Summary

Council approved a resolution endorsing the merger plan for the Miami Valley Communications Council, which will restructure the organization and create a new advisory board framework.

The Moraine City Council voted May 22 to approve a merger plan for the Miami Valley Communications Council, endorsing a restructuring effort officials said is intended to support MVCC’s long-term sustainability.

The resolution — recorded in the meeting as “Resolution 815,425” — approves a merger plan that preserves existing advisory groups, including the COG, MVCC board, GovTech and the Tactical Crime Suppression Unit, in advisory roles to a new MVTCG board. Council voted by roll call; all members present voted yes.

According to the presentation read into the record, the merger is designed to allow MVCC to continue providing collaborative services to Moraine and other member jurisdictions while consolidating governance into a new body. The resolution approved the plan; specific operational changes, budgets or implementation timelines were not detailed in the council discussion recorded at the meeting.

Councilmembers voting yes were Mr. Dougherty, Ms. Witt, Ms. Marcus, Mr. Miller, Mr. Brichette and Mayor Murphy. The resolution does not itself enact budgetary commitments; it adopts the merger plan so that member jurisdictions may proceed with the agreed restructuring steps.
