🚨 Public Safety 🏗️ Construction & Infrastructure Grants & Funding Physical Infrastructure

The Springfield Township Trustees meeting on November 10, 2026 included fiscal and departmental reports and consideration of several resolutions. Township expenditures for October were reported at $4,311,931.55, with receipts of $10,755,730.16 and an ending cash balance of $29,578,766.45. The board approved resolutions concerning appropriations and nuisance abatement and assessments; discussion of an appropriation adjustment included the Drug Abuse Reduction Task Force, whose budget receives federal and state grant funds and enforcement revenue. No competitive bid or new contract award was identified in the transcript.

Public-safety and operations updates included newly commissioned ambulances, with a stated cost of about $358,000 per ambulance plus a separately priced $75,000 cot—approximately $425,000 for a functional unit. The township was awarded an Ohio traffic-safety grant for 2027 supporting 700 hours of overtime patrol, though no grant amount was stated. Public Works reported completion of several road projects and an order for 1,000 tons of road salt; salt prices were stated to exceed $100 per ton, compared with just over $80 last year, and delivery had been delayed. Other updates included a $6.3 million planned investment in the College Hill library branch, discussed as a community project rather than a township procurement.
