A public hearing will be held at the Cuyahoga Falls City Council meeting on Monday, June 3, at 6:30 p.m. at the Natatorium to discuss an ordinance approving the establishment of a new chapter to the City's General Development Code, titled “Merriman Valley Schumacher Code” along with associated text and zoning map amendments, based on the previously adopted Merriman Valley Master Plan. Residents will have an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback at the meeting.
The draft code is available at https://www.cityofcf.com/merriman-valley-schumacher-area-master-plan. The cities of Cuyahoga Falls and Akron began the master plan process in 2021 with a draft developed by Farr Associates that was designed to build upon the 2005 Northampton Area planning framework to create a more cohesive land use policy and regulations that will guide future development for both Cuyahoga Falls and Akron in the Merriman Valley-Schumacher Area.
The public is invited to attend and participate in the hearing. Written comments may be submitted to publiccomment@cityofcf.com or via regular mail at 2310 Second Street, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio 44221, Attention: Council. Comments received at least twelve (12) hours before the Council meeting will be reviewed by the President of Council and read into the record.
