At its regular meeting at 4:00 p.m. today, Toledo City Council is expected to vote on Ordinance 486-18 which would appropriate $856,324 from the Capital Improvement Program fund for the District Improvement Program. A vote on the ordinance was delayed at Council’s last voting session two weeks ago. The funds were appropriated previously for projects which have been or are already completed and will be available for improvement projects in the council districts where the previously funded projects occurred. Two proposed amendments are expected to be considered. One would instead designate the funding for a city parks rebranding initiative, and the other would designate it for rebuilding or resurfacing residential streets in 2019.
Other ordinances expected to be voted on include the following: 
​
  • Ordinance 508-18 which would accept $28 million from the Ohio Water Development Authority for the Basins 5 and 6 improvement project at the Collins Park Water Treatment Facility. The ordinance would also approve $100,000 for loan and administrative fees and miscellaneous costs. This project is the first of two phases and will be followed by upgrades to Basins 1 through 4 after its scheduled completion in April 2021. 

  • Ordinance 510-18 and 511-18 which would establish Tax increment Financing (TIF) districts in Overland Industrial Park and Ironville sites, respectively. The Overland TIF would be the second on that property aimed at supporting redevelopment, while the Ironville TIF would support and incentivize construction of the Cleveland Cliffs hot briquetted iron production facility.

  • Ordinace 527-18 which would approve the appointment of Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz’s nominee Patrick Kijowski to the TARTA board of trustees for a three-year term.

  • Ordinances 543-18 and 544-18 regarding collective bargaining agreements with AFSCME Local 2058 - Communication Operators Supervisors unit, and IAFF Local 3382 - Toledo Fire Chief’s Association, respectively. The term of the first would be retroactive from June 2018 to May 2021, and the other would be retroactive from January 2018 to December 2020.

A vote on Ordinance 477-18, which would approve a lease to Crestline Paving and Excavating Co., Inc. for 8.78 acres of the former Champion Spark Plug site at 750 Montrose Avenue, will be held until Council’s January 8 meeting. The annual lease amount would be $1, and the initial term of the lease would be for five years with one five-year renewal option. 

All Council meetings are held in Council Chambers on the first floor of One Government Center, located on Jackson Boulevard in downtown Toledo.
