Summary
Budget staff presented four items to the committee: a $288,535 Ohio Department of Health grant for vaccinations, a $1,000,000 OKI federal grant for Ohio River Trail safety improvements (additional grant to follow to reach ~$2.3M project), a $114,948.92 fleet proceeds transfer for vehicle replacements, and an amending ordinance correcting a capital project number; each item was placed on for passage.
Budget staff presented four agenda items to the committee and the chair put each item on for passage.
• Item 1: Dr. Doudis described a grant ordinance to apply for, accept and appropriate $288,535 from the Ohio Department of Health under the Get Vaccinated Ohio Public Health Initiative to support immunization activities for children and adolescents.
• Item 2: A $1,000,000 federal Transportation Alternatives grant, passed through the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI), was presented to support safety improvements to the Ohio River Trail through Sawyer Point and Yeatman’s Cove. Staff said an additional grant ordinance will arrive to bring the project total closer to an estimated $2.3 million before the project is bid.
• Item 3: A transfer and appropriation ordinance for Public Services Fleet Services to move $114,948.92 from sale and subrogation proceeds of obsolete vehicles to fleet replacements.
• Item 4: An amending ordinance to correct a capital project numbering error in ordinance 43-2026; all other ordinance elements remain in effect.
The chair said items 1 through 4 would be put on for passage; the meeting record does not include a recorded roll-call vote in this transcript. Council discussion on the OKI-funded trail grant included brief comments about safety and the trail’s role as a Crown project connector.
