Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the appropriation and expenditure of $16,035.00 from the Emergency Human Services Capital Fund. Funds will be used by the Department of Development for a grant agreement to The Community Arts Project dba The King Arts Complex for the purpose of installing a complete HVAC system within the connecting corridor between the Garfield building and the Pythian building located at 867 Mt. Vernon Avenue.

The Martin Luther King Jr. Performing and Cultural Arts Complex exists to enrich and improve the quality of life in the community by preserving, presenting, promoting and fostering the contributions of African Americans through creative expression and education. The Martin Luther King Jr. Performing and Cultural Arts Complex opened in 1987 and is the only multi-disciplinary non-profit arts facility in Ohio providing year round educational, performing arts and cultural arts programs celebrating the contributions of African Americans. During the process of installing a permanent interactive learning area called The Middle Passage it was discovered that only the façade of an HVAC system existed and that the vents and heating panels associated with the system were never connected thus resulting in water draining into the area and creating wet, slippery floors and irregular temperatures during winter and summer months. The installation of a complete HVAC system will eliminate these problems.

This legislation is presented as an emergency in order to assist the organization in timely manner.

FISCAL IMPACT: Funds are allocated from the FY2006 Emergency Human Services Capital Fund.
