Summary

Twinsburg City Council suspended rules and adopted Resolution 75-20-25 authorizing the mayor to apply for federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality funds through AMATS for a traffic signal upgrade project.

Twinsburg City Council voted 6-0 to suspend the three-reading rule and adopt Resolution 75-20-25, authorizing the mayor to apply for federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds programmed by the Akron Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (AMATS) for a traffic-signal upgrade project.

Council emphasized the need to meet an application deadline of July 18; members moved to suspend rules and adopt as an emergency. The resolution enables city staff to submit an application for CMAQ funding and pursue grant award and subsequent project phases if selected.

Council did not debate technical details of the signal upgrade during the meeting; staff will prepare the grant application materials and return with project specifications, matching-fund requirements, and a proposed implementation schedule if the application advances.
