Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes the Franklin County Municipal Court Clerk to modify and increase the amount of the third year of a three year contract with Huntington National Bank for the provision of bank and credit card services, for the Clerk's office.
Ordinance 2167-2006 approved by Council on December 11, 2006 authorized the first year of a three year contract with Huntington National Bank for the provisions of bank and credit card services.
Contract Modification:
1. The amount of additional funds to be expended under this modification is $56,000.00.
2. As per agreement with Huntington National Bank the Clerk's office receives earnings credits on funds deposited with the Huntington National Bank, which are used to offset the bank service charges. These credits are based on the current federal fund rate (interest) set by the Federal Reserve. The decline in this rate caused a decrease in these earnings credit, causing a commensurate increase in the Court Clerk's banking service costs. As a result additional funds are needed to pay for the bank and credit card costs for the remaining term of the contract, ending December 31, 2009.
3. It is in the city's best interest to modify and increase the amount of the current contract with Huntington National Bank to maintain uninterrupted bank services for the Clerk's office.
