Discuss Ag
Security Zone and Farmland Preservation |
The Board discussed
the statewide Agricultural Easement Purchase Program (AEPP), a
state program that preserves farmland though the purchase of
permanent agricultural easements and is funded by the Clean Ohio
Fund. The current sponsor for this program in Fulton County is
the Black Swamp Conservancy. Although the Board believes that
said sponsor is doing well, they feel it would be a better for
the County to have local control over the easements and would
allow better planning of the designated areas. The
Commissioners feel that local control would also allow greater
opportunities and availability for this program to the residents
of Fulton County. The Board stated that the Regional Planning
Dept. and the County’s Soil and Water Conservation District
would be best to administer this program. |

Jeff Kramer, R.D.
Zande – to discuss Airport Grants |
Pursuant to the

from R.D. Zande and Associates was present to address issues
regarding FAA grants that are to be followed through with; to
ensure that the County Airport may continue to receive FAA
funds; and to properly administer the funds the County Airport
currently has. Mr. Kramer advised that they typically work with
the airport authorities, which usually does not have any
personnel, and that no changes are anticipated as far as the
administration of said grants. It was decided that County
Administrator Vond Hall shall now be the contact person for FAA
operations and that Mr. Hall will continue to brief the
Commissioners on any activities concerning this issue.
The Commissioners
signed documents concerning pending Federal reimbursements and
State vouchers that are to be submitted to ODOT, involving
taxiways and paving projects. Any Contracts are to be forwarded
to the County Prosecuting Attorney.
A new project
involving the T-Hangar Taxilane Rehabilitation and drainage

project based upon the bids that are received. |
