The town hall, the latest installment of OHIO’s community discussion focusing on The Ridges Development Strategy, provided a look back at the community feedback that was received during the previous two University and community town hall events. It also shared an informational overview of the Development Strategy’s next steps for review and approval.
The presentation included high-level recommendations from The Ridges Development Advisors to use a New Community Authority (NCA) as the preferred strategy for both the adaptive rehabilitation and reuse of the historic buildings at The Ridges and to best identify opportunities for future development.
The development strategy has continued to adapt through a combination of stakeholder feedback and the evolving needs of Ohio University, Athens and the surrounding region and is in the early stages of finalization.
The Ridges Advisory Committee is scheduled to meet virtually at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, March 31.
