Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus Health Department was awarded a Breast and Cervical Cancer (BCCP) grant from the Ohio Department of Health. The Ohio Department of Health sent the grant funds to the Health Department in quarterly payments, resulting in monthly interest earnings distributions by the City Auditor. This ordinance is needed to create $900 in additional appropriation on the BCCP grant, in order to facilitate the grant close-out process.

FISCAL IMPACT: The BCCP Program is partially funded by the Ohio Department of Health. The City provides the funding for 50% of one office assistant. This program does not generate any revenue or require a City match.
