The following sections provide descriptions of the appropriations contained within each section of the Ordinance, and the reason for the request. Many of the appropriations requested below are for financial housekeeping, or re-appropriation of unused proceeds for debt financed or capital projects. At year-end, all these proceeds were unencumbered as required by the Ohio Revised Code. These requests reflect the mechanics of re- appropriating the funds again for use in 2023. Section 1 requests a funding appropriation of $500,000 in the Water Construction Fund for projects previously approved by City Council in the 2022-2026 Capital Improvements Program such as the Water Booster Station Maintenance. The booster station project includes the replacement of existing equipment/materials and new pipe coating at the stations. The Water Construction fund was established in 2022 to account for the funding of construction projects with the objective of ensuring that only appropriated funds pertaining to these projects are utilized. Initiating Department: Department of Finance, and Public Works - Engineering (Section 1) Section 2 requests a $38,700 funding appropriation in the Law Enforcement Trust Fund to purchase additional public safety equipment. This fund, established by the Ohio Revised Code accounts for all cash or cash proceeds that are a result of contraband property seizures and forfeitures of property. Initiating Department: Police Department (Section 2) Section 3 requests a $100,000 funding appropriation in the Safety Fund for support services in partnership with Syntero for a Public Safety Social Services Coordinator as outlined in Ordinance 22-22. The Public Safety Social Services Coordinator is intended to augment the agency’s sworn staff with support by bridging available providers of social services with those members of the public who are in need. Examples of work for this position will include: • Developing and delivering department training regarding specialized populations. • Developing and maintaining positive working relationships with community behavioral health providers and other community based social services.

The Public Safety Social Services Coordinator will assist in evaluating an individual’s need for mental health, physical or daily living services and assist them in connecting with the appropriate community resources and organizations who can further assist them in meeting their basic needs. Since 2018, the Dublin Police Department has responded to over 1,000 calls for services involving individuals in crisis. This coordinator would provide short to intermediate term case management services and resource connectivity to reduce repeat calls for police service. Thus, allowing sworn personnel to focus on public safety through crime prevention, reduction and deterrence efforts. Initiating Department: Police Department (Section 3) Section 4 requests a total of $100,000 funding appropriation from re-forestation funds for the Indian Run Meadows Planned Use Development Corridor for landscape maintenance. Ordinances 52-22 and 53- 22 secured Landscape Maintenance Easements associated with the Greenway Corridor Program that was initiated by City Council in 2020 for the properties adjoining Avery-Muirfield Drive in the Indian Run Meadows subdivision. Of the affirmed 21 properties, the plan includes the removal of 84 trees/shrubs that are in poor condition and the planting of 123 new trees/shrubs to achieve the minimum screening requirements. Initiating Departments: Parks and Recreation (Section 4) Section 5 requests $260,000 in funding appropriations for projects in the Capital Improvements Tax Fund. • $120,000 is requested for the previously approved Dublin Springs Parks Improvements project from the 2022-2026 Capital Improvements Program. Engineering reports indicated that improvements will need to be made to park structures. This project provides funding for necessary improvements to the Dublin Spring Park, located along the river under the Bridge Street bridge at 20 South Riverview Street. • $140,000 is requested for various stormwater improvements identified in the Stormwater Master Plan. The funds are utilized to maintain and repair existing storm sewers, curb inlets, catch basins, ditches, man-made channels and other structures that discharge stormwater runoff. Initiating Department: Parks and Recreation, and Public Works - Engineering (Section 5) Section 6 requests $210,000 in funding appropriation for the previously approved Tartan West Water Tank Repainting project from the 2022-2026 Capital Improvements Program in the Water Fund.
