Body

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:

The Division of Urban Beautification is charged with the responsibility of cleaning up blight within the City of Toledo. Although Urban Beautification has many pieces of equipment, it is necessary to purchase new equipment specifically for blight clean-up. Ordinance 490-22 authorized the purchase of several pieces of equipment, however due increased build times and cost changes, the division would like to amend the original ordinance to expand the types of equipment purchased.

SECTION 1. That Section 2 of Ordinance 490-22 which reads as follows:
