Reminder: OHIO to host town hall discussions focused on The Ridges

Ohio University will host town hall discussions on Feb. 21 and March 24 to share information about The Ridges Development Strategy and provide an opportunity for both the University and the Athens community to learn more and share feedback.

Ohio University has partnered with the Buckeye Hills Regional Council and Community Building Partners to create The Ridges Development Strategy . The goal of the strategy is the continued rehabilitation and preservation of the property, including the historic Kirkbride buildings.

The Ridges Development Strategy is intended to move The Ridges Framework Plan , approved in 2015, to implementation and create mixed-use space that will benefit the larger community and leverage an external investment strategy.
