Committee approves crack-sealing contract, insurance renewal and codification supplement
Summary
Council voted to prepare legislation or accept routine items: awarded the 2026 crack-sealing contract to Scodela Construction Inc. with a $132,300 bid (total $145,530 with contingency), requested legislation for a property and liability insurance renewal priced at $282,005.93, and approved codification pages to bring ordinances current.
The Committee of the Whole approved motions to move several routine items forward to formal legislation or acceptance.
Streets maintenance: Staff recommended awarding the 2026 crack-sealing program to Scodela Construction Incorporated at a low bid of $132,300 with a 10% contingency of $13,230 for a total of $145,530. Council members voted to proceed with preparing the contract/legislation.
Insurance: Staff presented the city—s property and liability renewal through the Public Entities Pool of Ohio (PEP). The renewal premium was $282,005.93, a roughly 7% increase over the prior year; staff asked that legislation be prepared to accept the proposal.
Codification supplement: The clerk requested emergency legislation to replace pages in the codified ordinances to make local law current through April 9, 2026 (and state law through December 31, 2025). Council moved to prepare that legislation.
Each item was the subject of a procedural motion to prepare legislation or accept a renewal; the motions carried on roll call and staff will return formal legislation or contract documents for council approval.
