Explanation
The Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) is accepting Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) Round 20 applications for the Local Transportation Improvement Program (LTIP) and State Capital Improvement Program through September 12, 2005. OPWC requires that a designated official be authorized to submit said applications and execute project agreements for approved projects. MORPC serves in a staff support capacity to the District Three (Franklin County) Public Works Integrating Committee.
This legislation will authorize the Public Service Director to submit applications and to execute project agreements for approved projects.
Fiscal Impact: Approval of this legislation will provide an opportunity to secure funds for various projects. The approximate available funding to the District Three Public Works Integrating Committee is $19,016,000.00. Based on population, the City of Columbus' share can be 40%, more or less, of that amount. Funds for the City's share of these programs are included in the 2005 to 2010 Capital Improvement Plan. No financial participation is required at this time. City funds will be approved in the form of design contracts and/or construction contracts that will be submitted for Council's approval.
Emergency action is requested to meet the September 12, 2005, project application submittal deadline.
