Explanation

Background:  This is consent legislation with Franklin County, Ohio and Franklin Township for the Brown Road, Big Run to Frank Road project.  

This project involves the repaving/recycling of the 2-lane section of Brown Road from Big Run to Frank Road.   This section of road is a City of Columbus and Franklin Township roadway that serves residents and businesses on the south side of Columbus, as well as unincorporated Franklin County.  Construction for this project is scheduled to begin in September, 2008  and be completed in October, 2008.  Sidewalk will not be built as a part of the project.

Since a portion of this project lies within the City of Columbus, this consent ordinance is necessary.  This legislation also authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into the necessary agreements to complete this project.

Fiscal Impact:  The estimated construction cost of this project is $300,000.00, which will be funded by the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) in the amount of  $130,000.00, $150,000.00 by private funding and $20,000.00 by Franklin Township.  There is no cost to the City of Columbus for this project.
