Summary
The Lucas County Board of Commissioners approved contracts to acquire parcels needed for roundabouts at Monclova Road and Wilkins Road, including two parcels from Metro Parks and purchases from Monclova Township and Anthony Wayne Schools.
The Lucas County Board of Commissioners on June 2 approved contracts to acquire property for roundabout projects at Monclova Road and Wilkins Road.
Deputy County Administrator Mr. Hyerman introduced the item and County Engineer Mr. Panuski told commissioners the board was being asked to approve maintenance of contracts for sale and purchase of real property needed for the Monclova Road and Wilkins Road Roundabout Project. Mr. Panuski said two parcels from Metro Parks total $1,280 and additional purchases from Monclova Township and Anthony Wayne Schools total $67,100.
The request drew no questions from commissioners. A motion to approve the contracts was made on the record; the clerk recorded three affirmative roll-call votes from Commissioner Ciebeck, Commissioner Gerken and Commissioner Lopez, and the action was approved.
The purchases are intended to secure right-of-way for roundabouts that staff said will take place next year. The board did not discuss construction contracts, a project schedule or funding sources during the item, and no dollar amounts beyond the property totals cited above were provided on the record.
The meeting moved on after the vote; commissioners also offered brief remarks inviting local Boy Scouts in attendance to ask the county engineer about roundabouts.
