The service committee approved a resolution Aug. 4 to participate with the Ohio Department of Transportation on State Route 13 (Mount Vernon Road) improvements; the city's local share was listed as $495,792.95 and staff said ODOT requires action by Aug. 27 for the agency's bidding schedule.
The service committee voted to send a resolution to council approving city participation with the Ohio Department of Transportation on a roadway improvement project on State Route 13 (Mount Vernon Road) from West Channel Street to the north corporation limit.
Staff told the committee the city’s local share on the project is $495,792.95. The resolution was presented as the standard final action ODOT requires; staff said ODOT’s schedule requires municipal legislation by Aug. 27 to meet the agency bidding timeline. Committee discussion indicated the project is expected to be bid this fall with construction next spring.
Committee members approved sending the resolution forward; the item passed in committee with no recorded opposition. Committee questions confirmed that the Mount Vernon Road project is north of the sewer‑separation work discussed elsewhere in the meeting.
The resolution was identified by staff as standard ODOT participation paperwork; staff did not present a detailed funding breakdown or identify specific fund lines in the committee remarks. The committee forwarded the resolution to the full council for final approval.
