  • tag verified
  • verbatim Situate in the southeast quaiter of Section 3, Town 7 Nmth, Range 6 East, Clinton Township, Shelby County, State of Ohio. Commencing at an iron pin in a monument box found at the southeast comer of the southeast quarter of Section 3. Said point also being at the centerline of Vandemark Road.
  • note The campus is in the NORTH HALF of Section 3 (A-3225). The CRA expansion of Res. 69-25 covered both tracts, which is why the Council minutes of 2025-09-08 mention them together — that is not a reason to merge them. Journal artifacts ("quaiter", "Nmth", "comer") preserved.

  • finding TWO FIGURES, ONE DOCUMENT, 0.077 ACRES APART. 53.083 is the only figure that ever appears inside a SURVEYED description; 53.16 appears in this ordinance's title and §2, in A-3211's title, in the Planning Commission's case caption for PRZM2025-0005, and in the Council minutes of 2025-09-08. Four City records divide on one tract.
  • not_resolved [open]. The 0.077-acre difference is NOT explained by the roadway dedications shown on A-3211's exhibits (1.808 ac and 0.041 ac). Answered without being resolved.

  • tag verified
  • note Its zoning recommendation DEADLOCKED on 2025-06-16, case PRZM2025-0005 — "M. Asher- yes / P. Miller- no / A. Sakhalkar- no / D. Gross- yes" — which the clerk recorded as "Motion neither passed or failed". ⚠️ Quote that phrasing; do NOT restate a 2-2 tie as "failed". Neither of the two zoning recommendations put to the Commission that night carried.
