Transportation committee reviews sewer reimbursement agreement with county and consents to ODOT sign upgrades
Summary
Staff explained a cooperative agreement to have the county reimburse the city for sanitary‑sewer force main work tied to a roundabout project (not to exceed $316,738.90). The committee also read in a resolution consenting to ODOT sign replacements on SR‑241 and agreed to pay the aesthetic differential (estimated $1,000–$2,000); both items were held for further details and second reading.
The Transportation, Connectivity and Stormwater Committee discussed two items on second reading.
Staff described Resolution 2024‑R40, a cooperative intergovernmental agreement with Summit County to authorize a reimbursement to the city for sanitary sewer force main work performed as part of the Butler Road/Corporate Woods roundabout project. Director Pickett said the county’s force main is old and undersized; during roundabout construction the city replaced sections and the county has drafted an agreement to pay the city for the pipe and installation. The amount in the resolution was listed as not to exceed $316,738.90. The committee took time and will consider second reading at the regular meeting.
Pickett also read in Resolution 2024‑R41, consenting to ODOT sign replacements on State Route 241 and agreeing to pay the incremental cost to use the city’s black background and black powder‑coated posts. He estimated the differential at roughly $1,000–$2,000, and the committee asked staff to amend the legislation to request second‑reading passage when finances are available.
No final votes were taken; the committee agreed staff will provide a precise county reimbursement figure and the exact ODOT differential cost before second reading.
