Visitors:
Ms. Susan Johnson, of 1031 Willow Creek Drive, stated that after a recent discussion with a neighbor, she
thoroughly reviewed the proposed 2026 Comprehensive Plan and had a few concerns she wanted to bring
to Council’s attention. Within the land use map in the plan, a parcel used as a farm field located to the rear
of her house is proposed to be suitable for a mixed-use residential development that may include
condominiums and apartments. She stated that she prefers the parcel remain as an agricultural use for

800 Village Boulevard | P.O. Box 167 | Plain City, OH 43064 | 614-873-3527 | plaincityohio.gov

Page 4 of 68

privacy and security reasons. Ms. Johnson discussed the importance of overall safety and connectivity
within the community, as illustrated in the public comment responses included in the 2026
Comprehensive Plan. She believes that condominiums or apartments would not meet the stated goals of
the plan. However, if the parcel is not maintained as an agricultural use, she would prefer that it be zoned
for single family houses, rather than the proposed higher density use of condominiums and apartments.
She thanked Council for their time and consideration.
Mayor Carney noted that although Council is not obligated to respond to visitor comments, given the topic
and numerous questions she has received on the same topic, she will take this opportunity to provide
additional information about the 2026 Comprehensive Plan. At the inquiry of Mayor Carney, it was
confirmed by Ms. Lupton that the consultant is revising several components of the plan, pursuant to
Council’s discussion during the meeting on August 10, 2026. Included in the revisions is changes to the
proposed land use map, including the parcel described by Ms. Johnson and a large parcel located behind
the Plain City Lanes business. Both parcels will include lower density housing options as potential land
uses. Ms. Lupton stated that the revised version is expected to be ready for Council review by the
September 14, 2026 Council meeting and will be publicly advertised as well. Mr. Derek Hutchinson, the

Discussion Items:
E-Bikes and E-Scooters:
Ms. Lupton and Mr. Dreier provided an overview of the changes to the proposed code pursuant to the
discussion during the August 5, 2026 Council meeting. Included in the revisions is the removal of the

equipment on sidewalks and shared-use paths. Ms. Arnold stated that she would like additional time to
review the proposed code and to ensure that adequate community education takes place prior to code

MEMORANDUM
To:

Members of the Village of Plain City Council

From: Haley Lupton, Village Administrator
Date: August 25, 2026
RE:

Resolution 38-2026: Stating What Services the Village of Plain City Will Provide to
the 5.67 +/- Acres of Land in Darby Township, Madison County, Ohio if Annexed to
the Village

Background:
In accordance with the Ohio Revised Code, Chapter 709.03, the Village of Plain City, when
presented with a property owner that desires annexation into the Village, must approve
legislation that states what services will be provided to that property if the annexation is
approved. Resolution 38-2026, if approved, fulfills that requirement by outlining the services the
Village will provide and when those services will begin. It is important to note that Resolution 382026 does not approve the annexation, rather its focus is formalizing the services that will be
provided to the property if the annexation is accepted.
Wilcox Investment Group, LLC, on behalf of the property owners of the parcel identified below,
are completing the process to request annexation. The parcel, as identified by the Madison
County Auditor, is as follows:
•

02-00031.000

0 Lafayette Plain City Road, Plain City, Ohio 43064

Wilcox Investment Group, LLC submitted a petition requesting annexation to the Madison County
Board of Commissioners on August 18, 2026. The State of Ohio law prescribes a twenty (20) day
deadline from the petition submission date for this part of the annexation process, with the
expiration of that deadline to occur on September 7, 2026.

800 Village Boulevard | P.O. Box 167 | Plain City, OH 43064 | 614-873-3527 | plaincityohio.gov

Page 53 of 68

Objective:
To provide a formal statement of services that the Village will provide to the property if it is
annexed into the Village, as well as requiring buffering if new uses may be incompatible with
surrounding existing uses.
Recommendation:
Staff supports and recommends the passage of Resolution 38-2026 within the twenty (20) day
timeframe, which requires approval no later than the September 2, 2026 Council meeting. The
proposed Statement of Services fulfills all required State and local requirements. Staff is in
support of the proposed annexation.

RESOLUTION NO. 38-2026
A RESOLUTION STATING WHAT SERVICES THE VILLAGE OF PLAIN CITY
WILL PROVIDE TO THE 5.67 +/- ACRES OF LAND IN DARBY TOWNSHIP,
MADISON COUNTY, OHIO IF ANNEXED TO THE VILLAGE
WHEREAS, Wilcox Investment Group, LLC, on behalf of property owners of approximately
5.67 +/- acres of land located at 0 Lafayette Plain City Road in Darby Township, Madison
County, Ohio, identified by the Madison County Auditor with parcel number 02-00031.000,
desires annexation into the Village of Plain City; and
WHEREAS, a petition requesting annexation was filed with the Board of County
Commissioners of Madison County on August 18, 2026; and
WHEREAS, Ohio Revised Code 709.023(C) requires that a municipal corporation shall, by
ordinance or resolution, adopt a statement indicating what services, if any, the municipal
corporation will provide to the territory sought to be annexed and an approximate date by
which it will provide them; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds that the general good of the territory sought to be
annexed will be served by its annexation to the Village of Plain City and that the territory is
not unreasonably large to be annexed; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council has determined that the territory encompassed within the
annexation petition can easily become and be made a part of the community of the Village
of Plain City, and that said annexation at the earliest possible date is in the best interest of
the Village of Plain City.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the Village of Plain City, Ohio, a majority
of the members elected or appointed thereto concurring, as follows:
Section 1. The Village of Plain City will provide to the territory sought to be annexed all
services that are currently available to the remainder of the Village, specifically including
the following:
A. The services of full-time administrative staff, including the Village Attorney, Village
Finance Director, Utility Clerk, and Village Income Tax Director.
B. The services of the Village Development Services Department, which performs
work related to the enforcement of the Planning and Zoning Code of the Codified
Ordinances of the Village of Plain City.
C. The services of the West Jefferson Building Department, which performs technical
and professional work related to the issuance of building permits, occupancy
permits, and relevant inspections.

patrol, radar details, complaint investigations, accident investigations, and incident
investigations with a response time of approximately five minutes.
E. The services of the Pleasant Valley Joint Fire District including fire protection and

provided by Local Waste, Inc.
Section 2. Centralized water and sanitary sewer services shall be provided to the territory
by the Mid-Ohio Water and Sewer District, an independent third-party utility provider. The
Village and Petitioner are actively coordinating with the District to facilitate the extension
of these utilities in accordance with the District’s rules and regulations, with service
projected to be available for connection within thirty-six (36) months of the effective date
of the annexation.
Section 3. Except where noted, the services listed above will be provided to the territory
immediately upon the effective date of the annexation. Nothing in this Resolution shall
preclude the Village from providing additional services as needed and as available.
Section 4. In the event the properties are annexed and become subject to the Village of
Plain City zoning and permit uses, if the Village determines there are clearly incompatible
uses permitted under Madison County regulations in effect at the time of the filing of the
petition, then the Village of Plain City will require the owner or owners of the annexed
properties to provide a buffer separating the use of the annexed territory and the adjacent
land remaining within Madison County. The term “buffer” includes open space, landscaping,
fences, walls, and other structured elements such as streets, street rights-of-way, bicycle
trails, pedestrian pathways, and sidewalks.
Section 5. The Clerk of Council of the Village of Plain City is hereby directed to forward a
certified copy of this Resolution to the Board of County Commissioners of Madison County.
Section 6. It is found that all formal actions of this Council concerning and relating to the
passage of this Resolution were adopted in an open meeting of this Council and that all
deliberations of this Council that resulted in this formal action were in meetings open to the
public in compliance with all legal requirements, including Section 121.22 of the Ohio
Revised Code.
Section 7. This Resolution shall be effective from and after the earliest period provided by
law.

Page 59 of 68

Section 1. It is necessary to issue bonds of this Village in the maximum aggregate principal
amount of $3,850,000 (the “Bonds”) for the purpose of paying the costs of (a) constructing,
furnishing, equipping and improving municipal facilities, together with related site
improvements and all necessary appurtenances thereto, (b) acquiring, constructing,
expanding, repairing, rehabilitating and otherwise improving the municipal sewer system,
together with all necessary appurtenances thereto, (c) constructing, reconstructing and

improving the municipal water system, together with all necessary appurtenances thereto,

municipal park system by acquiring real estate to be used for constructing open gathering
places and public parking, together with all necessary appurtenances thereto and (h)
acquiring real estate to be used for municipal purposes, together with all necessary
appurtenances thereto (collectively, the “Improvement”).
Section 2. The Bonds shall be dated approximately September 1, 2027, shall bear interest at
the now estimated rate of 6.00% per year, payable semiannually until the principal amount
is paid, and are estimated to mature in twenty (20) annual principal installments on
December 1 of each year and in such amounts that the total principal and interest payments
on the Bonds, in any fiscal year in which principal is payable, shall be substantially equal.
The first principal payment of the Bonds is estimated to be December 1, 2027.
Section 3. It is necessary to issue and this Council determines that notes in the maximum
aggregate principal amount of $3,850,000 (the “Notes”) shall be issued in anticipation of the
issuance of the Bonds for the component purposes described in Section 1 and to retire,
together with other funds available to the Village, the Outstanding Notes and to pay any
financing costs. The aggregate principal amount of Notes to be issued (not to exceed the
aggregate of the maximum amount for each component purpose) shall be determined by
the Director of Finance in the certificate awarding the Notes in accordance with Section 6
of this Ordinance (the “Certificate of Award”) as the amount which, along with other available
funds of the Village, is necessary to provide for the retirement of the Outstanding Notes and
to pay any financing costs. The Notes shall be dated the date of issuance and shall mature
not more than one year following the date of issuance, provided that the Director of Finance
shall establish the maturity date in the Certificate of Award. The Notes shall bear interest
at a rate or rates not to exceed 6.00% per year (computed on the basis of a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months), payable at maturity and until the principal amount is
paid or payment is provided for. The rate or rates of interest on the Notes shall be
determined by the Director of Finance in the Certificate of Award in accordance with
Section 6 of this Ordinance.
Section 4. The debt charges on the Notes shall be payable in lawful money of the United
States of America or in Federal Reserve funds of the United States of America as
determined by the Director of Finance in the Certificate of Award, and shall be payable,

Page 60 of 68

without deduction for services of the Village’s paying agent, at the office of a bank or trust
company designated by the Director of Finance in the Certificate of Award after
determining that the payment at that bank or trust company will not endanger the funds or
securities of the Village and that proper procedures and safeguards are available for that
purpose or at the office of the Director of Finance if agreed to by the Director of Finance
and the original purchaser (the “Paying Agent”).
The Administrator and the Director of Finance shall sign and deliver, in the name and on
behalf of the Village, the Note Registrar Agreement between the Village and the Paying
Agent, in substantially the form as is now on file with the Clerk of Council. The Note
Registrar Agreement is approved, together with any changes or amendments that are not
inconsistent with this Ordinance and not substantially adverse to the Village and that are
approved by the Administrator and the Director of Finance on behalf of the Village, all of
which shall be conclusively evidenced by the signing of the Note Registrar Agreement or
amendments thereto. The Director of Finance shall provide for the payment of the services
rendered and for reimbursement of expenses incurred pursuant to the Note Registrar
Agreement, except to the extent paid or reimbursed by the original purchaser in accordance
with the Note Purchase Agreement and/or the Certificate of Award, from the proceeds of
the Notes to the extent available and then from other money lawfully available and
appropriated or to be appropriated for that purpose.
Section 5. The Notes shall be signed by the Administrator and the Director of Finance, in the
name of the Village and in their official capacities; provided that one of those signatures
may be a facsimile. The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 (and
may be issued in denominations in such amounts in excess thereof as requested by the
original purchaser and approved by the Director of Finance) and with numbers as requested
by the original purchaser and approved by the Director of Finance. The entire principal
amount may be represented by a single note and may be issued as fully registered securities
(for which the Director of Finance will serve as note registrar) and in book entry or other
uncertificated form in accordance with Section 9.96 and Chapter 133 of the Ohio Revised
Code if it is determined by the Director of Finance that issuance of fully registered
securities in that form will facilitate the sale and delivery of the Notes. The Notes shall not
have coupons attached, shall be numbered as determined by the Director of Finance and
shall express upon their faces the purpose, in summary terms, for which they are issued and
that they are issued pursuant to this Ordinance. As used in this Section and this Ordinance:
“Book entry form” or “book entry system” means a form or system under which (a) the
ownership of beneficial interests in the Notes and the principal of and interest on the Notes
may be transferred only through a book entry, and (b) a single physical Note certificate in
fully registered form is issued by the Village and payable only to a Depository or its nominee
as registered owner, with the certificate deposited with and “immobilized” in the custody of
the Depository or its designated agent for that purpose. The book entry maintained by
others than the Village is the record that identifies the owners of beneficial interests in the
Notes and that principal and interest.

Page 61 of 68

“Depository” means any securities depository that is a clearing agency registered pursuant
to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, operating and
maintaining, with its Participants or otherwise, a book entry system to record ownership of
beneficial interests in the Notes or the principal of and interest on the Notes, and to effect
transfers of the Notes, in book entry form, and includes and means initially The Depository
Trust Company (a limited purpose trust company).
“Participant” means any participant contracting with a Depository under a book entry
system and includes securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies and
clearing corporations.
The Notes may be issued to a Depository for use in a book entry system and, if and as long
as a book entry system is utilized, (a) the Notes may be issued in the form of a single Note
made payable to the Depository or its nominee and immobilized in the custody of the
Depository or its agent for that purpose; (b) the beneficial owners in book entry form shall
have no right to receive the Notes in the form of physical securities or certificates; (c)
ownership of beneficial interests in book entry form shall be shown by book entry on the
system maintained and operated by the Depository and its Participants, and transfers of the
ownership of beneficial interests shall be made only by book entry by the Depository and its
Participants; and (d) the Notes as such shall not be transferable or exchangeable, except for
transfer to another Depository or to another nominee of a Depository, without further action
by the Village.
If any Depository determines not to continue to act as a Depository for the Notes for use in
a book entry system, the Director of Finance may attempt to establish a securities
depository/book entry relationship with another qualified Depository. If the Director of
Finance does not or is unable to do so, the Director of Finance, after making provision for
notification of the beneficial owners by the then Depository and any other arrangements
deemed necessary, shall permit withdrawal of the Notes from the Depository, and shall
cause the Notes in bearer or payable form to be signed by the officers authorized to sign the
Notes and delivered to the assigns of the Depository or its nominee, all at the cost and
expense (including any costs of printing), if the event is not the result of Village action or
inaction, of those persons requesting such issuance.
The Director of Finance is also hereby authorized and directed, to the extent necessary or
required, to enter into any agreements determined necessary in connection with the book
entry system for the Notes, after determining that the signing thereof will not endanger the
funds or securities of the Village.
Section 6. The Notes shall be sold at not less than par plus accrued interest (if any) at private
sale by the Director of Finance in accordance with law and the provisions of this Ordinance.
The Director of Finance shall sign the Certificate of Award referred to in Section 3 fixing the
interest rate or rates which the Notes shall bear and evidencing that sale to the original
purchaser, cause the Notes to be prepared, and have the Notes signed and delivered,
together with a true transcript of proceedings with reference to the issuance of the Notes

Page 62 of 68

if requested by the original purchaser, to the original purchaser upon payment of the
purchase price.
The Note Purchase Agreement between the Village and the original purchaser and now on
file with the Clerk of Council is approved, and the Administrator and the Director of Finance
are authorized to sign and deliver, on behalf of the Village, the Note Purchase Agreement
with such changes that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Ordinance, are not
materially adverse to the interests of the Village and are approved by the Administrator and
the Director of Finance. Any such changes to the Note Purchase Agreement are not
materially adverse to the interests of the Village and are approved by the Administrator and
the Director of Finance shall be evidenced conclusively by the signing of the Note Purchase
Agreement by the Administrator and the Director of Finance.
The Mayor, the Administrator, the Director of Finance, the Director of Law, the Clerk of
Council and other Village officials, as appropriate, and any person serving in an interim or
acting capacity for any such official, are each authorized and directed to sign any transcript
certificates, financial statements and other documents and instruments and to take such
actions as are necessary or appropriate to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Ordinance. Any actions heretofore taken by the Mayor, the Administrator, the Director
of Finance, the Director of Law, the Clerk of Council or other Village official, as appropriate,
in doing any and all acts necessary in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes are
hereby ratified and confirmed. The Director of Finance is authorized, if it is determined to
be in the best interest of the Village, to combine the issue of Notes with one or more other
note issues of the Village into a consolidated note issue pursuant to Section 133.30(B) of the
Ohio Revised Code.
To the extent that the Director of Finance determines that it would be in the best interest
of the Village and elects to utilize the Ohio Market Access Program (the “Ohio Market Access
Program”) which is administered by the Treasurer of the State of Ohio (the “Treasurer”), the
Administrator and the Director of Finance are authorized to sign and deliver, in the name
and on behalf of the Village, the Standby Note Purchase Agreement (the “Standby Note
Purchase Agreement”) in substantially the form as presented to this Village Council with
such changes as are not materially adverse to the Village and as may be approved by the
officers of the Village executing the Standby Note Purchase Agreement. The Village
acknowledges the agreement of the Treasurer in the Standby Note Purchase Agreement
that, in the event the Village is unable to repay the principal amount and accrued and unpaid
interest of the Notes at their maturity, whether through its own funds or through the
issuance of other obligations of the Village, the Treasurer agrees to (a) purchase the Notes
from the holders or beneficial owners thereof upon their presentation to the Treasurer for
such purchase at a price of par plus accrued interest to maturity or (b) purchase renewal
notes of the Village in a principal amount not greater than the principal amount of the Notes
plus interest due at maturity, with such renewal notes bearing interest at the Renewal Note
Rate (as defined in the Standby Note Purchase Agreement), maturing not more than one
year after the date of their issuance, and being prepayable at any time with 30 days’ notice,
provided that in connection with the Treasurer’s purchase of such renewal notes the Village

Page 63 of 68

shall deliver to the Treasurer an unqualified opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel
that (i) such renewal notes are the legal, valid and binding general obligations of the Village,
and the principal of and interest on such renewal notes, unless paid from other sources, are
to be paid from the proceeds of the levy of ad valorem taxes, within the ten-mill limitation
imposed by law, on all property subject to ad valorem taxes levied by the Village and (ii)
interest on the renewal notes is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, to the same extent
that interest on the Notes is so excluded.
The officers signing the Notes are authorized to take all actions that may in their judgment
reasonably be necessary to provide for the Standby Note Purchase Agreement, including
but not limited to the inclusion of a notation on the form of the Notes providing notice to the
holders or beneficial owners of the existence of the Standby Note Purchase Agreement and
providing instructions to such holders or beneficial owners regarding the presentation of
the Note for purchase by the Treasurer at stated maturity.
Section 7. The proceeds from the sale of the Notes received by the Village (or withheld by
the original purchaser or deposited with the Paying Agent, in each case on behalf of the
Village) shall be paid into the proper fund or funds, and those proceeds are appropriated and
shall be used for the purpose for which the Notes are being issued. The Certificate of Award
and/or the Note Purchase Agreement may authorize the original purchaser to (a) withhold
certain proceeds from the sale of the Notes or (b) remit certain proceeds from the sale of
the Notes to the Paying Agent, in each case to provide for the payment of certain financing
costs on behalf of the Village. If proceeds are remitted to the Paying Agent in accordance
with this Section 7, the Paying Agent shall be authorized to create a fund in accordance with
the Note Registrar Agreement for that purpose. Any portion of those proceeds received by
the Village (after payment of those financing costs) representing premium or accrued
interest shall be paid into the Bond Retirement Fund.
Section 8. The par value to be received from the sale of the Bonds or of any renewal notes
and any excess funds resulting from the issuance of the Notes shall, to the extent
necessary, be used to pay the debt charges on the Notes at maturity and are pledged for
that purpose.
Section 9. During the year or years in which the Notes are outstanding, there shall be levied
on all the taxable property in the Village, in addition to all other taxes, the same tax that
would have been levied if the Bonds had been issued without the prior issuance of the
Notes. The tax shall be within the ten mill limitation imposed by law, shall be and is ordered
computed, certified, levied and extended upon the tax duplicate and collected by the same
officers, in the same manner, and at the same time that taxes for general purposes for each
of those years are certified, levied, extended and collected, and shall be placed before and
in preference to all other items and for the full amount thereof. The proceeds of the tax levy
shall be placed in the Bond Retirement Fund, which is irrevocably pledged for the payment
of the debt charges on the Notes or the Bonds when and as the same fall due.

In each year to the extent receipts from the municipal income tax are available for the
payment of the debt charges on the Notes or the Bonds and are appropriated for that
purpose, the amount of the tax shall be reduced by the amount of such receipts so available
and appropriated in compliance with the following covenant. To the extent necessary, the
debt charges on the Notes or the Bonds shall be paid from municipal income taxes lawfully
available therefor under the Constitution and the laws of the State of Ohio and the Charter
of the Village; and the Village hereby covenants, subject and pursuant to such authority,
including particularly Section 133.05(B)(7) of the Ohio Revised Code, to appropriate annually
from such municipal income taxes such amount as is necessary to meet such annual debt
charges.
Nothing in the preceding paragraph in any way diminishes the irrevocable pledge of the full
faith and credit and general property taxing power of the Village to the prompt payment of
the debt charges on the Notes or the Bonds.
Section 10. The Village covenants that it will use, and will restrict the use and investment of,
the proceeds of the Notes in such manner and to such extent as may be necessary so that
(a) the Notes will not (i) constitute private activity bonds or arbitrage bonds under Sections
141 or 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or (ii) be treated
other than as bonds the interest on which is excluded from gross income under Section 103
of the Code, and (b) the interest on the Notes will not be an item of tax preference under
Section 57 of the Code.
The Village further covenants that (a) it will take or cause to be taken such actions that may
be required of it for the interest on the Notes to be and remain excluded from gross income
for federal income tax purposes, (b) it will not take or authorize to be taken any actions that
would adversely affect that exclusion, and (c) it, or persons acting for it, will, among other
acts of compliance, (i) apply the proceeds of the Notes to the governmental purpose of the
borrowing, (ii) restrict the yield on investment property, (iii) make timely and adequate
payments to the federal government, (iv) maintain books and records and make calculations
and reports and (v) refrain from certain uses of those proceeds, and, as applicable, of
property financed with such proceeds, all in such manner and to the extent necessary to
assure such exclusion of that interest under the Code.
The Director of Finance or any other officer of the Village having responsibility for issuance
of the Notes is hereby authorized (a) to make or effect any election, selection, designation,
choice, consent, approval, or waiver on behalf of the Village with respect to the Notes as the
Village is permitted to or required to make or give under the federal income tax laws,
including, without limitation thereto, any of the elections available under Section 148 of the
Code, for the purpose of assuring, enhancing or protecting favorable tax treatment or
status of the Notes or interest thereon or assisting compliance with requirements for that
purpose, reducing the burden or expense of such compliance, reducing the rebate amount
or payments or penalties with respect to the Notes, or making payments of special amounts
in lieu of making computations to determine, or paying, excess earnings as rebate, or
obviating those amounts or payments with respect to the Notes, which action shall be in

Page 65 of 68

writing and signed by the officer, (b) to take any and all other actions, make or obtain
calculations, make payments, and make or give reports, covenants and certifications of and
on behalf of the Village, as may be appropriate to assure the exclusion of interest from gross
income and the intended tax status of the Notes, and (c) to give one or more appropriate
certificates of the Village, for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings for the Notes,
setting forth the reasonable expectations of the Village regarding the amount and use of all
the proceeds of the Notes, the facts, circumstances and estimates on which they are based,
and other facts and circumstances relevant to the tax treatment of the interest on and the
tax status of the Notes. The Director of Finance or any other officer of the Village having
responsibility for issuance of the Notes is specifically authorized to designate the Notes as
“qualified tax-exempt obligations” if such designation is applicable and desirable, and to
make any related necessary representations and covenants.
Each covenant made in this Section with respect to the Notes is also made with respect to
all issues any portion of the debt service on which is paid from proceeds of the Notes (and,
if different, the original issue and any refunding issues in a series of refundings), to the
extent such compliance is necessary to assure the exclusion of interest on the Notes from
gross income for federal income tax purposes, and the officers identified above are
authorized to take actions with respect to those issues as they are authorized in this Section
to take with respect to the Notes.
Section 11. The Director of Finance is authorized to request a rating for the Notes from
Moody’s Ratings or S&P Global Ratings, or both, as the Director of Finance determines is in
the best interest of the Village. The expenditure of the amounts necessary to secure any
such ratings as well as to pay the other financing costs (as defined in Section 133.01 of the
Ohio Revised Code) in connection with the Notes is hereby authorized and approved and the
amounts necessary to pay those costs are hereby appropriated from the proceeds of the
Notes, if available, and otherwise from available moneys in the General Fund.
Section 12. The legal services of the law firm of Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP, as bond

regulations of the State of Ohio, any county or municipal corporation or of this Village, or the
execution of public trusts. For those legal services, that firm shall be paid just and
reasonable compensation and shall be reimbursed for actual out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in providing those legal services. To the extent they are not paid or reimbursed
pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and/or the Note Registrar Agreement, the
Director of Finance is authorized and directed to make appropriate certification as to the
availability of funds for those fees and any reimbursement and to issue an appropriate order

necessary to pay those fees and any reimbursement are hereby appropriated from the
proceeds of the Notes, if available, and otherwise from available moneys in the General
Fund.
Section 13. The services of Rockmill Financial Consulting, LLC, as municipal advisor, are
hereby retained. The municipal advisory services shall be in the nature of financial advice
and recommendations in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes. In rendering
those municipal advisory services, as an independent contractor, that firm shall not
exercise any administrative discretion on behalf of the Village in the formulation of public
policy, expenditure of public funds, enforcement of laws, rules and regulations of the State
of Ohio, the Village or any other political subdivision, or the execution of public trusts. That
firm shall be paid just and reasonable compensation for those municipal advisory services
and shall be reimbursed for the actual out-of-pocket expenses it incurs in rendering those
municipal advisory services. To the extent they are not paid or reimbursed pursuant to the
Note Purchase Agreement and/or the Note Registrar Agreement, the Director of Finance is
authorized and directed to make appropriate certification as to the availability of funds for
those fees and any reimbursement and to issue an appropriate order for their timely
payment as written statements are submitted by that firm. The amounts necessary to pay

and credit and general property taxing power (as described in Section 9) of the Village are
pledged for the timely payment of the debt charges on the Notes; and that no statutory or
constitutional limitation of indebtedness or taxation will have been exceeded in the
