City of Streetsboro Council Meeting June 22, 2026
Published: Jun 22, 2026
Cemetery Lot Fees Adjusted; Swimming Pool Regulations Amended
The council considered ordinances related to cemetery lot fees and swimming pool regulations. For cemetery lots, amendments were made to clarify resident vs. non-resident fees, establishing that residency must be current at the time of purchase. The resident fee was adjusted from $500 to $400, while the non-resident fee remains $700. The definition of residency was clarified to ensure individuals must live within the city limits to qualify for the lower fee. For swimming pools, the ordinance amended related code sections and repealed others concerning swimming pools and hot tubs, with specific details on these changes discussed in relation to residents and non-residents.
Kimble Waste Collection Contract Extended for One Year
The council approved extending the contract with Kimble for residential solid waste and recycling collection services for one additional year. The extension includes a slight price increase of 47 cents per month, amounting to approximately $140 per quarter. All other terms of the existing contract remain the same. The decision to extend, rather than re-bid the contract, was discussed, with the understanding that a new bidding process will be necessary next year after this one-year extension. The renewal ensures continuity of services.
Fire Department SCBA Mask Fit Tester Machine Purchase Approved
The council discussed and approved authorizing the mayor to enter into a contract, without competitive bidding, with OD for the purchase of a new fit tester machine for SCBA masks. This machine is essential for the annual fit testing required for fire department personnel. The cost of the machine is $19,114 and will be shared among the Streetsboro, Twinsburg, and Hudson fire departments. The ordinance enabling this purchase was passed unanimously.
May 2026 Financial Report Shows Net Positive Cash Flow Despite Increased Expenses
The finance committee reviewed the monthly financial report for May 2026. Key discussions included a three-pay month impacting expenses, bond interest payments, and a net positive cash flow across all funds. The report detailed revenue and expense allocations for the general fund and overall city funds, comparing them to the previous year. Major cash outflows included payments for capital projects like gas pumps and road work, as well as significant interest payments on city bonds. Cash inflows were primarily from income tax, including a notable refund from the RITA system. A decrease in net profit from income tax was discussed, attributed to factors like prior year prepayments and changes in business expensing due to federal legislation. Projections for the 2027 tax budget were consequently lowered. The report also included a tax-to-benefits ratio analysis for the 101 fund. Detailed breakdowns of funds were provided, and council members inquired about state net profit collections.
City Departments Report on Diverse Activities: Finance, Parks, Public Safety, and Development Updates
The council received updates from various city departments. The Parks Department reported success with a senior membership cookout attended by 90 seniors and positive feedback on the first food truck night, despite one truck missing. The Director of Law & Code Enforcement announced the transfer of $42,000 from the demolition account to the senior/disabled lawn care account to cover expenses until August. The former Happy Moose property was sold at a sheriff's sale for nearly $1.6 million to an Illinois-based buyer, potentially representing a local company focused on high-skilled medical jobs. The Planning Commission passed two text amendments to the zoning code and advanced the construction agreement for the Villas at Boulder Creek subdivision. Engineering provided updates on State Route 1443 phase three traffic changes and the seasonal road culvert replacement project, which is out to bid. The Service Department began its asphalt patching program and completed concrete work on Shady Lake. The Police Department launched an updated solicitors ordinance with 'do not knock' stickers, receiving significant online engagement. The Fire Department reported activity including responding to fires, training, and participating in various safety events and drills. Human Resources had no new reports. The auto department commended an employee for their work on a property cleanup.
