Explanation
This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department to modify the existing contract with Oxbow River & Stream Restoration, Inc. for the restoration of Clover Groff Run. The modification is due to additional data that was required by One Stop Shop for new topographic standards. Also additional easement survey work was also requested by the City Attorney’s Real Estate Division. OxBow Rivers and Streams are completing final plans for Clover Groff Stream Restoration, Phase 3, Broad Street to Hellbranch Run. This project will restore over 4500’ of Clover Groff Ditch to a full functioning stream, with floodplain and native plantings. The project is receiving $1.7 million in funding from the Water Resource Restoration Sponsorship Program of the Ohio EPA. Separate legislation will be submitted in 2016 to authorize a construction contract for the stream restoration.

The modification for this project is $7,435.00 and will increase the original contract amount of $19,600.00 to $27,035.00.
