OTTAWA – The Ottawa City Commission has asked to meet the Franklin County Commission concerning the agreement that allows the city to handlie planning and zoning matter sfor an area just outside the city limits. At Wednesday’s meeting, county administrator Lisa Johnson told commissioners that the city commissioners have asked for a special meeting on the evening of March 1 to talk about the agreement. County commissioners agreed to the meeting and asked Johnson to work out a time and location with city officials. The city is nearly finished changing county zoning classifications in the urban growth area, which is approximately a mile beyond the city limits, to city categories. The process attracted complaints from residents in the urban growth area in recent weeks.
