BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to enter into a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contract with Campus Partners for Community Urban Redevelopment (Campus Partners) to remove asbestos and to undertake the demolition of buildings at the former Columbus Coated Fabrics site at East Fifth Avenue and Grant Avenue in Columbus (the site). The GMP contract will be in an amount not to exceed $1.6 million funded under the City's November 30, 2006, municipal bond sale.
