Explanation

BACKGROUND: American Addition, located in the Columbus Public School District, is contained within the boundaries of Joyce Avenue to the west, Petrel and Helena Alleys to the east, the alley north of 12th Avenue to the north and Dewey and Dolphin Alleys to the south. Central Ohio Housing Development Organization (COHDO) plans to redevelop the American Addition Neighborhood. The redevelopment will include construction of up to 120 new homes, renovation of existing homes, and new streets and infrastructure to replace the inadequate system now in place.

This legislation repeals Ordinance 1207-2008, passed July 17, 2008 and Ordinance 0561-2010, passed May 6, 2010 which authorized the Directors of Public Service and Development to enter into a development agreement with COHDO for reimbursement of infrastructure construction. Over the past two years, changes have been made in the scope of work; foremost of which is that the City will now undertake the construction of the public infrastructure improvements while COHDO will undertake planning and design activities. Additionally, inclusion of green elements in the infrastructure design requires additional planning activities not envisioned by the original pieces of legislation. It is now necessary to reauthorize the Director of Development or other appropriate Directors of the City to enter into agreements and to take all actions necessary to implement this Ordinance.

Emergency action is requested in order to reimburse COHDO for substantial planning and pre-development activities already provided.

FISCAL IMPACT: The Auditor's Certificates established in Ordinances 1207-2008 and 0561-2010, totaling $1,110,000, will be cancelled and a new Auditor's Certificate for $1,110,000 will be established by this legislation.
