Olmsted Falls reports summer street work, police-room refurbish and pumper delivery update
Summary
Service Director reported street paving and near-completion of a concrete program; Police Chief and Finance Director described a $20,000 refurbish of the officers' room, and Fire Chief said the new pumper should arrive in October after a titling issue was addressed.
Service Director Joe Borczuch told council his department completed paving on Orchard, Garfield and Usher roads and is finishing an in-house concrete program and planned crack sealing before leaf season. Borczuch asked council to approve Ordinance 48-2025 to send the Pineway-Mapleway drainage project to NEORSD for bidding.
Police Chief Odis Rogers reported the officers' room refurbishment (budgeted at just over $20,000) and thanked the service department for in-house work that reduced costs. He also described moving advisory speed boards in response to resident complaints. Fire Chief Matt Sheehan said delivery of the new pumper had been delayed by a titling issue between vendor and Statewide but that two firefighters visited the manufacturer in Michigan and titling issues appear to be resolved; he expects delivery in October.
Finance Director Tom Reynolds warned that using NEORSD community cost-share funds for the drainage project will affect next year's budget because those funds will be drawn down and then repopulated over subsequent years.
