Summary

After a required request-for-qualifications, staff recommended and commissioners moved to retain CDC of Ohio for a three-year contract to administer CDBG, CHIP and HOME programs; the motion was seconded and voice votes of "aye" were recorded but the transcript does not record mover/second names or a formal tally.

County staff told commissioners on Feb. 10 that, following the required three-year request-for-qualifications, CDC of Ohio rose to the top as the recommended vendor to administer the county’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), CHIP and HOME grant programs for another three-year period.

Staff said CDC of Ohio has administered those grants for the city and county for many years. A commissioner asked for a motion to approve the recommendation; a second was voiced and those present responded "aye." The transcript does not record the names of the motion maker or seconder, nor a formal vote tally.

The recommendation is the product of the county’s procurement process; staff did not present any proposed county budget changes associated with the administrative contract during the meeting. No amendments to the recommendation were recorded in the transcript.
