Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
On August 29, 2008, the City entered into the Columbus Coated Fabrics Economic Development Agreement (EDA) with Wagenbrenner Development, Inc. to address the redevelopment of the site with housing, green space and improved roadways.

On July 17, 2009, the City entered into the Columbus Coated Fabrics Design Agreement with Wagenbrenner Development, Inc. for the design of public roadway and infrastructure improvements on and around the site.

On November 9, 2010, the City entered into the Columbus Coated Fabrics Construction Guaranteed Maximum Reimbursement Agreement (GMRA) for the construction of public roadway and infrastructure improvements on and around the site.

The Division of Power and Water(Power) will be inspecting this work in accordance with the MELP Relocation Plan (Weinland Park) dated February 11, 2011.
