BACKGROUND: The Director of the Department of Development entered into an agreement with the Short North

Special Improvement District, Inc. for professional services for the establishment of a Special Improvement District (SID)

on north high Street from the railroad viaduct at the Convention Center north to Smith Place. The first petition to create the

SID and Articles of Incorporation was approved by City Council by Ordinance No. 1839-98, passed July 13, 1998. City

Council also approved the Plan for Improvements and Services to be provided by the Short North SID by Resolution No.

32X-99, passed March 22, 1999. The necessity to implement the Plan of Improvements and Services and to levy a special

assessment for the improvements and services was approved by City Council by Resolution No. 49X-99, passed April 22,

1999. A final piece of legislation, providing for the levy of assessment to property owners, was approved by City Council

Explanation


BACKGROUND: In 1999 the Capitol South Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation, the Greater Columbus

Chamber of Commerce and the Columbus Department of Trade and Development initiated an effort to work with

downtown property owners to create a Special Improvement District (SID) in the core area of downtown. Property owners

were surveyed and overwhelmingly were in support of creating a SID. The SID was created for a five-year period and was

very successful. The five-year period concluded in the summer of 2006 and the property owners wish to start again with

the creation of another SID, with slightly different boundaries, but still called the Capital Crossroads Special Improvement

District. The property owners initiated a one-petition process in which at least 60% of the property owners within the

District signed that they are interested in forming a SID and approving the Articles of Incorporation. This petition was

accepted and approved by Columbus City Council by Ordinance No. 02546-2006, passed April 3, 2006. Another action

required by the Ohio Revised Code is the approval of the Plan of Improvements and Services and the inclusion of City

owned property in said plan. This legislation was approved by Columbus City Council Resolution 0016X-2006, passed

February 27, 2006. The third piece of legislation was to declare the necessity to implement the Plan of Services adopted by

the Capital Crossroads Special Improvement District of Columbus, Inc., and to levy a special assessment for the services.

This legislation was approved by Columbus City Council Resolution 0067X-2006, passed April 24, 2006. A final piece of

legislation, providing for the levy of assessment to property owners, was approved by City Council by Ordinance No.

Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the appropriation of a portion of the FY 2007 HOME monies within the

HOME Investment Partnerships Program for the Department of Development. Since the federal government has not yet

finalized the 2007 funding levels for the HOME Program, an ordinance is needed to appropriate critical components of the

program. Specifically, administrative dollars and funding for Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA) activities are

immediately needed. This ordinance is in accordance with Ordinance No. 1748-2006 passed November 6, 2006,

authorizing the adoption and filing of the Consolidated Plan and application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban

Development (HUD).

The funds will be allocated as follows: $325,000 for the Affordable Housing Opportunity Fund - Tenant Based Rental

Assistance (TBRA) and $400,000 for HOME administration. It is anticipated that the city of Columbus will receive in

excess of $5,000,000 in HOME funding. The balance of the HOME dollars will be requested to be appropriated and

expended once the actual allocation amount is received from HUD.

Emergency action is requested to allow for payment of projects where commitment letters have been issued.

FISCAL IMPACT: The City of Columbus is awarded approximately $5 million by the United States Department of

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to fund various housing assistance activities under the HOME Investment

Partnerships Program. This ordinance requests the appropriation of $725,000. Separate ordinances are being submitted for

the expenditure of the Tenant Based Rental Assistance ($325,000). In addition, once the allocation amount is received

from HUD a request will be made to city council to appropriate and expend the balance of the HOME dollars.

ExplanationBACKGROUND: The O'Shaughnessy Dam, completed in 1924, forms a reservoir that provides a major

source of drinking water for the Columbus Metropolitan area. In addition the city operates a hydroelectric plant at the dam

Explanation

BACKGROUND: In 2005 the Northland Alliance, the Morse Road SID Exploratory Committee, and the City of

Columbus Development Department initiated an effort with property owners on Morse Road from Indianola Avenue to

Cleveland Avenue to create a Special Improvement District (SID). On October 12, 2005, the City Council Jobs and

Economic Development Committee was briefed on the plans and progress of the Morse Road SID. The property owners

initiated a one-petition process in which at least 60% of the property owners within the District signed that they are

interested in forming a SID and approving the Articles of Incorporation. This petition was accepted and approved by

Columbus City Council by Ordinance 0414-2006, passed February 27, 2006. Another action required by the Ohio Revised

Code is the approval of the Plan of Improvements and Services and the inclusion of City owned property in said plan. This

legislation was approved by Columbus City Council by Resolution 0023X-2006, passed March 6, 2006. The third piece of

legislation was to declare the necessity to implement the Plan of Services adopted by the Morse Road Special

Improvement District of Columbus, Inc., and to levy a special assessment for the services. This legislation was approved

by Columbus City Council by Resolution 0069X-2006, passed April 24, 2006. A final piece of legislation, providing for

the levy of assessment to property owners, was approved by City Council by Ordinance 1180-2006, passed July 10, 2006.

Explanation

Background: The Public Service Department, Refuse Collection Division, has contracted since 1994 to provide weekly

yard waste collection services to Columbus residents. The current contract for yard waste collection with Rumpke of Ohio,

Incorporated commenced March 01, 2006 for a five-year period contingent upon annual funding approval from Council.

This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to modify and increase the existing yard waste collection contract

with Rumpke for the period February 1, 2007 through January 31, 2008 in the amount of $3,989,204.

The current yard waste collection charge is $1.44 per month per household and is in effect until February 01, 2007.

Effective February 1, 2007, Rumpke will increase the rate charged to $1.48 per month per household. This increase

constitutes a 2.4416% percent increase over the existing rate. This rate will be in effect until February 01, 2008. It is

estimated that the increase in the per household charge and new home growth will cost the Refuse Collection Division an

additional $148,283 for yard waste collection in 2007.

Rumpke's contract compliance number is 31-1617611, expiring April 18, 2008.

Fiscal Impact: The Refuse Collection Division has a total of $4,052,240 budgeted in the General Fund for yard waste

collection in 2007. In 2006, $3,840,921 was expended for yard waste collection.

Emergency action is requested to establish funding for this contract in a timely manner to avoid service interruptions to

residents. Consideration of this ordinance as a thirty-day measure is impractical given the timing of passage of the General

Fund budget and the projected exhaustion of existing contract funding.

Title

To authorize the Public Service Director to modify and increase a contract for the Refuse Collection Division with

Rumpke of Ohio, Incorporated, for yard waste collection services, to authorize the expenditure of $3,989,204 from the

General Fund; and to declare an emergency. ($3,989,204)

WHEREAS, with approval of Council, this agreement can be extended for four one year periods, beginning February 01,

2007 through January 31, 2010; and

WHEREAS, the terms of the contract modification and increase were negotiated by the parties to their mutual satisfaction

and with an eye toward minimizing costs to the City; and

WHEREAS, this is the first price increase in the yard waste collection contract since the original agreement in March

2006; and

WHEREAS, it is in the City's best interest to modify and extend the current yard waste collection contract with Rumpke of

Ohio, Inc.; and

WHEREAS, an emergency exists in the usual daily operation of the Refuse Collection Division, Public Service

Department, in that it is immediately necessary to modify and increase this contract in a timely manner to avoid service

interruptions to residents, thereby preserving the public health, peace, property, safety and welfare; now, therefore



SECTION 1. That the Public Service Director be and hereby is authorized to modify and increase the existing

contract with Rumpke of Ohio, Incorporated, for yard waste collection service for the Refuse Collection Division for the

Redevelopment Corporation to initiate an effort to work with Discovery District property owners to create a Special

Improvement District (SID) on the east side of downtown. Property owners were surveyed and overwhelmingly were in

support of seeing a proposal to create a SID. The first action required by Chapter 1710 of the Ohio Revised Code is to

have not less than 60% of the property owners within the District sign a petition that states they are interested in forming a

SID. The first petition was accepted and approved by Columbus City Council by Ordinance No. 1233-2005, passed July

18, 2005. The second action required by the Ohio Revised Code is to have not less than 60% of the property owners sign a

petition to assess themselves for the services to be provided by the SID. The second piece of legislation also approved the

Plan of Services for the SID and the inclusion of City owned property in said plan. This legislation was approved by

Explanation

The Public Service Department has operated the Paving the Way program since 1990. This program provides up-to-date

road construction information to the public and to the media, including information on road closures, detours, and

alternative routes as well as technical advice for construction-related activities and safety tips. A website is updated daily.

Ordinance 1749-2004 passed by City Council on September 24, 2004 authorized the Public Service Director to execute

agreements and appropriate monies necessary for this purpose. The funds were originally appropriated to the personnel

category; however, it is now necessary to transfer some of these funds from the personnel category into the supplies and

services categories for the program to continue operations.

This ordinance authorizes the City Auditor to transfer funds between Object level three codes to facilitate operational

needs of the program such as the purchase of brochures and other printed material, web hosting, cell phones, office

supplies, professional services such as informational surveys conducted by an outside vendor, mileage costs, fleet costs ,

and other operational needs.

Fiscal Impact: No additional funding is required at this time. The legislation will allow current grant funds to be used to

the greatest extent possible. A new grant agreement is being made ready for approval when current grant funds are

exhausted.

Emergency action is requested to allow the financial transactions to be posted in the city's accounting system as soon as

possible. Up to date financial posting promotes accurate accounting and financial management and avoids any service

interruptions.

Explanation

BACKGROUND: In response to a petition from the Department of Development, City Council, by its Ordinance No.

2172-2005 passed on December 12, 2005, approved the creation of the Short North Incentive District. Service payments

in lieu of taxes made with respect to improvements within the Short North Incentive District are diverted to the Short North

Tax Equivalent Fund and are intended to finance the creation of up to 500 public parking spaces in the Short North

Incentive District to relieve parking overcrowding and spur job creation. A parking study was done in 2005 that identified

a need for 500 additional parking spaces in the Short North TIF District. A development has been proposed in the Short

North that would develop 250 of those 500 spaces. The City is committed to continue working to help generate the

additional 250 parking spaces needed in the Short North area.

The attached ordinance authorizes the Director of Development to enter into a TIF Project and Reimbursement Agreement

by and among the City and Apex Realty Enterprises, LLC to finance the construction of a parking garage containing 250

public parking spaces by assigning a portion of the service payments in lieu of taxes collected within the Short North TIF

Incentive District to pay costs incurred for construction of that parking garage.

FISCAL IMPACT: The City has foregone the real property tax revenue that it would have received with respect to

development within the Short North Incentive District. Instead, that revenue has been diverted to the Short North Tax

Equivalent Fund, a portion of which will be applied and distributed pursuant to the TIF Project and Reimbursement

Agreement.

Short North Incentive District (the "Incentive District"), declaring improvements to parcels of certain real property located

in the Incentive District to be a public purpose, exempting those improvements from real property taxation for a period of

time, specifying certain public infrastructure improvements to be made to benefit those parcels, providing for the making

of service payments in lieu of taxes (the "Service Payments") by the owners thereof, providing for payments to the

Columbus City School District in the amount of the real property taxes that School District would have been paid if the

improvements had not be exempted from taxation pursuant to the Short North TIF Ordinance, and establishing the Short

North Tax Equivalent Fund into which the remaining Service Payments are to be deposited (the "TIF Fund"); and

WHEREAS, there has been placed on file in the office of the City Clerk a Short North Parking Study, dated November

2005, which outlines the development that has occurred and continues to occur within the area compromising the Incentive

District and the public parking shortage therein; and

WHEREAS, the Short North Parking Study identified the need for an additional 500 public parking spaces in the area;

and

WHEREAS, this proposed development intends to construct 250 of the 500 public parking spaces needed in the Short

North; and

WHEREAS, the City is committed to continue working to help generate the additional 250 public parking spaces needed

in the Short North; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the redevelopment and revitalization of the Incentive District, this Council now desires to

authorize the execution of a TIF Project and Reimbursement Agreement (the "TIF Project and Reimbursement

Agreement") by and between the City and Apex Realty Enterprises, LLC (the "Developer"), to provide for the payment of

a portion of the Service Payments to the Developer or the assignment of a portion to the Columbus-Franklin County

Financing Authority to finance the construction of a parking garage containing 250 public parking spaces (the "Parking

Garage"); and

manner; and

Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes the appropriation and transfer of $6,399,485 from the Special Income Tax


Fund, to the Franklin County Facilities Authority Fund.

This ordinance is submitted as an emergency so as to allow the financial transaction to be posted into the City's accounting

funds will only occur if the CFA is unable to meet its debt obligations as outlined in its lease with the City. The City

provides fifty percent of this backing, while Franklin County is responsible for the other fifty percent.

Since 1990, no such payments have been needed, nor are any anticipated. However, this guarantee is an annual

requirement.
