Following subsequent inspection and testing, as well as discussions between Heiberger Paving, Inc. and Columbus Water and Power, as well as their counsel, Heiberger Paving, Inc. and the Department have decided it is in the best interest of the City to resolve their dispute by means of a settlement agreement.

A negotiated draft settlement is attached to this Ordinance.
