Question
should there be definitions of these terms included:
Rural Character: Small‑scale, traditional architecture; natural materials; articulated façades; pitched roofs; human‑scale proportions.

Human‑Scale Massing: Building volumes and façade elements proportioned to pedestrian perception; no large uninterrupted masses.

Articulation: Step‑backs, bays, roofline breaks, or wall‑plane changes that visually reduce building mass.

Primary Façade: Any façade facing a public street or public parking area.

Secondary Material: Material used only for trim, accents, or non‑visible façades.

Gateway Corridor: High‑visibility corridors requiring enhanced design standards (Brecksville Rd, Wheatley Rd, I‑77 approaches).

home businesses: should the number of non resident employees be limited? Home based fulfillment business (etsy) should have limited deliveries per day. Noise, odor limits ie dog breeding, hours of operation, excessive equipment noise. No outdoor storage ie landscaping equipment, earth moving equipment, trailers

SiteAdmin Feb 24 2026 at 7:21PM on page 37

clarify: deck-to-deck

Tremoran Feb 24 2026 at 12:52PM on page 9

Don't quite understand why the number of persons cannot exceed 4?

dholahan Feb 23 2026 at 6:18PM on page 46

Suggestion
Suggest 1000 ft.

dholahan Feb 22 2026 at 7:31PM on page 48

1000 feet

dholahan Feb 22 2026 at 7:29PM on page 42

Suggestion
We definitely need to discuss this. I believe we need to limit most of this.

dholahan Feb 22 2026 at 7:27PM on page 42

Question
I don't believe we allow any sexually oriented businesses. I see this as a kind of double edged sword. If we have this in place, an argument could be made that because we recognize it and regulate it, it should be allowed. The other way to look at it is if we don't allow it and don't have a code in place, it someone were to go to court and convince a judge we should allow it, we have no code for it. This could also apply to marijuana growing and outlets and gambling.

Does this include permeable pavers?

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 11:20PM on page 39

I would like to discuss this.

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 11:08PM on page 37

Should it read ...along Wheatley Road AND at intersections of public roads...?

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:55PM on page 33

We may want to allow accessary storage in CR-3?

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:50PM on page 33

We have 1 vehicle fueling station in CR1 (I think) we do not want to make it legal non-conforming (?)

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:33PM on page 30

I'd like to discuss the rationale for this.

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:25PM on page 25

I'd like to discuss the highlighted changes

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:17PM on page 16

Why does it include laundry but not dry cleaning?

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:10PM on page 10

"Outside of outdoor areas" seems awkward. Maybe change to: with an allowance for an outdoor area for dog runs and similar pet amenities.

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 10:03PM on page 9

I don't understand this. The first sentence says they are not necessarily related, the second sentence says they aren't related and the maximum number in the household is four.

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 9:54PM on page 3

I don't think we want this street to connect into the crossroads district

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 9:52PM on page 3

Add planned road extension here

sphilippbar Feb 12 2026 at 9:50PM on page 14

Should we address motorized vs nonmotorized outdoor recreational uses? i.e. limiting go carts, snow mobiles, 4-wheel vehicles from passive trails

SiteAdmin Jan 27 2026 at 8:14PM on page 47

Discussed *not* having opaque screening -- a need to leave this open and viewable

Discussed lighter landscaping requirements

SiteAdmin Jan 27 2026 at 8:10PM on page 38

Discussed adding:
- Safety Service Director

- Village Engineer
- Planning and Zoning Director

***Change the title from "safety force" to "municipal signoff required"
***Village expertise required; including but not limited to ...

SiteAdmin Jan 27 2026 at 7:51PM on page 49

Discussed removing but clarifying/adding the small-cell towers

SiteAdmin Jan 27 2026 at 7:10PM on page 3

Discussed restricting curb cuts from Wheatley Rd

SiteAdmin Jan 27 2026 at 7:09PM on page 3

P&ZC discussed removing the green required trails from the regulating plan

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:17PM on page 49

Question
what is the rationale for this separation?

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:14PM on page 46

Question
since the number of gas stations is not limited in Richfield, should the number of adult sexually oriented businesses also be limited?

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:10PM on page 41

Question
is "excessive" defined? I'd imaging if not there are a number of opinions on what constitutes excessive.

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:02PM on page 36

Question
is there some equestrian welfare standard that informs these numbers?

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:01PM on page 36

Question
couldn't chickens in smaller lots be acceptable if the size of the flock was limited? there are current examples of this practice

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 2:00PM on page 36

Question
what is the rationale for choosing 5% in this instance?

Denise Jan 25 2026 at 1:58PM on page 35

Question
what is the rationale for limiting the amount of gross floor area and for choosing 33% in this case?

Denise Jan 23 2026 at 7:40PM on page 15

"mental illnesses" would not seem to include residential treatment facilities for those with developmental disabilities?

Denise Jan 23 2026 at 7:33PM on page 9

Question
Why four? seems arbitrary?
