East Canton moves forward on spot paving, speed tables and municipal signage costs
Summary
Councilors discussed and approved spot repairs, reviewed a $28,227 total for speed-table project elements, confirmed municipal signage not to exceed $648, and reviewed the capital street fund balance.
The Village of East Canton council reviewed several public-works items Wednesday, approving spot paving and municipal signage and receiving an update on the speed-table project and street fund spending.
The service department described ongoing spot repairs across the village — including intersections and targeted street segments such as Church Street and Noble — and noted crews have completed several previously reported repairs. The department told the council the spot work is funded from the village’s capital street fund (identified in discussion as the 2011 street capital outlay line). Staff said $130,000 was appropriated for the fund this year and reported the village had spent about 44% of that allocation to date.
Councilors had asked for a full estimate for the speed-table project, including signage. Staff reported the combined total for the speed-table project and associated municipal signage was $28,227. For the municipal signs specifically, the council approved a not-to-exceed amount of $648 to complete sign installation.
Council members also approved routine fiscal items during the meeting: a motion to approve invoices (stated in the record as $112,007.14) and a motion to approve payroll for the amount reported in the packet. Roll-call votes recorded Councilor Collins, Councilor Blue, Councilor Compass and Councilor Dan voting in the affirmative during the roll call recorded for payroll and invoices.
Other operational details discussed included ordering 200 tons of road salt (staff said 200 tons had been allocated and the village expects delivery at negotiated pricing) and that major paving and concrete work will reduce spending later in the season once those projects are complete. Staff said the payment for a service truck also comes from the same capital street fund.
Next steps: the service department will proceed with the approved spot repairs and signage purchases and will return updates as projects progress.
