Career Highlights
  • Representation of Delhi Township

    Dinsmore represents Delhi Township, Ohio, and handled the redevelopment of a vacated shopping center into a 15 acre mixed-use development known as Delhi Towne Square, which includes Delhi Athletic Club, a cultural arts center and event center, preschool rooms for Oak Hills School District, as well as a 180-unit apartment complex. We successfully completed a subdivision of the site, negotiated a 100-year ground lease with the multi-family apartment developer, as well as a lease with Oak Hills School District for classroom space on the site.  We also handled the public financing aspects of this project.

  • Representation of the Village of Silverton

    We represent the Village of Silverton and handled an innovative statutory land swap transaction with the Cincinnati City School District, whereby the school district obtained a new site for redevelopment of a Montessori school and the Village obtained a 10 acre parcel of land. We further represented Silverton in the assemblage of certain adjacent parcels, thereby creating an attractive site for redevelopment. Subsequently, we continued our representation of the Village in negotiating the essential contract and easement agreements allowing for the development of approximately 200 luxury apartments. We handled all aspects of the transaction, including site development agreements and public financing of the project. This project serves as a gateway project for the Village of Silverton, Ohio. Additionally, we represented the Village in its acquisition of its new city hall and redevelopment of the former city hall into a brew pub.
