Explanation
Background: Since October 1, 2010 on behalf of Columbus Public Health, the City has leased approximately 3,600 square feet of medical office space located at 1681 Holt Road to house a Women, Infants and Children (WIC) clinic. The current Lease Agreement (“Lease”), most recently authorized by City Council Ordinance 3019-2025, effective November 24, 2025, expires on September 30, 2026.

Fiscal Impact: Rental funds are provided by Columbus Public Health grant funding. ($0.00)
Emergency Action: This legislation is presented as emergency measure to allow for the amendment to become effective prior to lease expiration.
