Explanation

This ordinance will authorize the Director of Public Utilities to submit a grant application to the Land and Water Conservation Fund for a grant administered by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. The grant program requires a 50% local match. The total amount of the project is $140,000.00. The grant amount is $70,000.00. The Grant is for the development of a boat launch, shoreline protection and related activities for the Twin Bridges Area of Hoover Reservoir to not only provide safer access to the water but to protect the shoreline and lessen the stormwater impacts to the water quality of the City's raw water source.

A subsequent ordinance to accept the grant is required before the City will obligate its funds.

It is requested that this Ordinance be handled in an emergency manner as the approved Ordinance is required to be dated by the application deadline of February 1, 2010.
