Summary
The Village of Enon Council unanimously adopted Resolution #2026-04 authorizing an application to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Nature Works grant program to support a proposed soccer field project; grant amount and timeline were not specified.
The Village of Enon Council unanimously adopted Resolution #2026-04 on June 23 authorizing an application to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Nature Works grant program to support a proposed soccer field project.
Council member Beair, reporting for the Parks Committee, outlined the Soccer Field Project and the committee’s intent to seek Nature Works funding. Council member Whitacre moved to suspend the three-reading rule for the resolution; Beair seconded and the motion passed with Council members Leist, Sweet, Beair, Whitacre and Davoli voting yes. Council member Leist then moved to adopt Resolution #2026-04; Council member Beair seconded and the adoption passed by the same unanimous vote.
The resolution authorizes staff to submit the Nature Works grant application; the meeting minutes do not specify a grant amount, match requirement or project timeline. The council did not record further details about required local matching funds or a construction schedule during the meeting.
If ODNR awards the grant, the council would typically need to accept the award at a subsequent meeting and authorize any local match or contract work. The minutes include no firm timeline for submission or expected decision dates.
The Parks Committee presentation and the council’s votes took place during the regular meeting; no public comments were recorded on the item.
