The service committee approved Resolution 25-68 on Oct. 6, authorizing the director of public service to submit an application to participate in the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) state capital improvements grant/loan program for a multi-street resurfacing project.

Staff said the city has budgeted funds through LCATS and ODOT for initial project work and seeks OPWC funds to help cover the city match. Streets listed for potential resurfacing included West Main Street (from Fourth to 21st and from 30 Fourth to Kaufman Road), South 30th Street (from West Main Street to Harris Avenue), East Main Street (from Bridal out to Madison Avenue), and Granville Street (Central to North 21st). Staff noted Granville Street might be cut from the application depending on cost estimates.

Motion by Hauser moved the application forward; the committee passed the resolution by voice vote, 5-0. No public opposition or amendments were recorded during committee discussion.
