Explanation
Background: As part of the Certified Local Government (CLG) agreement between the City and the State, the City Historic Preservation Officer is charged with reviewing and recommending approval of applications submitted to the Ohio Historic Preservation Office (OHPO) for funding of preservation projects located in the City of Columbus.
An application was submitted to OHPO by the grant coordinator of Ohio Dominican University to conduct a survey of history and architecture of the Teakwood Heights neighborhood in the city of Columbus. The application was prepared in cooperation with the Teakwood Heights Civic Association through a Good Neighbor Agreement. OHPO recommended approval of this $10,897.00 CLG grant application, for funding year 2010.
Based on the historic and architectural information provided in the CLG grant application, the project is recommended for approval by the City Historic Preservation Officer, identified as the CLG Grant Project Coordinator. The City will not receive the grant dollars, nor have any direct responsibility in their administration. The funding will go directly from the state to Ohio Dominican and no funds are required from the City. This ordinance is necessary to complete the grant approval process because of the CLG agreement, which identifies the City Historic Preservation Officer as the CLG Grant Project Coordinator.
Fiscal Impact: The City will not receive the grant dollars, nor have any direct responsibility in their administration. The funding will go directly from the state to Ohio Dominican University, which serves as a third party administrator. No funds are required from the City.
