Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a contract with EMH&T for construction administration/inspection services for Department of Public Utilities construction projects bid during the calendar years 2023 through 2025 as part of the Construction Administration/Construction Inspection Services 2023-2025 contracts.

The first construction project to be administered by EMH&T under this contract is:
• CIP #650725-100004 Alum Creek Trunk - South (Phase 1) Sewer Rehabilitation
Future construction projects assigned to EMH&T to administer/inspect will be added to their Construction Administration/Construction Inspection Services 2023-2025 contract as tasks, and the contract will be modified to authorize the EMH&T work and to add funding to pay for the work.

This work will primarily be performed in Columbus Community Area 99 - Citywide.
