased. A few things that I just want to mention that it does have restrictions. What it cannot be used for is personnel salaries. Our road department has not had a staffing increase in over 20 years. However, our road mileage has gone up based on commercial developments, residential developments. It cannot go toward other township departments, and it cannot be used for other related matters that don't pertain to the improvement or maintenance of township roads. And board, lastly here, I just wanted to show you that other townships in Montgomery County have enacted at least the $5 additional tax and four of them have enacted the full allotment and multiple cities in Montgomery County have taken also the full allotment. But I would also like to point out, board, that out of the townships, we are one of three that does not have a road levy. So with that, I'd be happy to answer any questions that you may have on this proposal.

Can you describe any of the cooperative efforts we use to make sure that our road resurfacing costs are as efficient and inexpensive as possible?

Yes. So board in 2020, we started working with the city of Miamisburg, partnering with On their resurfacing program, they're already going out to bid. We work with them. The higher resurfacing totals between the two communities drive down some of the cost. Also, we're in close proximity. So when you have to mobilize the mill or any of the resurfacing equipment, that adds to the cost. So being in close proximity really drives down that number. But I will say that the money, the funds for the township stay in the township, and the city funds stay in the city on the resurfacing program. So they are separate, but just working together, we're able to drive down our cost on tonnage in collaboration.

Yeah, I just want to comment. A few of the jurisdictions you have on there are in the process of upping the $5 tax. I think that number is going to be close to 30 for all of them in the next 60 days.

That is correct, and board also, I did put out based on feedback at our last hearing, a frequently asked questions questionnaire and did add that to our resurfacing page on the website so that way we can keep this information transparent to the residents.

Thank you, Mr. Schweiker. Any other questions?

Just wanted to clarify, you said we're one of three townships that doesn't have a road levy? Is that correct?

That is correct. We are one of three that does not have a road levy to support additional resurfacing.

A separate voted road levy.

Anything else? Thank you. The board will not hear from anyone in favor of this legislation. Seeing none, the board will not hear from anyone in opposition to this legislation. if you're in favor, but if you're opposed, it's almost your turn as well. Which one are you? Why don't you come up to the podium, please? We're not in any hurry today.

My name is Lula Schumard. I lived in Miami Township for 15 years, but I now live in Miamisburg. And on my way to the doctor on April 14th, going north on Miamisburg Soldier's Home at Farmersville, West Carrollton, four-way stop, and the person coming east to west did not stop. My car is totaled. I was in intensive care for a couple days, but I'm out and I'm able to walk again for a short period of time. My question is, you said that part of this could be used for lights. Is it possible that things could be flashing lights at that four-way stop? Because I've heard from several people that that's not, I don't know the numbers. I wouldn't have access to that information, but I've heard that it's repeated accidents at that intersection. So I don't feel good, and I'm not going to stay, and I'm sorry to be rude, but...

i'm hoping that this is heard that's why i went ahead and came out even though i don't feel good so thank you for sharing your concern we'll certainly take a look at it and see what we're able to do anyone else wishing to speak in favor or in opposition to the legislation showing none i move that we close the public hearing on the motor vehicle tax is there a second i'll second any discussion aye this time i move we adopt resolution 74-2026 a resolution to enact a levy on motor vehicle licenses pursuant to a higher revised code section 4504.181 is there a second i'll second any discussion mr posey aye mr cole aye mr barry aye moving on to department head comments chief nielsen

Yes, Board, thank you. Happy to say we're starting year two of Safety Town. We just started yesterday. We've got several dozen kids coming through. A lot of them are the same kids we had come through our first one last year. We've got some siblings. We've got some of the cousins and neighbors of the kids that went through last year. So we had a couple minor crashes yesterday, but we hope to get that ironed out by the end of the week as they learn to drive the pedal cars and things like that. We didn't have to break out a summons book or handcuffs or anything, but it's a great time, and uh it's a great way to just meet the parents and the grandparents and the kids and see all those those those things going on down at jane chance so we've had a lot of really good partnership from them and we've got a lot of volunteers and things like that so it's been great um like i said we started yesterday and we'll be going the rest of this week and all of next week so thank you thank you chief mr schweiker

Yes, speaking of community engagement, I'm happy to report that we had a successful fishing derby this past Saturday. Believe it or not, we broke our record for the highest amount of participants with 93 young anglers at Miami View Park. And it was a fantastic time. And I just want to thank our staff, especially Jill, who put this out multiple times on social media and really had a great idea of partnering with the American 250 for this. And everybody came out and they were supporting the red, white and blue. And it was just a great event. uh... could have done it without you know not not only our public works that helping judge but uh... mister snyder got involved in was helping our staff judge uh... uh... mister stanley from human resources was out there too so uh... it was just a great event by township stuff in our community getting together for fishing and we also had our partners from the library and environmental service in the community foundation so Again, just thank you to everybody that did come out, and I hope to see a similar participation next year. And then last board, I've mentioned a few times about some of the projects, and I do have three specific that I really want to talk about. We are wrapping up 8th Street Park, which was a CBDG project, so that was a fully funded grant project. So down in our Chautauqua, that park is going to be complete with walkway and parking and some other features. We are also wrapping up 16 curb ramps though again were grant funded down in our hubris subdivision and I spoke a little bit about some of the resurfacing and that's in anticipation for next year for our resurfacing so we'll have a lot of good use down there in ADA compliance and then we are a few weeks away from also completing our layer park uh project that was again a grant funded to add ada compliance to our sports field some shade structure over our little young participants out there on the ball diamond and then again some ada tables so just some great projects going on the township and you're going to comment that you had some projects at least preliminarily identified in the state budget this time yes we do have a project identity two projects identified in the state budget one of them includes alex if you want to help me out here we've got some good funding for some recreational use at miami view and also some ada compliance around the pond We did have a few anglers that needed some assistance and it'll be nice if we can utilize some of those funds and distribute those around the pond so those with wheelchairs or other needs can do it safely, fishing.

uh getting included at least preliminarily and i hope that sticks as a credit to both you and the state legislatures state legislators that are responsible for the township so thank you to everyone involved thank you mr carlson john did a great summary i have no comments tonight i'll leave it there mr stanley you have anything for us mr mccord i have nothing further tonight mr snyder

Well, again, I'll just thank all the departments that participated in the Fishing Derby. That was another great event for our fourth annual event, and certainly thanks to all of the residents that came out for that event and brought their kids and seemed to have a great time. So thank you again.

Moving on to board comments. Mr. Klingerman.

Thank you. Mr. Berry.

kind of want to ditto what everybody's been saying but i'm you guys work extremely hard during the day and then still find time to get the community involved with all the different programs i mean you two just named one i know alex has got one coming up so really appreciate all that you do and then thank you to everybody else in the community for coming out voicing your opinions we love hearing feedback and love getting everybody involved thank you

Mr. Culp? All right. What can I say that hasn't been said? I think it's one of our better events that we do every year, so it's great for the kids. And thanks.

Yeah, so I think one of the phrases that I didn't know until like five years ago is core memory. And I think it's overused, I don't love it. But I do have core memories, and I'm reaching an age now where I say when I was a kid, and I'm shocked at how many years it was. But I do have core memories of both Safety Town and fishing derbies. And I'm excited that in this digital world, we're still doing some of these analog events. And Safety Town has a very important purpose in teaching children about how traffic works and how to keep themselves safe if they're not around. parent or responsible adult there's some derbies again seeing that event involved year over year to now when I showed up that the entire pond surrounded by people very impressive a tribute to all the staff that's out there everybody's in a good mood everybody's happy to help and didn't help it was didn't hurt that it was perfect weather for that so again everything that you do both and in this township is appreciated and adopted and I look forward to more in-person events that we can help support With that, we have a need for an executive session. I move that we move into executive session at 6.34 for three purposes. The first, to consider confidential information related to negotiations with other political subdivisions respecting requests for economic development assistance in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 121.22 . the second to consider matters required to be confidential by federal law or regulations and or state statutes in accordance with ohio revised code section 121.22g5 and the third to consider the appointment employment and compensation of a public employee in accordance with ohio revised code section 121.22g1 is there a second second any discussion hi mr call hi mr barry hi conducting the executive session in the conference room to the extent any further public business is needed we'll be returning to this room thank you it is 7 42 p.m we have resumed into regular session from executive session at this time i move we amend the agenda to include a new resolution number 75-2026 a resolution authorizing the township administrator to execute an agreement renewing health insurance as to the amendment of the agenda do i have a second i'll second any discussion This time I move we adopt resolution number 75-2026 resolution authorizing the township administrator to execute an agreement renewing health insurance. Is there a second? I'll second. Mr. Snyder, would you introduce the scope and purpose of the amendment of the resolution?

This is a resolution again to renew our current health insurance plans. This would renew the plans as currently designed with a premium increase as proposed by Anthem Insurance. There is a slight increase on the deductible requirements for the embedded portion of this plan due to IRS requirements. This would also propose an additional increase for employees that are on the embedded plan in their HSA contributions as well, so.

Any questions for Mr. Schneider? At this time, a motion to approve the resolution has been made and seconded. Would you please call the roll?

Mr. Presley?

Aye.

Mr. Goss? Aye. Mr. Barrett? Aye.

With that, I adjourn the meeting at 7.44 p.m.
