Morrow County commissioners approve FAA airport pavement grant and multiple appropriations
Summary
The Morrow County Board of Commissioners on July 20 approved a Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program grant for a pavement‑preservation project at Morrow County Airport and signed off on several budget appropriations, including server refurbishments and a prosecutor fund allocation.
The Morrow County Board of Commissioners on July 20 approved a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program grant for a pavement‑preservation project at Morrow County Airport and adopted multiple budget appropriations for county operations.
Administrator Amy said the AIP-funded work covers a crack‑sleeve pavement preservation project and that the federal share leaves roughly a 5 percent local match ‘‘so there’s no extra contribution’’ required from the county. The board approved the grant and related authorization during the morning session.
The board also approved several finance items on the consent agenda. The clerk reported a refund check from Columbia Gas and moved appropriations into the general fund to cover board of elections needs. Commissioners approved an appropriation for the prosecutor fund and two capital equipment transfers to support a refurbished server: $28,921.54 into the capital equipment fund and $28,009.21 from the general fund equipment line.
