Parma Heights council adopts resolution to join ODOT cooperative purchasing for 2021–2022 winter season
Summary
Council adopted Resolution No. 2021‑4 authorizing the Director of Public Service to participate in the Ohio Department of Transportation cooperative purchasing program for the 2021–2022 winter season; Council suspended rules for a single emergency reading before adoption.
Council on April 12 adopted Resolution No. 2021‑4 authorizing the Director of Public Service to participate in the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) cooperative purchasing program for the 2021–2022 winter season.
Clerk Neva Neel read the resolution title aloud. Councilman Stavole moved to read the resolution by title only; Councilwoman Everett seconded. Council also moved to suspend the usual rules to allow a single, emergency reading and then voted to adopt the resolution. The motion and the suspension passed with all members present voting aye (Aye: Haase, Stavole, Walsh, Danczak, Everett, Gallo and Rounds).
The resolution authorizes city staff — specifically the Director of Public Service — to participate in ODOT’s cooperative purchasing program for winter supplies and services (e.g., salt and other winter maintenance materials) for the 2021–2022 season. The reading recorded at the meeting does not specify contract amounts or vendors; any contracts executed through the cooperative purchasing program will follow procurement rules and be brought to Council as required.
Next steps: Director of Public Service may use the cooperative purchasing mechanism for winter needs; any implementing contracts or expenditures will be subject to the city’s procurement and reporting requirements.
