Law and Ordinance Committee for 3/9/2026

The City of Troy, Ohio Law and Ordinance Committee met on March 9, 2026, to discuss the approval and expansion of the Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area (DORA) application. The committee recommended that the city council confirm the continued operation of the DORA and approve temporary expansions of the DORA boundaries for specific events, contingent on property owner permission and council authorization. Proposed additions include areas around the stadium, senior center, and county courthouse plaza, especially considering upcoming street and plaza construction projects. The committee also discussed the use of temporary liquor permits for events outside the DORA boundaries and confirmed that no emergency legislation was required. The committee voted to move forward with the recommendations, subject to legal review of agreements related to the stadium and courthouse areas.
