Mayor Klein said the Bahama Breeze restaurant will be demolished and replaced by a mixed‑use project; a related approval item is expected at an upcoming council meeting. The mayor described Pinecrest’s recent sale to a North Carolina developer known for outlet centers and higher‑end mixed‑use shopping centers and said the buyer plans to position Pinecrest as a “diamond in their portfolio,” adding financial resources and prospective tenants to the site.

Staff member Kim Ulner reported that Omni Senior Living brought a revision to a previously reviewed proposal that would convert some commercial lots to 15 townhomes; she said the developer asked the village to allow those townhomes without the usual 55+ restriction, and the planning commission approved a similar‑use determination (staff noted the change would create a buffer between commercial uses and existing residential areas). Ulner said, to her knowledge, the 15 townhomes are additional units to the prior plan.

Mayor Klein also said one planning‑commission member will take a leave of absence and asked the council to meet in executive session next week to discuss appointment options; he suggested the body may reach back to a recent pool of applicants to fill the vacancy temporarily or permanently as projects near formal applications.

Other context provided during the meeting included the mayor’s report on recent outreach in Washington, D.C., on housing and tax credit matters and an update that the First Calls program (a 9‑1‑1–adjacent initiative) attracted interest from the National 9‑1‑1 organization. Council members and staff said more detailed project materials will be circulated to council before formal votes and public hearings.

Ending: The council set public hearings for the next meeting and asked staff to circulate redevelopment materials; the planning‑commission appointment will be addressed in executive session next week.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Orange Village Ohio Special Council Meeting - March 5, 2025 at 7:00 p.m.","oneSentenceSummary","Mayor Klein and village staff briefed the Orange Village Council on redevelopment plans for the Bahama Breeze site, the Pinecrest sale and a change to an Omni Senior Living proposal that would add non‑senior townhomes, and requested an executive session to address a planning‑commission vacancy.","taxTitle","Orange Village Council, Orange Village, Cuyahoga County, Ohio","taxId",74606,"location","Ohio","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6292791,"Orange Village Council confirms firefighter, approves radios and tree-canopy ordinance; several minutes approved",302,44000,346000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2525357-fbf7728bcc4bca0993f106884c56dc3f&start=44&end=346","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2525357-fbf7728bcc4bca0993f106884c56dc3f/thumbnail_44000.jpg","/articles/6292791/Ohio/Orange-Village-Council-confirms-firefighter-approves-radios-and-tree-canopy-ordinance-several-minutes-approved","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6292791-73f2a92196d92ab202b48efdbf1ff665/orig.mp4?Expires=1771179507&Signature=n-MIiKkGUN7XCJua5eNkW8DYKIWCwydfJ9l~Dwtot7rkGzxGYb-k9rW5LbOneBUb1xx-9NIPbSXdIvSgw9T0uzKs-uCDcCQGpCcqL5UVNlmj6-rxYfp1GNrsZpgBYCLV96m6y2EZ5Jp8fzfvVc0M4oSgc8153spphvv0a4Z41atQsqr0CnqKTDWDjTHN9ry-6BfQm7mwzSMUE38UKsYfjQlk84ZCYksWqjDINl-i6vZgzltpgvjSalAaRI1lztiglnu9zYrfeg0McVe~UmrbkNRYbDGXParXCGYhoseN5y22-I1rEOD8pe5fTo~IYTPUCrDn-AeWxRVSZkkST-0qyA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Orange Village Council on March 5 confirmed Patrick Herrity as a part‑time firefighter and paramedic, authorized a payment to Chagrin Valley Dispatch for radios and adopted a tree‑canopy ordinance, among other routine votes.

The council voted unanimously to confirm Patrick Herrity to the Orange Village Fire Department after Assistant Chief Bill Mann introduced Herrity’s qualifications, saying Herrity “is extremely charismatic, positive, full of energy, and very personable” and noting he is a certified paramedic with firefighter II certification and nearly a year of full‑time service at Mayfield Heights. The mayor administered the oath during the meeting.

The council approved an expenditure not to exceed $43,100 to Chagrin Valley Dispatch (CVD) to cover annual use and maintenance for portable police and fire radios. Council discussion said contracting through CVD produced about a $6,000 discount and that the village will pay for device usage over the next 10 years while CVD maintains the equipment.

Council members also approved Ordinance 2025‑5, adopting a tree canopy and a 20‑year canopy table as Exhibit A to chapter 1375 of the village code; the ordinance was presented on third reading and passed with an emergency declaration. Ordinance 2025‑6 (new chapter 743, marijuana business regulation) remains on second reading and was not voted on at this meeting.

The council approved the minutes of the special council meeting of Feb. 5, 2025 (one abstention recorded) and the council meeting minutes of Feb. 12, 2025 (approved unanimously). Several routine motions and roll calls were recorded without extended discussion.

The tree‑canopy ordinance was adopted on third reading and declared an emergency, advancing the village’s canopy policy as codified in chapter 1375.

Items discussed but not decided included Ordinance 2025‑6 (marijuana business regulation), which is on second reading and slated for future votes, and a request by the Ohio Division of Liquor Control regarding a license for Woodhouse Day Spa at 300 Park Ave.; the council indicated no objection based on available evidence.

The meeting concluded after routine business and announcements; the mayor and several council members provided updates on community events and upcoming public hearings.

Ending: The council scheduled additional business — including public hearings and development items — for upcoming meetings; votes recorded at this session take immediate effect where noted (the tree‑canopy ordinance was adopted with an emergency clause).","At a March 5 special meeting, the Orange Village Council confirmed a part‑time firefighter/paramedic, authorized payment for police and fire radio service, adopted a tree‑canopy ordinance on third reading and approved minutes from prior meetings.
