Village Council Late January Meeting
Village Council will met Monday and confirmed new appointments to village boards and commissions, extended the moratorium on grave sales for the remainder of 2025, and reviewed a few legislative items.
Appointments to Boards & Commissions
Council confirmed the Mayor’s appointments to various boards and commissions. Most terms are for three years, except the Board of Zoning Appeals and Planning & Zoning Commission which are four years. The complete list of members can be viewed at the Unofficial Codified Ordinances of Chagrin Falls Ohio: Committees, Boards, and Commissions.
Evergreen Cemetery
Due to limited availability, Council voted to extend the moratorium on pre-sales of full size graves for the remainder of 2025. Graves will be sold in cases of immediate need. Plans to expand the cemetery and provide additional inventory are in the works.
Carriage Stone Sidewalks
The Resolution of Necessity for sidewalks on Carriage Stone Drive was left on readings. Council requested (and has since received) the draft of the notification letter that will be sent if the resolution passes and the Carriage Stone Sidewalk Project proceeds.
Traffic Map Changes
Also left on readings were two changes to the village traffic map that would make permanent the three-way stop at the intersection of East Orange, North, and Mill Streets, and create a No Parking Zone on the west side of Williams Street. The parking change generated a lot of questions and discussion, so we’ll take a look in the next meeting of the Safety Committee.
Up Next
The next meeting of Council will be Monday, February 10, 2025 at 7:30 pm.
