County reallocates architect funds for Peoples Streetscape; sidewalk design funded by ODA and TAP grants
Summary
Ross County approved amending an architect agreement for the Peoples Streetscape project to reallocate $82,800 toward sidewalk design; construction is planned for 2027 and will be funded with ODA and TAP grant dollars.
Ross County commissioners approved an amendment to an existing architect agreement on the Peoples Streetscape project to reallocate $82,800 of previously budgeted construction-administration funds toward sidewalk design.
Speaker 1 described the amendment: the amendment "allows the architect to reallocate $82,800 of the $111,000 that was originally budgeted for construction administration to design the sidewalks," and noted the sidewalks are expected to be constructed in 2027 using ODA and TAP grant funds. The motion to approve the amendment was seconded and adopted by voice vote.
The transcript records the decision to shift contract budget line items to prioritize design work ahead of the planned 2027 construction window; it identifies ODA and TAP only by acronym and does not expand those acronyms or list grant award numbers in the meeting record. Commissioners did not debate alternatives on the record; the vote moved the budget reallocation forward so design work can proceed under the architect’s amended scope.
The board also advanced other planning-and-development items later in the meeting, including contract awards and loan-fund payment requests.
