Summary
County Engineer Andy Conrad asked the board to approve nine highway‑related resolutions covering reconstruction force account authority, OPWC Issue 1 application authority, ODOT cooperative purchasing, guardrail and resurfacing projects, two public highway dedications, purchase of a new paver and the annual ODOT mileage certification; the board approved the package by roll call.
County Engineer Andy Conrad told the Medina County Board of Commissioners he had nine resolutions to start the year addressing road and bridge maintenance, project bidding and equipment needs. The package included authorization for use‑of‑force‑account work on roads, bridges and culverts; a resolution authorizing the board president to apply for OPWC Issue 1 funding; participation in the Ohio Department of Transportation cooperative purchasing program; plan/spec/ad for a Greenwich Road guardrail project in Wadsworth Township; bid advertising for Marks Road and Granger Road resurfacing projects for 2026; approvals to dedicate Crosspoint Drive (Montville Township) and Trinity Way (Medina Township) as public highways; authorization to purchase a model‑year paver; and the annual county highway system mileage certification for ODOT.
A commissioner moved to approve the nine resolutions as a bundle; the motion was seconded and passed on roll call with affirmative votes recorded.
The resolutions will enable the county engineer’s office to advertise projects for bid and proceed with standard procurement and certification steps. The board did not record additional deliberations or conditions attached to individual projects during the public meeting.
