Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Gahanna public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Garage variance at 116 Oklahoma Avenue
A homeowner in the Creekside Residential district wants permission to build a garage that doesn't meet the current standards. The variance hearing will show whether the Commission finds a practical hardship justifying the exception.
Liquor permit applications — no hearing requested
The state's annual renewal of local liquor permits got no pushback from council or police, clearing the way for renewals including six pending applications.
Johnstown Road trailhead parking lot condition
The deteriorating parking lot at the Stonybrook Church trailhead on Route 62 serves mostly city park users. McGregor asked staff to explore a cross-easement deal with the church, similar to Sunpoint Park.
Pickleball court adequacy
Residents have been asking for more courts. The national standard is one court per 6,000 residents and Gahanna meets it, with four dedicated courts plus marked tennis courts at Hannah Park; trails top the priority list instead.
