Explanation

Background:

The City of Columbus (Licensor) desires to enter into a license agreement with the Ohio State University (Licensee) to allow the university to attach its aircraft monitoring equipment (remote receiver unit "RRU") to an existing communications tower owned by the City located at 1850 Twenty-Fifth Avenue. The Licensee is developing a system to accurately monitor and respond to noise and operational related issues at the OSU Airport. After investigation by the Department of Public Safety and Department of Communications, it has been determined that the attachment of the monitoring unit to the City tower will not adversely affect the City, and that the license should be granted. It has also been determined that the license should be granted at no charge in consideration for the Licensee's acceptance of all the conditions contained within the agreement and the subsequent benefit to the City. The following ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Safety to enter into a license agreement with the Ohio State University (Licensee) for the attachment of its aircraft monitoring equipment to an existing communications tower owned by the City.

Fiscal Impact: N/A

Emergency Justification: Emergency action is requested to allow for the immediate attachment of the subject noise and operational monitoring equipment at the OSU Airport, as not to delay any resulting noise and operational improvement that would benefit the City.
