Explanation
Background: The Columbus City Council passed Ordinance 1301-2010 on October 4, 2010, establishing a tax increment financing area benefiting parcels near 3rd Avenue and Olentangy River Road pursuant to Section 5709.40(B) of the Ohio Revised Code. Ordinance 2130-2011 passed on December 5, 2011, authorized the Director of Development to enter into a tax increment finance agreement with NRI Equity Land Investments, LLC to provide for the construction and financing of certain improvements within and around that tax increment finance area.
Due to the many public improvement projects to take place in this area, there may be a need for multiple departments to enter into subsequent agreements with the NRI Equity Land Investments, LLC.
This ordinance will amend Ordinance 2130-2011 by adding language that authorizes the Director of Development or other appropriate officers of the City to execute subsequent agreements with NRI Equity Land Investments, LLC.
Fiscal Impact: No City funding is required for this legislation.
