Summary
At its Dec. 8 meeting, the Hilliard City Council unanimously approved a set of resolutions including appointments to multiple boards and commissions, a $28,000 intra-fund transfer to cover higher real-estate tax expenses, a water-tower painting contract and the purchase of a swap-load fleet vehicle.
The Hilliard City Council on Dec. 8 amended its agenda to add Resolution 25R100 and then approved a slate of resolutions covering appointments, a budget transfer, a construction contract and fleet purchases. All roll-call votes recorded in the meeting were unanimous (7–0).
Appointments: The council amended and passed Resolution 25R95 to appoint Pete Marsh to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Resolution 25R96 was amended to add and approve Jessica Bridal, Cole Antle, Arthur Steele and Samuel Blythe for full terms, and Ronald Bucci for a partial term to the Board of Zoning Appeals. Resolution 25R97 appointed a member to the Environmental Sustainability Commission. All appointment resolutions passed by roll call vote.
Budget transfer: Staff member Greg explained Resolution 25R98 authorizes transfers of unencumbered funds within the operating fund to meet projected expenditures and said the city needed to transfer about $28,000 to cover higher-than-budgeted real estate tax expenses; the council approved the transfer 7–0.
Water-tower contract: Resolution 25R99 authorizes a construction contract with Clear Creek Coatings for painting and rehabilitating the 1,000,000-gallon Orange Berry Road water tower. Staff said nine bids were received and the low bidder withdrew; Clear Creek Coatings was presented as the awardee. The meeting transcript contains inconsistent numeric details about the award and a "not-to-exceed" figure that appears garbled in the minutes; the council passed the resolution 7–0.
Fleet purchase: Resolution 25R100 authorizes the city manager to purchase a swap-load vehicle and related equipment through the State Cooperative Purchasing Program. Staff described a Freightliner chassis at $108,000 plus a Henderson Products swap-load body at $185,000 for an initial total of $294,000; council approved the purchase 7–0.
The meeting recorded no recorded 'no' votes or abstentions on the above resolutions.
