County staff to sign letters backing RTA electric‑bus grant and Milliken Road TRAC construction request

May 27, 2025

Staff told commissioners the Butler County RTA plans to apply for a regional grant to replace five passenger buses with electric vehicles, and Butler County TID requested a county letter supporting a $10 million TRAC request for the Milliken Road interchange construction phase (TRAC had previously funded roughly $12 million for right‑of‑way).

The County Administrator reported two separate transportation requests for commissioner consideration. For Butler County RTA, staff said the agency will apply to the Ohio‑Kentucky‑Indiana Regional Council of Governments for funds to replace five large passenger buses (25–32 seats) with electric vehicles as part of an air‑quality and congestion mitigation program.
