Explanation
Background: Ordinance No. 0468-2007 was passed by Columbus City Council on May 07, 2007. This Ordinance authorized the Public Utilities Director to enter into a professional engineering agreement for the Parklane Avenue Stormwater System Improvements Project.
Purchase Order Number EL007071 was established with P.B. America, Inc. The purchase order was mistakenly cancelled although services for this project under the professional engineering agreement are not complete.
Therefore, the Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drainage needs to re-establish funds in the amount of $90,802.10 for expenditures covered by the original ordinance and agreement for this project.
Fiscal Impact: There is sufficient cash and authority for this expenditure.
