Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus Board of Health accepted a grant from the US Agency for Housing and Urban Development in October, 2004 for $999,968 to implement a Healthy Homes Demonstration Program. The goal of the Columbus Health Department's Healthy Homes Program is to demonstrate cost effective, sustainable, preventive measures to reduce injury and morbidity from preventable housing-related health and safety hazards associated with asthma, lead paint, and unintentional injuries in the home environment for those most at risk. Services include screening and enrollment, healthy home environmental assessments, in-home education and follow-up visits, provision of asthma trigger and safety supplies, and physical intervention services. Physical intervention services includes specialized allergen and lead dust cleaning, material installation, home repairs, and mold remediation in single and multi-family dwellings in the City of Columbus. A "Request for Proposals for Physical Intervention Services" for a two-year period was advertised and sent to thirty-two (32) prospective contractors in July, 2005. HECO Operations, dba SERVPRO of N.E. Columbus was selected as the contractor to perform all physical intervention services following the competitive bidding process. This ordinance authorizes the first year of a two-year contract for physical intervention services for the Healthy Homes Demonstration Program. A summary of the bid information is as follows:
