Explanation

BACKGROUND: In 2008, the Department of Health solicited vendors to provide retail sale of food and beverages to Health Department staff and the public at 240 Parsons Avenue. JCLK Enterprises, dba as Black Creek Bistro, was the only respondent interested and a lease was executed in January 2009. Ultimately, Black Creek abandoned the premises, leaving the building with no food service operation. This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management, on behalf of the Columbus Department of Health: (1) to execute a termination agreement with JCLK Enterprises d/b/a Black Creek Bistro; and (2) to enter into a lease agreement with Skyward Marketing, Inc., dba Skyward Grille & Catering to provide for the retail food services to the building. Skyward will offer these services through a combination of an exterior food cart as well as utilizing the interior food service area on the second floor of the building.

This ordinance is requested as an emergency to allow retail sale of food and beverages to be offered as soon as possible.

The Contract Compliance number for Skyward Marketing, Inc., dba Skyward Grille & Catering is 311406144, which expires on 5/27/2012.

Fiscal Impact: The lease will provide the City with rental income of $6,000.00 in the first year of the lease.

Emergency Action: Emergency action is requested to allow for the immediate provision of food services to both the public visitors and the staff at Columbus Public Health.
