Explanation
BACKGROUND:
As a result of an extensive, city-wide, code review process conducted by Lexis-Nexis, a series of code changes were recommended in an effort to remove errors and conflicts from the Columbus City Codes. These changes are designed not to change the content or intent of the code but rather to correct simply typographical errors and conflicting cross references when present.
This ordinance authorizes the amendment of Section 215.02 of the Columbus City Code that establishes the Duties of Director and Deputy Directors of the Department of Development. The uncorrected version contained a sentence fragment in the portion of the code that designated the deputy director as serving in the absence of the director. The proposed code change adds the word 'Deputy' to clarify who would serve in the absence of the Director as well as making needed grammar corrections in the remaining sentences.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No funding is required for this legislation.
