Warren Local board selects Fanning Howey to design ARPA‑funded health clinic
Summary
The Warren Local Board of Education unanimously selected Fanning Howey Associates to design a planned health clinic funded by federal ARPA dollars, authorizing negotiation of a design agreement not to exceed $100,000 and citing qualifications‑based procurement rules under Ohio law and federal grant requirements.
The Warren Local Board of Education voted unanimously Aug. 22 to select Fanning Howey Associates, Inc. as the most qualified design professional for a planned health clinic funded with federal ARPA monies.
The superintendent recommended the firm following a qualifications‑based selection process required by Ohio law. The board resolution authorizes the superintendent and treasurer, with legal counsel, to negotiate and execute an agreement with Fanning Howey in an amount not to exceed $100,000.
The board cited Sections 153.65 through 153.71 of the Ohio Revised Code governing qualifications‑based selection of design professionals and noted compliance with federal procurement rules tied to the grant funding, specifically 2 C.F.R. §200.320(b)(2)(iv). The agenda packet states the evaluation committee ranked Fanning Howey first of two firms and that the firm submitted a proposal for $100,000.
Board members said the selection followed the advertised request for qualifications and the evaluation committee process. The board’s action does not yet commit funds beyond authorizing negotiation and execution of a contract up to the stated cap.
The resolution passed 5–0. The next steps are contract negotiation and execution; the resolution delegates signature authority to the superintendent and treasurer to complete those tasks.
