Roachton Road rezoning

The applicant said he followed advice from the city's former planning administrator to seek C3, that the zoning aligns with the 2022 Perrysburg Tomorrow land use plan, and that C3 offers neighbors more setbacks and less lot coverage than R5 duplexes would.

A direct neighbor at 3182 Steel Case Line opposed the rezoning, citing cut-through traffic, no left-turn access, drainage concerns from sloping yards, noise and lighting, and urged the committee not to decide based on a pickleball facility that could fail.

Submitted a four-page email to all council members opposing the Roachton Road rezoning, which was distributed to the committee.

Said a six-foot fence or berm won't give his sloping-backyard home privacy, and a business with lighting, noise, and unknown hours is very different from a duplex neighbor.

Said her biggest concern is safety — she doesn't want strangers from a commercial property behind her yard where her two young boys (and one on the way) play.

Called the C3 request out of proportion for a parcel surrounded by residential properties and said the fear of the unknown — no site plan shown — is the biggest concern.

Strongly opposed: asked what problem the rezoning solves, raised median-limited access and school traffic on Roachton Road, drainage problems a berm would worsen, and property value/privacy concerns for his home bordering the parcel.
