Explanation
The City of Columbus and the City of Bexley jointly desire to pursue improvements to the intersection of Main Street and Alum Creek Drive. The City of Bexley received a $400,000.00 Transportation Enhancement Program (TEP) project grant to improve the intersection of Main Street and Alum Creek Drive. The portion of the project that the City of Columbus' funding would improve involves the installation of sidewalk, curbs and handicap ramps. The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is administering this project and the City of Bexley has fronted the money to ODOT on behalf of the City of Columbus for construction work for the portion of the project that is within Columbus city limits. This legislation grants consent and proposes cooperation with Bexley for the improvement, appropriates funds and authorizes the expenditure of up to $30,600.00 to reimburse Bexley for construction expenses germane to Columbus.

Fiscal Impact: The City of Columbus' portion of the construction work for this intersection improvement is estimated at $30,600.00. This expense is not budgeted per se, however, the needed funds have been identified within the General Permanent Improvement Fund, General Roadway Street Improvement project. This ordinance appropriates the needed funds and authorizes their expenditure.

Emergency action is requested to allow for timely payment to the City of Bexley to maintain and enhance local intergovernmental relations.
