emergency.  
05TMP-10204  
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:

Page 6  
traditional public safety, communities impacted by violence, survivors,  
community-based organizations, mental health agencies, funders, health  
systems, advocacy groups, policy-makers, faith-based organizations,  
school systems, and youth.  
The CAT Victim & Survivor Services working group identified several  
challenges faced by those impacted by gun violence, including access  
to basic needs, respite, relocation, home modifications and repairs  
after violent incidents, and burial costs. The Healing & Compassion  
Fund will supplement existing resources while helping to mitigate  
barriers. Current barriers include: fewer than 40% of Ohio Crime  
Victim Compensation claims were awarded in fiscal year 2023; the  
number of victims impacted by gun violence outstrips the resources  
available; victims’ compensation is typically reimbursement-based;  
application processes are typically difficult to navigate and not timely;  
and applicants can be disqualified for myriad reasons.  
This ordinance authorizes the City of Toledo to contract with the  
United Way of Greater Toledo to serve as the fiscal and administrative  
agent for the Compassion and Healing Fund pilot at a rate of 4% of all  
funds received. Services include: (1) receiving, depositing, and  
acknowledging funds received on behalf of the Compassion and  
Healing Fund; (2) ensuring funds are disbursed once authorized fund  
representatives approve based on an established approval process; (3)  
fiscal agent accounting controls; (4) quarterly reporting on funds  
received, expended, and how funds have been utilized; (5) including  
the Fund in the United Way 211 database to ensure it reaches  
community.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC UTILITIES  
Authorizing the appropriation and expenditure in an amount not

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:

draft tube mixers installed in the anaerobic digester tanks at the Bay  
View Water Reclamation Plant. These mixers are used to mix stored  
sludge to facilitate biological activity to break down thickened sludge  
for the sustainable purpose of reducing the volume of sludge while  
converting volatile solids to biogas, a renewable source of energy. The  
Division of Water Reclamation is seeking a contract with Ovivo in an  
amount not to exceed $750,000 for the purchase of new draft tube  
mixers and associated equipment, and a contract with a construction  
contractor in an amount not to exceed $250,000 for the installation,

to haul the containers caught fire and was destroyed. The one  
remaining unreliable truck is insufficient to service the plant. Water  
Reclamation negotiated with Jack Doheny Company for purchase of a

Authorizing the mayor to enter into a contract for the

declaring an emergency  
17TMP-10210  
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:  
The Department of Public Utilities needs to procure services to  
purchase, configure, and install necessary information technology  
network and security components. The firm that will be used is already  
familiar with systems and has available all necessary hardware and  
applications required. This Ordinance authorizes the appropriation and  
expenditure from the Water Replacement Fund.  
Authorizing the appropriation and expenditure of an amount not  
to exceed 214,230 from the unappropriated balances of multiple  
water and sewer funds, and operating transfer of the same for  
software for the design and construction of water mains, as well  
as operating expenses; and declaring an emergency.

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:  
The Engineering and Construction Management Division is partially  
funded by the Water Operating and Sewer Operating funds to support  
the design and construction of water mains and sanitary sewer lines  
throughout the City of Toledo. The division had awarded contracts  
authorized through Ord. 477-20 and Ord. 278-23 using funds that  
were approved and available in their 2023 operating budget. The  
contracts were not able to be completed as planned before the end of  
2023 and thus not included in the 2024 operating budget. This  
ordinance will provide the budget necessary to complete the contracts.  
Authorizing the Mayor to accept bids and award  
contracts for the Hydrant Replacement Program;  
authorizing the appropriation and expenditure in an  
amount not to exceed $300,000 from the Water  
Replacement Fund; and declaring an emergency.  
19TMP-10197  
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:

hydrant replacement program to replace old hydrants. It is the intent  
Printed on 5/29/2024

amount not to exceed $300,000 from the Water Replacement Fund  
for the purchase of hydrants, hydrant valves and other related  
materials.  
Authorizing the additional appropriation and expenditure  
of an amount not to exceed $30,000 from the Water  
Replacement Fund for the purchase of a meter test  
bench; authorizing the Mayor to accept bids and award  
contracts for said purchase; and declaring an emergency.  
20TMP-10199  
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:  
In December 2023, Ordinance 644-23 was passed for the  
appropriation and expenditure of no more than $130,000 from the  
Water Replacement Fund for the purchase of a meter test bench. Due  
to price increases, additional funding is needed. This Ordinance  
authorizes the appropriation and expenditure of up to an additional  
$30,000 from the Water Replacement Fund for the purchase of a  
meter test bench for the Meter Shop at the Division of Water  
Distribution. Residential, commercial and industrial water meters can  
become faulty and inaccurate. Water Distribution has a test bench that  
can test meters for accuracy, but it is over 30 years old. A new bench  
is needed for its ability to test larger capacity meters and more meters  
at a time. Also, the new automated testing bench will cut down testing  
time as the current bench requires manual testing.  
DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES

SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:  
The Employee Engagement Committee (EEC) is composed of City of  
Toledo employees representing multiple departments and divisions  
throughout the City that meet on a monthly basis to discuss work  
culture and ideas for employee engagement. A major goal of the  
Committee is to present city-wide employee appreciation events  
throughout the year. One such event is an annual Mud Hens Employee  
Night. The EEC respectfully requests up to $32,000 for the 2024 Mud  
Hens Employee Night event on July 26, 2024. The requested amount  
Printed on 5/29/2024  
Page 13  
will provide 1,200 home terrace tickets, a 2-hour buffet, an

apparel. The Department of Human Resources and the Office of the  
Mayor supports this initiative and the EEC’s commitment to employee  
appreciation.

of Trustees of Swanton Township, Lucas County, Ohio,  
and Monclova Township, Lucas County, Ohio, for the  
purpose of expanding the JEDD territory; making  
certain findings with respect thereto; and declaring an  
emergency.  
22TMP-10187  
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:  
Body:  
Pursuant to the authority of Ordinance 539-14 passed on December

the immediate vicinity of the Eugene F. Kranz Toledo Express Airport.  
The purpose of this economic development district is to facilitate  
economic growth and development within the territory. Pursuant to the  
authority of Ordinance 426-21 passed on August 17, 2021, the City  
entered into an amended the JEDD Contract for purposes of adding  
properties to the territory.  
Petitions have been recently submitted to the Joint Economic  
Development District Board requesting to include the below 9 parcels  
of undeveloped land to the district territory:  
1. 38-51207 located at 3455 Strayer Road, Monclova

Council was held on June 5, 2024, where public comment was  
received with respect to the proposed amendment. It is the Joint  
Economic Development District Board’s belief that amending the
