    Presiding Officer:

    Others Present:

    Martha A. Baker,

    Michael L. Beamish, Patrick E. J. Titterington, James Livingston, John A. Stickel,

    President of Council

    Mayor Director of Public Service and Safety Director of Law Auditor

    INVOCATION: The meeting began with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by an invocation given by Council Member Clark.

    PUBLIC HEARING: At 7:03p.m., Mrs. Baker declared opened the public hearing on 0-12-2015, rezone part of IL 9891, area of 25.422 acres from A-R, Agricultural-Residential District, to R-3-B, Single-Family Residential District. Speaking in favor of the rezoning, Jessica Minesinger, Nottingham Development, 7 S. Plum Street, the applicant, commented that the minimum lot size under R-3-B is 12,000 square foot, this development is contiguous to the current Nottingham Development that has a requirement of a minimum of 9,000 square foot lots, this development would be 51 lots, about two lots per acre, and will have a connector to Troy-Piqua Road, which should be an advantage for the residents of the area and provide an additional access for fire and police purposes. In response to Mr. Clark, Mrs. Minesinger stated that all the lots in the existing Nottingham Subdivision have been sold to builders or home owners. -Dan Dalton, 612 Shaftsbury, stated he did not have a position on the rezoning, but was concerned about construction traffic by his residence, the only access to this land, and asked that an access road for construction purposes be made available sooner than later. Mr. Titterington commented that while he may concur with Mr. Dalton's comment, that is not a matter of zoning. If the land is rezoned, the subject of a construction access road would be discussed with the developer as a part of the preliminary and final plan process. There were no comments opposing the rezoning. There being no further comments, at 7:08 p.m., Mrs. Baker declared this public hearing closed.

    MINUTES: The Clerk gave a summary of the minutes of the May 4, 2015, meeting of Troy City Council. There were no corrections or additions to these minutes. A motion was made by Mr. Clark, seconded by Mr. Twiss, to approve these minutes. Motion passed by unanimous roll call vote.

    COMMITTEE REPORTS: Community & Economic Development Committee: Mr. Twiss, Chairman, reported that Committee recommends approval of the rezoning covered by Ordinance No. 0-11-2015. Report signed by Kendall, Schweser and Twiss.

    Finance Committee: Mr. Tremblay, reported that Committee recommends legislation be prepared authorizing the City of Troy to make purchases through the governmental cooperative purchasing program known as HGACBuy. Committee supports emergency legislation, as it was discussed that a demo fire rescue unit is currently available through HGACBuy that would meet the needs of the Troy Fire Department, and at a lesser cost than appropriated. Report signed by Schweser, Tremblay and Kendall.

    Law & Ordinance Committee: Mr. Schweser, Chairman, reported that Committee recommends legislation be prepared approving the Miami County Solid Waste Management Plan Update, noting that the plan is updated approximately every five years to project procedures for the next 15 years in dealing with changing solid waste management issues. Report signed by Snee and Schweser.

    Recreation & Parks Committee: Mr. Heath, Chairman, reported that Committee recommends legislation be prepared authorizing the Director of Public Service and Safety to execute the ODNR Capital Improvement Project Grant for a $150,000 grant for the Treasure Island Improvement Project, and more specifically for the parking lot reconstruction. Committee noted that these funds were made available through HB 497. Report signed by Oda, Tremblay and Heath.

    Streets & Sidewalks Committee: Mrs. Snee reported that Committee recommends legislation be prepared authorizing the Director of Public Service and Safety to enter into a contract with L. J. DeWeese Co., Inc. in an amount not to exceed $650,000 for the Streetscape 38 Project. It was noted that the bids came in over the initial $575,000 authorized for the project, and of the project cost, 4 7%, or up to $300,000 will be funded by ODOT. Committee noted that while City costs for the project would be increasing; there is no increase to the assessments for this project as previously accepted by Council. In that a contract must be completed in June to receive the ODOT funding for this project, Committee supported emergency legislation. Report signed by Heath and Snee. Discussion. Mrs. Oda asked about the process for establishing an estimate and why the bid on this project was over. Mr. Titterington commented that factors were the timing of the bids and adding storm water after the initial design/estimate, that the City relies on outside engineers for most project design and estimates, and that most bids are under the estimates.

    Utilities Committee: Mr. Tremblay, Chairman, reported that Committee recommends legislation be prepared authorizing the Director of Public Service and Safety to advertise for bids and enter into a contract for a lime slaker system for the Water Treatment Plant, including installation costs, at a cost not to exceed $182,000. Report signed by Clark, Twiss and Tremblay.

Rather than bins the containers will be 65 gallon containers on wheels, and this should help curb appeal as material will not blow out of the new containers. This should also help the City determine if residential refuse collection should use similar containers in the future. He stated it will be about eight weeks before containers are received and delivered, and the City and vendor will work together to help provide information to citizens regarding the new recycling containers.

    COMMITTEE REPORT TROY CITY COUNCIL

    Community & Economic Development Committee DATE: May 26, 2015

    SUBJECT: REZONING PART OF IL 9891 FROM A-R TO R-3-B, ORDINANCE NO. 0-12-2015

    SUMMARY REPORT: (to be read at Council meeting) Committee members Kendall and Schweser met on May 26 to review a recommendation from the Troy Planning Commission that part of lnlot 9891 be rezoned from A-R, Agricultural-Residential District, to R-3-B, Single-Family Residential District. This is a 25.422 acre parcel located west of Piqua-Troy Road and east of the Nottingham Subdivision. The rezoning was recommended by the Troy Planning Commission.

    RECOMMENDATION: (to be read at Council meeting) We support the recommendation of Troy Planning Commission and recommend that Ordinance No. 0-12-2015 be approved to provide for the rezoning of part of lnlot 9891 from Agricultural-Residential to R-3-B, Single-Family Residential District.

    Respectfully submitted,

    Thomas M. Kendall

    John W. Schweser

    William C. Twiss, Chairman Community and Economic Development Committee

    DETAILED REPORT: Committee members Kendall and Schweser met on May 26, 2015 to review the recommendation from the Troy Planning Commission that part of lnlot 9891 (part of parcel D45-002548) be rezoned from A-R, Agricultural-Residential District, to R-3-B, Single-Family Residential District. This meeting was also attended by Council Member Oda, members of the City staff, the applicant, and citizens.

    This area proposed to be rezoned consists of 25.422 acres of undeveloped land, and is located west of Piqua-Troy Road and east of the Nottingham Subdivision. R-3-B zoning has a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet. The land owner is TTF Brown, LLC. The applicant is Nottingham Development, LLC; Jessica Minesinger, President. The proposed use of the property is a residential development. From information provided from the Planning Commission we understand that the development would consist of approximately 50 lots and be developed in three sections. The development would provide a second point of ingress and egress for the residents of the existing Nottingham Subdivision by requiring access to Piqua-Troy Road. The Troy Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezoning. Council held a Public Hearing on the rezoning at the May 18 meeting, with no comments made opposing the rezoning.

    RECOMMENDATION: We support the recommendation of Troy Planning Commission and recommend that Ordinance No. 0-12-2015 be approved to provide for the rezoning of part of lnlot 9891 from Agricultural-Residential to R-3-B, Single-Family Residential District. In making this recommendation we support the findings of City staff and the Planning Commission that:

    -The proposed rezoning is consistent with the intent and purposes of the City of Troy Zoning Code; -The proposed rezoning is consistent with the surrounding zoning districts; -The proposed use is consistent with permitted uses in the R-3-B district; -The proposed rezoning is consistent with the City of Troy Comprehensive Plan; -The development would provide a second point of ingress and egress for the residents of the existing Nottingham Subdivision by requiring access to Piqua-Troy Road, and allows the city to require the looping of utility lines in the area.

    COMMITTEE REPORT TROY CITY COUNCIL

    Mrs. Baker, President of Council

    FROM: Law & Ordinance Committee

    DATE: May 29, 2015

    SUBJECT: Amending Sidewalk Provision to Address Safety Concerns; Authorizing Annual Painting of Strawberries on Streets

    SUMMARY REPORT: {To be read at Council meeting) Committee members Snee and Schweser met on May 29 to consider legislation related to sidewalk safety and the annual painting of strawberries on certain City streets. Because of safety issues related to some substances that have recently been placed on sidewalks, the Law Director has recommended that legislation be considered to prohibit anyone from placing on a sidewalk any substance that cannot readily be removed with non-pressurized water and a broom and without damaging the sidewalk. The Law Director has also recommended that the City consider legislation that would support the continuation of the painting of strawberries on certain City streets due to the identity of the City of Troy with the Troy Strawberry Festival.

    RECOMMENDATION: (To be read at Council meeting) This Committee recommends that legislation be prepared to:

    1. Amend Section 521.04 of the Ordinances regarding sidewalk obstructions; damages or injury to prohibit the use of any substance on sidewalks that cannot be readily removed with non-pressurized water and a broom and without damaging the sidewalk. We support emergency legislation so that there is no delay in addressing the safety issues.

    2. Authorize the painting of strawberries on City streets around the square area to the same area where the Strawberries have been painted. As the Strawberry Festival will be held soon, we support emergency legislation.

    DETAILED REPORT:

    Respectfully submitted,

    Lynne B. Snee

    Bobby W. Phillips

    John W. Schweser, Chairman Law & Ordinance Committee

    Committee members Snee and Schweser met on May 29, 2015, to consider legislation related to sidewalk safety and the annual painting of strawberries on certain City streets. The meeting was also attended by the Director of Law, the Director of Public Service and Safety, Council Member Oda, members of the City staff, and citizens.

    Mr. Livingston, Director of Law, advised the Committee that the City has the duty to keep sidewalks free and clear and undamaged. There is a silicone substance that has been used to apply messages to sidewalks, and the substance becomes slippery when wet. That substance cannot be removed without damaging the sidewalk and it also takes time to wear off naturally. Allowing the substance to be placed and to remain creates a potential liability for the City when the City is aware of the danger of the substance and does nothing to prohibit it. The Director of Law has proposed that Section 521.04 related to sidewalks be amended to prohibit anyone from placing on a sidewalk any substance that cannot readily be removed with non-pressurized water and a broom and without damaging the sidewalk. The language would specifically prohibit paint and the silicone-based, superhydrophobic substances. This provision would apply to any sidewalk within the City. This should address any potential liability matters and addresses the responsibility

  • Page Two

    of the City to have sidewalks safe for pedestrians. There would not be a prohibition against temporary markings or messages using items such as chalk. So that there is no concern that there would be a prohibition against the strawberries that are annually painted on City streets in the downtown square area, Mr. Livingston suggested that there be legislation that recognizes the identity of the painted strawberries with the City and Troy Strawberry Festival, and that would further permit the annual painting of the strawberries on the street within the specific area where they have been painted in past years.

    Mr. Brian Kemper confirmed that Council had received a letter from his attorney by email on this matter. Mr. Kemper was advised that removal of existing sidewalk markings are not being required.

    REQUESTED ACTION: This Committee recommends that legislation be prepared to:

    1. Amend Section 521.04 of the Ordinances regarding sidewalk obstructions; damages or injury to prohibit the use of any substance on sidewalks that cannot be readily removed with non-pressurized water and a broom and without damaging the sidewalk. We support emergency legislation so that there is no delay in addressing the safety issues.

    2. Authorize the painting of strawberries on City streets around the square area to the same area where the Strawberries have been painted. As the Strawberry Festival will be held soon, we support emergency legislation.

This area proposed to be rezoned consists of 25.422 acres of undeveloped land, and is located west of Piqua-Troy Road and east of the Nottingham Subdivision. R-3-B zoning has a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet. The land owner is TTF Brown, LLC. The applicant is Nottingham Development, LLC; Jessica Minesinger, President.

    The Commission had received a report from City staff, which was reviewed as part of the meeting discussion. That report indicates that the intended use of the property is a residential development. A copy of the information provided to the Commission is attached.

    The applicant commented that this would be the last area of the Nottingham Subdivision; the proposed zoning would result in approximately 50 total lots, developed in three sections, and an anticipated build out schedule of about 12 houses per year.

    The Planning Commission determined not to hold a public hearing on this rezoning application.

    By unanimous vote, the Troy Planning Commission recommends to Troy City Council that Council approve the rezoning of part of lnlot 9891 (part of Parcel 045-002548) on Piqua-Troy Road from Agricultural-Residential to R-3-8, Single-Family Residential District, as requested by the applicant and as recommended by City staff based on:

    o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the intent and purposes of the City of Troy Zoning Code; and o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the surrounding zoning districts; and o Proposed use is consistent with permitted uses in the R-3-B district; and o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the City of Troy Comprehensive Plan; o The development would provide a second point of ingress and egress for the residents of the existing

    Nottingham Subdivision by requiring access to Piqua-Troy Road, and allows the city to require the looping of utility lines in the area.

    This request is forwarded herewith to Council for consideration.

    The Public Hearing before Council has been set for the May 18 meeting of Council.

    The following information will be attached as part of this report.

    o Information provided by City staff, which included the report of staff and a listing of permitted uses for both zoning districts.

    Q) Copy of the draft minutes of the AprilS meeting of the Planning Commission.

    Troy Planning Commission Planning Staff April 8, 2015 Rezoning: Pt of In lot 9891 (25.422 acres) TIF Brown LLC

    APPLICANT: Nottingham Development, Inc. (Jessica Minesinger)

    BACKGROUND:

    Jessica Minesinger, President of Nottingham Development, Inc., has applied for Planning Commission to consider allowing the rezoning of part of Inlot 9891, parcel D45-002548 (25.422 ac.) located west of Piqua-Troy Road. Currently the property is zoned A-R Agricultural-Residential, and the applicant requests that the zoning of the parcel be rezoned to R-3-B Single-Family Residential.

    The land is currently undeveloped and located west of Piqua-Troy Road and east of the Nottingham Subdivision. The surrounding zoning districts include County Zoning of A-2 General Agriculture to the north, City of Troy zoning of Agricultural-Residential to the east, Office-Comt;n.ercial Zoning (OC-1) to the south, and R-4 Single-Family Residential to the west of the parcel. A map depicting the surrounding zoning districts has been attached to this report

    DISCUSSION:

    The applicant has cited that the reasons for the proposed rezoning are to develop the property as an extension of the Nottingham subdivision.

    The Zoning Code describes the current A-R zoning district as "designated to provide for both agricultural and residential activity on large tracts and open land with a minimum of five (5) acres or greater of lot per dwelling unity. This district is mapped in undeveloped areas along existing roadways where there is minimal water and sewer service."

    The Zoning Code describes the proposed R-3-B zoning district as "designed to accommodate single-family dwellings on lots with areas of at least twelve thousand (12,000) square feet per dwelling unit. This district will be mapped for selected areas which will develop in the future. The Comprehensive Plan describes the R-3-B District as medium density."

    Attached to this report is a list of all the A-R and R-3-B zoning districts uses. Also attached is a list that shows comparisons between permitted uses of each zoning district.

    The Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map (Figure 14-2) displays this property as future residential use. Specifically, in Chapter 14, under the Northeast Sub-Area, the Comprehensive Plan states "The desired future residential development for this area is low-density residential, due to the both the characteristics of the land and the adjacent uses to the south. The existing road network cannot support unrestricted or increased

  • Planning Commission re Piqua-Troy Rd. Rezoning AprillJ, 2015 - Page 2 of 3

    numbers of similar residential densities. With future improvements to the road network, however, higher densities could be accommodated."

    In accordance with the Thoroughfare Plan, the City is in the process of improving the road network in the area and is making a significant improvement to the intersection of Piqua-Troy Rd. & Troy-Urbana Road. With the improvements, any future residential development on this property can be handled by the current road network.

    A copy of Figure 14-2 has been attached to this report.

    In reviewing a rezoning proposal, Section 1139.07 outlines the criteria on which to base decisions:

    (A) Whether the change in classification would be consistent with the intent and purpose of this Zoning Code.

    The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Zoning Code. Section 1131.02(o) & (r) state the purposes of the Zoning Code are to preserve and enhance property value, and direct particular land uses to the parcel of land best suited for them. The proposed rezoning request achieves these purposes.

    (B) Whether the proposed amendment is made necessary because of changed or changing conditions in the area affected, and, if so, the nature of such changed or changing conditions.

    The proposed rezoning is not made necessary because of changing conditions in the affected area. The proposed use will not have any adverse effects in the area and is similar to the residential uses that currently exist to west

    (C) Whether the uses that woul(i be permitted on the property if it were reclassified would be compatible with the uses permitted on other property in the immediate vicinity.

    The proposed use is compatible and similar to the residential uses that currently exist to west and will provide a second point of ingress and egress to the residents of the Nottingham Subdivision.

    (D) Whether adequate utility, sewer, and water facilities, and all other needed public services exist or can be provided to serve the uses that would be permitted on a property if it were reclassified

    All utilities can be provided.

    (E) The amount of vacant land that currently has the same zoning classification as is proposed for the subject property, particularly in the vicinity of the subject property, and any special circumstances, in any, that make a substantial part of such vacant land

  • Planning Commission re Piqua-Troy Rd. Rezoning Apri/8, 2015 - Page 3 of 3

    unavailable for development.

    In the vicinity of the subject property, there is no available vacant land with the R-3-B zoning classification.

    (F) Whether the proposed amendment would correct an error in the application of this Zoning Code as applied to the subject property.

    Not applicable in this request.

    PUBLIC BEARING:

    Due to the straight forward nature of the rezoning request, the compliance with the City of Troy Comprehensive Plan, and the fact that City Council is required to hold a public hearing if the request proceeds on, staff does not feel that a public hearing before the Planning Commission is warranted.

    RECOMMENDATION:

    It is staff's opinion that the proposed rezoning will achieve the desired residential development as is discussed in the City of Troy's Comprehensive Plan. The intent of the R -3-B zoning district is to be mapped for selected areas which will develop in the future. The Comprehensive Plan shows this area to be development as residential.

    The proposed residential use will provide an opportunity for the City to provide a second point of ingress and egress for the residents of the existing Nottingham Subdivision by requiring access to Piqua-Troy Road and allows the city to require the looping of utility lines in the area.

    Concerns related to traffic in this area are currently being addressed by the realignment of the Piqua-Troy & Troy-Urbana Rd. intersection. The realignment of this intersection should be completed in the near future.

    Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed rezoning from A-R Agricultural-Residential to R-3-B Single-Family Residential, based on the following:

    o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the intent and purposes o~ the City of Troy Zoning Code; and

    o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the surrounding zoning districts; and o Proposed use is consistent with permitted uses in the R-3-B district; and o The proposed rezoning is consistent with the City of Troy Comprehensive Plan.

    Re: Application for Zoning Amendment- 25.4 Acres (In Lot 9891)- Troy-Piqua Road Troy, Ohio

    Oh behalf of Nottingham Development, Inc., I am seeking a zoning amendment on 25.4 Acres located on Troy-Piqua Road in the City of Troy to R3-B Single Family Residential zoning. The parcel is contiguous to the Nottingham Subdivision and is currently zoned Ag-Residential.

    We are seeking a zoning change to R-3B which requires a minimum of 12,000 s.f. lots. It is our intention to develop the property as an extension of the Nottingham neighborhood with 51 single family residential lots. The lots would be developed as Sections 9, 10 & 11 of Nottingham, comprising approximately 171ots per section. The current Nottingham Covenants and Restrictions, including the square footage requirements, etc.) will be applied to these lots. We will begin developing the final19 lots of Nottingham this spring. This neighborhood has been a great addition to the City of Troy. The price range of homes is averaging $275,000- $400,000 including lot.

    Rezoning the 25.4 acre property from Ag-Residential to R3-B is a benefit to the City of Troy for the following reasons:

    The rezoning will provide additional lot inventory for homes in the $275,000-400,000 price range

    e Based on the current absorption rate in Nottingham, the 51 lots, once developed, would provide approximately 4-5 years of lot inventory. Rezoning to R3-B results in a lot density of 2 lots per acre The Nottingham subdivision is zoned R-4 (9,000 s.f. minimum lots). The R3-B zoning requested, requires larger lots that are a minimum of 12,000 s.f. This extension of loxley lane will provide access to Troy-Piqua Road for current Nottingham residents and will provide a second means of ingress and egress forth~ subdivision. The rezoning will facilitate the looping of utility lines for the existing subdivision and future development.

    o Rezoning and development of this property will provide for the future removal of the existing sewer lift pump station in Nottingham.

    Thank you for your time and consideration regarding this matter,

    We are providing the following for your information:

    Major Project Update: o Sidewalk Program 8 - work has restarted with the remainder of the

    sidewalk marked for replacement. Once the contract is complete, assessments will be finalized.

    o Adams Street Phase 2- contractor is working on the bike path portion of the project, and the bike path access ramp work will commence after the Troy Strawberry Festival. The Hobart Arena Sign has been installed and has been activated. The Community Park fence railing has been installed.

    o Sewer Lining Project - Miller Pipeline has completed the relining in Southview and northeast of the river. Miller Pipeline is also progressing with lining of manholes in conjunction with the sanitary sewer lining. Downtown manhole replacement is complete. Layne Inliner has completed lining the Southwest Interceptor and a walk through for final site restoration was performed.

    o ODOT Paving - final ODOT Legislation was approved. Paving is scheduled to commence after the Troy Strawberry Festival. Paving will occur during the night between Sunday - Thursday. Affected tenants are being contacted with the help of downtown organizations.

    o Water Tower - Council authorized an agreement for the design of a new Extra High Service Water Tower with the firm of EMH&T. The design kick-off meeting was held and potential sites determined. The City Engineer has contacted property owners to discuss the available opportunities for water tower siting along Washington Road and West Stanfield Road. Positive feedback on potential sites has been received. Site analysis is proceeding by the design engineer.

    o Curbside Recycling Program for FY 2015-2017 was awarded to Rumpke of Ohio, Inc., the current vendor. Under this new contract, we will be switching to 65 gallon containers on wheels. It is currently anticipated that these new containers should be delivered to the residents around mid-July. Residents will be permitted to request a second recycling container as part of this contract at no additional charge. This larger size container will allow a resident to recycle more materials, so we hope it will encourage more recycling. Also, as the container will have a lid, there will be fewer incidents of the recycled materials blowing around. Because this system is less labor intensive for the contractor, the new contract is only a slight increase over the expiring contract cost, even though it is based on more collection points. With these containers, the contractor will be able to use an automated system of the driver being able to manipulate the equipment to empty the container without exiting the vehicle. City staff has held an initial meeting with the contractor to look at the number of alleys where the recycling collection will need to be changed to street collection due to the automated collection vehicles. There are a number of alleys where recycling is currently collected that the automated collection vehicle cannot be used due to the configuration of the alleys. The City and the contractor will be working together to provide information to citizens regarding the new containers, where they should be placed (i.e. not next to a mailbox), and specifically working on the communication to the residents where the collection site will need to be moved.

    It is officially Strawberry Season! The Troy Strawberry Festival activities start Friday, June 5, at 6:00 p.m. with the Friday night activities and continue throughout the weekend downtown and on the levee. It is hoped that the weather forecast is for sunny days for the festival.

    The Downtown Troy Farmers Market will begin on June 13 and will be located on Cherry Street between Main Street and Franklin Street. This Farmers Market will be open Saturdays for business from 9:00 a.m. until noon and will run until September 19. The Downtown Farmers Market plans to have seasonal produce, home-made bakery goods, herbs, honey, jams and jellies, and artisan cheeses for sale.

    We appreciate all the efforts for the Memorial Day holiday, especially the members of the local veterans' organizations who provided the Memorial Day Program, all who participated in the program, and all who were involved in preparing the Veterans Memorial Park and the cemetery.

  • CITY OF TROY, OHIO NEWS RELEASE

    CITY OF TROY AWARDED BICYCLE FRIENDLY COMMUNITIES BRONZE RECOGNITION

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    At twelve o'clock noon, on Thursday, May 28, 2015, Steve Clark, the Bicycle Friendly Community Program Specialist, will present the Bicycle Friendly Communities Bronze award to Troy Mayor Michael L. Beamish. This presentation will take place in Troy Council Chambers. This award is presented by the League of American Bicyclists.

    There is an application process that requires a community to demonstrate achievements in five specific categories to be considered for an award. The categories are: Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, and Evaluation & Planning. A description of each category is attached. The comprehensive audit and application process is designed to yield a picture of a community's work to promote bicycling. As communities reach more significant achievements in these five categories, there may be a higher award. In recent years through the application and audit process, the City of Troy had received "honorable mention" recognition. The award categories are bronze, silver, gold, and platinum.

    In being advised of the bronze recognition for the City of Troy, Mayor Beamish commented: "I am extremely proud of the City of Troy in meeting the bronze recognition criteria. This is a great stride for our bicycling citizens. I wish to recognize and commend the efforts of City staff and volunteers in promoting bicycling in the Troy community, and for achieving this recognition. While I have been proud of our honorable mention recognition, it has been my goal that Troy works towards the higher levels of recognition." Mayor Beamish also commented that: "An award by the League of American Bicyclists is designated for four years. The City of Troy will need to continue to work hard to maintain, and hopefully upgrade the level of recognition in the coming years", and further noted: "This enhances Troy's quality of life and assists with workforce development."

    Troy joins the Ohio communities of Westerville, Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Cleveland, Cleveland Heights, Dublin, Lakewood, and Akron in achieving The Bicycle Friendly Community Bronze recognition.
