Explanation
Background:
This ordinance will authorize the appropriation and transfer of $451,000.00 from the Special Income Tax Fund No. 430 to the Voted 1995 and 1999 Parks and Recreation Bond Fund No. 702, and to authorize the Director of Recreation and Parks to enter into a contract with Schooley Caldwell for professional services in conjunction with the Renovation of the Old Deaf School at 400 East Town Street, Columbus, Ohio, 43215.

This ordinance authorizes an amendment to the 2004 CIB, to accommodate the expenditure authorized by this ordinance.

The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department needs to relocate their administrative office space off of the Whittier Peninsula to allow Metro Parks to begin work on the Whittier Peninsula Park. Additionally the Department of Technology needs to relocate staff.

Schooley Caldwell was selected for this project from proposals received from four (4) consulting firms on April 22, 2005. All firms were interviewed and it was determined that Schooley Caldwell's proposal and experience far exceeded the other firms. Schooley Caldwell was selected based on experience, availability, and knowledge of project site. Project includes construction drawings, construction administration, project administration, and reimbursables.

The Contract Compliance Number for Schooley Caldwell, is #31-0972509.

Emergency action is necessary to allow work on the Whittier Peninsula Park by Metro Parks to proceed as soon as possible.

A contingency amount of $40,000.00 is being included in this project.


Fiscal Impact:
The transfer of $451,000.00 from the Special Income Tax Fund to the Voted 1995 and 1999 Parks and Recreation Bond Fund is a temporary measure until the City sells notes or bonds to fund these improvements.

$451,000.00 is budgeted in the Voted 1995 and 1999 Parks and Recreation Bond Fund to meet the financial obligation of this project.
