Explanation

Background: The Director of the Department of Development entered into a Reimbursement Agreement (DL010702) with Columbus Urban Growth Corporation (CUGC) in April 2005 to oversee the design of the remaining roadways in Northland Park. At that time, the cost of design services was estimated at $450,000. Now that Home Depot will not be occupying the site, engineering documents for the Tamarack Boulevard extension need to be produced. Partially completed designs were purchased from Home Depot as a shortcut to producing final engineering documents. This unforeseen expense requires a modification in the dollars allocated to the design phase.

Fiscal Impact: $55,000 is available in the 2006 Capital Improvement Budget in the Northland and Other Acquisitions Fund and the Voted 1995, 1999, 2004 Streets and Highways Fund.

Title

To authorize the Director of Development to amend the Reimbursement Agreement for Northland Park - Phase 2 Design with Columbus Urban Growth Corporation by increasing the dollars allocated to this contract by $55,000 and by increasing the Scope of Services to include design of Tamarack Boulevard; and to authorize the expenditures of $20,000 from the Northland and Other Acquisitions Fund and $35,000 from the Voted 1995, 1999, 2004 Streets and Highways Fund. ($55,000.00)

Body

WHEREAS, the Director of the Department of Development entered into a Reimbursement Agreement (DL010702) with Columbus Urban Growth Corporation (CUGC) in April 2005 to oversee the design of Northland roadways; and

WHEREAS, development plans for the site have changed with Home Depot's decision not to occupy the site in that an additional set of engineering drawings must be produced in order to construct the extension to Tamarack Boulevard; and

WHEREAS, only partially-completed plans were purchased from Home Depot which require further design to become final engineering documents; and

WHEREAS, the additional expenses of purchasing the plans and enlisting further engineering requires additional dollars; now, therefore,
