Attachments: 1. Ordinance 1211-2016
Explanation

Background: Ordinance 0315-2010, approved by Columbus City Council, authorized the Franklin County Municipal Court Clerk (hereinafter "Municipal Court Clerk") to enter into a one year contract, with six consecutive one year renewal options, with Huntington National Bank for the provisions of bank and credit card services.

Ordinance 0591-2016 modified the contract to enter into the sixth consecutive one year renewal option for the provision of bank services in the amount of $25,000.00, and to discontinue the credit card services. The credit card service will be provided through another vendor; whereby, the transaction fees will be deferred to the user, thus eliminating the credit card service fees.

This legislation authorizes the Municipal Court Clerk to modify and increase the contract with Huntington National Bank in the amount of $20,000.00. The additional funds are necessary to continue the credit card services for up to an additional sixty days or until the software compatibility issue with the credit card readers are resolved with the new vendor.
