Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes The Public Service Director to increase funding for an agreement with the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) for the Rehabilitation of 3.74 miles of Indianola Avenue, Morse Road, and High Street (U.S. Route 23), by means of planing, resurfacing, and partial depth pavement repair. Bids for this project were higher than expected causing the Ohio Department of Transportation to request additional funding from the City.

Project Limits extend on U.S. Route 23 (Indianola Avenue) from Hudson Street to Oakland Park Avenue; resuming on U.S. Route 23 (Indianola Avenue) from 0.01 miles North of Cooke Road to Morse Road; on Morse Road from Indianola Avenue to North High Street; and on North High Street from Morse Road to the Worthington corporation limit (0.82 miles North of Morse Road).

A related ordinance was recently passed by Council authorizing the Director of Public Service to enter into a contract with the Director of the Ohio Department of Transportation for this Indianola Avenue, Morse Road, and High Street (U.S. Route 23) rehabilitation project; the ordinance (and funding level) was:

Ordinance 0475-2008, passed April 7, 2008, for $221,644.00 for the City share of the estimated cost of the improvements.
This current ordinance authorizes an additional $10,976.00 for the project.

Emergency action is requested in order to meet ODOT's schedule to award this project in June, 2008. The project is scheduled to begin construction in August 2008 and end in October 2008.


Fiscal Impact: The bid amount for construction for this project is $862,665.00. The additional share of the cost for the City is $10,976.00, which serves as the adjusted amount to the City's ultimate share of the cost of the improvement which corresponds with the actual adjusted cost as determined and as provided for in Ordinance 0475-2008, passed April 7, 2008. Funds for the City's share of this project are budgeted in the 2008...
