Body

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:

The Division of Engineering and Construction Management has been working closely with ODOT and TMACOG to secure grant funding for a safety project on Broadway.  This amount is a grant and is assigned to the project as follows:

 

An additional $234,119 has been allocated by ODOT through TMACOG for a road project on Broadway Street through an amendment; this funding will be added to the Broadway reconstruction project grant that was previously awarded and accepted through Ordinances 580-21 and 576-23. This amendment will bring the total grant amount to $3,075,304.  Matching funds will be provided through the Division of Engineering and Construction Management Matches and Planning budget for this project which is scheduled for construction in 2024.

 

Passage of this ordinance is required to enable the City of Toledo to accept outside funding for this project and have it in place to help pay for these expenditures.
