Galena hears grant and wastewater project proposals for Harrison Street and WWTP; no adoption recorded
Summary
Mayor Kinnell read resolutions authorizing acceptance of an OPWC/County grant and authorizing solicitation for WWTP sludge dewatering improvements (not-to-exceed amounts of $460,000 and $500,000 were cited); the minutes record readings but no final votes on those items.
During the April 28 meeting Mayor Jeff Kinnell read several infrastructure-related resolutions that the minutes show were presented to Council but were not adopted during the session.
Resolution No. 2025-30 was read to authorize acceptance of grant funding from the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) and Delaware County for Harrison Street improvements and to authorize the Village Administrator to solicit design-build proposals and enter into a contract not to exceed $460,000. The minutes record the reading only; no motion or vote on adoption is recorded.
Resolution No. 2025-31 was read to authorize solicitation of proposals and selection of the best qualified proposer for wastewater treatment plant sludge dewatering capital improvements in excess of the Administrator's authority not to exceed $500,000 and declaring an emergency. The minutes record the reading but do not record the adoption vote or further action.
Council also considered an intergovernmental agreement (Resolution No. 2025-33) among Sunbury, Galena and Berkshire; a motion to suspend second and third readings failed 4-Yes, 2-No.
The readings put both the Harrison Street and WWTP items on the record; the minutes show these items will return for further action, with solicitation and procurement steps to follow if Council later authorizes them.
