Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Service recently participated in a project administered by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) to perform partial depth pavement repairs, plane and resurface pavement with asphalt concrete; replace pavement markings and loop detectors. Project Limits extended on US-23 (Indianola Avenue) from Hudson Street to Oakland Park Avenue; resuming on US-23 (Indianola Avenue) from 0.01 miles north of Cooke Road to Morse Road; on Morse Road from Indianola Avenue to North High Street; and on North High Street from Morse Road to the Worthington corporation limit (0.82 miles north of Morse Road). (FRA-US23-15.31/17.63 PID 79359)

The procedure for this and other ODOT administered projects is to estimate the project cost and determine the local share. The local share is estimated and deposited with ODOT. After this project was bid and the bids were higher than expected, additional funding was requested from the City. The project has now been completed and ODOT has determined that the actual costs exceeded the estimates and additional funds have been requested by ODOT. In this project the actual project cost exceeded the original amount already paid to ODOT in the amount of $8,418.57. It is thus necessary to authorize the expenditure of an additional $8,418.57.

2. FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for this payment are available within the Streets and Highways G.O. Bonds fund due to cancellation of encumbrances from completed projects. The original contract amount was $221,644.00. The contract was increased by $10,976.00 in ordinance 0987-2008, and this ordinance authorizes an additional increase in the amount of $8,418.57 for a total cost to the City of $241,038.57.

3. EMERGENCY DESIGNATION
Emergency Action is requested to make payment to ODOT at the earliest possible time so this project may be closed out.
