BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the City Auditor to establish auditor certificates for supplies, materials, Central Ohio Transportation Authority CNG payments, fuel and equipment for the Department of Finance, Fleet Management Division. These auditor certificates will be funded from the Fleet Management Operating Budget. This ordinance also authorizes the transfer of $700,000.00 between object classes within the Fleet Management Operating Budget to ensure sufficient appropriation within the correct object of expense. These auditor certificates will be used to ensure smooth operations through the remainder of the year. Contracts will be entered into in compliance with the procurement provisions of the Columbus City Codes Chapter 329.
Emergency action is necessary so that auditor certificates can be established quickly to ensure that necessary parts, equipment, and fuel can be procured for the operations of Fleet Management which runs twenty four hours a day, every day of the year. These funds are necessary to cover expenses for the remainder of the 2023 fiscal year and ensure these services continue without interruption.
