Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the encumbrance and expenditure of $200,000.00 for the purpose of reimbursing OhioHealth Corporation (“OhioHealth”) for design costs incurred relative to various public infrastructure improvements completed in the vicinity of S.R. 315 and North Broadway (the “Projects”).
Ordinance 2894-2017 authorized the Director of Public Service to enter into reimbursement agreements with OhioHealth, whereby the City agreed to reimburse OhioHealth up to $3,877,000.00 for costs associated with the design and construction of the Projects. Ordinance 1454-2018 authorized the Director of Public Service to modify a design reimbursement agreement with OhioHealth to facilitate additional work related to Stream Corridor Protection Zone (SCPZ) requirements and replacing an existing 20-inch water main along Olentangy River Road between Slyh Run and McConnell Drive.

The initial estimate to complete the additional work was $413,970.00. However, the actual costs incurred by OhioHealth relative to the completion of the necessary stream mitigation plans exceeded the funds previously appropriated for that purpose, necessitating the execution of a second modification between the parties, which was authorized pursuant to Ordinance 2923-2019.

Due to an administrative error, ACPO003225, the Auditor’s Certificate established under Ordinance 1454-2018, was cancelled before the outstanding obligation to OhioHealth was satisfied. The legislation seeks to restore a portion of that funding to enable the City to do so.
