Public Comments

Mr. Roberto Sorgi, 5778 Londonairy Blvd., owner of American Fireworks Company, spoke in opposition of

Resolution No. 23-111. He noted legislation adopted in January 2022 regarding regulations for fireworks

storage and fireworks retail facilities, and he asked that the applicant meet Hudson's strict Code to help protect

the community. He further asked that Council extend utilities to Hudson residents and businesses before

offering to those outside the City.

Mr. Jeff Witschey, speaking on behalf of AJ Allison Enterprises, urged Council to pass Resolution No . 23-111 as

an administrative action with respect to existing law. He referenced a letter addressed to the City Solicitor. He

noted that the subject property at 6231 Chittenden Road is in Boston Heights and is not subject to Hudson's

Code. He said that Council's decision should reflect current policy, established with authorization of Hudson's

2008 Memorandum of Understanding with Boston Heights. He also referenced the City's extension of water to

Sky Zone in 2014, an adjacent property.

Mr. Chaz Hallis, 2944 Chamberlin Blvd., owner of Sky Zone, spoke in favor of Council's passage of Resolution

No. 23-111. He was thankful that the City of Hudson extended water to his business in 2014, and he was

anxious to have this new business as a neighbor, saying that Hudson City Schools would benefit from the

property taxes.

Mayor Bill Goncy, of Boston Heights, thanked Council members and staff for the opportunity to speak . He said

that in 2008, Hudson and Boston Heights entered into the MOU, agreeing to work together to attract

commercial development for the benefit of both communities. He urged Council to consider how passage of

Resolution No. 23-111 will help both communities and the Hudson School District.

Mr. Scott Allison, local small business owner, spoke in support of Resolution No. 23-111. He said he purchased

the subject property, confident that the laws in place and the precedent established with water extension to Sky

Zone would provide the ability to connect this property to Hudson's water system. He said that while he could

open the fireworks store without the water connection, it would make no sense to be forced in that direction . He

noted that he was willing to comply with Hudson's Code and thanked Council for their consideration .

Correspondence and Council Comments

Mr. Sutton said that he was contacted by residents concerned about front yard parking relating to a recent

BZBA case regarding a driveway extension and parking. He asked that staff research parking locations

permitted in Hudson and that this topic be added to a future agenda.

Mr. Banweg thanked Londonairy residents for their recent feedback regarding water extension and storm water

management. He said that such involvement helps Council to make better decisions and sometimes provides for

better options that Council hasn't already considered.

Mayor Anzevino congratulated Acme Fresh Market on their ribbon cutting ceremony in honor of the completion

of their extensive renovation project. He reviewed recent activities, including speaking at a Hudson Senior

Network meeting and visiting the installation of new RRFBs (rectangular rapid-flashing beacons), located at

non-signalized crosswalks near school buildings. He provided an update on RRFB projects and urged both

motorists and pedestrians to be alert and cautious at crosswalks. He reviewed upcoming events, including open

houses for the Western Reserve Health Center and HCTV, and the Spooky Pooch Palooza event .

Report of Manager

Mr. Sheridan reminded the public that there will not be a Council meeting on Election Day, November 7th, and

that Council hold a combined meeting and workshop on November 14th.

Appointments

Mr. Foster said that there were no appointments, but the City is currently accepting applications for the

Planning Commission. He encouraged interested residents to apply by November 17th.
