Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a planned contract renewal and modification with J&D Home Improvement, LLC dba The Basement Doctor for the Blueprint Volunteer Sump Pump 2022 project, CIP #650876-122991, to renew for an additional year and to add funding up to $1,000,000.00 for the project.
This project is one of the four main pillars of the Blueprint process. It consists of residents volunteering for installation of sump pumps in their homes to reduce excess stormwater entering the City's sanitary sewer system. The sump pumps redirect foundation drain away from the sanitary lateral to the sump pit. This contract covers properties throughout the City of Columbus BluePrint areas including but not limited to Clintonville, Hilltop, Miller/Kelton, Linden, James Livingston, and Old Beechwold.
The Community Planning Area is “99 - Citywide”.
