Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Department, Fleet Management Division, to make various expenditures for labor, materials, equipment, and services in conjunction with various Fleet capital projects that are, at times, unplanned but necessary to keep the main facility at Groves Road operational as well as satellite facilities and fueling sites. Work may include fuel tank management, and certain construction and renovation projects at Fleet facilities, such as electrical, HVAC, and plumbing, and such other capital assets as deemed necessary by the Finance & Management Director. Work can also be of an emergency nature such as mechanical failure at a fueling station, a major fuel tank malfunction, and/or operational renovations or repairs needed at Fleet Management facilities. All such items are capital eligible and must be addressed quickly. Establishing this Auditor Certificate enables the Fleet Management Division to react and solve problems quickly and efficiently. All work will be done in accordance with the competitive bidding provisions of the Columbus City Codes. Funding for these expenditures is available within the Finance and Management Division - Fleet Management Fund 513.
Emergency action is requested so that Fleet Management can address emergency repairs and/or renovations to capital assets. This is of special consideration given the need for Fleet Management to assess, repair and remediate the City's fifty-two (52) fuel site locations.
Fiscal Impact: This legislation authorizes an expenditure of $200,000.00, within the Fleet Management Capital Fund 513.
