City Of Monroe

The City of Monroe, Ohio, a U.S. local government entity, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient and subrecipient under transportation safety and emergency management programs, without prime contracting authority. The municipality operates through its Police and Fire Department Division and competes exclusively under federal grant mechanisms rather than federal procurement contracts.

City of Monroe's federal footprint centers on two grantor agencies. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has awarded the city three grants totaling $462,400 in combined value under the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) planning program (CFDA 20.939), with the most recent prime grant of $462,400 awarded on September 3, 2025, carrying a completion date of September 3, 2029. This SS4A planning grant supports the city's Police and Fire Department in developing a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan and conducting data analysis and stakeholder engagement to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries. The Federal Emergency Management Agency accounts for two awards. The city also receives sub-grant funding through the Ohio Department of Transportation, serving as subrecipient on two awards related to pedestrian facilities — one sub-award dated June 17, 2024, and another dated September 3, 2026.

Activity has been episodic over the past twelve years: one award in 2014, one in 2016, then a two-year gap before resuming with single awards in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $2.2 million. The city operates as prime recipient in roughly 60% of awards and as subrecipient in 40%, with FHWA and FEMA comprising the totality of federal grant customers. As a local government entity lacking federal contracting authority, City of Monroe does not appear on federal procurement vehicles (GWACs, IDIQs, BPAs, or schedules) and does not function as a prime contractor or commercial subcontractor to federal contractors.
