Council authorizes application to OPWC to fund North Bedford Road resurfacing project
Summary
Council adopted Resolution 45 to apply to the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) for funding to repave North Bedford Road between State Route 8 and Ledge Road for the 2027 program year.
Council voted to authorize submission of an OPWC application for the North Bedford Road resurfacing project, targeting the program year 2027. Director Giladi told council the application is due Sept. 12 and would cover the segment between State Route 8 and Ledge Road. Why it matters: if the OPWC application is successful, the project would address a local roadway surface and reduce maintenance costs; staff said the city will seek OPWC funding to repay North Metro in 2027 if awarded. Council adopted Resolution 45 to permit the mayor to take necessary steps to apply for OPWC funding and to include the required legislation with the application. The administration asked for three readings so the packet could be prepared prior to the Sept. 12 application deadline. Next steps: staff will include the resolution and supporting legislative language with the OPWC application and return to council with updates if the application is accepted.
