Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Division of Engineering Services has a resurfacing and safety project on Monroe Street from Secor Road to Nantucket Drive in 2019. Funding for the project has been secured through Ordinances 98-18 and 100-18 with ODOT Safety funding and TIF funding. A portion of the project is outside of the City of Toledo limits. An additional lump sum of $400,000 has been allocated by ODOT through the ODOT Urban Paving Program to pay for that section of roadway. The $400,000 amount is sufficient to cover all costs within that section. No City of Toledo funds will be used for the work outside of the city limits.
Passage of this ordinance is required to enable the City of Toledo to accept the additional funding for this project and have it in place to help pay for these expenditures.
