Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus Health Department has been awarded a grant from The Greater Columbus Arts Council for the 2011 Art Walk Project. This ordinance is needed to accept and appropriate $4,000.00 in grant money to fund this program for the period January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011.

The Art Walk Project increases opportunity for physical activity for residents and visitors by participating in a fitness walk highlighting Columbus public art - architecture - and places of interest in the central Ohio area.

This ordinance is submitted as an emergency so as to allow the financial transaction to be posted in the City's accounting system as soon as possible. Up to date financial posting promotes accurate accounting and financial management.

FISCAL IMPACT: The program is funded by the Greater Columbus Arts Council and does not generate revenue.
