“Zoning code violations aren’t just technicalities—they’re a breach of the balance between progress and community integrity. We expect them to follow the rules like any good community partner would do,” said Trotwood Mayor Yvette F. Page.

The city may pursue a civil suit against the property owners, Friendship SNF Property Holdings, LLC, which would stop the prohibited use of the property by court order.
