Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Service to execute agreements with and to reimburse the Franklin County Engineer’s Office for work performed at the behest of the City during a County-led resurfacing project.
The Franklin County Engineer’s Office previously agreed to resurface the section of Lockbourne Road south of SR317, which lies within Columbus corporate limits, along with its annual resurfacing program. This legislation authorizes the execution of a reimbursement agreement, and any other such agreements as may be necessary, between the Department of Public Service and the Franklin County Engineer’s Office and the encumbrance and expenditure of up to $100,000.00 so as to allow Public Service to recompense the County for costs it incurred during the prosecution of that work.
2. FISCAL IMPACT
Funding in the amount of $100,000.00 is available within the Streets and Highways Bond Fund within the Department of Public Service to support this project.

3. EMERGENCY DESIGNATION
Emergency action is requested to allow the Department of Public Service to satisfy the obligation owed to the Franklin County Engineer’s Office as soon as reasonably practicable.
