This scope of <br />work will be submitted to a contractor for construction estimates. The grant application is due <br />February 15. Council will introduce the legislation to approve the grant submission at the next <br />Council meeting; it will then be assigned to committee review. It is intended to have a definitive <br />budget and scope of work for submittal by the date of the committee meeting. The first priority <br />is to address the exterior ADA ramp; the second is to address interior ADA deficiencies; the third <br />priority is other structural and property maintenance issues such as roof leaks, replacement <br />windows or caulking. A contractor will provide itemized, estimated costs for this work. We can <br />then determine what match amount can be funded. The minimum grant amount is $5000. <br />Grants over $25,000 require approval from the National Parks Service and the Ohio preservation <br />office for any modifications to the contract. Due to these requirements it may be beneficial to <br />keep the grant request amount under $25,000. With the required 40% match the total project <br />cost could be closer to $40,000.
