Pataskala council approves multiple ordinances and economic-development agreement

The Pataskala City Council on an evening session adopted several ordinances on their third readings and approved a resolution authorizing an economic-development agreement.

Council moved and voted to adopt Ordinance 2025-4504 following a third reading. The council later approved Ordinance 2025-4507, an extension of the moratorium on issuance and processing of permits related to adult-use cultivation, processing and testing, and Ordinance 2025-4508 on its third reading. All three ordinances recorded affirmative roll-call votes from the members present.

Council also removed Resolution 2025-062 from postponed status and then adopted it. The resolution directs the city administrator to execute an economic-development agreement with Grove Lickin County Improvement Corporation; council members indicated the item had been postponed earlier and was ready for action.

Several other ordinances were on the agenda for second reading or further consideration; councilers discussed scheduling and amendment procedures but took no final action on those items during this meeting.

The meeting included customary procedural items such as the consent agenda, which the council approved by roll call. No further implementation milestones or effective dates were specified on the record for the adopted ordinances or the resolution.

The council returned from an executive session at the start of the meeting and then proceeded to regular reports and votes. The meeting record ends without an announced next meeting date in the transcript.
