Explanation
The Public Service Department, Transportation Division, has completed the Lane Avenue Improvement project. This project detailed widening the road to four lanes with a center turn lane between Olentangy River Road and High Street, constructing new sidewalks with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant ramps and signal improvements. Overhead utilities were buried to improve aesthetics.

The Electricity Division has invoiced the Transportation Division for utility burying services performed by Electricity. The cost of this service was $25,044.83. This ordinance authorizes the payment of this sum by the Transportation Division to the Electricity Division.

Fiscal Impact: Funding for this purpose is available within the State Issue Two Street Projects Fund in the Lane Avenue Improvement project. This ordinance appropriates the necessary funds and authorizes their expenditure.

Emergency action is requested to satisfy the Electricity Division's outstanding invoice as soon as possible. This promotes accurate and timely city accounting practices.
