Authorizing the Mayor to enter into an amended subrecipient agreement with the Lucas County Land Bank for 10 commercial demolitions as part of the City’s ARPA-funded residential and commercial demolition program; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
Ordinance 553-22 authorized the appropriation and expenditure of $4,000,000 of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for the demolition of nuisance properties in the City of Toledo. The Department of Public Service Division of Urban Beautification is in the process of completing approximately 1,000 residential and commercial demolitions. Due to the scale of the remaining commercial demolitions necessary, the City plans to amend its existing subrecipient agreement with the Lucas County Land Bank to complete 10 demolitions at a cost not to exceed $293,250.
Summary
NOW THEREFORE Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:
SECTION 1. That the Mayor is authorized to enter into an amended subrecipient agreement with the Lucas County Land Bank in an amount not to exceed $293,250 for commercial demolitions, upon terms and conditions acceptable to the Director of Public Service and the Director of Law.
SECTION 2. That this Ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage. The reason for the emergency lies in the fact that the same is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety and property, and for further reason that the Ordinance must be immediately effective in order to allow the timely demolition of blighted properties.
