Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to modify contract EL008650 with the Franklin County Board of Health for lead-based paint testing, risk assessments, work specification preparation and final clearance testing for the Lead Safe Columbus program. The modification will increase the contract by $70,000 with funds from the HUD Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration lead grant fund. Lead Safe Columbus provides grants to qualified property owners in order to remove lead-based hazards in owner and tenant occupied units.

The Franklin County Board of Health was originally selected as a City of Columbus program contractor as a result of a competitive bidding process directed by Lead Safe Columbus. Contract compliance #31-1284784, expires February 3, 2011.

This legislation is presented in an effort to increase the productivity for creating lead safe housing units, the numbers of which will increase as we meet the targets of our lead grant and comply with the Title X Federal regulations, which took affect September 15, 2000.

Emergency action is necessary to avoid an interruption in the delivery of vital program services.

FISCAL IMPACT: $70,000 from the 2007 HUD Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration lead grant fund has been allocated for this contract modification.
