Purchase of Greenhills Community Church

The Issue

The Greenhills Community Church Presbyterian, located at the corner of Winton and Cromwell Roads, is an iconic part of our community's history and serves as a potent symbol of our collective identity in Greenhills, OH 45218. This historic building has served the community faithfully for generations, fostering a sense of belonging and community spirit. It is now imperative for the Village of Greenhills to take proactive steps to ensure the preservation of this vital landmark by purchasing it for use as administrative offices and a community center. 

Transforming the Greenhills Community Church into a multifunctional space for administrative purposes and as a community center will address several ongoing needs in our village. It will provide the much-needed administrative space to conduct village affairs more efficiently, and a dedicated area for the residents to engage in various community, educational, recreational and social activities. Churches historically serve as gathering places, and this historic property is perfectly situated to continue that legacy in a non-secular capacity, thus enriching our residents' quality of life.

Purchasing this property aligns with strategic objectives to preserve and repurpose landmarks while also fostering community engagement in Greenhills. By owning the property, the village has an opportunity to respect its historical roots and provide modern conveniences to its residents.

We urge the Village Council to consider the positive social, cultural, and economic impacts that purchasing and repurposing this property will bring to Greenhills. This strategic acquisition will not only preserve a piece of our history but also help meet contemporary needs, creating a more cohesive and connected community. A feasibility study is necessary to establish costs of renovation and adjustment of purchase pricing. Your support in signing this petition can drive the momentum needed to achieve this significant milestone for our village. Join us in preserving our heritage and enhancing the lives of Greenhills residents.
