Explanation
On June 30, 2015, the City purchased several parcels located at Home and Dublin Roads in Delaware County that will be used for the City’s fourth water plant and were formerly part of the State of Ohio, Department of Youth Services, Scioto Juvenile Correction Facility. One of the parcels purchased by the City (7943 Dublin Road) was encumbered by a lease to The Board of Concord Township Trustees and contains the Concord Township Fire Station. As part of the State of Ohio’s transaction to dispose of its Scioto Juvenile Correction Facility and its sale to the City, The Board of Concord Township Trustees was given land on which to build a new fire station in exchange for vacating the site of the present station by the lease expiration date of June 30, 2016. Due to unforeseen delays in the start of the construction of the new Concord Township Fire Station, The Board of Concord Township Trustees has requested an extension of its lease until the estimated completion date of the new fire station in early-to-mid 2017. The City’s Division of Water does not object to the lease extension.
This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Finance and Management to execute a lease amendment with The Board of Concord Township Trustees to extend the lease for a one year term to June 30, 2017.
