MORAINE, Ohio April 9, 2026 The Moraine City Council unanimously approved several agenda items Tuesday, adopting new language for the city s dog-control code, awarding a contract for the 2026 sidewalks and curb-ramps program, and instructing the clerk not to file objections to routine liquor-license renewals.
Ordinance 2229-26: dangerous/nuisance/vicious dogs
Council conducted the second reading of Ordinance 2229-26, which repeals and amends local code language regarding dangerous, nuisance and vicious dogs to align the municipal code with Ohio Revised Code section 955. During the reading, Council member Miller summarized the purpose: "This ordinance repeals and amends language regarding dangerous, nuisance, and vicious dogs." The council then voted to adopt the ordinance by roll call; all members present voted yes.
Resolution 8230-26: 2026 Sidewalks and Curb Ramps contract award
Council considered Resolution 8230-26 accepting the bid of NAYROW Construction, Inc., doing business as NAYROW Paving, for the city s 2026 Sidewalks and Curb Ramps program. The accepted base bid was announced as $180,900.75, and council approved a 10% contingency of $18,090.08, for a total authorization of $198,990.83. The resolution passed on a roll-call vote with all members present voting in favor.
Liquor-license renewals
Under a voice-item review required annually by the Division of Liquor Control, council considered whether to object to renewals for establishments holding class C and D permits. The police chief, fire department and law director indicated no objections. Council voted to direct the clerk not to file objections and not to request hearings.

Why it matters: The ordinance brings local animal-control code into alignment with state statute, which may affect enforcement and notice provisions. The sidewalk and curb-ramps contract represents a near-$199,000 capital authorization for pedestrian infrastructure, and the clerk's decision not to object to liquor-license renewals keeps the standard renewal process in place absent complaints.
