I certainly cannot account for all of the Issue 2 money from the last ballot initiative that provided the money to local governments, but i can tell you how the millions that were awarded as grant money in my county were handled. The State granted the $ to the local govt based on the project. The local government then advertised and accepted bids for the project and awarded the project based on the best proposal as required by Ohio Revised Code. There were no provisions that the local govt favor one contractor over another.
