Explanation
This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to modify a grant agreement with the Workforce Development Board of Central Ohio (WDBCO) to change some of the scope of services in a grant agreement.
Columbus City Council approved ordinance 2868-2020 on December 7, 2020, to provide CARES Act funding support for WDBCO to renovate their spaces to change the flow of people and to install hard surfaces that can be easily cleaned in order to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
