Summary

Council authorized a design-consultant contract with Chagrin Valley Engineering for the Route 8/Highland intersection project to add turn lanes, upgrade signals and build missing sidewalks near the high school.

Council on Nov. 13 authorized the mayor to enter into a contract with Chagrin Valley Engineering LTD to prepare design drawings for the Route 8/Highland intersection project (PID 121067).

Director/engineer (speaker 9) described the scope: add turn lanes on Highland Road at the Route 8 intersection, replace the traffic signal, add a turn lane on South Bedford Road, and construct a new sidewalk gap in front of the high school. Members asked about bid procedures and federal-conflict requirements; staff said the process followed the revised ODOT/federal conflict-of-interest rules and noted only one bid came in from CVE for the owner’s-representative review.

Council approved Ordinance 78, allowing the city to move forward with consultant design and to seek bids or combine readings as advisable to match market timing.
