Explanation
Background: This legislation is to modify the Scope of Services and reduce the dollars allocated to the existing Reimbursement Agreement For Northland Mall Demolition with Columbus Urban Growth Corporation. The existing agreement allows payments for demolition of certain structures at the former Northland Mall site. Costs for demolition work were lower than estimated and $200,000 will remain unspent on the contract. A companion project, Northland Roadways Phase 1, needs an additional $150,000 to pay for higher than estimated engineering costs. The first modification to the Northland Mall Demolition Agreement will reduce the total dollars from $1,100,000 to $950,000. The second modification will allow payments for administrative fees to Columbus Urban Growth Corporation for the management of the Northland demolition project up to $50,000. Companion legislation increases the Northland Roadways Phase 1 contract by $150,000, from $1,300,000 to $1,450,000.
Fiscal Impact: The total contract dollars will decrease by $150,000, to $950,000. These funds will be transferred to the Northland Roadways Phase 1 contract in order to complete all roadway work.
Emergency Justification: This legislation is an emergency measure to allow all funds to be amassed for the roadway project prior to commencing construction.
