Explanation

Background: This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director, on behalf of the City of Columbus, Public Service Department, Refuse Collection Division, to apply for and accept a $141,500.00 2005 "Recycle, Ohio!" grant from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), Division of Recycling and Litter Prevention, for continued operation of the Keep Columbus Beautiful (KCB) program in 2005. This ODNR grant represents a significant funding source for the Keep Columbus Beautiful program that operates within the Refuse Collection Division of the Public Service Department to implement recycling, litter prevention and waste reduction education and awareness activities throughout the year.

Fiscal Impact: This ordinance does not authorize the expenditure of funds. Separate legislation will be introduced at a later time to appropriate these funds and authorize their expenditure as required. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Recycling and Litter Prevention, requires a City match for the 2005 "Recycle, Ohio!" grant. City matching funds of at least $28,300.00 will be included in the pending 2005 Refuse Collection Division operating budget.
