Summary

The Finance and Budget Committee placed three administrative items — a health department grant amendment, an airport drainage grant increase and a county donation for pedestrian wayfinding signs — on the agenda "for passage" with no final votes recorded at the meeting.

The Cincinnati City Council Finance and Budget Committee placed three items on the agenda for passage: an amendment to a health department grant ordinance, a federal airport infrastructure grant increase for drainage at Lincoln Airport, and a Hamilton County donation to reimburse the city for pedestrian wayfinding signage.

The items were read by budget staff and, with no questions raised in committee, each was “put on for passage,” a procedural step that moves the measure forward but does not itself record a final vote.

Item details:

- A grant ordinance for the Cincinnati Health Department would amend ordinance number “172-2024” to expand allowable reimbursements under a Creating Healthy Communities grant from the Ohio Department of Health to include non-personnel expenses; the amendment’s dollar amount was not specified in committee.

- A grant ordinance for the Department of Transportation and Engineering would amend ordinance number “240-2024” to increase federal Airport Infrastructure grant funding from $1,250,000 to $1,400,000, an additional $150,000 earmarked for a drainage infrastructure plan at Lincoln Airport. Budget staff said the increase is federal funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

- A donation ordinance in which Hamilton County will provide $24,252 to reimburse the city for designing, fabricating and installing 23 pedestrian wayfinding maps and directional signs in Downtown, Over-the-Rhine, Mount Adams and the West End. The wayfinding updates include directions for the Black Music Walk of Fame.

No committee debate or formal roll-call votes were recorded on these items at the meeting; each was scheduled for passage on the council agenda.
