Warren County agrees to sign letter supporting City of Lebanon’s SS4A grant application
Summary
The board agreed to sign a template letter supporting the City of Lebanon’s application for the U.S. Department of Transportation Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) implementation grant; the city seeks just over $5 million with an approximate 20% local match (~$1.3 million).
Warren County commissioners agreed to sign a letter of support for the City of Lebanon’s application to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) implementation grant program.
County staff described the City of Lebanon’s SS4A application as seeking just over $5 million with a required 20% local match of about $1.3 million. Project elements referenced in the briefing include a proposed roundabout near Miller Road/State Route 42 and the bypass south of Walmart, additional lane striping and signalization improvements, and other engineering measures the city says would calm traffic and improve safety along the 48 Bypass and nearby corridors.
Commissioners indicated they would sign a template letter of support. Staff clarified the county would not be providing grant-matching funds; the county’s action is to sign a recommendation letter in support of Lebanon’s application. Commissioners said Ohio is a donor state for transportation funds and favored getting federal funds returned to the region.
No formal resolution or county financial commitment was recorded; the board’s action was to sign and submit a support letter for the city’s application.
