1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and increase an existing contract with Precision Concrete Cutting, Inc., for the Pedestrian Safety Improvements-Sidewalk Trip Hazard Repair 2022 project in an amount up to $100,000.00.
Ordinance 2452-2022 authorized the Director of Public Service to enter into contract with Precision Concrete Cutting, Inc. for the Pedestrian Safety Improvements-Sidewalk Trip Hazard Repair 2022. This project consists of the removal of trip hazards resulting from a difference in the elevation of abutting sidewalk panels within the corporation limits of the City of Columbus.
