CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR ANNUAL REPORT—1982
Notwithstanding the impact of a sluggish national economy, 1982 can be viewed as a year of continuing progress for the City of Columbus. While some activities remained constrained by the economic environment, other projects continued on schedule and as planned. The net effect was continued growth and development, and an enhancement of Columbus' image as a truly great city in which to live.
Largely because economic recovery was not expected to materialize fully in 1982, city officials sought a .5% increase in the city income tax so as to avoid any reduction in vital city services. The leadership provided by both public officials and community leaders in promoting this issue resulted in its passage by the voters in the November election. The positive reaction by the voters on this tax issue is a reflection of confidence in the future of their city. Prudent financial management resulted in 3.4 million dollars being available for "carry-over" into the General Fund for 1983. In spite of the income tax increase and the aforementioned carry-over, labor settlements and other unanticipated costs will continue to cause considerable strain on the budget for the foreseeable future.
The construction of the refuse/coal-fired municipal electric plant remained a high priority. The plant is scheduled to come on line in the Spring of 1983, and will provide the City of Columbus with the latest technology in refuse disposal and municipal electric power generation. Another major capital project nearing completion was the Parsons Avenue Water Treatment Plant. This plant is the city's third major supply system and it will be in operation in the summer of 1983. The facility will provide an additional 50 million gallons of water per day and is designed to be fully computer-izd, thereby reducing personnel operating costs and optimizing the water treatment process.
Investment in the downtown by the private sector remained strong. Both the 32 story American Electric Power Company building and the Columbia Gas building were nearing completion. Additionally, construction began on a new hotel and a new office building in the Capital South area. These projects, in addition to the expansion and rehabilitation work begun on such landmark buildings as the Ohio Theatre and the Southern Hotel, are all blending in a way so as to preserve the city's architectural heritage, while at the same time providing the most modern facilities and accommodations available.
City departments continue to seek better ways and methods for improving delivery of services. Several new approaches and concepts were initiated, while other programs begun in previous years were reaching maturity. The Department of Finance contracted with Battelle Columbus Division to develop a system that would assist the city in setting priorities and ranking proposed project cuts and expansions for its 1983 operating budget. The Battelle Study represented a preliminary effort to implement a more systematic and goal-oriented budgeting system. This effort has received considerable attention nationally, and the system is certain to be utilized by other major cities as they attempt to develop budget priorities in the future. Another unique feature of this approach is that it involved not only city officials, but also participants from business neighborhood groups and the media.
One program reaching maturity in 1982 was the Columbus Countywide Development Corporation (CCDC). This program, administered by the Department of Development was created to help small businesses obtain financing needed for job-created business expansion. The program involved banks, savings and loans, investment companies and the Small Business Administration. Since February, CCDC has assisted in the financing of projects involving 34 com
pany expansions. This is expected to result in the creation of 793 permanent jobs during the next one (1) to three (3) years, while retaining 1,764 existing jobs. This program has enormous potential and is expected to have a very positive impact in improving the overall employment picture throughout the area.
The Department of Energy and Telecommunication completed the District Heating and Cooling Feasibility Study that had been initiated in 1981, with funding from the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. This effort led to an agreement with the Royal Danish Government by which Columbus was designated as a test city for the feasibility of lower-cost hot water district heating and cooling technology as currently utilized in western Europe. The agreement, a first of its kind, calls for an 18-month, $500,000 effort by Danish engineers, universities, laboratories and consultants in conjunction with Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Department of Energy & Telecommunication.
Significant progress was made in 1982 toward the development of a cable interconnect program. This network when completed will connect City Hall with the four cable companies and facilitate video programming, voice and data transmission. Engineering work is to be completed in the Spring of 1983 and completion of construction later in the summer.
Early in the year, the Department of Community Services was notified of the passage of new employment and training legislation by the U. S. Congress to replace the Comprehensive Employment & Training Act (CETA). This legislation, the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), provides a one-year transition period before becoming fully effective October 1, 1983. Its primary objective is to teach people skills, thereby increasing their opportunity for gainful employment. The new legislation provides that funding be made available to state governors who will allocate the funds to local service delivery areas with a population of at least 200,000 persons. The Columbus/Franklin County area will receive funds under the new act. Again, the City of Columbus will work closely with the Franklin County Commissioners and private industry in overseeing the planning and operation of the new program.
Another program making considerable progress in 1982 was the Columbus Volunteer Corps (CVC). CVC, under the policy direction of the Mayor's Advisory Council on Voluntary Service, was established to recruit and coordinate volunteer efforts that impact on city government. During its first year of operation CVC recruited 292 volunteers who registered over 3,850 hours of volunteer service. The CVC is a joint community and city government partnership and is proving to be a vital adjunct to city departments, especially this period of budget austerity.
Because of higher than usual unemployment and a cutback in certain Federally funded social programs, the problem of providing housing and other forms of assistance for the needy became acute. The city, in a cooperative effort with Franklin County, social service agencies, and the private sector, contributed significantly to efforts designed to alleviate this problem. It is anticipated that such efforts will continue until full economic recovery is realized.
This report summarizes only those activities, events and programs which were "new" in 1982 or which represent significant impact in the operation of city government as it relates to the citizenry. There were, in fact, many other important activities involving all city departments and numerous city personnel. Such activities are explained in greater detail in the annual reports of those departments.
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982
OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY ANNUAL REPORT—1982
INTRODUCTION Columbus City Attorney Gregory S. Lashutka is now serv
ing his second term in this office. According to the Columbus City Charter and the Columbus City Codes an annual report " . . . in comprehensive and systematized detail . . . " must be submitted to Council by the various City departments and divisions. This annual report addresses the issues and accomplishments of the City Attorney's office for the year 1982. This was a year highlighted by the continued development of important programs and the successful achievement of many goals.
The following pages set forth the facts and figures about the case load, the programs and policies, the office staff, and the responsibilities of the Columbus City Attorney's office. Even a quick glance at the figures will show that the office handles an incredibly large number of cases—both civil and criminal. But cases involve people, and a closer examination of the operation of this office reveals the situations that dramatically affect the day-to-day lives of the citizens of Columbus.
This office deals with people in all walks of life and in all types of situations. The extremes of responsibility extend from the barking dog on the east side to the unfixed pothole on the west side; from the purchase of City property on the north end to contracts for City services on the south end. The Department of Law helps resolve neighborhood disputes and damage claims as well as the filing and prosecution of criminal cases. The office represents all Columbus citizens in such matters as testimony before the PUCO and other regulatory commissions.
The Department of Law is the legal representative for all other City departments and City employees involved in the scope of their work. This position requires of the civil Vtaff continual research and trial work and constitutes a substantial portion of the daily tasks of the office. Since the various City departments are involved in so many areas of municipal business and because the work performed by City employees is so all-encompassing, the challenge of meeting these legal needs is a great one.
The City Attorney's office is also involved in the analysis of two recent important changes in municipal law. First, the Ohio Supreme Court last year in Haverlack v. Portage Homes, Inc. has apparently judicially abolished the doctrine of sovereign immunity for municipalities in Ohio unless specifically provided for by statute. This case should significantly expand municipal liability and increase the cost of municipal government throughtout the entire state of Ohio. Secondly, the United States Supreme Court has stripped cities of their federal antitrust immunity in the operation of municipal government. This office, with the cooperation of the City administration and Council, has reviewed the exposure of Columbus, Ohio. Through that review our expertise has become widely recognized. In 1982, City Attorney Lashutka testified before the United States Senate Judiciary Committee to encourage a federal statutory change to restore immunity. He and Senior Assistant Douglas W. Vanscoy have presented papers and the Columbus experience to such groups as the Ohio Municipal League, the National League of Cities, the American Law Institute and the New York State Association of County Attorneys.
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION In general, the responsibilities of the City Attorney's
Office can be outlined as follows: Under the Charter of the City of Columbus, Ohio, the City
Attorney is required to be an elector of the City and an attorney at law, admitted to practice in the State of Ohio. He is elected for a term of four years and serves as the legal adviser, attorney and counsel for the City, and for all City offices and departments in matters relating to their official duties.
The City Attorney is required by the City Charter to prosecute or defend all suits for and in behalf of the City; to prepare all contracts, bonds and other instruments in writing in which the City is concerned and to certify in writing his approval as to the form and correctness of these instruments.
The City Attorney is the prosecuting attorney of the Municipal Court of Franklin County, Ohio, and may detail such of his assistants as he deems proper to assist in this work. In performing these duties, the City Attorney's office prosecutes all misdemeanor violations brought before such court and performs the same duties, so far as they are applicable
thereto, as are required of the prosecuting attorney of Franklin County, Ohio.
Furthermore, the City Attorney is required to prosecute or defend on behalf of the City of Columbus, and all its employees, all complaints, suits and controversies in which the City is a party, and such other suits, matters and controversies relating to City affairs as he shall be directed by City Council.
The Council, director of any department, or any officer, board or commission not included within a department, may request in writing, the opinion of the City Attorney upon questions of law involving their respective powers and duties.
In addition to the duties imposed upon the City Attorney by the Charter, which have hereinabove been set forth in a general way, or those duties required of him by City ordinance, the City Attorney also performs the duties which are legally required of him by the general law of the State of Ohio.
In order to discharge these duties, the City Attorney's Office is organized into two basic divisions: the Civil Division and the Prosecutor Division. The Civil Division is comprised of assistant city attorneys, investigators, legal interns, and secretaries involved in responding to the requests of all of the various City officials in need of legal advice, whether by formal opinion or by day-to-day oral and informal written advice; contract review and approval; ordinance review and approval; and prosecuting and defending all civil actions on behalf of the City in various courts. The Civil Division also includes the Land Acquisition Office, the Police Legal Advisor, and the Claims Section.
The Prosector Division includes all of the assistant city prosecutors, investigators, legal interns and secretaries necessary to fulfill the responsibility of acting as prosecuting attorney in the Franklin COunty Municipal Court. In addition, the Night Prosecutor's Program, Intake Section, and Witness Assistance Program function as a part of the Prosecutor Division.
CITY ATTORNEY OPINIONS As noted above, the Columbus City Charter (§ 70) imposes
upon the City Attorney the duty of rendering opinions to City Council, the director of any department, or any officer, board or commission not included within a department, upon any question of law involving their respective powers or duties when the request for such opinion is made in writing. These formal opinions, which usually require extensive research and preparation, are far outnumbered by advice provided by the office orally, by letter, or by less formal memoranda.
The City Attorney's office has established a policy over the past five years to increase the informal legal advice provided its clients. This less formal advice is often given before a real problem arises within a particular department thereby eliminating the need for a formal opinion. Additionally, the less formal advice, usually in the form of memoranda, provides greater flexibility for the affected department, office, board or commission, and City Council.
The City Attorney's office has also worked hard over the past five years to make sure that opinion requests received a prompt response rather than to remain pending for long periods of time. There were no opinion requests pending on January 1, 1982. There were 8 opinion requests received in 1982 and 6 opinions were issued (2 requests were answered in the same opinion) in 1982 and 1 opinion was rendered early in January 1983.
Some of the formal opinions of interest issued during 1982 are summarized below:
Opinion No. 1-82, issued April 5, 1982, to Columbus City Councilman Ben Espy.
Mr. Espy asked the City Attorney three questions regarding the circumstances surrounding the City's contract with City Wide Towing and Storage. A brief background discussion is necessary to understand the nature of Mr. Espy's question and the City Attorney's response.
At a Council meeting on February 20, 1982, it was decided to once again open bidding for professional services of towing and storing impounded vehicles. From 1975 through 1981, City Wide Towing and Storage was perceived as the "only company capable of supplying the needed quantity of wreckers." In November of 1981, bids were opened on a contract for towing and storage services but since no other bids were received except from City Wide, the original contract was extended rather than awarding a new contract.
CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
At the February 20 Council meeting, when an ordinance was introduced to further extend the contract of City Wide through January 1, 1983, it was once again decided to open bidding because it had come to the attention of Council that another entity was prepared to submit a bid At that meeting, Council decided to extend the contract of City Wide Towing and Storage through January 1, 1983, with the understanding that: . . . . i J
(1) the contract had a 30 day termination clause and could be cancelled upon proper notice by the City; and
(2) the Director of Public Safety would again open bidding on the contract.
Mr Espy's questions centered on three concerns: (1) May the City, after advertising for bids, and receiving
one or more bids, reject said bid or bids and enter no contract?
In his opinion, the City Attorney first reviewed § 329.06 of the Columbus City Codes which sets forth a comprehensive method where expenditures in excess of $5,000 within any fiscal year shall be made.
The City Attorney concluded that all methods were followed and that common sense dictates that once bids are made the City is not necessarily bound to accept one. One could imagine many situations in which no submitted bids would be accepted. The City has provided for this eventuality by including the following language in its notice properly advertised:
"The Director of Public Safety reserves the right to reject any and all bids."
The City Attorney concluded that an advertisement for bids is not an offer, but an invitation to make an offer. Until acceptance, there is no contractual obligation on the City.
(2) May the City unilaterally cancel the contract in question?
The City Attorney noted that the contract in question contains language which specifically speaks to termination questions. It provides:
"The City shall have the right to terminate this agreement upon giving thirty (30) days written notice to the company without any claim of damage being made by the company."
Similar language allows the company the same right of termination. Accordingly, the City Attorney explained, either party may terminate upon proper notice and such right has been uniformly enforced by the courts. D. W. Kaufman Realty Co. v. Lucas, 23 Ohio Op. 470 (1925).
(3) If the existing contract had been awarded pursuant to bid, which it was not, could the City of Columbus unilaterally cancel the contract?
After a thorough review of contract law covering this question, the City Attorney concluded that if the contract signed contained the termination clauses as set forth above, either party could terminate accordingly. The answer to any hypothetical question regarding a contract would have to be made after a complete examination of the specific contract language.
Opinion No. 2-82, issued October 15, 1982, to Donald A. Ochs, Income Tax Administrator.
Mr. Ochs' inquiry concerned the taxation of gain from the sale of depreciable business property. The City Attorney responded through a brief discussion of 5 361.16 of the Columbus City Codes, 1959, which defines taxable income:
'"Taxable income' means wages, salaries, commissions and other compensation paid by any employer or employers before deductions and/or the net profits from the operation of a business, profession or other enterprise or activity adjusted in accordance with the provisions of the chapter."
The City Attorney stated that Chapter 361 of the Columbus City Codes does not speak directly to taxation of gam from the sale, exchange or disposition of depreciable business property. The City Attorney further explained that since the foregoing definition and the entire language of the Columbus City Codes regarding taxable gain does not address the question, and because the law of this State is that tax statutes are to be construed against the taxing authority and in favor of the taxpayer, Estate of Lanae v Commissioner 164 Ohio St. 500 (1956), the gain from the sale of depreciable business property is not taxable
Furthermore, prior to 1981 the City's Income Tax Division specifically instructed taxpayers that in arriving at net profits, gain from the sale, exchange or other disposition of depreciable business property should not be taken into consideration. This administrative position of the past, in the opinion ot the City Attorney, cast considerable doubt upon the scope and meaning of net profits. The City would be hard pressed to convince a taxpayer or court of law that the gains in question are taxable. 5«""=>
Opinion No. 4-82, issued April 23, 1982, to Jerry Hammond, Columbus City Councilman.
Opinion Requests 3 and 4 involved issues and questions presented by the revelation that Councilman Hammond had been convicted of a felony in the State of Indiana in 1974. Both opinion requests (one from Mayor Tom Moody and the other from Mr. Hammond) sought clarification of the legal effect of Mr. Hammond's past, present, and future votes on City Council and his qualification to serve on City Council "in the event of expungement" (sealing) of his criminal record pursuant to Ohio law.
After contacting both the Ohio Senate and House Judiciary Committee for purposes of clarifying the effect on an "expungement" on a convicted felon's right and privilege to serve in public office, the City Attorney issued a lengthy opinion concluding that an expungement would remove any legal impediment to Mr. Hammond's serving on City Council. The City Attorney opined that Mr. Hammond's past, present, and future votes on City Council were lawful and proper.
Opinion No. 5-82, issued October 19, 1982, to Donald A. Ochs, Income Tax Administrator.
The City Attorney responded to Mr. Och's request for an opinion on whether a partner may deduct business expenses from his partnership distributive shares.
After reviewing Chapter 361.16 and 361.09 of the Columbus City Codes, the City Attorney opined that net profits of a business are taxable after "provision for all ordinary and necessary expenses." The City Attorney further explained that § 361.03 exempts partnerships from taxation because a partner is taxed individually on his net profit "share."
Usually, the net profits of a partnership will equal the total net profits earned by the partners. The City Attorney noted, however, that in some instances, partnership agreements specifically require a partner to pay expenses without reimbursement. These unreimbursed expenses are deductible by the partner from the business income.
Therefore, in one opinion of the City Attorney, a partner who has received a distributive share of partnership net profits can, with the provisions of the City Codes, deduct business expenses provided the partnership agreement specifically requires the partner to pay expenses of the business without reimbursement.
Opinion No. 6-82, issued July 1, 1982, to the Franklinton Area Commission, John Spinelli, Chairperson.
The City Attorney received a written request for his opinion as to the legal/financial status of the Franklinton Area Commission. Before addressing the specific question entailed in the request, the City Attorney briefly reviewed the general powers and limitations of area commissions according to statute.
The City Attorney discussed the general nature of area commissions as advisory bodies pursuant to Chapters 3313 and 3315 of the Columbus City Codes. Area commissions have only such athority as expressly granted by ordinance (Davis v. State (1944), 127 Ohio St. 261). A copy of pertinent paragraphs from the Columbus City Codes was attached with the opinion addressed to Mr. Spinelli. The functions and duties of the Franklinton Area Commission, the City Attorney reiterated, are to represent the concerns, problems and needs of Franklinton before Council and the various City departments and commissions. The Franklinton Area Commission has no independen t legal s ta tus . THis answered the Franklinton Area Commission's initial question.
The second question posed by the Franklinton Area Commission was the constraints on funds donated or earmarked for the commission. The City Attorney noted that all funds donated to the Franklinton Area Commission are funds belonging to the City and must be deposited with the Columbus City Treasurer per Columbus City Charter §§ 88, 90 and 84.
If funds are donated specifically for the sole use of the Franklinton Area Commission, and if the City of Columbus, through councilmatic action, accepts those funds with such conditions, then § 88 of the Columbus City Charter would require the City Treasurer to abide by the provisions of the donation. The City Attorney explained that the provisions of the donation cannot expand the powers of the Franklinton Area Commission unless authorized by Council and the expenditures are always limited to those functions of area commissions contained in Columbus City Codes 3313.14.
The City Attorney also pointed out, in response to concerns about "earmarked" funds, that in the event that federal or other funds are targeted for the Franklinton area, those funds must first be deposited with the City Treasurer and cannot be held or expended independently by the Franklinton Area Commission.
CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
Opinion No. 7-82 will be issued to Hugh Dorrian, City Auditor, in early 1983.
The questions asked by Mr. Dorrian in this opinion request concern the crediting of interest earned on monies in its Street Construction, Maintenance and Repair Fund, No. 02-265, and the County Auto License Fund, No. 02-260. (These questions were researched, and a formal opinion answering those questions was rendered in early 1983.)
Opinion No. 8-82, issued November 24, 1982, to Dr. Thelma I. Schoonover, President of the Columbus Civil Service Commission.
The Columbus Civil Service Commission requested an opinion from the City Attorney concerning the contract between the Commission and the Board of Education for hearing appeals and providing other services. The question was posed because the Commission was considering either renegotiating or terminating said contract.
In 1975, a former City Attorney addressed the same issue and reached the conclusion that the Columbus Civil Service Commission is not required to perform any services for the Columbus Board of Education. However, the City Attorney concluded that even though the Columbus City Charter does not by its terms require the Civil Service Commission to perform services for the Board of Education, the Ohio Revised Code § 124.40 does make such a provision and subsequent cases, including State, ex rel. Strong v. Bd. ofEduc, 50 Ohio St. 2d 47 (1977), (per curiam) from the Ohio Supreme Court do suggest that the Civil Service Commission is mandated by law to perform the functionary services for the Board of Education.
The City Attorney explained in detail the associated legal question surrounding the relationship between the Columbus Civil Service Commission and the Columbus Board of Education. The final conclusions of the opinion are as follows:
1) The Columbus Civil Service Commission has a legal duty to provide the Columbus Board of Education those civil service functions set forth in the Ohio Revised Code, Chapter 124.
2) In accordance with current law, the City Board of Education may refuse to contribute to a municipal civil service commission for the services rendered pursuant to Revised Code Chapter 124. In the event the Board chooses to voluntarily contribute to the cost of the administration of the Civil Service Commission, pursuant to Revised Code Section 124.54, the maximum amount which the Board can contribute is the amount determined by the ratio formula therein.
3) If challenged, that portion of Revised Section 124.40 which requires the City to provide free civil service functions to the Board of Education may be held to be in violation of the City's power of local self government, and therfore, unconstitutional.
CONTRACT AND BOND APPROVAL The Columbus City Charter, § 67, requires that the City
Attorney certify in writing his approval of the form and cor-A rectness of all contracts, bonds and other instruments in . writing in which the City is concerned. During 1982, the City : Attorney reviewed and either approved or disapproved i 1,465 contracts, bonds and other written instruments on be-
,.i half of the City. Some of the more important cases handled by the City
Attorney's office in 1982 are described below:
Q. Alleged Deprivation of Constitutional Rights. Brewer v. Hunt, et a!., Case No. C-2-82-1155, is a federal
i case alleging false arrest and illegal detention in violation of 42 U.S.C § 1983 and the Fourth and Fourteenth Amend-
i ments of the U.S. Constitution. Plaintiff is demanding $200,000 in damages. The case is still pending.
Johnson v. Cottrill, et al., Case No. C-2-80-377, is a civil rights and wrongful death action involving the police shoot-
,.ii ing of Larry Mennifield on October 12, 1978. The action was io originally filed in the Franklin County Court of Common 4 Pleas, but after that court granted certain defense motions,
Ml the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the state court action and • .1 refiled the same lawsuit in the Federal District Court. The i a damages sought total $2,600,000. Individual officers have re-11 tained private counsel; this office represented police super-/ visory personnel, the Mayor, Safety Director, and the City of
1 .3 Columbus, all of whom have moved to dismiss the action because the plaintiff has failed to respond to discovery requests.
Little Men, Inc. v. City of Columbus, et al., United States District Court, Case No. C-2-7864. The plaintiff, Little Men,
Inc., dba the Needle's Eye Bar, alleged in its complaint in federal court that the City of Columbus, its police force, various individual officers, and certain Columbus citizens conspired against the Needle's Eye Bar located in the vicinity of the downtown south area in an attempt to run the bar out of business. Plaintiff asserted that the motivation for this unlawful action was because the bar was black owned and operated. The defendants generally agreed that there were considerable police actions taken against the bar but such actions were lawful and a result of the bar being the center of prostitution in the area. Plaintiff sought damages in the amount of $11,000,000. Some of the private defendants and some of the Columbus officals and certain claims raised in the complaint were dismissed upon motion by the federal judge and the case was scheduled for trial on December 13, 1982. Shortly before trial the matter was settled for $5,500. The Needle's Eye Bar had lost its license a couple of years ago, incurred considerable sums in discovery costs and attorney fees, and had to pay back taxes to IRS when discrepancies in its reported income were discovered while this case was being prepared for trial by City attorneys.
Tim Rice v. City of Columbus, et al, Case No. C-2-82-1103, was filed in the U. S. District Court seeking damages in the amount of $600,000. Plaintiff has alleged violation of his constitutional rights under § 1983 of the U. S. Code, Title 42, arising out of his participation as a contractor in the Housing Rehabilitation Program. The basis of alleged discrimination is religion. Discovery is continuing in this case.
White v. Moody, et al, Case No. 79CV-08-4185, is a civil rights and wrongful death action concerning the death of Noble Jackson, a pretrail detainee at the Women's Correctional Institute. The damage demand totals $44,000. Discovery is continuing in this case and presently the matter is scheduled for trial May 2, 1983.
b. Stale Tort Claims. Bailey v. Kovach, Case No. 81CV-08-4120, was filed in
1981, involved police officers as plaintiff and defendant. Plaintiff was injured by defendant during an emergency run and sought damages of $500,000. The defendant officer was represented by the City Attorney's office and had judgment rendered in his favor in Common Pleas Court.
Sandra Bankston v. City of Columbus, et al., Case No. 81CV-07-3552. This was an action involving malicious prosecution and false arrest alleged by the plaintiff who sought damages in the sum of $100,000. Plaintiff had been arrested for shoplifting at a store called Waterbeds & Stuff. Motions for dismissal were filed on behalf of the City, its officials, and employees. The court granted all of those motions. The City paid no money in this case.
Empire Properties, Inc. v. City of Columbus, Case No. 82CV-04-2102, is an action for property damage to a warehouse and its contenst during a fire on April 17, 1980. The plaintiff claims that the building and contents could have been saved but were totally destroyed because of a failure in the water pressure which allegedly hampered firefighting efforts. The prayer is for $1.25 million; discovery is continuing.
Rosa Foreman v. David Barr, et at., Case No. 81CV-02-974. This is a personal injury case which stems from an automobile accident which arose when a truck driven by a City employee and an automobile being driven by the plaintiff collided in an intersection. The plaintiff claimed permanent injuries and was seeking $250,000 in damages. During the discovery stage of this action, the City succeeded in having this case dismissed by the court for plaintiffs failure to comply with discovery requests ordered by the Court. This case is now closed.
Margaret Jenkins v.H&R Body Shop & City of Columbus, Case No. 81CV-03-1496. This was a slip and fall case filed against H & R Body Shop and the City of Columbus seeking damages in the sum of $200,000. Plaintiff allegedly sustained serious knee injuries when she fell on the "sidewalk" as she was leaving H & R Body Shop on May 29, 1979. A jury was impaneled on December 1, 1982, and trial proceeded for the next five days until the plaintiff and H & R Body Shop agreed to settle the case for $10,000. The City paid no money in this action and was dismissed with prejudice by all parties.
Marge Leeseberg v. City of Columbus, et al, Case No. 81CV-08-4090. This was a personal injury case of a 50-year old woman who was walking to the Palmer Haus from the southeast corner of Beck and Mohawk. She was accompanied by her husband on one side and her son on the other side, each of whom were holding her elbow. She noticed that there were bricks missing from the sidewalk in front of
the Palmer Haus as she approached the building Despite this knowledge, she attempted to step over the hole and failed to negotiate that move. She fell and fractured her wrist. Through treatment by an orthopedic specialist, she has received almost a full range of motion. According to her specialist and our doctor, Dr. Hauser, she has very minima limitation in her range of motion with that wrist, bpeciai damages in this case amount to $566.03. The complaint prayed for $30,000. In addition to the City of Columbus, the plaintiff also sued the owner of the property, the lessee of the property, the sublessee of the property and Palmer McNeil personally was joined as a third-party defendant. The lessee was dismissed out of the personal injury action as it was clear that there was no liability except perhaps a contractual liability on the part of the lessee. There was also little question that Palmer McNeil was not individually liable on the claim. The owner and the sublessee, Palmer Haus Company, Inc., were willing to contribute to a settlement. On the morning of trial, the case was settled for a total of $6,000, each of the three participating defendants contributing $2,000 apiece.
Maynard v. Waugh, et al., Case No. 82CV-11-6635, is a case in which false arrest and excessive use of force has been alleged against two City police officers. Plaintiff has requested damanges in the amount of $220,000. The case presently is in the discovery stage.
Robert J. Rohrbach v. Frederick Byerley, et al, Case No. 81CV-07-3553. In this action plaintiff filed a malicious prosecution and false arrest complaint against the City of Columbus, various Columbus police officers, and a private defendant. Plaintiff sought damages in the sum of $450,000. After depositions were taken it was clear that the private defendant had selected plaintiffs mug shot from an array of mug shots at the Columbus Police Department identifying plaintiff as a person who assaulted the private defendant and committed other criminal acts which eventually led to plaintiffs arrest. Subsequently, the private citizen had misgivings and refused to go forward with these charges against the plaintiff. The plaintiff and the private citizen agreed to a settlement of $2,100; the City refused to pay any money in this case and was dismissed along with the Columbus police officers.
Hobert Lee Smith v. City of Columbus & Consolidated Railway Corp., Case No. 78CV-06-3020. This was a personal injury action that arose out of an incident July 24, 1977, when plaintiff, Hobert Lee Smith, allegedly fell through a hole on the High Street viaduct. The hole had been the result of a CON-RAIL train carrying a high load striking the underside of the viaduct as the train passed underneath it. The train-bridge collision occurred in December of 1976 and because the viaduct was scheduled for destruction to make way for the new convention center and Hyatt Hotel in the vicinity, City officials decided to barricade the northbound lanes of the bridge where the hole was located. There was some suggestion that there continued to be pedestrian traffic across the bridge and in the vicinity of the hole. Construction in the area progressed more slowly than what the City anticipated and in July of 1977 the hole was still in the bridge when Hobert Lee Smith was found underneath the hole lying on the CON-RAIL tracks. There were no witnesses to the incident; presumably Smith fell through the hole as he was returning from a downtown bar to his apartment near the Ohio State University. Smith suffered severe head injuries which were complicated by a history of epileptic seizures and following this accident he was rendered incapable of taking care of himself or engaging in any employment for the remainder of his life. The Probate Court of Crawford County had appointed his parents as his legal guardians. Plaintiff was unmarried and in his twenties and unemployed at the time of his accident. Melvin Belli appeard as plaintiffs attorney and initially made a demand of 1.2 million dollars on the City of Columbus for settlement purposes. A jury trial was commenced on May 24 1982 before Judge Rader and on the second day of trial the parties

Ujah v. Verne, et al., Case No. 82CV-08-4609, is a case filed
in the Court of Common Pleas alleging harm to reputation and invasion of privacy by a Columbus police officer. Damages in the amount of $35,000 has been requested by the plaintiff. This case is currently in the discovery stage, c. Employment Practices—Discrimination.
Youla Brant, et al. v. City of Columbus, et al, United States District Court, Case No. C-2-75-425. This case was filed in 1975 as a class-action by women alleging discrimination by the Civil Service Commission of the City in regard to entry-level testing for the position of police officer and against the City in general for establishing a discriminatory dual-classification system with regard to the positions of "policewoman and policeman." The suit was brought alleging violation of 42 U.S.C. § 2000(e)—Title VII and 42 U.S.C. § 1983—the Civil Rights Act.
Judgement was entered for the plaintiffs in 1978 and Judge Robert Duncan ordered various injunctive relief including, inter alia, an elimination of the discreminatory testing; a 5-year hiring goal for women and 25% per class; as well as compensatory damages, back-pay, and attorney fees. To date the City has paid $456,000 in compensatory relief, back pay and attorney fees. The claims of 52 class-members for back pay remain in litigation. The United States District Court has appointed a special master who is presently holding back-pay hearings and making determinations. It is expected that the back-pay portion of the litigation will terminate in the calendar year 1983.
Catalina v. City (several causes of action were filed in different courts). Former employee of Municipal Civil Service Commission is seeking reinstatement and damages for alleged deprivation of due process, race and sex discrimination, age discrimination, and denial of equal pay and promotional opportunities. A State cause of action filed against two former Commission employees as individuals was dismissed recently for failure to state a claim against the former administrators as individuals. This case has been partially dismissed on a summary judgment motion as a result of prior State judgments against the plaintiff.
Rose Mary Dauis, et al. v. City of Columbus, Case No. 82AP-639. This is one of several cases on appeal to the Franklin County Court of Appeals from decisions by the Court of Common Pleas upholding the determinations of the Civil Service Commission that it did not have jurisdiction to hear appeal of employees who were terminated from their CETA positions as a result of lack of funding. These cases involved numerous legal issues pertaining to civil service and federal funding. The Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the City of Columbus and no appeal has been taken from that decision.
Edwards v. City of Columbus, Case No. C-2-78-951. A former wastewater operator filed a race discrimination complaint against the City as a result of his dismissal for failure to score high enough on a written examination for the operator position. Plaintiff had been employed as an operator for three years prior to failing the written examination. Plaintiff alleges that the written examination discriminated against him on the basis of race and that City officials further discriminated against him by removing him from his job on the basis of the results of the examination. Plaintiff seeks $100,000 in back pay plus reinstatement to his former position. This matter has been set down for trial in federal court in 1983.
F.O.P. v. City of Columbus, Case No. 82CV-11-7141, is a case filed by the F.O.P. and eighteen female police officers, married to police officers, alleging a loss of benefits due to the manner in which the health insurance benefits are administered.
Barbara Grano v. Department of Development of the City of Columbus, et al, United States District Court, Case Nos. 78-3161 and 78-3162. This case involved allegations of a female employee of the Department of Development regarding sex-based discrimination in regard to promotion. Judgment for the plaintiff was granted by the District Court and the City appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, which reversed and remanded the case to the trial court for further findings. After completion of the trial court's proceedings, the case was once again returned to the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeals which issued a final judgment in favor of the City. The opinion of the Sixth Circuit was helpful in clarifying the burden of proof in disparate treatment cases.
Gilbert v. City of Columbus, Case No. 73082782(10413)0982, was filed with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission in September of 1982, with the plaintiff alleging race discrimination against the City. The Commission dismissed the complaint finding that discriminatory practices did not exist.

Clyde Haynie, et al. v. Bernard T. Chupka, et al, Federal District Court, Case No. C-2-73-401. This case is a class action lawsuit brought by black applicants for the position of Columbus police officer alleging discrimination under 42 U.S.C. § 2000(e)—Title VII and 42 U.S.C § 1983—The Civil Rights Act, in regard to the entry-level testing of the Civil Service Commission of the City. Judgment was issued in favor of plaintiffs by the District Court in 1978. Judge Robert Duncan ordered back pay and attorneys fees which the City has paid in the aggregate final amount of approximately $35,000. The court entered permanent mandatory injunction regarding the elimination of the discriminatory entry-level examination-of Civil Service, a hiring goal of 30% black officers per class to an overall departmental goal of 14.9% representation, and a validation of any selection devices in accordance with Equal Opportunity Guidelines. At the direction of the City Attorney's Office, Department of Public Safety, and Division of Police, the Civil Service Commission engaged in a 2'/2 year validation study of its present entry-level examination for the position of police officer culminating in a presentation of validation evidence to the District Court on November 9, 1982. Presently, the decision of the District Court on that issue is pending.
Janson, et al. v. City of Columbus, Case No. 052-80-2078. Rejected applicants for the position of police officer filed administrative charges alleging handicap discrimination after rejection by the Columbus Civil Service Commission for failure to meet the minimum uncorrected vision standard for the position of police officer. After a public hearing, the Hearing Examiner recommended that the Civil Rights Commission order the City to cease and desist further use of the uncorrected vision standard. This matter is currently pending before the Civil Rights Commission for final determination. The complainants seek jobs as police officers retroactive to 1981, back pay, seniority and other benefits.
Marshall v. Fadley, Case No. C-2-79-1006. A former A;sis-tant Fire Chief filed an action seeking damages and reinstatement as a result of an alleged constructive discharge as a result of certain First Amendment violations of plaintiffs' freedom of speech by high ranking administrators of the Division of Fire and Department of Public Safety. This case

!> d. City Contracts and Services. S&M Constructors v. City of Columbus (1982), 70 Ohio St.
: 2d 69, 434 N.E.2d 1349. The contractor sued the City for U $1,350,000 representing additional expenses necessitated by J3 subsurface conditions differing materially from those de-•rz scribed in subsurface reports prepared for the City and in made available to prospective bidders on a sewer tunneling
I project. The City disclaimed all subsurface investigation ./ work as incomplete, not part of the contract documents, and n not warranted to show the actual subsurface conditions, and 3 deleted the standard changed conditions clause, the com-
.,<i bined purpose of which was to allocate the risk of subsur-t.1 face soil conditions to the successful bidder-contractor. The J Ohio Supreme Court unanimously affirmed lower court j)i judgments in favor of the City and found that a municipality .nmay contractually disclaim its liability to a contractor of a <a sewer construction project for additional expenses necessit a t e d by conditions differing materially from those de
scribed in subsurface reports prepared for the municipality .iand made available to prospective bidders.
• te. Constitutional and Statutory Interpretation. City of Columbus v. KFC Ntl Mgmt. Co., Case No. 78CV-
'(08-3819. This is an income tax case wherein the issue was the method by which KFC National Management Company must compute its City Income tax. § 361.20, C.C.C., provides i hat where the taxpayer does business both inside and out-
side the City of Columbus and where his books and records disclose with reasonable accuracy that portion of the income derived from business conducted within the City limits, he must use that basis to compute his City Income Taxes. If the books and records do not disclose with reasonable accuracy that portion of the income which is derived from business conducted within the City limits, then the taxpayer is entitled to use a three-part formula averaging the ratios of property in the City of Columbus to property everywhere else, sales within the City to sales everywhere else, and payroll within the City of Columbus to payroll everywhere else times the gross corporate income. Extensive discovery was pursued to ascertain how the books and records for KFC National Management Company were kept and to analyze whether or not these books and records did disclose with reasonable accuracy that portion of the income that could be attributed to the business conducted inside the City limits. An expert accountant was hired to assist this office in evaluating the accounting procedures of the defendant corporation. It was the City of Columbus' position that KFC National Management Company's books and records did disclose with reasonable accuracy that portion of the income which was attributable to the City of Columbus. For instance, in 1972, KFC National Management Company originally filed its City Income Tax return using separate accounting. Three years later it filed an amended return for 1972 using the allocation formula. By using the allocation formula, KFC National Management Company managed to reduce its tax liability by over $8,000. After intensive negotiations, a settlement agreement was reached whereby KFC National Management Company agreed to pay to the City of Columbus $71,175 as, and for, its income taxes for the years 1973, 1974, 1975 and 1976, plus interest, and the City of Columbus agreed to allow KFC National Management Company to henceforth file its income tax returns using the allocation formula.
f. Regulatory Commissions. In 1982 the office participated in six proceedings regard
ing utility rates affecting the citizens of Columbus. In those proceedings this office, in conjunction with the Department of Energy and Telecommunication, closely reviewed the utility requests before the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) to determine if the amounts requested were excessive or the proposed rate structures unreasonable. All totaled, the office spent nearly five and a half months in hearings before the PUCO in 1982.
The significant cases in 1982 involved general rate cases for the three major utilities serving Columbus, Ohio Bell Telephone, Columbia Gas of Ohio, Inc., and Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Company.
Ohio Bell Telephone. Two major rate cases for Ohio Bell Telephone were heard by the PUCO in 1982. Hearings in the first case were conducted during the month of February and a decision rendered in April. Hearings in the second case occupied the month of October with a decision issued by the PUCO in December. In both cases the City of Columbus was a member of a coalition comprising seventeen municipalities and one county. The coalition pooled their resources in order to hire an expert consultant and special legal counsel. This office contributed, as part of the City contribution, the services of an attorney as co-counsel in prosecution of both cases.
In the first Ohio Bell rate case the coalition undertook only issues related to rate design. As a direct result of the coalition's actions, $36,000,000 in revenue responsibility was shifted away from basic exchange customers.
In the second Ohio Bell rate case, the coalition advocated issues involving rate design which shifted $35,000,000 in revenue away from basic exchange customers. In addition, two other positions solely advocated by the coalition resulted in a savings of $4,200,000 by all customers of Ohio Bell Telephone. The coalition has requested that the PUCO reconsider several issues in this case which total an additional $32,000,00 in savings. A decision on the coalition's request is expected in early 1983.
Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric. In December 1981, C&SOE filed an application for an increase in the base rates for its Ohio customers. C&SOE sought an increase of $100 million. The hearings on C&SOE's application began in June of 1982 and continued until September 1982.
On November 5, 1982, the PUCO issued its order in the proceeding granting C&SOE only $40,000,00 out of a $100,000,000 request. The office successfully advocated positions which saved resident ial customers nearly $11,000,000. In addition, the office successfully argued to retain a low use load management rate which encourages

energy conservation by offering a lower charge per k w h to all customers who keep their month ly usage below a set level. Retent ion of th is rate resul ted in substant ial savings to customers within Columbus since over half qualified for the rate.
LAND ACQUISITION DIVISION The City Attorney, th rough the Land Acquisit ion Divi
sion, is responsible for the acquisi t ion of all real proper ty needed by City depar tments . This office is staffed by the Chief Real Estate Attorney and five (5) negotiators .
Whenever a City depa r tmen t reques ts that a certain parcel of land be acquired for a project, t he Land Acquisi t ion Division works closely with the depa r tmen t to insure that acquisition is performed in a m a n n e r designed to satisfy the needs of the project and minimize the inconvenience to the landowner. Before acquisit ion begins, independen t appraisals are obtained for the purpose of de termining the fair market value of the desired property. Using these fair marke t value est imates, the negotiators contact the proper ty owners for the purpose of explaining the project and initiating the acquisition. Every a t t empt is m a d e to answer all of t h e landowner ' s ques t ions abou t the compensa t i on due and the effect the project may have on t h e property. Where applicable, the negotiator also informs landowners of their eligibility for relocation benefits in addi t ion to the compensa t ion being paid for the property.
In the majority of s i tuat ions t h e City and l andowners are able to reach agreement and the purchase is comple ted in a manne r similar to a convent ional real es ta te t ransact ion. Where a purchase cannot b e negotiated, it may be completed th rough t h e use of the City's eminen t domain power. The exercise of the eminent domain power mus t be authorized by City Council and involves the filing of an action in the Franklin County C o m m o n Pleas Court wherein a jury will be asked to de te rmine the fair marke t value of the property.
In addit ion to the acquisi t ion function, the Land Acquisition Division and the Chief Real Estate Attorney provide the City technical and legal assis tance in regard to all real es tate ma t t e r s i nc lud ing t h e sale a n d leas ing of p roper ty , t h e estimation of proper ty values and the p lanning and implementat ion of special deve lopmen t projects.
A further activity of the Land Acquisi t ion is the receipt of all property tax bills for City-owned land and thei r distr ibution, when applicable, to the various divisions for payment . Applications are filed for exempt ion from taxat ion w h e n land is qualified, and if an applicat ion is chal lenged t h e Land Acquisi t ion Division represen ts t h e City before t h e Ohio State Board of Tax Equalization. In 1982, 37 of 43 applications for real es tate tax exempt ion were granted, 1 was denied, and 5 were pend ing at the end of the year. Five hearings before the Ohio Sta te Board of Tax Equal izat ion were at tended. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage, the Depar tment of Development , the Ohio Center, and, on two occasions, the Division of Airpor ts , were r ep resen ted at these hearings.
During 1982 the Land Acquisi t ion Division par t ic ipated in the acquisit ion of the following parcels of proper ty and/or easements in connect ion wi th various City projects.

The Claims Sect ion inves t iga tes c la ims agains t t h e City for personal injury a n d p rope r ty d a m a g e as well as o the r losses alleged to have been caused by s o m e gove rnmen ta l action. These claims are p rocessed for denia l or se t t lement . All claims of $750 or less are p rocessed and sett led directly by the Claims Sect ion, whi le t h o s e in excess of $750 m u s t be approved by Counci l . Claims in excess of $2,500 requ i re approval by ord inance .
The figures con t a ined in th i s r epo r t reflect only those claims processed by t h e Cla ims Sect ion of the City Attorney's office. There is still no cen t ra l reposi tory for da ta on all claims against t h e City in a given year. This is also t rue for damage collections.
Two summar i e s are inc luded for 1982 cla ims paymen t s . T h e first l is ts by divis ion or d e p a r t m e n t t h e n u m b e r of claims processed (for denia l or se t t lement ) , t h e n u m b e r settled for p a y m e n t a n d t h e tota l s e t t l emen t a m o u n t s .

T h e final a m o u n t was d e t e r m i n e d by t h e Division. J u d g m e n t s against t h e City and se t t l emen t of civil l awsui t s are no t included in the first s u m m a r y .
There were 17 p a y m e n t s m a d e by t h e City as a resu l t of j u d g m e n t s a n d l a w s u i t s e t t l e m e n t s . T h e s e t o t a l l e d $207,615.00 in 1982 as c o m p a r e d w i th $1,044,110.80 in 1981.

Section. This office maintains regular contact with such divisions and provides whatever advice or assistance may be needed.
While the above-noted "decentralization" has lessened the burden on the Claims Section, it has further clouded the true picture regarding total claims against the City.
Because recent court decisions have eliminated the defense of governmental immunity for Ohio municipalities, the establishment of a formal "risk management program" would appear to be beneficial to the long term financial health of the City. The Claims Section, at the direction of the City Attorney, has investigated and pursued the development of such a program which could help identify the risks of loss for Columbus and could reduce or eliminate that exposure.
The Claims Section strove throughout 1982 to update accounts reveivable, closing many accounts where it became apparent further efforts to collect would be futile. These kinds of accounts were either past statute, where the other party could not be located after repeated attempts, and/or where the claim appeared doubtful in the first place. This has allowed the various divisions and the claims office to concentrate on those accounts more likely to be paid.
Also, during 1982, at the suggestion of the Claims Section of the City Attorney's office, several divisions, most significantly the Division of Engineering and Construction, began preparing estimated bills rather than waiting for damage work to be completed before billing. This has led to a quicker resolution of many accounts.
The Claims Section continues to lobby for a comprehensive drawing together of all computerized billings across divisions so that whenever a bill goes to a particular person or company, all outstanding damages can be collected at one time.
PROSECUTOR DIVISION SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES
During 1982, the Prosecutor Division represented the State of Ohio and City of Columbus in the prosecution of all misdemeanor cases, traffic and criminal, filed in the Franklin County, Ohio Municipal Court. Further, throughout the year, the Prosecutor Division rendered legal advice to the Columbus Police Department, various City divisions involved in enforcement activities, the Franklin County Sheriffs Office, the Ohio State Highway Patrol, the Ohio State University Police Department, and the many other suburban and township law enforcement agencies within Franklin County, Ohio.
Also, pursuant to the contracts negotiated by the Columbus City Attorney, authorized pursuant to ordinance of City Council, this Division represented the following suburbs in the Franklin County Municipal Court on traffic and criminal cases as well as Bureau of Motor Vehicle petitions under O.R.C. Sections 4507.40 and 4511.191:
Bexley, Darbydale, Dublin, Grandview Heights, Grove City, Groveport, Hilliard, Lockbourne, Marble Cliff, Minerva Park, New Rome, Obetz, Reynoldsburg, Riverlea, Upper Arlington, Urbancrest, Valleyview, Westerville, Whitehall, and Worthington.
A total of 149,677 new criminal and traffic charges were filed in the Franklin County Municipal Court in 1982. This total included 37,521 criminal charges and 112,156 traffic charges. This was an increase from 1981 of 746 criminal charges (+ 2%) and a decrease of 3,105 traffic charges ( - 2%).
Once again, the category of criminal cases which had the largest number of charges filed was disorderly conduct at 8,452, an increase from 7,850 in 1981. There were 1,657 misdemeanor assault charges, an increase from 1,624 in 1981 and 1,713 in 1980. To put the number of assault charges in perspective in 1982, there were 333 domestic violence charges filed this year, up from 330 in 19C1. Domestic violence is aimed, of course, at what its name denotes, violence in a domestic setting between either husband or wife. 4,069 petty theft charges were filed in 1982, as compared to 3,211 such charges in 1981, and 2,543 in 1980. Thus, the petty theft caseload in the Prosecutor's Division has increased 60% over a two year period. This increase can be attributed to the poor economic conditions existing for the past two years.
In 1982, 6,494 charges of Operating a Motor Vehicle While Under the Influence of Alcohol and/or Drugs were filed. This represents a decrease of 114 charges or 1.7%. It should also be noted, that there were 4,782 OMVI charges in 1979, with the 1982 caseload representing a 35.8% increase in a three year period.
The Report of Juries for 1982 prepared by the jury commission for the court indicates a total of 199 criminal and traffic jury trials were conducted, with a conviction rate of 64.2% of those cases that went to verdict.
Due to computer capability, and prosecutor indexing of cases, figures are available for the first time for non-jury trials, and are included with the jury report. Those figures indicate that 935 non-jury trials were conducted, with 693 convictions (74.1%) and 242 acquittals (25.9%).
To accomplish the task of prosecuting the cases mentioned above, as well as the ancillary work associated with such an undertaking, the Prosecutor Division includes a number of subdivisions:
Trial Staff, Appellate Section, Duty Prosecutor, Intake Section, Night Prosecutor Program, Witness Assistance Program, Police Agency Liaison, Administrative Assistant to the City Prosecutor, First Assistant City Prosecutor, and Secretarial Staff.
The Trial Staff included 16 to 18 assistant prosecutors during 1982. Each prosecutor was assigned to arraignment courts, bench trials and jury trial courts, and duty prosecutor, dependent on the duties of the judge to whom they were assigned. The single assignment system, instituted in 1980, was continued in 1982, with several changes in assignment being made to provide professional development with different judges. Also, three legal interns certified by the Ohio Supreme Court were utilized to handle traffic arraignment court and hearings regarding petitions filed against the Bureau of Motor Vehicles pursuant to the Implied Consent Law (Section 4511.191, O.R.C.) and the Driver's License Suspension for accumulation of twelve points within a two-year period (Section 4507.40, O.R.C).
The Appellate Section continued its efforts in 1982 where cases were briefed and argued in the Franklin County Court of Appeals, 10th Appellate District, and Ohio Supreme Court.
During its fourth year of existence, the position of Duty Prosecutor continued in its important role in the day-to-day operation of the Prosecutor's Division. Two trial prosecutors are assigned for portions of one week on a rotating basis as the Duty Prosecutor. The Duty Prosecutor's daily responsibilities include:
Screening cases for criminal charges referred by the Intake Section, giving advice to police officers, screening charges to be filed by City departments, providing discovery, and the handling of numerous miscellaneous legal matters that arise and require the attention of a prosecutor.
The Intake Section of the Prosecutor's Division performs the function of interviewing all non-police complaints. As a result of the interview, the Intake Section may schedule a Night Prosecutor hearing, refer the complaint to another appropriate agency, or if a charge is to be filed, refer the facts to the Duty Prosecutor for evaluation. During 1982, the section conducted 19,403 intake interviews. Out of these interviews, 9,652 were scheduled for Night Prosecutor Program (interpersonal) hearings, 8,499 were referred elsewhere, were immediately resolved or other action was taken, and 1,252 resulted in formal charges. In addition, 410 of these were filed after Night Prosecutor Program hearings.
The Night Prosecutor Program, winner of an LEAA exemplary project award in 1974, and recently the subject of an article in Time Magazine, continued to effectively divert to mediation hearings complaints which would have otherwise resulted in Municipal Court cases. During 1982, the program scheduled a total of 27,171 hearings. The hearings consisted of three basic categories:
Interpersonal, which are directed to those criminal misdemeanor complaints brought by private citizens; and administrative, which are directed to misdemeanor complaints brought by the Columbus Health Department, Bureau of Motor Vehicles, Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Company, the Columbus Public Library, and Columbus Code Enforcement; and bad checks which are directed to misdemeanor bad check complaints.
The primary goal of the program is to reduce the Municipal Court case load by redirecting minor criminal disputes to a forum which will result in an acceptable resolution to the parties involved.
In 1982 the Night Prosecutor Program was utilized for the first time on Code Enforcement complaints. All Code Enforcement violations, which include building, housing, zoning, and litter complaints, were processed through the Prosecutor's Office before a charge was prosecuted. The procedure includes a warning letter from the Prosecutor's Office, if there has been no compliance with an order, a Night Prosecutor hearing seeking compliance, and finally, duty prosecutor review of the case if it has not been resolved and a charge is to be filed.
The innovative Witness Assistance Program continued its effective and valuable service to the City Attorney's Office,
10 CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
the court, and the community in 1982. The program s purpose is to assist witnesses to or victims of crimes in aeaung with the criminal justice system. A full-time coordinator supervises a group of community volunteers and part-time assistants together with student placements from local universities to escort citizens to court and provide other services of an informational and supportive nature.
The Police Agency Liaison Program in 1982 included full-time assignments as follows:
Columbus Police Department—one sergeant and tour officers,
Ohio State Highway Patrol—one sergeant, and The Franklin County Sheriffs Office—one deputy.
The liaison officers provide services from their respective agencies that include appearances at all pre-trials, obtaining necessary facts for prosecutor's files for case preparation, coordination of officer court appearances, and arrangements of court appearances. The liaison program has handled a high volume of cases, has improved the prosecution efforts in those cases, and has been successful in saving many tax dollars.
In 1982, the Prosecutor's Division, with the help of a grant from the Ohio Highway Safety Department, initiated a "drunk driving task force" to concentrate efforts in more effectively prosecuting those cases. A separate report is included on that effort.
In 1980 the City Attorney's Office, Prosecutor's Division was awarded a grant by LEAA to provide a management information system for the City Prosecutor's Office. During 1981 there was much work done on grant variances, the bidding and selection process, and the final contract negotiations and a WANG 220 SVP system was purchased and software development and design began. It took many hours of concentrated research and brain-storming to evaluate what type of data needed to be included in an effective computerized system and what specific goals and objectives needed to be met in 1981. This continued in 1982 with the acquisition of an updated WANG System with a grant from the Ohio Department of Highway Safety to collect figures on closed traffic and OMVI cases. The following three programs which had been designed and tested in 1981 were implemented and operational in 1982:
1. Closed Case Location: The Prosecutor's Office closes approximately 2000 cases per month. Approximately 400 to 500 closed cases need to be retrieved on an annual basis, of these there had been only a 60% success ratio in locating the closed file. Retrieving a closed file took an average of three hours per retrieval. The computerized system enables us to retrieve closed case files in an average time of 15 minutes thus providing a great saving not only in secretarial time but also in man-hour costs.
2. Prosecutor Information System: This has been designed to provide an effective management tool relating to each prosecutor's overall performance and determining the various median guidelines for prosecution on cases. It covers such areas as the type of charge, the disposition, if plea bargaining was involved, and if so what determining factors may have been present in those cases that were plea bargained. These factors, together with other variables, provide a comparison basis for management to determine what occurs with each prosecutor in the courtroom setting. This program permitted the report and breakdown of terminated cases for the first time.
3. intake NPP Statistics: There had been little, if any, accurate data reflecting what type of cases or problems the Intake/Night Prosecutor Departments of this office diverted from the criminal court system. There has been concern within the judicial system of Franklin County regarding several areas which include jail overcrowding, the increase in the number of criminal charges filed, and the success or lack thereof of diversion programs. Even though a successful manual system was developed in 1980, due to volume it had been difficult to compile regular statistical reports. This data base incorporates specific types of complaints, variables regarding the types of persons making the complaints, and the resolutions of these complaints. The information collected provides accurate statistics and an effective management tool not only for use of this office but to benefit the entire criminal justice system.
The Chief Prosecutor in the Prosecutor's Division was named by the Governor of the State of Ohio to serve on the Governor s Study Group on alcohol-impaired driving in Ohio in 1981, which continued in 1982. This was especially
appropriate in light of the fact that this office prosecuted over 6,000 charges of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol in 1982. Legislation was introduced as a result of the findings of the Governor's Study Group, and the Chief Prosecutor represented this office by testifying at both House and Senate hearings on this bill, which was passed, and is effective 3-16-83.
During the Ohio State Fair, as in the past, in the summer of 1982, the Prosecutor's Division assigned individual prosecutors to work at the Ohio State Highway Patrol Headquarters at the fairgrounds for purposes of providing legal advice regarding criminal offenses that occurred on the midway during the course of the fair. This assignment was rotated, and felt beneficial by both the prosecutors assigned and the highway patrol.
Contained in the following pages are tables, summary of cases, number and type of charges, together with individual reports for various duties and functions of the Prosecutor's Division.

DRUNK DRIVING TASK FORCE—1982 In 1982, the Ohio Department of Highway Safety awarded
a two-part grant of National Traffic Safety Administration funds to the City Attorney's Office Prosecutor's Division for the prosecution of traffic charges. The first part of the grant was spent to purchase software changes in the management information system already in place and additional upgraded hardware. At the conclusion of the first part of the grant, the information gathered was analyzed. As a result of that analysis, three types of cases involving charges of operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs were identified for enhanced prosecution: cases involving the use of drugs of abuse, cases involving an arrestee's refusal to give a chemical test, and cases involving arrestees whose chemical tests were in the range of .15 to .19% blood alcohol.
The second part of the grant was spent on the purchase of services of three special prosecutors and a "drunk-driving task force" technician. Working on the three types of cases previously noted, the special prosecutors under the direction of a prosecutor already on staff handled almost 700 cases to conclusion between May 18 and September 30, 1982. At the conclusion of the second part of the grant and in order to insure even handedness of treatment, two prosecu-
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982
tors on staff were assigned to handle the case already screened by the task force but not then concluded. Another 264 cases were closed by this follow-up group between October 1 and December 31, 1982.
The impact of the grant was substantial. Of the 900 + cases handled by the task force follow-up, convictions on the principal charge of operating a motor vehicle under the influence were obtained in over 52% of those cases. The conviction rate for all OMVI cases handled by the Prosecutor's Division increased from the pre-task force level of 35.5% (January-March, 1982) to the level of 45.9% (July-September, 1982). Although the task force was not funded beyond September 30, its presence altered case disposition patterns after the conclusion of the task force. The conviction level between October and December, 1982 was 49.9%. This change in handling of operating motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol and/or drug charges between the first quarter of 1982 and the fourth quarter of 1982 clearly indicates that the presence of the task force changed how cases are resolved in Franklin County Municipal Court.
1982 ANNUAL REPORT OF APPELLATE ACTIVITY On January 1, 1982, the Appellate Section had nineteen
(19) cases pending and during the ensuing year a total of fifty (50) new cases were appealed. On December 31, 1982, there were thirty-one (31) cases pending in the Appellate Section.
During the year, forty-two (42) cases were pursued to argument and thirty-eight (38) briefs were written, including six
I (6) successful Memorandums Contra (and one [1] unsuccessful Reply Brief) in the Supreme Court of Ohio.
Of Appellate Section cases in which decisions were rendered in the Court of Appeals, twenty-seven (27) cases were
> decided in favor of the prosecution, seven (7) against and error was confessed in one (1). The Supreme Court of Ohio
i overruled six (6) motions to certify convictions, but found Section 2315.08(B), Columbus City Code, to be unconstitutional. In City v. Caudill, 82AP-561 and 562, the City agreed and the Court of Appeals confirmed that a double sentence
i could not arise from convictions of resisting arrest and • assault under the facts of that case. The cases remaining - were dismissed for one reason or another at appellant's > costs, and all defense motions for reconsideration were ; answered and overruled.
The win/loss ratio (exclusive of rulings on interim motions i and motions to reconsider) is over eighty per cent (80%) t favorable.
The following issues were presented in some of the appeals: (1) The fact that a defendant was initially advised of implied consent requirements at the scene of his arrest does not render the subsequent giving of such requirements at the police station (per statutory dictate) a nullity, and his refusal to submit to an alcohol test both times results in a valid driver's rights suspension. (Damelio v. BMV, 82AP-61) (2) Officers who allow an OMVI arrestee more than one telephone call for advice in response to their demand that he take a chemical test must reiterate to the defendant a final demand to take the test following a reasonable period of cooperation before the submission of a "refusal" will be sustained. (King v. BMV, 82AP-92) (3) An appellant cannot, for the first time, raise the issue of denial of a speedy trial in the Court of Appeals. (Worthington v. Ogilby, 82AP-145) (4) Columbus ordinance penalizing failure to exercise "reasonable and ordinary control" over vehicle is an ordinance "relating to reckless operation" pursuant to Section 4507.34, Ohio Revised Code, and license suspension under latter (statute) is available as enhanced penalty for violation of former (ordinance). (Columbus v. Jackson, 82AP-244) (5) Docketed notation of illness of assigned trial court constitutes valid reason for continuance of trial beyond statutory speedy trial time limit. (Columbus v. Browning, 82AP-293) (6) Failure to refrigerate urine samples immediately upon receipt therof to result in prejudice to a defendant (because the resultant evaporation of alcoholic content from such sample could inure only to defendant's benefit on subsequent testing), as determined in Columbus v. Kilts, 81AP-222 and 223, was reiterated and affirmed in Columbus i>. Hamilton, 82AP-675 and 676; State v. Davis, 81AP-767 (sample mailed to Highway Patrol headquarters over a weekend); and Ohio v. Bosworth, 82AP-392 and 393 (sample mailed by Highway Patrol). (7) The appearance and trial of a case by a member of a law firm other than that with which client spoke does not
constitute ineffective assistance of counsel per se. (Columbus v. Breckenridge, 81AP-854 and 855) (8) Testimony of experienced Columbus Police officer as to excess speed of a defendant was found to be sufficient to support conviction even though the officer was unfamiliar with the speedometer of his (newly assigned cruiser and no speed measuring devices were involved. (Columbus v. Taylor, 81AP-920) (9) Ohio's post conviction relief statute does not apply to convictions of violations of municipal ordinances. (Columbus v. Fantozzi, 81AP-896, 897 and 898)

POLICE AGENCY LIAISON PROGRAM During 1982, the police liaison program completed its
third full year of operation. The main thrust of the program is to have an officer or team of officers appear at pre-trial conferences on behalf of all the complaining witnesses from a given police agency. In addition, the liaison officers are the primary point of contact for prosecutors who need more information on a particular case. The liaison officers also handle contacting regular officers for last minute continuances in emergency situations requiring the appearance of an officer that was not subpoened earlier. The liaison officers coordinate the flow of subpoenaes to their agencies and represent the police agencies at unscheduled changes of plea.
The Columbus Police Department, the Ohio State Highway Patrol, and the Franklin County Sheriffs Office are the three agencies most involved and most experienced in the police liaison program. Many other law enforcement agencies participate on a part-time basis.
The following statistics provided by the respective agencies reflect the second full year of operation:
Columbus Police Department Liaison Statistics—1982 Pre-Trials worked and set for trial 6,145 Pre-Trials worked and terminated 7,712 Record & jury trials worked 1,776

Unit saved court appearances for officers who were sick, injured, on vacation, or for some other reason were unable to appear.
The Ohio Highway Patrol continued in its assignment of one trooper to serve as its liaison. In addition to representing the Highway Patrol at pre-trials, the liaison officer prepares fact sheets for the Prosecutor's Office, files affidavits at the Clerk's Office for the Patrol, delivers subpoenaes to other troopers, and calibrates a breath testing machine for use in OMVI prosecutions.

WITNESS ASSISTANCE PROGRAM The City Attorney's office, Prosecutor's Division Witness
Assistance Program has become unique in many ways; some of which are (a) it is one of the only programs in the country dedicated to misdemeanors; (b) it has the potential of providing services and information to 150,000+ victims and witnesses annually; and, (c) it has developed one of the most effective and comprehensive agency referral networks in Franklin County.
SERVICES PROVIDED The Witness Assistance Program provides the following
services to witnesses: 1. Information regarding their case. 2. Escort service to court. 3. Subpoena information. 4. Emergency subpoena notification. 5. Assistance in understanding the court system. 6. Assistance in personal problems arising from being
called as a witness. 7. Information on State Compensation available to vic
tims. 8. Crisis counseling. 9. Assistance to witnesses who are being intimidated.
10. Direct assistance to the Court in difficult witness situations.
11. Coordinate information and services between the Intake Department, Night Prosecutor's Program and Prosecutor's Office trial staff.
12. Coordinating information and services between other agencies both in the government and private sector relating to victims of crime.
13. Speaking to and educating community groups and agencies.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW Witnesses are referred to the program from numerous
sources (i.e.: Intake Department, prosecutors, police officers, the court, and outside social service agencies). Many witnesses come into contact with the program through informational brochures, others call the prosecutor's office with questions and are referred to the program for assistance. A person who is a victim of and/or witness to a misdemeanor crime may be referred to the program at any point in the system from the time they file a charge through sentencing.
In 1982 emphasis was placed on establishing a referral network to aid victims of crime with such problems as emergency housing, family counseling, divorce information, etc. A great deal of time was spent contacting social service, government and human resource agencies throughout Franklin County and establishing a good working raport with them. It is imperative, especially in family violence situations, that victims are exposed to as little bureaucratic "red tape" as possible. Establishing key contact persons in other agencies and documenting what specific services they provide has enabled us to reduce the chances of victims getting the "run-a-around", and therefore eliminate some of their frustration. By reducing the victim frustration we enhance the probability of effective prosecution.
STAFF The Witness Assistance Program was staffed by a full-
time coordinator; one part-time assistant working a total of thirty hours per week; nine student placements from Ohio State, one from Capital University, and nine volunteers.

INTAKE SECTION The Intake Section is responsible for the initial screening
of all non-police complaints. Fifteen trained personnel are employed as Intake Counselors. The operation is supervised by a full-time coordinator, an attorney. The Intake Section is assisted in this acreening process by the Duty Prosecutor who is assigned on a rotating basis. In addition, Human Relations Counselors are available during all hours of intake to provide their expertise in the areas of social referrals and counseling. The Witness Assistance Program works closely with the Intake Section to provide support and assistance to individuals filing formal complaints.
INTAKE DUTIES The Intake Counselors interview the complainants in an
attempt to identify (1) the problem and (2) the most appropriate action to be taken. A wide range of possible solutions to a problem is available through the Intake Section.
1. A Night Prosecutor hearing; 2. A formal complaint; 3. A community referral; 4. Legal referrals; 5. Crisis Intervention counseling; 6. Referral to the Witness Assistance Program; 7. Immediate resolution; 8. Information.
INTAKE PROCEDURE When a complainant arrives at the City Prosecutor's
Office - Intake Section, he completes a statement of facts describing the problem. Once that statement of facts is completed, an intake counselor privately interviews the complainant and determines the most appropriate action to be taken. Often the complainant has had prior contact with the Prosecutor's Office or the court system. This history is also explained so that the best solution to the complainant's problem may be selected.
If a formal charge is necessary, the Intake Counselor assists the complainant in completing a worksheet which is reviewed by the Duty Prosecutor. The Duty Prosecutor evaluates the complaint and determines whether a charge should be filed. The Intake Counselor then contacts the complainant and advises him of the Duty Prosecutor's recommendations. If a formal charge is to be filed, the complainant is referred to the Witness Assistance Program for support.
An attorney is available during all hours of intake to review complaints. If an attorney is not in the office during evening or weekend hours, four (4) on-call telephone numbers are available where an attorney may be reached. A pager number is available so that the Duty Prosecutor could be reached when from his/her telephone.
The Intake Section has an indexing system to keep track of the massive number of criminal complaints. A separate card is maintained for each individual who registers a complaint. The system design allows quick retrieval of the history and outcome of a particular complaint. Prior contact with the office, nature of the problem, prior Night Prosecutor hearings, any charges filed, and results are available at a glance. This allows better control of the screening process. Repeat problems can now be identified and options for resolution more quickly narrowed.
The recording of all charges filed by the Prosecutor's Office provides information on defendant's name, case number, and disposition of formal charge. A complete record of every charge filed is available.
With the establishment and success of the Witness Assistance Program, the Intake Section is now able to refer victims directly to the Witness Assistance Program for assistance and guidance once a formal charge has been filed. This has significantly reduced the number of charges that are
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 13
dropped and provides for specialized attention to victims of domestic violence.
Refinement of procedures have allowed for quicker and more efficient access of the Intake Section to police records and offense reports.
Central Ohio Psychiatric Hospital, Franklin County Children's Services, The Columbus Public Library, Franklin County Animal Control are just a few agencies who developed close relationships with the Intake Division in 1982, resulting in more effective screening of cases.
TRAINING Continuous training of Intake Counselors occurs through
the use of staff meetings, bulletins, and training seminars. New statutes and procedures are related to the Intake Staff as they are effective. All Intake Counselors have gone through extensive crisis intervention training and legal training.
HUMAN RELATIONS COUNSELORS Frequently, human relations counselars will assist in the
Screening Process. They are available to deal with crisis situations and can provide short-term counseling and referrals to community agencies. One to four relations counselors are available during all hours of intake. Their duties include direct service to persons appearing at the Prosecutor's Division and coordination of the office's use of community resources.
INTAKE STATISTICS 75 to 125 complainants appear at the City Prosecutor's
Office - Intake Section every day. Approximately 60% of these complaints are initially scheduled for a mediation hearing. The remaining complaints are either referred elsewhere for a more appropriate examination of the problem or a formal charge is filed. In many cases, the problem js resolved completely at the initial interview.

NIGHT PROSECUTOR PROGRAM INTRODUCTION
The Columbus Night Prosecutor's Program (NPP) is one of the most successful diversionary programs in existence. Over the past eleven years, over 190,000 cases have been scheduled for mediation resulting in a savings to the City of Columbus that can be measured in millions of dollars. The Night Prosecutor Program is divided in three (3) divisions: Interpersonal, Bad Check, and Administrative
During 1982, the Night Prosecutor Program was visited by law enforcement and social service individuals from throughout the United States and Canada. NPP provided special assistance to the states of Iowa, Oklahoma, and West Virginia in development of their new programs. Past employees of NPP direct or work in similar programs in Boston, Houston, Washington D.C., Cleveland, Connecticut, and Colorado Springs.
The NPP is based on the mediation concept. Mediation is a process in which a neutral third party (the hearing officer) aids the disputants to fashion a mutually acceptable solution to the presenting problem.
The goals of this program are: to reduce the court case load by redirecting cases that are not appropriate for the adversarial process; to establish an efficient mechanism for resolving minor criminal disputes; to provide a public agency forum for a working population during hours which would not interfere with their employment; and to remove the stigma of a criminal arrest record arising from minor personal disputes.
STAFFING AND TRAINING The NPP is under the direction of a full-time coordinator.
The coordinator is responsible for the administration of the program and supervision of the hearings.
The program is staffed by trained personel who function as hearing officers and clerks. Approximately forty (40) individuals are employed on a part-time basis to maintain the seven-day-a-week operation. Before being hired, each employee attends a twelve hour Crisis Intervention Conflict
Management Training Program which has been tailored for use with the NPP. An additional eight hours of individual on-the-job training and four hours of specific legal instruction is provided to each employee. All employees must also attend six hours of "in-house" training which focuses on procedure of intake and mediation. A number of staff members have participated in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training.
To assist the hearing officer in crisis intervention and referrals, the NPP has a team of human relation counselors on staff. Social work and psychology students from the various universities within the area fulfill the critical need of alleviating the immediate crisis situation and dealing with the difficulties caused by human relationships. Part-time human relation counselors, who are professionals in social service and mental health fields, are also employed.
A complete network of contacts with referral agencies has been established permitting an immediate follow-up on all referrals. Often a criminal complaint is integrally connected with an individual's inability to deal with the difficulties of day-to-day living. The mental health counselor allows an immediate handling of these complex situations and provides the City Prosecutor's Office with an important link to the mental health and social service community and its resources.
The NPP has a field hearing officer available. This position is designed primarily to serve the needs of those individuals who have a need for the NPP, but are unable to use the services due to lack of transportation, age, or disability.
A daytime NPP representative was available to handle follow-up, questions, rescheduling, telephone calls and emergency hearings.
DIVISION I: Interpersonal Hearings
Of the types of hearings conducted by the NPP, interpersonal hearings are the primary focus. These hearings are directed to those criminal misdemeanor complaints brought by private citizens and usually involves spouses, family members, neighbors, co-workers, or the people who know each other. A majority of these cases are referred to the Prosecutor's Office by Columbus municipal police.
The hearings are conducted in a private room in the Prosecutor's Office. Present at the hearing are the hearing officer, the complainant, the respondent, human relations counselor, attorney (which is rarely the case) and witnesses (if necessary). The hearing officer conducts the hearing in such a way that each party has an opportunity to tell his/her side of the story without interruption. Hearings are scheduled for thirty minute intervals and are held 7 days a week.
Total Scheduled 9,652
Charges Filed after NPP 410
DIVISION II: Bad Check Program
The Bad Check Division is an integral component of the NPP.
In 1980, Franklin County Municipal Court passed a new rule which resulted in all bad check complaints being channeled through the NPP as a first step in the criminal process.
The Prosecutor's Office is not a collection agency, but rather the last step before the filing of formal charges. The purpose of the hearing is to settle the dispute and to educate the respondent as to the possible ramifications of writing a check which subsequently "bounces." Issues relating to the physical identification of the checkwriter and the criminal intent necessary for a formal charge are of importance in a bad check charge. The NPP hearing and, if necessary, the subsequent evaluation for a criminal charge help clarify these issues before prosecution begins.
Many changes were incorporated into the bad check division effective January 1, 1982. These changes include cross-referencing of bad check complaints between merchants, more accurate I.D. and address information on bad check writers, elimination of unnecessary NPP hearings, emphasis on multiple check writers, better evaluation procedures by use of bank records, and cross-referencing of cases, and regiscopes, and more accurate statistics.
These new procedures resulted in a recovery of over $180,000.00 to area merchants by the Bad Check Division in 1982.
Statistics prior to 1982 are not valid for comparison purposes in 1982 because of program changes that have occurred.

'Because of a new procedure in the Bad Check Division many hearings are now consolidated into one hearing in cases involving mult iple checkwri ters . The total number of checks handled in 1982 increased dramatically even though the number of hear ings scheduled decreased. In addit ion, because of better t racking of checkwri ters , many cases are not scheduled for hearings as was done prior to 1982. These unscheduled cases are submit ted directly for evaluation of criminal charges. , .
2Criminal charges were filed against 372 defendants . This significant decrease (2,249 charges in 1981) in the n u m b e r of defendants relates directly to new and improved me thods for evaluation of check complaints . Because of new procedures all bad checks from one checkwri ter are consolidated before evaluation for charges occurs. This results in better evidence for prosecution, more effective evaluation, consolidations of all check charges from different merchan ts into one case. This consolidation results in large financial savings to the court system due to the e l imina t ion of mult iple cases against one defendant — all being p rosecu ted separately.

FRANKLIN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT ANNUAL REPORT—1982
HISTORY OF THE COURT The General Assembly of the State of Ohio created and
established Columbus Municipal Court in 1916. Prior to this time our Court operated under the Justice of Peace System. On July 5, 1955, the Columbus Municipal Court was given Countywide Jurisdiction. In 1968 the State Legislature changed the name of the court to FRANKLIN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT. In 1979 the Court and Clerk of Courts Office moved into their new quarters, the Franklin County Municipal Court Building, at Fulton and High Streets, Columbus, Ohio.
The Franklin County Municipal Court operates under State Statute or State Law rather than under the City Charter. Under the present law the Municipal Court operates with thirteen (13) elected Judges and one (1) elected Clerk of Courts, each of whose term is for a period of six years.
There are a total of 28 Court Rooms plus a Duty Room in the new facility which are being used constantly. The new Court Building is equipped with two (2) Traffic Arraignment Courtrooms, four (4) Criminal Arraignment Courtrooms, two (2) Record Hearing Courtrooms, one (1) Duty Room and seventeen (17) Jury Courtrooms. The Clerk of Courts has provided a Drive-In Window where a parking ticket or a moving violations can be paid. Franklin County Municipal Court consists of five divisions; Civil, Traffic, Criminal, Trusteeship-Landlord Tenant and Small Claims. Within these five divisions we perform a wide variety of duties for the Court and the Public. The Clerk is the keeper of all court records as well as a bookkeeper, cashier and banker of court money.
FRANKLIN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT DIVISIONS CIVIL DIVISION
This division handles all Civil cases involving money actions which include cases representing account actions for money and property, actions at law based on tort of damage, on contract, and actions for restitution of property. In 1974 that State Legislature increased the court's limitation on action involving money to $10,000 in order to relieve the overload in Common Pleas Court. All garnishments of wages and executions against personal property for collection of judgements are processed by this division.
CRIMINAL DIVISION The Municipal Court has jurisdiction of the violation of
any city ordinance and of any misdemeanor committed within the limits of Franklin County. The Court also holds preliminary hearings on all felony arrests in the county. All persons arrested in Franklin County by the Columbus Police, Highway Patrol, Franklin County Sheriffs, and other law enforcement agencies are processed through this divi-
TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS BUREAU This division keeps a record of all traffic citations issued
by the Columbus Police, Highway Patrol, Franklin County Sheriffs and other law enforcement agencies wherein no court appearance is required by law. Other functions are collecting all monies for traffic citations, issuing delinquent notices to violators, preparing copies of affidavits when court hearings are preferred.
TRUSTEESHIP — LANDLORD TENNANT DIVISION This division handles trusteeships of debtors who are
trying to pay off their creditors while at the same time relieve themselves of frequent garnishments. A percentage of their pay, each pay period, as paid into the Clerk's Office and is periodically prorated to their creditors.
A tenant having complaints in regard to housing conditions may make application to the Clerk's Office to put their rent in escrow until release is given by the tennant or ordered released by the Court.
SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION The purpose of this division is to provide a forum where
parties may informally litigate disputed claims pursuant to an expeditious and inexpensive procedure. Civil Actions for money only up to $1,000.00 are filed in this division. Before a claim can be filed, a claimant must be interviewed and a possible conciliation hearing scheduled before going to court.

FROM THE HEALTH COMMISSIONER: PUBLIC HEALTH: preventing disease and promoting positive health through organized community efforts. This straight forward definition is the basis for all the program information that follows in the Department's 1982 Annual Report. There is one key word in the definition that I believe is often overlooked—community. Local public health efforts are done with the community and not for or by the community. Programs and initiatives of your Columbus Health Department are illustrative of this definition. Contracts with neighborhood based organizations for weed and litter programs and primary health care; using neighborhood facilities for health services and Department field offices thus establishing an entry and contact point for residents and helping our staff develop a sense of belonging and accountability to that neighborhood; involving local residents as "block captains", on advisory boards, or for reporting when nuisances have been resolved are examples of working with our communities. Further, public health's community extends equally to businesses, health providers, and other professional sectors of society. Contracting for unique medical skills and interests; developing formal working relationships with hospitals, professional academies and associations; recruiting professional volunteers for direct care and for serving in advisory capacities for review and evaluation of our programs are appropriate and necessary relationships for a health department.
A review of past and recent history will show that, from ^In1 n f ? n t we! f a re and milk stations of the early 1900's to 1982 when volunteer from all walks of life contributed in excess of $250,000 worth of service to the Health Department, the community/Health Department relationship works. Public health is community.
Every community, however, needs a leader and the Health Department should be expected to provide leadership to protect and promote the public's health. The Board of J£nc*K s t a t u
4t o r y authority to promulgate health regula
tions, the existence of a highly skilled and motivated health staff, and the recogmtion that many of the Department's
programs, most notably in home care, sexually transmitted diseases, alcoholism and the environment are considered unequaled, provide a unique base for the Health Department's leadership role. There is a missing ingredient, however, an adequate financial base.
For the second straight year, the Department received deep cuts in its support from the City. The General Fund amount needed to provide services at the Department's 1980 level has been reduced by 22% or $1.3 million dollars over the past two years. As a result, the Department has lost 29 full-time positions (12 through lay-off in 1982) or a 10% reduction in staff supported by City tax dollars. The nursing and environmental health programs have lost field staff; the health education program has been eliminated, and vacancies in key administrative and support positions throughout the Department have not been filled. These are but a few of the examples. Understandably, during this period of economic turmoil in our society, the public's demand for Health Department services has increased.
Recognizing that the Department does not rank high on the priority list because it receives only 3.5% of the City's operating fund, an independent citizens' task force concluded that the Health Department was " . . . hard pressed to deliver services to the public due to austere budget(s)." The same task force concluded, however, that "The department is well run and is managing admirably under a severe strain because of a lack of adequate funding for staff, facilities, equipment and vehicles."
The Department's leadership and program potential is not being realized because of inadequate resources. While staff has extended themselves to perform extra services and work beyond reasonable work loads at times, this accelerated pace cannot be sustained indefinitely without professional burnout, decreasing morale and higher staff turnover. The rubber band is stretched very thin.
In contrast to the budget situation there were many positive changes and challenges that occurred throughout the year. Peter Parthum, M.D., M.P.H. left a public health career in Michigan and joined our staff as Medical Director. It is the first time since 1969 that the Department has had a full-time Medical Director and Dr. Parthum's expertise in areas like communicable disease control and his ability to effectively communicate with other health professionals outside the Department are gratefully welcomed.
The Department continued to provide public health services by contract to the City of Worthington.
The Department was made the lead agency by the Mayoi to coordinate the City's litter control efforts and receivec funding from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources The process was initiated to have Columbus designated as £ "Clean Community" under the Keep America Beautifu program. We expect to receive the designation in 1983.
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 19
Contracts for weed cutting and solid waste clean-up were awarded to Alvis House and Gladden Community House in an effort to return dollars to communities and increase neighborhood pride by involving local residents. The efforts were so successful that a waiting list for other neighborhood organizations has evolved. Additionally, the process of decentralizing environmental health staff to neighborhood facilities was begun.
The Nursing and Rehabilitation program developed a marketing strategy to inform the total community of the availability of home care services.
The Development Director and the Health Commissioner negotiated an agreement that ended duplication of effort between the two departments. Columbus residents may now call the Health Department on all exterior environmental complaints and the Development Department for structural and interior environmental problems relating to housing.
Of increasing concern to the Department was the dramatic increase in cases of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. The first dog quarantine, since the rabies outbreak in 1977, was imposed on a section of northeast Columbus in an effort to control the spread of the disease.
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DIVISION The Division is responsible for all matters relating to fis
cal, accounting, personnel, purchasing as well as vital statistics and maintenance operations. In addition to the monitoring and analytical functions performed, the Division serves as liaison for the Health Department with other city, state and federal agencies.

VITAL STATISTICS In 1982, in Columbus and Franklin County, 16,948 births
f were recorded, 132 less than in 1981. Of these births, there .'.' were 229 sets of twins, 4 sets of triplets, 110 home births, and ;G 55 births to mothers under age 15. Registered stillbirths
,oJ totalled 137, or 22 less than 1981. Recorded deaths totalled 7,879, or 120 less than in 1981. A total of 40,611 certified copies of birth certificates were
J.i issued, along with 43,358 certified copies of death certifi-I cates; the increase in both categories over 1S81 equalled 830.
The sum of $196,646 was received from registration fees us and charges for certified copies of birth and death certifi-i;3 cates, and deposited in the city's General Revenue Fund.
VD HOTLINE The VD Hotline provides confidential information on sex-
uu ually transmitted diseases and referrals to area clinics. Our calls strongly support the fact that veneral disease is an epidemic in the Columbus area and a major concern to the
sq people of our community. In the past year we have received 'c 5700 calls requesting information, and there has been a 100% ni increase in calls on genital herpes since 1980.
In 1982 the Hotline expanded volunteer recruitment ,1; efforts and has been better able to serve the community
through expanded evening hours. Volunteers are vital to I our program and we currently have 24 active volunteers in
volved in answering Hotline phones, speaking engagements in the community and public relations.
WOMEN. INFANTS. AND CHILDREN PROGRAM (WIC) WIC is a special supplemental food program for Women,
Infants, and Children. The program provided food supplements and nutrition education to low income pregnant, post-partum, and breastfeeding women; infants, and children up to the age of five (5). The program attempts to reach those individuals who because of inadequate nutritional status are "at-risk" of complications of pregnancy or poor growth and development.
The Columbus Health Department WIC Program had 11 clinic locations and four sub-contract locations where assessments were made to determine medical and financial eligibility. Infants and children were evaluated every six months. Women were certified to receive service during pregnancy.
Education and clinical experiences were provided for students in health professions at Ohio State University.
Supplemental foods rich in iron, calcium, vitamins A and C, plus nutrition education were provided for over 13,000 participants. There were a total of 27,000 visits for WIC services, an 51% increase over 1981.
MEDICAL SERVICES DIVISION The Division was involved in several notable public
health "events" in 1982. For several weeks in the summer, part of the city water supply had nitrate levels exceeding EPA guidelines. This division assisted the Division of Water in assessing the risk to the community, allaying excessive fear, and recommending prudent measures to reduce risk from this situation.
In early fall, the tragic drug contamination deaths in Chicago heightened concerns here. The division provided guidelines to the public and facilitated the testing of a number of drug samples. None were found to be contaminated.
The other significant development this year has been in the establishment of the offices of the Medical Director and Epidemiology. The Medical Director's office is the central clearinghouse for information relative to the provision of medical services in the Department. A newly formed Medical Care Committee, consisting of the medical directors and head nurses of the six neighborhood health centers, will work to standardize and refine the health services offered.
The Epidemiology Office receives all disease reports in this city, and is responsible for disease surveillance and outbreak control. A good working relationship has been engendered with hospital infection control practitioners, area physicians, and school health nurses. This has allowed for a free flow of information among these vital links in the chain of disease control and reporting.

Prevention Coordination Designated by the Regional Council on Alcoholism and
funded by the Ohio Department of Health, this component coordinates alcoholism and alcohol abuse prevention activities in Franklin County. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and reduction of risks to children of alcoholics have been designated priorities.
Public Inebriate Program Fully funded by the city, the program provides alterna
tives to arrest for chronic public inebriates. High public intoxication areas of the city are patrolled on foot and by car from 8:00 a.m. to midnight, Monday through Friday. THe Alcoholism Control Officers (ACO's), emergency intervention specialists, seek to interrupt these chronic drinking patterns and furnish transportation to community facilities or other places of safety.
Closing of the "Open Shelter" in August significantly increased the responsibility of and demands upon the Alcoholism Control Officers. During 1982, their emergency transportation runs were to or from as follows:
Regional Alcoholism Detox Center 286 Residences 350 Hospitals 204 Social Services Agencies I l l Mental Health Centers 52 Alcoholism Agencies 28 Other, miscellaneous 274 Holding Service (no other service available) 147 The public inebriates served were 7.6% female, 92.4%
male; of which 68.1% were white, 31.3% black, .2% Spanish and .4% indian.
Venereal Disease Control Clinic visits were essentially unchanged from 1981, with
28,499 patients seen (increase of 0.4%). The gonorrhea rate for 1982 decreased by 18.5%, the largest annual decrease in gonorrhea morbidity since the epidemic began in the mid-60s. The decrease was uniformly distributed across all racial, sexual and sexual preference population sub-groups. In addition, an identical decrease was seen in all of the screening sites throughout the city served by our program This decrease was one of the highest in the nation. It appears that our comprehensive approach to gonorrhea epidemiology is finally paying dividends.
During this same time interval there were increases in most of the other sexually transmitted diseases- non-, ? » c l f i ^ u r e t ! ? r ^ ' h e r P e s . scabies and early syphilis up 18%, 14%, 67% and 20% respectively. Vaginal trichomoniasis was down by 9% similar to a national trend in this infection
Selective culturmg of high risk patients for Chlamydia
trachomatis infection suggests that its prevalence exceeds that of gonorrhea. A four-week screening of all patients for this infection will be done in 1983 to establish its true prevalence in our patient population. Major disease control incentives are needed in this area.
Gonorrhea interviewing and contact referral/tracing activities performed on 4,070 infected patients resulted in the examination of 3,828 exposed individuals and 1,374 previously unidentified infections brought to treatment. Similar activities related to 162 syphilis cases resulted in the examination of 624 individuals and 50 previously unidentified cases brought to treatment.
Gonorrhea screening of women in the public and private medical sector resulted in 95,694 women tested and 5,508 previously unidentified infections brought to treatment.
Intense epidemiological activities were conducted on 48 cases of PPNG (penicillin resistant gonorrhea) during the summer. The epidemic was successfully controlled with only sporadic cases identified during the last quarter of the year. , .
The reported VD clinic morbidity rates this year were calculated using a different denominator, thus the 1981 rate given would be different than that published for last year's report.
LABORATORY In 1982, the laboratory program expanded its involvement
in research and training. We maintained our support to communicable disease diagnosis in the areas of sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis and enteric diseases; and in sanitary microbiology for food, milk, and water.
Laboratory activities in 1982 included: •participating in a pilot study to better characterize
herpes virus infections • continuing participation in a Trichomonas vaginalis
drug susceptibility study • evaluating Gonozmye'" (ELISA test) for accuracy in de
tecting gonococcal infections • conducting training sessions for technologists from
Children's Hospital, Doctors North Hospital, and Mt. Carmel Medical Center in isolation of Chlamydia trachomatis
• participating in instituting a new food-poisoning investigation progam
THE NEIGHBORHOOD HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM Tbe Neighborhood Health Center Program consists of six
community-based health centers which provide primary medical and health care services to six designated target neighborhoods within the City of Columbus. The Columbus Health Department contracts with these six agencies to provide these services. During 1982, the N.H.C. Program provided 43,621 medical encounters. The patient Age, Race and Sex percentages were as follows:
Age Race Sex 0 - 14 - 23.5% Black - 34.9% Male - 31.6%
15 - 29 - 27.5% White - 59.8% Female - 68.4% 30 - 44 - 14.6% Other - 5.3% 45 - 59 - 14.6%
60 - Over - 19.8% In addition to the medical encounters, the program pro
vided many other preventative health care services to neighborhood residents. These included nutrition and alcoholism counseling, nursing services, family planning, dentistry, social work and patient t ransportat ion. These services accounted for an additional 67,000 visits to the health centers.
Other activities included: • Revising the Fee Payment Schedule • Establishing a Medical Care Committee • Completing a Pharmacy Prescribing Guide • Developing a slide presentation • Working with the academy of Medicine to develop a
program to provide health care to unemployed individuals
TUBERCULOSIS CONTROL The Ben Franklin Tuberculosis Clinic is responsible for
the detection surveillance and containment of tuberculosis cases and their contacts in Columbus and Franklin County. Toward that goal, the statistical reports of our performance records are as follows:
• 2,476 new diagnostic examinations • 854 recheck examinations • 2,163 periodic treatment and consultation visits.

Milk, Food and Rabies Program The milk program continued to show an increase in the
number of farms to be inspected in 1982. Great emphasis was placed on increasing the working potential of the milk inspection force. Steps were undertaken to increase the number of farms to be inspected by other health departments on a reciprocal basis. This will be followed by a gradual expansion of this method all over the state with the support of the Ohio Department of Health. The final goal will be the elimination of the presence of more than one milk inspection agency in a given county. A state cost survey of our program was conducted in 1982.

The nurses also gave in-services to various groups including emergency medical technicians, nursing and psychology students, Lamaze mothers' groups and the Central Ohio Lung Association.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES ANNUAL REPORT — 1982
Overview The primary purpose of the Department of Community
Services is: 1) to improve the economic status of individuals who are economically disadvantaged, unemployed, or underemployed; 2) to improve consumer education and protection; 3) to reduce the incidence of consumer fraud; 4) and to employ appropriate strategies which will help meet the social, psychological and emotional needs of Columbus area residents. The department performs these functions by compiling, assembling, utilizing and providing data relative to human and social services; coordinating and operating the City's social and human services programs and by providing the comprehensive planning and management for and the delivery of such services and programs.
During 1982, the department was notified of the passage of new employment and training legislation by the United States Congress to replace the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA). This legislation, the "Job Training Partnership Act" (JTPA), provides a one-year transition period before becoming fully effective October 1, 1983. Its primary objective is to teach people skills, thereby increasing their opportunity for gainful employment. Due to the complexity of the new law, our staff reviewed its provisions, attended a number of workshops regarding the transitional phase and studied its implications for the City of Columbus and Franklin County. Work began internally to consummate a smooth transition to a new, but continued business/government partnership in the community.
The new legislative provides that funding be made available to state governors who will appropriate the funds to local service delivery areas with a population of at least 200,000 persons. The Columbus/Franklin County area will automatically receive funds under this new Act. Additionally, the Mayor and the County Commissioners stated their intent to continue the County/City Partnership and will select a Private Industry Council (PIC), to oversee the planning and operation of the new program.
The CETA/JTPA Program in Columbus and Franklin County served 5,606 persons in 1982. Of those persons 3,536 were enrolled in year-round programs and 2,070 were enrolled in the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) The Consortium received $8,875,013 during the year to provide employment and training services. The average cost of service per person served was $1,583.
The department continued to serve Columbus area consumers by enforcing all weights and measures laws and providing consumer education and protection to those requesting such services.
The Youth Service Bureau of the department experienced a greater demand for its special support services such as the Friends Program, and counselling and tutorial services
Other human service needs continued to be met through the use of Federal Revenue Sharing funds. During 1982 with Columbus City Council's approval, the department ex
pended $2,214,212 and contracted with thirty (30) local social service agencies to provide human services to 149,728 needy persons in the community.
As we approach 1983, we are determined to continue to meet the challenge of serving human needs with steadily decreasing funds. We continue to realize that our only real mission is to serve as completely and efficiently as possible the citizens of the City of Columbus, who are in need of, and eligible for such services.
Consumer Services The Office of Consumer Services protects consumers
from fraudulent practices. This is accomplished by testing the accuracy and correctness of weighing and measuring devices used in retail sales; verifying net weight as stated on labels; investigating consumer complaints; and taking corrective action when a violation has occurred.
During 1982, our inspectors made 2,592 visits to retail establishments and inspected more than 9,400 devices. Random inspections of more than 14,400 packages of meat, milk, produce, bread, frozen fish and cheese revealed a small percentage were short-weight.
In respect to violations, 67 citations were issued by inspectors for violations of the weights and measures laws; specifically those laws regarding the use of accurate measuring and weighing equipment; lawful advertising and correct labeling. A significant number of the 67 citations were issued against various milk suppliers for short-weight milk in '/2 gallon cartons. As a result, over 1,700 half-gallon cartons of milk were embargoed. The remainder of the citations issued were concerned with improper labeling of products; use of a non-sealed device; misleading ads at gas pumps, and failure to identify (label) products at the gasoline pumps. In many other cases of infractions, verbal warnings were given and the problems were rectified in compliance with City Code.
Throughout the year, inspectors participated in various panels and training demonstrations relative to the enforcement of weights and measures laws. Some of these were the Annual Conference of the Ohio Weights & Measures Association; consumer education classes for senior citizens; National Consumer Conference at Edinboro College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania; and a special educational program during National Consumer's Week. In addition, the Consumer Specialist testified at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on the "Decontrol of Natural Gas".
Also the Consumer Specialist conducted over 450 field investigations, held more than 220 office conferences, made eight court appearances and received 292 signed complaints. More than 400 complaints were successfully resolved and 353 complaints were referred to agencies with other jurisdictions. As a result of successful arbitration, case refunds totalling approximately $38,000 were awarded to I

The past year saw significant p rog rammat i c changes due primarily to funding cu tbacks and the p lanned t ransi t ion from CETA to t h e J o b Tra in ing P a r t n e r s h i p Act. These changes necessi ta ted a smal ler staff (less than 100 persons) that had to be carefully utilized in order to mainta in high quality services. Overall, i m p r o v e m e n t s were noted, especially in the assesment , selection and referral processes .

During the year, a total of 783 pre-physical assessments were completed by the Nurs ing Unit.
PLACEMENT SERVICES The demand for job p lacement services increased in 1982
as a result of the declining economy and rising unemployment. A greater number of people experienced prolonged periods of unemployment , the n u m b e r of persons eligible to be served also increased.
"Ready. Willing, and Able" Media Campaign Sponsored by the Private Indus t ry Council , this campaign
was par t of a job development effort contracted th rough t h e department . I ts purpose was to inform private sector employers of the availability of t rained manpower .
On-the-job Training Program The purpose of this program is to secure product ive work
in the private sector for qualified persons , and to m a k e certain that all par t ic ipants are provided with adequa te knowledge and skills essential to successful job performance. The employer may b e re imbursed for u p to 50 percent of the cost of training.

Special Youth Support Programs Despite a reduct ion in staff of one caseworker , overall ser
vices provided by the Youth Service Bureau exceeded that of the preceding year. It is a s sumed that local organizat ions and social service agency budge t reduct ions may have contr ibuted to the increase in referrals.
Individuals caseloads increased from 162 to 258 and total n " n l b e r , ° ! contacts relat ing to caseloads increased from 2,090 to 3,601.

CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 27
In 1982, the office submitted plans for the expenditure of approximately $8 million for employment and training and over $2 million for social service programs. In order to achieve this, staff worked with local employment and social service agencies.
Employment and training programs, funded by CETA until October of 1982, were continued under terms of the Job Training Partnership Act. The programs required a large annual plan and four modifications for Fiscal Year 1982, and a preliminary and then final plan for Fiscal Year 1983. In that work, services were planned for over 5600 participants with activities in classroom training, on-the-job training, work experience and support service in Fiscal Year 1982. Included were services to nearly 2100 youths in summer employment from July through August of 1982. For 1983, plans have been developed for similar levels of service and for transition to terms of the new Job Training Partnership Act, to be completed by September 30, 1983.
Contracts for employment and training service were recommended based on a large, competitive bid process managed by the Office. As part of that, the office organized labor market information and specified areas of training and job development most desired by the Columbus and Franklin County Consortium. In preparation for 1983, the office held hearings in conjunction with the Private Industry Council and Manpower Advisory Council to obtain advice from community members and interested persons. Also for 1983, plans were implemented which diminished work experience and increased funding for on-the-job training and skill training in classrooms. Because fewer Federal dollars were available at the beginning of the 1983 Fiscal Year the office worked with others to reduce the rate of allowance payments to trainees, in order to fund the highest number of participants possible. The office aided in shifting from a multi-title CETA program in 1982 to an administratively-simpler composite program for 1983, reducing administrative requirements for the program.
Reauthorization of CETA and passage of the Job Training Partnership Act presented staff with the need to secure legislative proposals, then later analyze implications of a new law for the Consortium. In that work, papers were prepared and preliminary meetings held to make a smooth transition to a new, but continued, business/government partnership in the community.
The Private Industry Council and its liaison were equal partners in work with the Office. For FY 1983, all plans were discussed with that council which provided large scale marketing efforts for the program during 1982 and plans were laid for "customized" training, involving a close link between employers, employment and training staff of the Department, and training contractors.
In the Summer Youth Employment Program, special work by Battelle Memorial Institute resulted in an exploratory program for youth interested in training and careers in science and technology. The office also worked with the Employment and Education Commission and the National Alliance of Business in finding summer jobs in the private sector. Programs were offered by the Columbus Public Schools to provide exploration of vocational training offerings for in-school youth.
Using General Revenue-sharing funds allocated to the department by the administration and City Council, the department solicited proposals for calendar year 1982 social service programs in late 1981. During 1982, the Office assisted the Office of Contracting in implementing contracts for over $2 million in social services for 1982. Late in the summer of 1982, the office convened the Revenue-sharing Task Force, solicited proposals, and recommended funding of over $2.1 million. In 1982, the office felt that emphasis should be given to services which meet the emergency needs of people during the winter months, as well as those services which assist unempolyed or underemployed persons. Those positions have been supported by both the administration and City Council.
A number of efforts to coordinate the work of the Department with others were undertaken by the Office. Work with the Department of Development focused on enterprise zone policy and employment initiatives. Work with the Metropolitan Human Services Commission dealt with contingency planning for alternate uses of local public and private funding as Federal funds were reduced for service in our community. Work with the Central Ohio Work and Learning Council linked city/county employment and training programs with other programs in the county. The office provided staff for the Operation Feed emergency food drive in 1982. The Office also worked with a variety of neighborhood groups and social service agency representatives in planning summer youth activity in 1982.
Office of Contracting This office was reorganized in 1982 for purposes of nego
tiation and construction of contracts and preparation of legislation authorizing such contracts. These responsibilities included working closely with other offices in the department in order to establish a departmental postition for negotiations on all proposals that were recommended for contracting.
The office was responsible for a wide range of activities: 1) presenting the department's position to subcontractors and negotiating terms that were acceptable to both parties; 2) developing contract packages and obtaining legal authorization for contracts; 3) insuring the implementation of all contract services, and lease agreements; 4) making necessary changes in all contracts; 5) making quarterly on-site visits to monitor contracts; 6) assisting the Office of Planning in conducting workshops for service providers; and 7) providing technical assistance.
During 1982 the office entered into and monitored 112 Revenue Sharing and CETA contracts with various agencies and organizations. At the direction of the U.S. Department of Labor, all CETA Title II-B and IV contracts were transferred to CETA Title VII.
The Office of Contracting submitted 122 pieces of legislation to City Council and all were approved. The office also finalized 112 contracts and conducted 132 negotiations for CETA as well as Revenue Sharing funded contracts. Workshops were conducted offering technical assistance to representatives of agencies regarding consistent problems; those areas specifically dealing with contractural provisions and fiscal accountability.
The Contracting unit has a goal of quarterly on-site monitoring of the contractor's day-to-day activities to ascertain compliance of agencies and organizations with contract requirements. During the past year the unit made 70 visits.
Thirty-four budget modifications were undertaken to account for expenditure of funds which would differ from original contracts.
Twenty-two agencies received CETA funds while thirty-four agencies received Revenue Sharing funds. Six newly contracted agencies were also awarded Revenue Sharing dollars.
Revenue Sharing funds served a variety of social needs in 1982 as can be seen in Table 8 which lists agencies contracted and the dollar amount awarded. Revenue Sharing funded contracts are listed by category in Table 7.

Office of Monitoring and Compliance The Office of Monitoring and Compl iance is composed of
two units; The Independen t Monitor ing Uni t (IMU) and t h e Management Control Uni t (MCU). Each uni t serves as a managerial and performance review sys tem for its deisg-nated area of responsibil i ty. The moni tor ing function encompasses services del ivered by the d e p a r t m e n t and its subcontractors, the adminis t ra t ion of those services, and the management of the funds which suppor t those services.
The CETA section of the IMU was created by the 1978 reauthorization of CETA and is charged with identifying potential areas of fraud and/or abuse in CETA funded activities. Utilizing a prevent ive approach, the IMU moni tors all CETA—funded contracts , analyzes depar tmenta l monthly and quar ter ly repor t s , p lans and policies for compl iance with federal laws, CETA regulat ions, and appl icable Depar t ment of Labor grant managemen t policies. Any identified occurrence of noncompl iance is d o c u m e n t e d and repor ted to the director, who then initiates the necessary corrective action procedures .
™£Zing 1 9 8 2 ' t h e C E T A section of the IMU moni tored 30 CETA contracts , and conduc ted 7 per iodic reviews of t h e client eligibility de terminat ion system. A verification procedure to review eligibility de te rmina t ion was revised and a full-time staff person was ass igned to implemen t the new procedure.
The Revenue Shar ing sect ion of the IMU utilizes the s a m e basic review format and t e c h n i q u e s as the CETA section of the IMU; however , it also par t ic ipa tes in the p lanning and evaluation of R e v e n u e Sha r ing funded p r o g r a m s th rough the depar tmen t ' s R e v e n u e Shar ing Task Force . Dur ing 1982, this uni t moni tored 27 con t rac t s funded by R e v e n u e Sharing dollars.
T h e M a n a g e m e n t C o n t r o l U n i t (MCU), e s t a b l i s h e d in September , 1981, is an in ternal m a n a g e m e n t tool which acts a s t h e m e c h a n i s m for c o o r d i n a t i n g d e p a r t m e n t a l self-evaluation and on-going correct ive act ion.

T h e MCU also processes the various c o m p o n e n t s of t h e depa r tmen ta l corrective action p rocedure to a s su re t h e t imel iness a n d adequacy of at tent ion to identified concerns . In 1982 the MCU deve loped a u d i t fol low-up p r o c e d u r e s , c o n v e n e d m o n t h l y meetings to analyze pe r fo rmance and d e t e r m i n e correct ive action, facilitated the del ivery of t echnica l ass is tance to over twenty communi ty agencies , and ini t iated and moni to red 39 corrective act ions.
The Office of Moni tor ing and Compl i ance also developed and imp lemen ted an in te rna l rev iew s t ra tegy to p repa re both Depa r tmen t staff and subcon t r ac to r s for the Depar t m e n t of L a b o r a n n u a l a s s e s s m e n t .

ENERGY COMMUNITY E N E R G Y M A N A G E M E N T P R O G R A M S Energy Management Planning
Under an $84,000 grant from t h e Energy Task Force of the Urban Consor t ium, the D e p a r t m e n t carr ied out a s tudy of successful energy m a n a g e m e n t pract ices appl icable to Columbus . At year 's end, a repor t on this s tudy was prepared for publ i sh ing , ent i t led " E l e m e n t s of Successful Energy Management : A Compara t ive S tudy of Six Local Governments . "
The D e p a r t m e n t col labora ted wi th the Commun i ty Involvement Task Force of the Energy Counci l to publicize the Co lumbus Energy P l an and to p re sen t major energy issues to the communi ty . Staff worked wi th the Government Te lecommunica t ion Center on the produc t ion of a 45 minute TV special, "Ene rgy and Ne ighborhoods : What are the Trade-Offs?" In connec t ion wi th this program, survey quest ions were pub l i shed in 12 local c o m m u n i t y newspapers with a combined circulat ion of more t h a n 180,000.
In an effort to imp lemen t major land-use strategies contained in the Co lumbus Energy Plan , staff carried out an
intensive survey of Co lumbus developers , bankers , and realtors regarding the p rospec t s for large scale mixed-use development in Co lumbus . A repor t was presen ted to the Depar tment of Deve lopment in May.
Depa r tmen t staff suppor t ed t h e work of t h e Metropol i tan Te lecommunica t ion Research Commi t t ee (MTRC) in preparing a t e lecommunica t ion needs a s sessment survey for ci ty d e p a r t m e n t s and d iv is ions , a s wel l as for F r a n k l i n County agencies and other municipal i t ies within the county-
A research proposal was submi t t ed to t h e Energy Task Force of the Urban Consor t ium, and was accepted for 1983 funding. This proposal requi res an invest igat ion of energy managemen t aspects of t e l ecommunica t ion technologies as applied to city government services and operat ions .
District Heating Assessment The District Heat ing and Cooling Feasibil i ty S tudy initi
ated in 1981 with funding from U.S. H U D was comple ted in September , 1982. The final repor t was well received by H U D sponsors and by other par t ic ipat ing cities and indus t ry representat ives. T h e Project Manager was a featured speaker a t the project wrap-up conference in St. Paul in late October . Al though s tudy resul ts indicated that capital in tensive DHC sys tems would not p rove to be economical ly compet i t ive in C o l u m b u s for t h e n e x t decade , a great deal of realiable objective da ta was gathered and analyzed. The Co lumbus effort was lauded for its f rankness and comprehens iveness . The Co lumbus repor t and presenta t ion led to an agreement with the Royal Danish Gove rnmen t by which Co lumbus was des ignated as a test city for the feasibility of lower-cost hot water DHC technology as utilized in wes tern Europe . The agreement , s igned on D e c e m b e r 3 by Mayor Moody and Danish Energy Minis ter K n u d Enggaa rd , calls for an 18 month , $500,000 effort by Dan i sh engineers , universi t ies , l a b o r a t o r i e s a n d c o n s u l t a n t s , i n c o n j u n c t i o n w i t h Brookhaven National Laboratory , U.S. lawyers, and staff of the Depa r tmen t of Energy and Te lecommunica t ion . Planning for the project will begin in early 1983, wi th d e p a r t m e n t staff se rv ing as C o l u m b u s l iaison to t h e Dan i sh project team.
Utility Conservation Financing A year-long effort to s tudy financing of energy conserva

The g roup resolved to mee t dur ing 1983 to explore ways in which local compan ies might similarly benefit from

investing in conservation instead of plant capacity. The c ty hopes that any resulting plans will not only help financially strapped utilities, but will also identify sources of capital for conservation efforts in all energy consuming sectors of the Columbus economy.
CITY GOVERNMENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS Fleets
In 1982, the department was instrumental in forming the Fleet Issues Group, composed of representatives from all city departments having major investments in and responsibility for vehicle fleet purchasing, use, and maintenance. The Fleet Issues Group developed an agenda calling for completion of a comprehensive set of fleet management and purchasing policies by summer of 1983. Several recommended policies were developed and approved by the Cabinet members during 1982, and completion of all remaining work is expected to occur on schedule.
Buildings As presented in detail in the 1981 Annual Report, the de
partment has participated in the Federal Energy Conservation Program of audits of schools, hospitals, local government and public care buildings. The result of this program was engineering energy audits of 160 city buildings. These audits identified energy saving retrofits, called energy conservation measures (ECMs), which in 1980 dollars and prices would cost the City approximately $800,000 and save approximately $248,000, for a simple payback of 3.3 years. Of the $800,000 worth of ECMs, $560,000 funding for the ECMs for buildings in the divisions of Police, Fire, Engineering and Construction, Electricity, Traffic Engineering, and the Recreation and Parks Department, was approved in the voted bond package of November, 1981. This funding had been anticipated as being available in the spring of 1982; the department was to then coordinate the implementation of the funded ECMs. However, the funding was not available in 1982, so the ECMs' could not be completed. Some funds are expected to be available for ECM implementation in 1983, at which time the department staff will coordinate the implementation of the ECMs.
Energy Monitoring In order to monitor and forecast energy consumption and
conservation in city buildings, the department purchased an advanced Olivetti 16-bit microcomputer system with funds provided by the Urban Consortium grant. In addition to tracking energy conservation efforts in city facilities, the computer system will be utilized to increase staff productivity in the areas of word processing and accounting.
EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM Low Cost Weafherization: Operation WeatherBeater In the latter part of 1981, the Weatherization Task Force appointed by the Mayor and City Council asked the Department of Energy and Telecommunication staff to develop and seek funding for a proposal to design and implement a community-based, self-help, low cost/no cost weatherization program as one means of assisting low income households reduce home energy use and costs.
The proposal submitted by the Department in February, 1982, called for workshops for residents of 2,700 low income households , dur ing which res idents would obta in: (1) information re no cost energy-saving lifestyle measures (2) instruction and hands on experience in the use of a variety of low cost weatherization materials such as plastic sheeting, rope and tube caulking, door weatherstrip and sweeps, electrical outlet sealers, shower water savers, etc., and (3) up to $50 (retail value) of low cost weatherization materials at no charge to install in their own homes. In addition, for 300 low income households of persons too elderly or handicapped to install materials on their own, up to $50 (retail value) of free materials would be provided and installed at no charge by community volunteers.
In June, the Department was awarded $100,000 of CDBG funds to design and execute the proposal. Pilot workshops held during the summer, during which low-income participants played a major role in workshop design and evaluation, resulted in the development of a successful workshop format tailored to low income needs and a detailed plan for implementation of the overall project. Major features of the plan included (1) use of community centers, settlement houses, churches, CMACAO centers predominantly located in low income areas of the city at which ten or more workshops would be conducted; (2) recruitment of clients
through existing social service delivery networks, especially clients of the agencies providing workshop core sites; (3) pre-registration of workshop clients, limiting workshops to 15-25 participants; (4) three hour long workshops the format of which would include illustrated lecture, demonstrations and most significantly, hands on experience; (5) use of two project-trained leaders per workshop; (6) use of a mix of part-time $5.00 per hour staff and community volunteers to staff workshops and volunteers to do in home installation- (7) self-selection of materials by clients at the end of workshops, based on their just concluded workshop experience and knowledge of their homes' particular needs, rather than distribution of materials only in standardized, prepackaged kits; (8) one day, large group "campaign" style approach to the in home installation assistance component of the project.
Operation WeatherBeater officially kicked off September 28. The original plan was to service 1,500 households by December and 1,500 more in the spring of 1983. Public response to the project and demand for its services were so great that the decision was made to try and reach the entire goal of 3,000 by the end of the year. The only thing that prevented complete realization of that ambitious goal was the necessity to hold off scheduling workshops for two and a half weeks in November because of the slow delivery of materials to replenish stocks depleted by the unexpectedly fast start of the project.
By December 31 Operation WeatherBeater provided 127 workshops for 2,316 households and direct installation assistance to 134 others, utilizing part-time staff, about 250 volunteers and support services from over 25 public and private agencies to do so. Operation WeatherBeater is one of the most successful projects of this type in the nation. Numbered among the volunteers were approximately 180 employees of Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric Company who installed materials in the homes of 123 senior citizens and handicapped persons in one day. Other volunteers included 17 residents of the Wecare Health Facility who collectively contributed 250 hours to the project by packaging materials. The volunteer/community cooperation for Operation WeatherBeater demonstrates the concern and support of the Columbus communtiy.
At the close of 1982, sufficient additional workshops and installation assistance cases had been scheduled to reach the 3,000 goal by the end of January 1983.
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM Electric Vehicles
Delivery of the last of the EVs ordered by the City was completed in early 1982. Extensive graphics identification and deployment into regular city service of all 10 of the city's EVs were completed by mid-year. Extensive data collection regarding operation, preventive maintenance, and repair of the EVs instituted as required by USDOE was commenced and will continue throughout the city's formal participation in the project. Maintenance costs associated with the EVs have been higher than hoped for, though not higher than expected, especially when factors such as city mechanics' relative inexperience with electrical systems, the still experimental nature of such EV componentry, the limited availability of outside technical assistance and difficulties in obtaining spare parts quickly are considered.
The EVs have proven to be very fuel efficient, especially the subcompact-sized station wagons and sedans. It appears that they can be utilized in appropriate City missions for two-thirds to one-half the cost of fueling gasoline cars in similar missions.
In summary, by the end of 1982, the EVs logged 19,356 miles and the City staff working with them agreed that the three station wagons and four sedans were performing well enough to justify the continued experimentation with regard to City use even though they are not yet competitive with gasoline cars from a maintenance point of view. The three vans are far more problematical, and a final review of the feasibility for continued use of them in City service will be conducted in early 1983.
Public awareness activities associated with the EV project in 1982 included displays at the Ohio State Fair, the Franklin County Fair, the Farm Science Review, at the State House in connection with a carpooling promotion, and with the visit of the Ford Motor Company's World's Fair Alternative Fuels Fleet, and information talks and demonstration rides to meetings of several civic and professional groups including the Ohio Institute of Transportation Engineers and the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission Transportation Task Force.

UTILITIES GENERAL
The Department serves as liaison for Columbus residents with various utility companies and processed over 130 inquiries, complaints, and suggestions. This total is about 40% less than previous years due to the moratorium issued by the Governor which forbid the disconnection of utility service during the winter months. Most of these matters involved quality of service, suggestions and requests for extension of time to pay utility bills.
The continuance of rising energy costs and the spiraling unemployment rate had many Columbus residents not only seeking extensions on their utility bills, but also seeking additional sources of funding to help pay their utility bills. Our department worked closely with Columbia Gas and Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric Company to establish turn-off procedures and to educate consumers of the various programs available to assist them in paying their home heating bills.
UTILITY CASES AND ISSUES Columbia Gas of Ohio. Inc.
The department continued its practice of checking the heating value content of natural gas supplied in Columbus by Columbia Gas of Ohio, Inc. Under the present ordinance, natural gas is required to have an average heating value of 1,000 British Thermal Units per cubic foot. Periodically, samples drawn from entry points for gas into the city are analyzed using the Ohio State University facilities.
The BTU content of gas supplied to Columbus customers was checked on May 25, 1982, at three stations located at Fishinger Road and Kioka Avenue, Arlington Marina and Westbelt Drive. Samples were analyzed by Michael B. Kukla of Ohio State University and the quality was found to be above Columbus ordinance requirements.
The gas cost recovery program (GCR), set by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, permits Columbia Gas of Ohio to pass on to consumers the increases or decreases in the cost of gas purchased from its suppliers. These adjustments were audited by this department as they occurred throughout the year. The following adjustments were made:
March 8, 1982 An increase of 36.640 per MCF. This increase resulted from higher producer and supplier rates paid by the company's suppliers. At least half of this was caused by the start of deregulation.
June 7, 1982 An increase of 15.404 per MCF. This increase resulted from higher producer and supplier rates paid by the company's supplier.
September 10, 1982 An increase of 60.910 per MCF. This increase was caused by the quarterly GCR filing with the PUCO and reflects an increase in retail gas rates.
December 10, 1982 An increase of 13.11* per MCF. This increase was caused by the continuation of deregulation and higher producer and supplier rates paid by the company's supplier.
The staff attended the hearing conducted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to investigate the price increase by Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation including the 23% increase during the third quarter of 1981. Approximately 300 people attended the one day hearing and about 50 participants gave public testimony before the Commission. Among those testifying were Senator Metzenbaum, State Senator Schwarzwalder, Howard Petricoff of the Attorney General's staff and Representative Clarence Brown.
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation cut back production in their southwest wells because of reduction in sales of natural gas caused by the recession and continued conservation.
The department received the OPinion and Order from the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) in regard to the Columbia Gas case which the company filed August, 1981, requesting a $13.5 million increase, or 8.6 percent with a rate of return of 12.91 percent. The decision granted Columbia an increase in rates of $7 million. An average customer's bill (11 MCF) increased by $3.75 or 5.8 percent. Customer charges were increased to $3.55 per meter per month and 11.1740 per 100 cubic feet per meter per month for gas consumed.
On September 10, 1982, the company made known its intention to file for an additional rate increase of 4.39 percent.
The general service rates would have a customer charge of $5.25 per meter per month. If granted this would result in an increase of $2.98 to an average customer's bill.
The department will contract early next year, pending approval of legislation, with Scott Rothey of Rothey, Bell & Taub, Inc., for consultant services in opposing the rate increase by Columbia Gas of Ohio, Inc. The rate case hearing will be held during early summer 1983.
Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric Company The Public Utility Commission of Ohio gave their Opinion
and Order regarding the $100 million rate increase requested by Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric Company. The commission granted the company $41,580,000. The customer charge in this Opinion and Order was reduced from $5.00 to $4.00 per month. Monthly charges for customers who use no more than 600 kilowatt hours increased from $36.82 to $41.36. Over half of the customers in Columbus will fall in this category. Customers who use over 1,600 kilowatts a month increased from $83.46 to $87.73.
Evidence provided by the city's expert, Mr. Scott Rothey, retained by our department, resulted in residential customers paying a smaller percentage of Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric's total revenue than was proposed by the company. The PUCO denied Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric's rate base because the Nuclear Regulatory Commission halted temporary safety related construction at the Zimmer Plant. The rehearing started on December 22, 1982, but was adjourned before any witnesses were examined. It has been rescheduled for the first of the year.
Ohio Bell Telephone Company On April 3,1981, Ohio Bell filed its Notice of Intent to seek
a $125 million increase in telephone rates. Case proceedings began in February, 1982. As a result, a consortium of 18 Ohio cities interested in pooling financial resources to hire consultants and legal counsel to assist the City of Columbus and the Ohio Bell Consortium in opposing the proposed rate increase was formed. Contributions totaled $44,394.00 with the City of Columbus contributing $8,000.00 in addition to one-half of the legal services and all administration of the Ohio Bell Consortium.
On April 21, 1982, the Public Utility Commission of Ohio rendered its Opinion and Order which granted Ohio Bell $102 million of the requested $125 million. The following is an outline of some of the important issues raised by the Consortium of Ohio cities including Columbus in the case together with an explanation of its treatment by the Commission.
1. Band Consolidation—Ohio Bell Telephone proposed to continue consolidation by including bands 5 and 6 with already consolidated bands 1-4. The Consortium advocated that progress toward further elimination of this "value of service" banding be continued and that a timetable for complete elimination be set by the Commission. Decision: The Commission approved Ohio Bell Telephone's proposal for partial consolidation and reaffirmed the Commission's position of gradual progress toward complete consolidation.
2. Flat vs. Message Rates—Ohio Bell Telephone proposed to continue its de facto elimination of flat rate residential service by providing significant increases for flat rate service with little or no increases in message rate service charges of additional message units—all without benefit of any cost of service support. Decision: The Commission accepted the Consortium's position that in light of the absence of cost of service data supporting Ohio Bell Telephone's proposal, any increase that is found appropriate for basic exchange service is to be spread evenly across all residential and most non-residential access lines. (The Commission also ordered, based on recommendations by the Consortium, Ohio Bell Telephone to conduct other cost of service studies.)
3. No Increase for Business Equipment Prices—Ohio Bell Telephone proposed little or no increases in minimum prices on business equipment. Decision: The Consortium was successful in convincing the Commission that more revenue responsibility should be assigned to terminal equipment.
4. Message Toll and Related Services—Ohio Bell Telephone proposed no increase for intrastate toll. Decision: The Consortium successfully argued that since Ohio Bell Telephone reduced intrastate rates to
32 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982
be at "parity" with interstate rates in the last case, the same reasoning should apply in interstate rates.
5. Coin Telephone—Ohio Bell Telephone proposed no increase for coin telephone service. Decision: Although the Commission rejected the Consortium's proposal of advocating increasing coin telephone rates to 250, they did order Ohio Bell Telephone to perform a cost of service study on coin service using guidelines suggest by the Consortium.
6. Cost of Service Studies—Ohio Bell has refused to provide adequate cost of service data in its rate cases. Decision: In addition to the above-mentioned cost of service studies, the Consortium was successful in having the Commission order studies that would identify the incremental cost per call for the average residential and business call and identify the proper cost responsibility of inter- and intrastate message toll.
On March 17, 1982, Ohio Bell filed an additional rate request seeking $187.5 million. Case proceedings began in August, 1982. The unused contributions from the first case plus additional contributions from the consortium ($37,488.00) was used to retain consultants and legal counsel to assist in opposing this rate increase.
The Commission rendered its Opinion and Order on December 22, 1982, which granted Ohio Bell $103.6 million out of the requested $187.5 million. The increase was spread among the following services: basic exchange, private line, intrastate toll, and coin which was increased to 250.
With respect to residential rates in this case, the Commission, due to arguments by the Coalition and the Office of Consumers' Council, rejected Ohio Bell's proposals which would have increased flat rate service by 64 percent, measured rate by 20 percent and message rate by 47 percent.
The application filed by Ohio Bell Telephone Company with the PUCO to freeze the Centrax rates now in effect for a period of three years was approved.
A meeting was held on August 24, 1982, for all Communication Coordinators for the City of Columbus to discuss conservative and innovative techniques of ways to save money and at the same time improve the quality of telephone service being given to the public. MCI and "Sprint" Communication Systems were suggested as a means of cost control for long distance calls.
The department has continued to coordinate training sessions held at Ohio Bell for the Telephone Counselors. The Ohio Bell Telephone Company personnel have provided the instructions and direction needed. These sessions proved beneficial and successful, and it is hoped that the time and effort involved and the procedure adopted will produce an efficient and cost conscious Centrex II telephone system which is now being used by the City of Columbus.
The staff concluded an investigation of the pay telephones located on the City right-of-way. Ohio Bell Telephone verified the location of 120 out of 131 coin telephone locations. Eleven of the locations could not be verified by Ohio Bell. The staff looked at these 11 locations and 9 out of the 11 were found to be located on personal property. Two of them were questionable, but the staff did not feel that they should be moved.
Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) The department intervened in a public hearing held at the
PUCO office for the purpose of amending the rules, regulations, and practices governing the disconnection of gas and electric service to residential customers. Fifteen public witnesses were heard. Other organizations that intervened were the staff of the PUCO, the Welfare Rights Organization, and the City of Toledo. The major complaints of the above mentioned intervenors were to require customers whose service was disconnected to notify the appropriate people at the Welfare Department; another suggestion was to extend the winter period to April 15 in the northern areas of the state. Medical certifications and tenants' rights were also discussed. A decision has not been made as yet.
TELECOMMUNICATION CHANNEL 3 Government Telecommunication Center
The Government Telecommunication Center, or GTC 3 has been broadcasting programming on Columbus' four cable systems since Columbus Day, 1980. Its mission is to inform and educate the citizens of Columbus on governmental issues, activities, programs, and responsibilities
During calendar 1982, the Center continued to grow responding to the need of the city government to inform'the citizens of Columbus. "Metroguide", a video bulletin which
provides a readily available format for all government agencies to tell the public about their services and/or public meetings, carried approximately 2,000 messages. This includes the only complete listings of schedules for government and public access programs which air on Cable Chan-
The Center continued to televise each regularly scheduled City Council meeting, live and in its entirety. In conjunction with this program, the center also broadcast the City Council Administrative meetings in which the agenda for the next City Council meeting is agreed upon.
The process of informing the community about its governing process was further enhanced by the live televising of nine meetings of the Columbus Area Cable Television Advisory Commission; two meetings of the Development Commission; two Building Commission meetings; two City Council Hearings on City Charter Revision; one meeting of the Columbus Area Commission Chairpeople; one Urban Homestead Lottery Drawing; two Historic Resources committee meetings; two Public Hearings on Community Development; four live press conferences; and one Graphic Commission meeting. During the month of December, 13 budget hearings were video-taped in their entirety for broadcast with two broadcast live.
Also, during the course of the year, six taped specials were broadcast, including a three hour conference on "Telecommunications and the Future". Five program formats were regularly scheduled. "Connections", a twice-monthly call-in show on government issues and programs, continued throughout the year. "Bridging Disability", a call-in show on and for the disabled, was produced monthly from May through December. "People Serving People" is an informal interview/panel discussion series about city government services and special events. Seventeen new editions of this program were produced during the year. "For The Public Record" is produced from pre-recorded videotape programs supplied by local, state, and federal government departments, agencies, boards, and commissions. Six new editions of this program were aired during the year. "Columbus Insight" is a program that is based on a magazine format that allows the center to present information on city services and how the public can access them. The programs are prepared in the various locations where city employees carry out their daily duties. Seven new editions of "Columbus Insight" were produced during the year.
In order to aid various departments and divisions of the city government in their missions, nine training tapes were produced during 1982.
Public Access The Columbus Community Cable Access OCA), has en
tered into the second year of contractual obligations with the City of Columbus to manage the programs for public access.
The mission statement for the Columbus Community Cable Access, Inc. is to facilitate uses of public access cable television channels for both viewers and any citizens and groups who wish to originate programs. Goals include providing fair and equitable scheduling of public access cable television programs, free of charge; providing information, equipment, training and advice to organizations and individuals interested in public access cable television production; promoting the knowledge, image, and use of public access cable television in the community; encouraging the broad exchange of public access cable television resources including program materials, equipment, education, technical expertise, etc., with other public access cable television organizations and community institutions, wherever they exist; and establishing and maintaining a corporate structure that enables the accomplishment of previous goals efficiently and effectively.
In 1983, the construction of the cable interconnect will provide a separate public access channel, Cable Channel H (162-168-MHz), on a full-time basis.
CABLE INTERCONNECT NETWORK In November Columbus City Council authorized the
Director of Energy and Telecommunication to enter into a contract with Ernest O. Tunmann, President of Tele-Engineering Corporation, for engineering work to prepare plans and specifications for the cable communication service broadcast interconnect network which will connect City Hall with the four cable companies and facilitate video programming and voice and data transmission. The engineering work includes route survey and strand map update, distribution plant system design, terminal equipment configuration engineering, terminal equipment final engineering, preparation of bid requests, and bid evaluation

assistance. Engineering is to be completed on or before April 8,1983 with completion of the construction in the summer.
METROPOLITAN TELECOMMUNICATION RESEARCH COMMITTEE
The Metropolitan Telecommunication Research Committee was appointed in 1981 to coordinate local government telecommunication use and develop a telecommunication plan for the city. In 1982 seminars exposed the members to new telecommunication technologies and provided the members with an opportunity to better understand the full scope of the charge of the MTRC. The next major goal for the members was to produce a seminar for both elected and appointed officials from all government agencies to acquaint government officials with new telecommunication technologies. The seminar, "Telecommunication and the Future: Improving Municipal Efficiency", was attended by 115 persons.
The next major goal was to develop a questionnaire on local government agencies, their present resources, present and future needs and how to provide these new services at minimal cost to the users. The questionnaire was prepared and over 165 were mailed to the metropolitan community. The people at the various agencies were asked to respond to the questionnaire. This work was completed in the late fall. A professional telecommunication consultant will be brought on line to lead the committee members in the eva
luation of the returned questionnaire and to develop a final report and plan for implementation.
CABLE ADMINISTRATION AND REGULATION Private Cable Services
The four operators serving Columbus and the metropolitan area reached an important "bench mark" in 1982. The market place was penetrated to a level of 100,000 subscribers in Columbus and 150,000 subscribers in the metropolitan area. The operators are optimistic about the growth of the industry in 1983; however, the copyright tribunal issued an order in December that would substantially increase the fees for imported distant signals from independent stations. The net effect of this order, unless overturned by Congress, will be to force the operators to eliminate from their services several popular super stations such as: WGN, Chicago; WOR, New York and other independent stations from the west coast.
Approximately 750 cable complaints and service requests were received by the administrative staff. These complaints included requests for available cable communications services; requests for cable services in yet unserved areas; problems in billing; poor repair service; and the inadequacy of the operators' telephone systems, especially at billing time, to handle the communication needs of the subscribers. The operators have been cooperative with the staff in resolving problems to residents' satisfaction.
The current levels of penetration and saturation for cable communication services are (as of 12/31/82):
Homes Passed Saturation Level I (Basic Service) Penetration (Level I) Level II (Expanded Service) Penetration (Level I—Level II) Level III (HBO-Movie Channel & Other Pay Services). Additional Outlets Level IV—Ancillary Services
Fire-Burglar-Medical, Etc
Rates at the end of 1982 for cable services were:

Statewide Cable Organization Columbus was asked to develop an Ohio chapter of the
National Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors. This was developed and is affiliated with the Ohio Municipal League. Its goals are to provide an organizational tool for the dissemination of information about the proper role of local cable regulation to our state decision makers and provide a coordinating mechanism to help cities and villages insure eventual interconnection of separate systems. The members of a state NATOA chapter will serve to facilitate the sharing of community programming, both local origination and access programming, and will serve as an important focal point for the pooling of resources to produce programming of significant importance for our state. The members of a state NATOA chapter will play a signifi
cant role in the ongoing efforts to improve the exchange of information regarding cable regulation, both within our state and between states. Columbus Cable Television Administrator Ralph Squires was elected president.
Federal Legislation Senator Goldwater introduced Senate Bill 2172 to amend
the Communications act of 1934 and asked that it be cited as the "Cable Telecommunications Service Act of 1982". S2172, as reported, provides for a significant shift of cable regulatory authority from local government to the FCC. The staff, the Columbus Cable Communication, the Ohio Chapter of the National Telecommunications Officers and Advisors and others were successful in delaying action on the Bill; however, it is expected to be reintroduced in 1983.

MUNICIPAL CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION AFFIRMATIVE ACTION ANNUAL REPORT—1982
PREFACE The Affirmative Action Office which is designed to assist
in eliminating employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age and handicap recognizes that no single factor sufficiently describes employment discrimination and no single means will be adequate to eliminate it. .
In confronting the complaints, we examined elements ot our employment process, selection, recruitment, training opportunities, application of policies and procedures, promotion, etc. in an attempt to understand their impact on the Affirmative Action Plan and its success. Activity in this area also consis ted of des igning specific me thods and approaches to eliminate those aspects of employment discrimination which were previously identified. The Fire Division has responded to new charges of discrimination and plans are underway to bring about a resolution.
Litigation The City continues to comply responsibly with both
orders of the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division in connection with the Haynie and Brandt cases alleging racial and female discrimination in the Division of Police, respectively.
The Civil Action relating to "Dozier", alleging racial discrimination in the Fire Division remains constant.
The matter of Robert Murphy, et. al, vs. City of Columbus, et. al is pending in the U.S. District Court.
Program Authority and Plan Goals Ordinance 810-75 and Title Thirty-Nine, Article Three,
Section 3927.03, sets forth the affirmative action goals for minority representation in city government.
"The Affirmative Action Plan and Program shall be designed to bring about the goal of eighteen and five-tenths percent (18.5%) minority employment in all pay categories in the city and in each city agency, respectively, by January 1,1980. THEREAFTER, THE GOAL FOR THE PERCENTAGE OF MINORITY EMPLOYMENT IN EACH PAY CATEGORY SHALL BE THE PERCENTAGE OF MINORITY POPULATION WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITS OF THE CITY AS DETERMINED BY EACH FEDERAL DECENNIAL CENSUS COMMENCING WITH THE CENSUS OF 1980."
The Black representation in the corporate limits of Columbus is 22.1%.
SMSA Representation BLACKS: 11.09% FEMALES: 51.5% WORKFORCE: 44.1% CITY AREA: (Same proportion assumed)
Source—1980 Census data Whereas, Title Thirty-Nine, Article Three does not set
forth specific percentage goals for females, Section 3925.02 sets forth authority to revise the plan as necessary and which " . . . SHALL PROVIDE TO ALL EMPLOYEES AND PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYEES OF THE CITY EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY WITHOUT REGARD FOR RACE, COLOR, RELIGION, SEX OR NATIONAL ORIGIN." (The Equal Employment Policy was expanded to include age and handicap in 1976).
The 1980 Census Count relating to the total labor force which dilineates the representation by race and sex within the various job categories for the City of Columbus and Columbus Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) has recently been released. A comparison of occupations or job categories reflects that within the city government structure there are eight job categories and they are represented in all occupations within the total labor force of Columbus and the SMSA except Sales and Private households. City Government (Job Categories) 1. Officials and
Administrators
2. Professionals 3. Technicians 4. Protective Service
City of Columbus & SMSA (Occupation)
Executive, Administrative and Managerial Professional Speciality Technicians and related support Protective Service
Paraprofessional Office and Clerical Skilled Craft
8. Service/Maintenance
Administrative Support, including Clerical Craft and Repair, Machine Operators, Assemblers and Inspectors Service, except protective, Transportation and Material Moving Handlers, Equipment Cleaners, Helpers and Laborers
The Affirmative Action Program goal is to employ and promote minorities and women at a sufficient rate so that within certain time frames the minority employment percentage in each major EEO Job Category of City government reasonably reflects the ratio of minorities to the total population of the City of Columbus and the female employment percentage in each major EEO-4 Job Category of City government reasonably reflects the percentage of women in the labor force in the City of Columbus.
While the Affirmative Action Office recognizes that goals, intermediate targets and time frames are objectives to be pursued, Departments and Divisions must utilize all available resources for good faith efforts in the pursuit.
I. STATEMENT OF PROGRESS Despite 1982 being plagued by budget cuts and lay-offs,
Affirmative Action continues to be a viable influence in the employment picture of the City. Females and minorities continue to embark upon new careers and upward mobility.
Through the outreach efforts of Affirmative Action, 1982 has seen an increase in the number of handicapped applicants. In order to allow a handicapped person to compete equitably in the examination process accommodations have been handled on an individual basis.
1982 represents a seven-year span in the successful placement of females in non-traditional female jobs such as firefighters and wastewater plant operators as well as their increased visibility on the Police force. Continued efforts to retain and attract females are pursued in these and other such fields.
Seven years ago, the beginning of the Affirmative Action Program, the major concern was the total integration of minorities at every level of city government, and increasing female participation significantly, thereby, reducing the underutilization of both groups. Today, the response is encouraging. While there are areas of underutilization of females and minorities, a large number of Departments and Divisions show a significant representation of both groups.
The following is a result of conscious efforts to achieve the basic objectives of the Affirmative Action Program even though the Office realizes that equal employment opportunity progress is not limited to statistical data alone:
Total City Minority Representation at the End of 1982 Blacks—1531 or 24.8%; All Others—23 or .4%; Total—25.2% Blacks—Ranges 30 and above: Blacks—Non-Uniform Divisions: Blacks—Police Division (Sworn) Blacks—Fire Division (Uniform): Provisional Appointments
Promotions:
232 or 10.6% 1263 or 30.6% 137 or 11.3% 134 or 16.5%
Total—666, Blacks—231 or 35.3%
Total—795, Minorities—179 or 22.5%
Total City Female Representation at the End of 1982 Females represent: Ranges 30 and above: Non-Uniform Divisions: Police (Sworn): Fire (Uniform): Provisional Appointments
1352 or 22.0% 132 or 6.0%
29.9% 112 or 9.3%
2 or .2% Total—666, Females—184
or 27.6% Promotions: Total—795, Females—205
or 25.8% Females and minorities continue to hold key decision
making positions. These positions are very significant to the growth and progress of both groups.

swimming pools serve three (3) major areas: — Recreational swim; — Learn-to-Swim and water safety; and — Competitive Programs Each pool offered a wide variety of supervised aquatic
activities to surrounding communities. 210 lifeguards, both full-time and seasonal, were em
ployed to operate the ten (10) pools and the Riverfront Pad-dleboat Marina during the summer months. Prior to employment, all lifeguards were required to take a civil service test which was divided into two (2) parts; 1) a written test on aquatic safety; and 2) a water demonstration to test proficiency in lifesaving techniques. All lifeguards working at municipal swimming pools were required to hold certification in Advanced Lifesaving and/or Water Safety Instructor

Training, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and first aid. On June 12, our nine (9) outdoor swimming pools: Blackburn — 263 Carpenter Street Fairwood — 1392 Fairwood Avenue Glenwood — 1925 West Broad Street Lincoln — 1700 Ann Street Marion-Franklin — 2699 Lockbourne Road Maryland — 1380 Atcheson Street Sunshine — 545 Sullivant Avenue Tuttle — 240 West Oakland Park Windsor — 1300 Windsor Avenue
and our one (1) indoor facility, the Columbus Swim Center, 1160 Hunter Avenue, were opened to officailly start the summer season.
All pools operated seven (7) days a week through August 29, with recreational swimming offered daily from 1:30 to 8:00 p.m. The Columbus Swim Center operated eleven (11) months of the year offering recreational swimming 23 hours throughout the week during the winter months.
Admission for recreational swimming at all pools was ten cents regardless of age. Through the summer months, 383,396 participants took advantage of this service. During this period 196 swimming rescues were recorded at all ten (10) sites. Individual attendance records were as follows:
Blackburn 18,518 Fairwood 25,511 Glenwood 25,089 Lincoln 76,502 Marion-Franklin 30,242 Maryland 30,522 Sunshine 50,914 Swim Center 41,699 (Summer) Tuttle 53,884 Windsor 30,515
SUMMER TOTAL 383,396 Swim Center 57,060 (Wint >r)
OVERALL PARTICIPATION 440,456 Outside groups (Not included in total) 15,556 Leam-to-Swim Program — Classes were offered at all pools during the summer from 11:30 to 12:30 and from 12:30 to 1:30 and year round at the Swim Center. All classes were offered free of charge, taught by certified Water Safety Instructors and sanctioned by the American Red Cross.
Classes were offered for beginner, advanced beginner, intermediate, swimmer and advanced swimmer skill levels. Instruction was also given in advanced lifesaving and water safety instructor training and a special class for Adapted Aquatics was initiated at our Tuttle Pool for disabled swimmers. During the winter months at our indoor swim center, there were 4,419 participants in the Learn-to-Swim classes (1,611 boys; 1,747 girls and 1,061 adults). During the summer months, the department sponsored five (5) separate sessions of free Learn-to-Swim classes at all pools. Each session provided each student with ten (10) 60-minute periods of instruction, involving, 5,210 participants. In addition, special classes were held on Saturdays and Sundays for adult, preschool and handicapped swimming instruction. Daily participation counts for these classes over the summer months totalled 1,287.
Realizing the importance of promoting aquatic safety, the Recreation and Parks Department aligned its efforts with the American Red Cross in providing both personnel and facilities to conduct programs which best reflected the interest of both organizations and filled the needs of the communities they served. Through combined efforts, we effectively offered free learn-to-swim classes, trained water safety instructors, held clinics to update swimming instructors in new teaching methods, certified instructors for handicapped swimming, pool management clinics were held, trained lifeguards and offered numerous classes in first aid training. Competitive Swim Programs — Held at all pools during the summer months, this program was funded through a Department of Labor grant. Our department provided swim team practices at all pools from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., Monday through Thursday with Friday being reserved for swimming meets. At the conclusion of the summer, all ten (10) pools met at Sunshine Pool to determine a city-wide champion. Continued support of this program was again evidenced by the increased number of participants and the enthusiastic support of parents at the meets. This year a record 775 contestants represented all ten pools in the championships. Swimming preliminaries totalled 1,263 entries divided into 160 heats while the Diving Championship had a record 112 contestants; this total made the largest championship to
date. Over half the participants were products of our Learn-to-Swim Program.
During the winter months, the department worked closely with the Central Ohio Swimming Association to promote year-round competition in communities. We held local age group swim meets every third Saturday of the month at our indoor facility. In addition, the indoor facility was made available two (2) weekends during the winter season to conduct larger meets — the New Year's Invitational and State Class "A" Championships, which drew swimmers from all over Ohio and surrounding states.
Over the years, age group swimming in the Columbus area has steadily grown and is credited by many to be the result of the "availability" of the department's indoor swim center which is not only used to hold age group swim meets, but is used extensively for area swim club practices.
Special arrangements were made for senior citizens to participate free of charge at Sunshine Pool, Monday through Thursday from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and at the Columbus Swim Center on Wednesday mornings from 9:30 to 10:30. Full-time recreation leaders were in charge of this program.
The department's swimming pools were made available during non-recreational hours on a rental basis to local age group swim teams, school groups and civic associations. Rental of these facilities was based on actual cost to the department for extension of services.
PEDAL BOAT MARINA The Marina was operated in conjunction with the down
town Riverfront Amphitheater and floating bandshell. 16 pedal boats (previously donated in part by area businessmen) were made available for use daily from 11:00 a.m. to 8:?0 p.m. at a nominal charge of 60 cents per person for half an hour.
As an added attraction, senior citizens, handicapped persons and other interested participants could ride the two (2) pontoon boats which were donated by McDonalds' Corporation and the Downtown Kiwanis Club. These pontoons were used exclusively for hourly excursions along the river at which time points of interest and historical facts were presented.

CULTURAL ARTS CENTER The Cultural Arts Center is a truly unique model of adap
tive reuse that saved the life of a beautiful old building and allowed it to become home to a major community cultural institution. Art classes, exhibits, workshops, concerts, poetry readings and other artistic programs make the Cultural Arts Center a beehive of activity throughout the year. Main Gallery—The monthly exhibits are selected through a jury process by the visual arts committee of the center. The art forms consist of painting, indoor/outdoor sculpture, ceramics, fibre art, metal work and photography. 168 local and out of town artists were selected to exhibit in 1982.
The Gallery openings or artists' receptions take place the beginning of each month which provides an opportunity for the public to discuss the exhibits with the artists. Loft Gallery—This third floor exhibition space is offered to artists on a first come basis. Each artist is responsible for his own installation and the works are on display for one (1) month. This gallery is unique in Central Ohio. Concerts—Sunday concerts at the Cultural Arts Center have greatly enhanced the performing arts component of the program. Appearances by members of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra numbered 13 with 3 other concerts by local musicians' groups rounding out the series.
Courtyard Tuesdays, the summer concert series provided 13 noon concerts for the downtown lunch crowd.
Funding for these concerts was provided by the Ohio Arts Council and the Musicians' Performance Trust Fund. Classes—13 different art classes were offered by the Cultural Arts Center this year. Each class session was 7 to 8 weeks in length. Cost per class was $15.00 for once-a-week and $30.00 for twice-a-week. 2,437 students enrolled in classes at the center.

Dr. Rosemary Joyce, noted folk humanities scholar, assisted with the development of the entire folk art and culture project. Coversations and Coffee—Each Thursday, a noon time group gathered in the Loft Gallery area to discuss contemporary art issues and exhibits. The speakers, who appeared free of charge, included exhibiting artists, mimes and community leaders. Films and slides added to the group discussions.

SAFETY PROGRAM The Safety Program continued to emphasize a safe and
healthy environment for both participants and employees of the Recreation and Parks Department. Through continued training and education, an inspection and investigation program, the department strived to reduce both personal injuries and unnecessary costs due to accident frequency and serverity.
During 1982, increased efforts were made to lower the number of injuries sustained by Recreation and Parks per
sonnel. With the increased emphasis of job safety and accident prevention that has come as a result of training and inspection during the last few years, injuries were reduced by 48% over the previous twelve month period. These programs will be continued in our on-going effort to eliminate accidents and injuries.
Employees were given the opportunity for instruction in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and for those employees most needing it, first-aid training. These courses were taught by instructors certified by the Red Cross and Heart Association. .
Supervisors continue to monitor the work station for both physical and environmental hazards through the use of the supervisors' checklist. Inspections were made on a periodic basis and corrective action was taken as needed.
Hearings were held for all vehicle accidents. These hearings not only allowed us to maintain training and safety equipment needs, but also were responsible, in part, for the substantial reduction of vehicular accidents in 1982.
The Safety Division administers all Workers' Compensation claims for the department and the Employee Services Program. During the past year, the record keeping for these programs was added to the computerized payroll/personnel system. This system will allow for more in-depth review of the statistical patterns involved in accidents and injuries and will provide for more timely processing of claims.
Over the past several years, the Safety Program has endeavored to provide a safe and healthy environment for employees and participants of the Recreation and Parks Department. As employees continue to increase their awareness of safety practices and procedures, and display a safety mindedness attitude, we continue to reduce both personal and property accidents and develop a quality environment for employees to work and participants to enjoy recreational activities.

COLUMBUS ZOO
In 1976, City Council passed an ordinance which transferred the responsibili ty of adminis te r ing the contract be tween the City and the Co lumbus Zoological Association to the Department of Recreat ion and Parks .
During this adminis t ra t ion, the Recreat ion and Pa rks staff has cont inued to give assis tance wi th the member sh ip drive, capital improvements , promot ional projects, personnel and accounting adminis t ra t ion.
The Columbus Zoo has cont inued its ' s teady growth as a nationally recognized zoological inst i tut ion. This recognition was vividly demons t r a t ed in April when t h e Zoo hos ted the largest regional conference in the history of the American Association of Zoological Pa rks and Aquar iums (AAZ-PA). Fur ther peer acceptance came in Sep tember when the Columbus Zoo was awarded the National Conference for 1985.
Gate a t tendance cont inued to c l imb — reaching 575,407 visitors in 1982. Our g roup sales d e p a r t m e n t b rough t in 120,000 visitors for company picnics and other special outings. This growth and the visibility of the zoo in the community can be a t t r ibuted to several factors.
Efforts by Zoo staff to p r o m o t e t h e Zoo th rough publ ic appearances and marke t ing activities;
Cooperation by local radio, television and print media in promot ing and cover ing zoo bir ths , special events and other activities; and
Cont inued upgrad ing of t h e an imal collection, facilities and programs. The zoo cont inued the ongoing rehabil i tat ion of old build
ings into "new" such as: — Completion of remodel ing the amphib ian bui lding with
an addit ion that provides year round hous ing and viewing of the Aldabra tortoises;
— Creating a h o m e for the blackfooted penqu ins from the old seal exhibit ;
— Remodel ing the old giraffe house into an explorat ion center for educat ional p rograms; and
— Stuccoing t h e a q u a r i u m a n d several o the r facilities; cont inuing the insulat ion and general repair program throughout the g rounds .
New installations included a second cheetah yard and a new diet ki tchen. The Horticulture Department and g round crews cont inued to outdo themselves: S o m e 40,000 plants b loomed th roughout the warm months . Trees and other p lant ings were added, and the g rounds were spotless. The Education Department offered increasingly popular children and adu l t c lasses a n d a gues t l ec ture series. These p rograms were e n h a n c e d by mul t i -med ia p re sen ta t i ons photographed and created by zoo staff and volunteers .
The zoo's bir th rate was impress ive: — Polar bear, Icee, was successfully reared by her mother
and found a new h o m e in Detroit th is pas t fall; — The bald eagles laid two eggs; — Duma, our first male chee tah to survive, was hand-
ra i sed by R e c r e a t i o n a n d P a r k s D i r ec to r , Me lv in Dodge;
— A baby zebra explosion, black bears , camel , kangaroos , gibbon, gemsbok, and many o ther infants a d d e d to the collection; and
— Lowland gorillas, Zura and OJ, born in 1982, found a new h o m e at the San Francisco Zoo.
Volunteers cont inued to cont r ibu te to the zoo's growth. Our Docents , w h o by yea r ' s e n d n u m b e r e d 152, r ece ived a Mayor 's A w a r d for V o l u n t a r y Se rv i ce and logged over 18,000 hours of tours , ta lks , an imal watch and special event duties. A record 240 ZooAides, the teen crew, supp lemen ted staff efforts in many areas whi le pho tographers , art ists and others gave their t ime and talents . Zoofari and WAZOO also had a record year.
Community suppor t also cont inued: — Big Bear sponsored the 1982 Zoo calendar: — Schmidt Nursery dona ted p layground equ ipment ; and — The en t rance lake fountain was courtesy of J . T. Ed
wards Company. Development Director — A grant was received from the Columbus Founda t ion and the posi t ion of Deve lopment Director was created to m a n a g e grant wri t ing and fund raising efforts.
The progress m a d e dur ing 1982 is, in great part, a result of the cooperation be tween the C o l u m b u s Zoo staff, Co lumbus Zoological Association, the City of Co lumbus , Recreat ion and Parks Depar tment , and m a n y o ther public and private agencies/organizations.
CONCESSIONS 1982 was a year of cont inued improvement in concession
areas and policies. Some addi t ions/ improvements included: — New concess ion s t and nea r en t r ance to P a c h y d e r m
Building; — Colorful portable fruit dr ink s tands added; — Soft ice cream, mi lkshakes , sundaes and banana splits
added to dairy menu; and — Numerous i tems added th roughout concessions.
Riverview Restaurant With the increasing useage d e m a n d by private groups for
the Riverview Restaurant , new equ ipmen t was added. In addi t ion to t h e p r iva te pa r t i e s , local civic g roups were accommodated weekly, and a s t rong effort is being m a d e to have this facility in use every night of the week.
Quality Food Service The year of 1983 will be devoted to cont inued improve
ments in the quality of the food and beverages served at the Zoo. Under the supervis ion of the Concession Commit tee Chai rman, qual i ty food and beverage tes t s will be conducted th roughout the year to assure visitors that they will receive quali ty p roduc t s , at fair prices, served by clean, courteous employees .
Other notable improvements included the food and beverage ga rden (Chi ldren ' s Zoo), add i t iona l umbre l l a t ab les throughout the g rounds for visitors ' comfort, and new signs.
Amusement Park Concessions by Cox will also operate the Zoo A m u s e m e n t
Park for the third year, and 1983 will cont inue to show major i m p r o v e m e n t s a t t h e pa rk . I m p r o v e m e n t s will i nc lude beautification, new rides, new games of chance, and improved food and beverage services.
Company Outings Increased efforts are being m a d e to book company em
ployee out ings at the Park with an emphas i s on visiting the Zoo. The Park and Zoo combinat ion provides an ideal educational and recreational package.
The A m u s e m e n t Pa rk in 1983 will also feature, each Friday, Saturday and Sunday , the Zoo Pa rk Bazaar.
AQUARIUM The census for the Ar thur C. J o h n s o n Aquar ium for the
calendar year 1982 contained 14 orders , 51 families, 251 species and 5,846 spec imens .
Maintenance and improvements to the aquar ium bui lding and facilities as follows:
— Racks built; — Tanks repaired and installed; — Roof replacement ; — Doors replaced; and — Insulat ion to various facilities. T h e staff w o r k e d c o n t i n u o u s l y w i t h o r g a n i z a t i o n s ,
groups, Aquar ium Societies and volunteers to educa te the public and worked to expand the Breeding Program.
Some examples of their activities included: — Classes and lectures given to Boy Scouts of America; — Assisted PM Magazine (filming segment on the Nurse
Shark); — Display set at H o m e and Garden and Spor t s Shows at
S ta te Fa i rgrounds ; — Tra in ing P r o g r a m for s t u d e n t s from t h e N o r t h w e s t
Career Center held; — Dayton Aquar ium Society given tour of facility; and — Central Ohio Aquar ium Society held week long show in
the Educat ion Bui lding. Spec ies w e r e a c q u i r e d t h r o u g h b i r ths , ha t ch ings and
breeding loans. The exterior of the facility was s tuccoed, which added to
the appearance of the facility and improved cooling and heating.
BIRDS The Bird Depa r tmen t ended 1982 wi th an inventory of 320
s p e c i m e n s r e p r e s e n t i n g 101 spec ies , 38 families and 20 orders.
Several needed spec imens were purchased for the collection as follows:
— Male sarus crane and male demoisel le crane for lone females;
60 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
— Four greater African flamingos (waiting for permit to acquire six American flamingos as a gift from Hialeah Racetrack in Florida)
Among the hundred or so hatchings this year, the most unique was the Rothschild or Bali mynahs. This species is on the endangered list with only about 200 still existing in their native habitat, the Island of Bali.
A pair of our East African crown cranes were moved to an area to enhance propagation. The move was successful. Though the eggs were infertile, this is the first time the Columbus Zoo has had any species of crane lay eggs.
Many lectures and tours were presented to groups by the staff. New Penquin Exhibit
This exhibit, opened to the public in the spring, was realized when the old sea lion area was renovated with simulated rock work, waterfalls and a viewing area.
A benefit was held in September 1981 to help purchase a colony of penquins for the zoo. We now have ten (10) black-foot penquins on exhibit purchased from the Detroit and Baltimore Zoos. These penquins are native to the southern coastal region of Africa.
DEVELOPMENT In October 1982 the Development Department was estab
lished with the appointment of a Director of Development. The director's position was made possible by a grant from the Columbus Foundation. This department is responsible for the coordination of membership, Adopt-an-Animal, foundation and corporate grants as well as all donations and gifts.
Membership increased during 1982 from approximately 3,200 to 4,335. We are very proud of the fact that our membership renewal rate is approximately 65%. Members' Day brought in over 3,500 individuals for a fun-filled day.
The Adopt-an-Animal Program saw an increase in the number of guardians and benefactors (formerly called parents and cousins) who contributed to the feeding of zoo animals for a year. In 1981 we had 125 contributors who gave $20,965 for the feeding of 148 animals. That number doubled in 1982 to 252 individuals who gave $30,342 for 320 animals.
We attribute part of the increase in both membership and Adopt-an-Animal to a December holiday promotion encouraging people to consider gifts of Zoo memberships and the Adopt-an-Animal package.
EDUCATION Phenomenal expansion in programs and facilities is
perhaps the best description of the Education Department for 1982.
Summer day camp, children and adult programs, and the ZooAide Program were all expanded to accommodate the increasing demand for quality and experiental education for all participants.
These programs were complemented by a new "Camp-in" program. This weekend program provided an extremely unique adventure for school groups, scout troops and other youth organizations.
Program expansion was supported and enhanced by our Docents and the development of a second education facility — the Exploration Center (formerly the old giraffe house). This facility offers strong interaction for everyone. The public walk-through has been designed to provide challenging graphics focused on ecological themes. Zoo visitors have an opportunity to interact with live specimens and other biological material in the living lab. Other features in this renovated facility include staff offices and two large classrooms to accommodate the expanded educational programs for 1983.

MAMMALS The Mammals Department ended 1982 with 232 speci
mens representing 58 forms. The responsibility for the care of these animals belongs to the personnel in five areas:
— Apes, Bears, Cheetahs and South American Grotto; — Children's Zoo; — Diet Kitchen; — Herbivore/Carnivore Display; and — Pachyderms During the past year there was much activity in all five
sections: Apes, Cheetahs. Etc.
The apes, cheetahs, etc., recorded these breedings for 1982: cheetah, gorilla, chimp and coatimundi. The chimp breeding was the first for our pair and ended in a miscarriage at an early stage. Last year's black bear and polar bear cubs were sold and we are now preparing for rebreeding of the females in the spring of 1983.
In the summer of 1982 we received a female gorilla on breeding loan from the St. Louis Zoo and we are looking forward to successfully introducing her to our breeding male. An unsuccessful attempt was made to artificially inseminate our gorilla, Toni. A second effort will be made in 1983.
Construction in this section included: — New cheetah yard east of pachyderm building; — Facelift for the ape house playroom and public aisles;
and — New graphics in the old ape house.
Children's Zoo This area cared for two gorillas born last year until they
were shipped to a new home. The Children's Zoo recorded births of Japanese maca
ques, pygmy goats, Barbados sheep, fallow deer and a donkey. A panda was traded to the Portland Oregon Zoo to prepare for the breeding season in early 1983.
In the spring, a representative from Metroparks — Slate Run Living Historical Farm, presented a sheep shearing demonstration. Diet Kitchen
In addition to daily preparation of all the diets in the Zoo, workload this year included the aftermath of probably the largest Christmas Party for the Animals food donation ever. Herbivore/Carnivore
This section recorded a variety of births: Thomson's gazelle, blackbuck antelope, gemsbok, llamas, cavies, sika deer, nilgai, dromedary camel and both Damara and Grant's zebra.
We received a pair of snow leopards and a male white Bengal tiger. With these additions, we should again be in the business of breeding large cats. Pachyderm
Birth of a South American Tapir was recorded. No elephant birth. Keepers are still proceeding with work
on semen collection and preservation in the black rhino and hormone fluctuation in elephants. A camel training program was initiated.
Currently, we possess the only individual subspecies of the forest elephant in the Western Hemisphere. We have been negotiating with the West African nations about the possibility of obtaining a small group of forest elephants and are hopeful that this project will be undertaken in 1983.
Thanks to the combined efforts of staff members, a dedicated group of summer help and volunteers, the Mammals Department has enjoyed another fine year and we are looking forward to an exciting 1983.
MEDIA PRODUCTIONS This department has the responsibility of visually present
ing the Columbus Zoo to groups, organizations, corporations, agencies, members and supporters.
Throughout 1982, a variety of techniques were used to generate interest in the Zoo among the general public—from photography and printed material to video tape.
The Columbus Zoo Volunteer Photography Club provided the Zoo with photo needs in the following areas:
—Adopt-an-Animal Program (black and white and color prints);
—Marketing Department, Development Department (slides, black and white and color prints);
CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 61
—Education Department (slides); —Docent Association (slides and prints); —Research Department (slides and black and white
prints); —Magazines and Newspapers (slides, black and white and
color prints); and —Zoo Calendar (slides). Multi-image slide presentations (with the use of a multiple
number of projectors synchronized with a soundtrack) have played an important role in Zoo promotion and education. The following shows were produced in-house during the year: with two exceptions, WNCI recorded all soundtracks with studio time and talent donated; and WLVQ donated studio time and talent for two shows:
"India . . . In Search of a White Tiger" (Four-projector show about Zoo Director's expedition)
"Multi-Media Productions at your Zoo" (Four-projector presentation for the 1982 AAZPA Great Lakes Regional Conference)
"Zoo Conference I") (Four-projector show about activity during the three-day
AAZPA Regional Conference and presented at the closing banquet)
"Africa" (Two-projector presentation on the June 1982 Zoo-sponsored safari to Kenya, Africa)
"Zoo Conference Show II" (Four-projector show presented at the 1982 AAZPA National Conference—Columbus Zoo's bid for the 1985 National Conference)
"Build A Gorilla A Villa" (Four-projector presentation to act as a fund raising tool in the Zoo's plan to construct a new outdoor gorilla habitat)
Three other multi-imate shows were produced, one b> an audio-visual company and two by students from Ohio State University:
"Columbus Zoo" (Two-projector promotion show produced by MC3, a Columbus-based production company)
"What's All Happening at the Zoo?" (Two-projector educational show for elementary levels produced by students from the Journalism Department of OSU)
"History of the Columbus Zoo" (Six-projector show tracing the Zoo's history since its inception in 1927 produced by a group of students from the Industrial Design Department of Ohio State University)
Video tape has proven to be an invaluable resource, espe-) cially in the areas of research and education. Video tapings i included:
—A closed circuit video system was focused on Bomba, a female Asian elephant, to monitor her activities;
—Ultrasound procedure performed on Bomba to check for pregnancy;
—Cheetah introduction; —Necropsies performed on a Nile hippo and a black
rhino; —Japanese macaque behavior project; —Polar bear and cub on their emergence from the winter
den; and —A variety of additions to the collection. Although all video taping was done in-house, editing had
il to be done with outside service. Another visual technique used to reach the public was
It through printed material: —Concepts of a full-color promotional brochure were con
ceived, and production will begin in 1983. —The 1983 "Limited Edition" Columbus Zoo Calendar
went on sale at Kroger Stores, with all proceeds being given to the Zoo. The Kroger Company made the production of this exquisite calendar possible.
—An honor was bestowed on the Columbus Zoo when it was asked to provide the photography for the AAZPA Membership Brochure. This brochure will be distributed by AAZPA and its' member institutions across the country.
The Media Production Department also worked on a num-id ber of special projects:
—Early in 1982, administered the College Intern Program and worked with photography interns throughout the year.
—Coordinated the Education Program and sessions for the 1982 AAZPA Great Lakes Conference.
—Coordinated the administration of grant funds amounting to $35,000 from the Institute of Museum Services.
—Aided in the initial design of the proposed outdoor gorilla exhibit; and
—Aided in the organization of the Columbus Zoo's Annual Wildlife Art Show.
REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS The year 1982 saw the completion of the last phase of ma
jor work involved in converting the old Small Mammals Building into an Amphibian Building. The facility was partially converted to amphibian displays in 1980, with the remainder of the displays completed in 1981. Construction in 1982 has been a matter of completion of renovation of the service areas and service systems to allow for the close control and manipulation of environments that is required by these animals.
Additionally, an annex was constructed to the Amphibian Building to house the giant Aldabra Tortoises during the winter. This facility was designed to be more than a holding cage and incorporated several aspects of construction that served a variety of purposes for the turtles, as well as providing an attractive year-round display.
To complete the project, the building and annex were covered with cedar siding, which made a significant improvement in the appearance of that area of the grounds.
The animal collection has shown growth in conjunction with the opening of new facilities. The present inventory (876 specimens, with 66 specimens in on breeding loans and 41 specimens out on breeding loans; and a total of 901 specimens on hand) is the largest in the history of the zoo, and possibly in the country. These numbers do not, however, reflect a desire to simply accumulate all of the specimens that can be accumulated. A large part of the increase (from 765 specimens on hand at the end of 1981) reflects the enlargement of our amphibian collection and a subsequent enlargment of the lizard collection; this latter due to availability of cage space in the Reptile Building.
Many of the specimens on hand reflect groups of progeny from the collection which are being retained in the collection for a variety of reasons. Overall, the increase reflects success in a department program to maintain breeding groups of many forms as opposed to single specimens or pairs.
Breeding results for the year in terms of numbers are the best that the collection has had.
A total of 194 progeny were produced representing 27 forms. A completely new and unique experience was the occurrence of births or hatchings in every month of the year.
Noteworthy births and hatchings were: —A first captive breeding of South American toad-headed
turtles (Batrachemys nasuta); the hatching of third-generation Costa Rican ground turtles Rhinoclemmys pulchirrima manni), the parents of these were hatched here in 1979 as a result of captive breeding; the birth of three litters of Madagascan ground boas (Acrantophis dumerillii), two of which were bred by animals raised in the collection which were the result of a breeding loan.
—With the birth of a litter of cantils (Agfcistrodon b. bilineatus), as a result of a breeding loan, to one of the females born here in 1977, a total of 5 forms have been maintained in the collection through four successive generations. A total of 18 forms has now been maintained through three or more successive generations. At present, 343 specimens in the collection are captive bred (39% of the total).
—Two additional forms bred while out on breeding loan, and progeny were received by the collection.
—As is typical, however, success in some forms was marred by failure or near misses in others. The adult pair which produced the hatchling toad headed turtles both died as a result of chemical contamination of their tank; and 4 of 7 Costa Rican ground turtles, raised here since 1979, which produced young this year died from undetermined causes. Breeding was not fully successful in alligator snapping turtles (Macroclemmys temmincki); although three living young were hatched, none survived until the end of the year. Although this form has bred in captivity in several collections, this was the first captive breeding to have occurred with the animals maintained under artificial conditions indoors throughout the year. Viable eggs which incubated to full term, but did not hatch, were produced by greater plated lizards (Gerrhosaurus major grandis) and yellow spotted sideneck turtles (Podocnemis unifilis).
The past twelve months have been a series of ups and downs for the Research Department of the Columbus Zoo,
with fortunately, more ups than downs. However, two important reproductive physiology projects (black rhino and Asian elephant) came to an unavoidable, and less than satisfactory, close during 1982. Black Rhino Artificial Breeding Project
The first major disappointment occurred when much of the Black Rhino Artificial Breeding Project was terminated with the sudden demise of "Bonnie", our female black rhino. Bonnie's death came as the result of a hemolytic anemia of unknown etiology. This rapidly progressing and almost always fatal disease process seems to occur with distressing frequency among captive black rhinos. All of the information obtained during the five-day duration (normally a 48 to 72 hour process) of Bonnie's condition was provided to Dr. Eric Miller of the St. Louis Zoo, who is currently investigating this phenomena.
On a positive note, one aspect of the project continued with the collection of semen from our male, "Clyde". In August, the Greater Cincinnati Wildlife Research Foundation, which functions under the direction of Dr. Betsy Dresser as a joint venture of the Cincinnati Zoo, King's Island Wild Animal Safari, and the University of Cincinnati, became a participant in studies of the preservation of black rhino semen. Semen was collected from Clyde and taken to Cincinnati, where investigation into maximum efficiency of various extenders was conducted. With the departure of an intern involved in this project, the cooperative efforts were temporarily discontinued in December. It is anticipated that delivery of semen to Cincinnati will resume in 1983.
Bomba. Female Asian Elephant Another disappointment arose in 1982 when it eventually
became apparent that Bomba, one of two female Asian elephants housed at the Zoo, would not be giving birth relatively soon after all. This has been a particularly "mysterious" situation, since the assumption of Bomba's pregnancy was based on the results of numerous intra-pelvic examinations via ultrasound, serum assays for progesterone, and even electrocardiograms, all of which seemed to indicate pregnancy (as did progressive changes in Bomba's appearance!). There remains, perhaps, a remote possibility that Bomba was suffering from some reproductive disorder, although this would be difficult to verify. At any rate, back to the drawing board for Bomba and Coco. Lowland Gorilla Artificial Insemination
One of the more exciting endeavors in 1982 was the artificial insemination of Toni, an 11-year-old lowland gorilla. After several months of urine collection, assay, and synchronization of ovulation via an antiestrogenic non-steroid, Toni was inseminated on 12 December 1982 with semen provided by the Milwaukee County Zoo. As of 31 DEcember 1982, it was difficult to determine, with certainty, whether conception had indeed taken place. Due to unexpected problems encountered with semen quality upon thawing, however, it is highly unlikely that the attempt will have proven to be successful. Based upon the appearance of the cervix and the location via ultrasound of an encouraging structure on the ovary, the effort at regulating the time of ovulation appeared to be successful. If indeed Toni is not pregnant, the procedure will be repeated in the first half of 1983.
A project of this sort is a major undertaking, involving a number of individuals from several facilities. In addition to several members of the Research Advisory Council (recognized later in this report) and numerous Zoo employees (particularly the keepers in the Ape House), the following persons and facilities must be recognized for their contributions: Dr. Ken Gould, Yerkes Primate research Ctr. Dr. Gil Boese, Dr. Bruce Beehler and Ken Kawata, Mil
waukee County Zoo Dr. James Geyer, Bill Chestnut, Glen Landis, Kay Wheeler
and others of Biomedical Reference Labs, a division of LaRoche Biomedical Labs
Dr. Larry Stempel Merrill Research Center
Several persons either affiliated with the Research Advisory Council or conducting research at the Zoo were participants in the AAZPA Great Lakes Regional Conference held here in April. These participants and their presentations were as follows: Dr. Harley Blank—"Slide Presentation of the Application of Ultra-Sound Technology in Zoos" Dr. Richard McClead—"Neonatal Care in Gorillas"
Mark Stanley—"Time Budget Analysis of Exotic Ungulates in Relation to Predator Behaviour in a Zoological Garden" Anna Bellisari and Paul W. Sciulli—"Application of Growth Standards to the Early Growth of Captive Gorillas"
Additionally, an informal session dealing with gorillas in captivity was coordinated by the Research Director.
Internship Program and Graduate Students A numbef of students from surrounding colleges and uni
versities undertook research projects at the Zoo. Most of the students participated in the Zoo's Internship Program, now fully coordinated by the Education Department. A graduate student at Ohio State University began work on his doctorate in 1982 and his project is scheduled for completion in 1985. His project is an investigation into hormonal and behavioral correlates of infertility in captive gorillas. The project has already involved cooperation from a number of institutions maintaining gorillas, indicating recognition of the potential in the proposal to significantly affect the captive propagation of gorillas.
Research Advisory Council The Research Advisory Council was again an important
part of the Zoo's research efforts in 1982. All of the projects previously mentioned, as well as other work undertaken in the past year, involved members of the council. Most of the members went to great extents in assisting the Columbus Zoo and other institutions in their efforts. As an example: Dr. Walter Threlfall and the Research Director traveled to Benson's Wild Animal Park in New Hampshire to collect semen and blood serum from a male gorilla previously classified as non-spermatogenic. Dr. Margaret Snyder, formerly of the Ohio State Research Foundation and a member of the Research Advisory Council, joined the Zoo staff in October as Development Director. 1982 Research Advisory Council: Joseph Cross, M.D. (Chairperson) Internal Medicine—Millhon Clinic, Inc.

It should be noted that without the assistance and coop eration of the Columbus Zoo staff, supervisors and keeper: in particular, none of the previously mentioned project: would have been possible.

DEPARTMENT OF CITY TREASURER ANNUAL REPORT—1982
Section 88 of the Columbus City Charter states in part: The Treasurer shall be the custodian of all money belong-
n ing to the City and, subject to the provisions of any specific il trust, of all money held in trust by it." Section 92 of the 0 Columbus City Charter states: "The Treasurer shall keep an n; accurate, systematized and detailed account of all money 1 received and disbursed by him."
The financial schedules and comments contained in this •)i report present the transactions of 1982 and the financial •q position at December 31, 1982. The following comments on dl the Schedules are made in order to clarify and expand cer-m tain data. 'E SCHEDULE I indicates cash receipts and disbursements each n in excess of three billion, 415 million dollars during the year '!11982. This Schedule represents the cash flow through the 1 Treasurer's Office, whether it be normal collections or a re-i suit of investment activity.
A SCHEDULE II indicates the composition of the year-end bal-IL ance of assets and liabilities for which the Treasurer was >i accountable, including Treasury Investments. I: SCHEDULE III presents the year-end reconciliation of active I checking accounts of the City of Columbus. I SCHEDULE IV shows where the City of Columbus bank > accounts are maintained and the balances and the amount i of collateral pledged to the City of Columbus at December t 31, 1982. Taxpayers' funds are protected by Section 135.18, >:-iRevised Code of Ohio, and Section 321.08, Columbus City i Codes, which require collateral for City funds. Considering ir the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance of
$100,000.00, all banks exceed the minimum collateral re-.Jiquirement.
SCHEDULE V shows comparative earnings from Treasury In->9 vestment for the years 1971 through 1982.
I wish to acknowledge the assistance and cooperation : accorded to myself by Mr. Hugh J. Dorrian, City Auditor
and Mr. Harmon Beyer, Finance Director along with their
staffs, together with the personnel of the banks and financial institutions involved in making these earnings possible. I would also like to acknowledge the staff of the Treasurer's Office for their competent and diligent help in continuing the improvement of the treasury investment earnings. SCHEDULE VI shows each investment transaction and the earnings thereon. During 1982 the Treasury Investment Board (City Treasurer, Chairman) continued the policy adopted in 1966 of investing every available dollar in approved investments. Such investments are approved by Section 325.01 of the Columbus City Codes. (These funds were invested for periods varying from 24 hours, weekends and up to one year.) SCHEDULE VII shows historical data regarding collections for parking meters. SCHEDULE VHI The Hare Charity Fund is administered by the City Clerk at the direction of City Council. The City Treasurer acts solely as custodian of the investments owned by the Fund. Such investments are shown in Schedule VIII of this report. SCHEDULE LX The Columbus Police Department maintains a pension fund known as the 'Police Relief Fund'. This Fund is strictly private moneys of the members and is administered by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. Again, the City Treasurer acts solely as the custodian of certain assets of the fund. The cash position as held by the custodian of the fund is set forth in Schedule I. The portion of investments owned by the Police Relief Fund and held by the custodian are shown in Schedule IX. SCHEDULE X The City Treasurer is the custodian of certain collateral deposited by taxi cab companies in lieu of insurance as provided by Sections 587.06 through 587.09, Columbus, Ohio City Codes. Schedule X shows the companies and the related collateral. Schedule X also shows collateral deposited by others in accordance with contracts negotiated by various departments and/or divisions of the City.

DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE ANNUAL REPORT—1982
INTRODUCTION The Depar tment of Finance plays a major role in the plan
ning and control of the City's finances. It also provides coordination for major intergovernmental service divisions. The Department is organized into three major functional areas: Fiscal Management, Administrat ive Services and Purchasing. The first two areas are headed by a Deputy Finance Director, the third by the Purchas ing Adminis t ra tor .
The Fiscal Management area consists of the Budget , Debt Management, Office Services and Employee Relations sections. The Columbus Occupational Safety and Health Administration also reports to the Deputy Finance D i r e c t o r -Fiscal Management.
The Administrat ive Services Deputy Director is responsible for the operations of the Municipal Garage, Building Services and, by virtue of the City Finance Director 's role as Chairman of the Information Services Commission, the Division of Data Processing. The Management Training Section of the Depar tment of F inance and the Office of Contract Compliance also fall within this area of responsibili ty.
The Purchasing Adminis t ra tor reports directly to the Finance Director.
I. BUDGET AND FISCAL MANAGEMENT A. OPERATING B U D G E T
In 1982, the Finance Depar tmen t cont inued to use and refine the weighted criteria operat ing budget system that was introduced in 1981. The 1983 Operating Budget was developed through a process in which City divisions first prepared an "Equivalent Budget" showing what services would be provided at a fixed level of personnel and dollar resources. Divisions then prepared prioritized a series of "expansion" and " reduct ion" proposals identifying the services to be added or reduced at higher or lower funding levels. The Mayor's Office and the Finance Depar tment reviewed these budget proposals and held hearings and discussions with depa r tmen t and division heads before establishing priorities for the recommended budget .
One key feature of the 1983 budget process was that it called for financial and personnel information to be presented at a m u c h finer level of organizational detail than before.

future beneficiaries share in project costs as their tax dollars cont r ibute to servicing the debt.
B. FINANCE ROLE The depa r tmen t manages the City's debt program
by coordinat ing the issuance of authorized notes a n d b o n d s . Ci ty m a n a g e m e n t m u s t r ea sonab ly assure that it will not incur debt in excess of the ability to repay.
Notes, which originally require only interest payments , are generally issued to provide financing for projects unt i l they are completed and it is determined that adequa te funds are available to make principal as well as interest payments . At that t ime, t h e n o t e s are gene ra l ly c o n v e r t e d to long- term b o n d e d d e b t . B o t h n e w and r e n e w a l no te s are issued dur ing the year. If the amoun t of notes to be issued or renewed is significant, the City holds a national sale to at tract many bidders and, hopefully, a favorable interest rate. Small note offerings are ususally sold locally.
C. DEBT ACTIVITY 1. Bond and Note Sales
Two nat ional and eleven local note sales were held dur ing 1982. Both of the national sales were competi t ively bid. In teres t rates obtained in the national sales ranged from 8.57c to 8.75%.
New debt issued dur ing 1982 included the following:
Division/Purpose Security Amount Sewerage Sys tem Unl imi ted Tax Notes $ 5,250,000 Fire Station and

TOTAL NEW D E B T $40,185,606
Inc luded in new deb t issued dur ing the year was an addi t ional $16.3 million for the Refuse/ Coal Fired Power Plant , br inging the City's total obligation th rough year-end for the Power Plant to $160.7 million. T h e final $350,000 of outstanding notes for the Por t Co lumbus Airport renovation and expans ion project were converted to bonded debt . The City's total obligation for this project is $65.2 million.
The City had two bond sales in 1982. A total of $82.4 mi l l ion of v a r i o u s p u r p o s e no te s were b o n d e d . In te res t ra tes on b o n d s ranged from 12% to 12.375%.
Our deb t m a n a g e m e n t mas ter p rogram provides for the per iodic reduct ion of short-term debt. The Depa r tmen t works diligently to minimize the possibility of eve. requir ing property taxes to service the ou ts tand ing debt . All of the City 's d e b t is b a c k e d by t h e p romise to levy proper ty taxes to repay the loans if exist ing income tax or o ther funds are insufficient. Since short- term debt requi res frequent note renewal sales there is a greater chance that the City might be forced to accept a high interest rate if market condi t ions were unfavorable at the t ime of sale. T h e City 's shor t - te rm deb t was reduced from $196 million to $152 million in 1982. Outs tanding bonds totaled $543 million at year-end.
Commercial Paper Program The City cont inued to use its Commercial Pa
per Program to reduce short term note interest cost . In 1982, o u t s t a n d i n g commerc ia l paper offerings ranged from $38.3 million to $75 million. This program is a better money market ins t rumen t for meet ing short-term financing requ i remen t s than tradit ional bond anticipation no tes and offers four significant advantages : substantial interest cost savings, greater flexibility, more immed ia t e and cont inued access to funds, and increased market penetration.
Lower interest rates are generally charged by an investor of our commerc ia l paper for two reasons. First, the investor is guaranteed that his loan will be repaid, if not by the City, then by a g roup of b a n k s tha t have " i n s u r e d " the City a g a i n s t de fau l t ; a n d s e c o n d , t h e i n v e s t o r ' s money is commit ted for a relatively short t ime period. Commercial paper maturi t ies average about one mon th as compared to one year for traditional bond anticipation notes. During the year ended J u n e 2, 1982, the commercial paper program saved the City an est imated $700,000 in debt service cost over and above $143,000 in start-up costs. Ratings
Each year the City applies to the national rating agencies for an appraisal of its capacity to handle deb t already issued and to be issued. The City's ratings for 1982 were as follows:
Agency Moodys Investor Service: . Standard & Poors Corp: . .
RATINGS
Bonds Notes Al MIG 1 AA AA
Commeriai Paper
Pr ime 1 A - 1 +
T h e bond ra t ings are the second and third highest offered by the agencies. The note and commercial paper ratings are the highest offered by the agencies. Moody's reduced its bond rating from Aa in 1982 to reflect three concerns: the operating losses of normally self-supporting enterprises of the City, the large amount of outs tanding short-term debt, and the pressure on the City's General Fund caused by national economic condit ions.
Since the downgrade by Moodys, the City has increased its income tax by one-fourth and instituted a three-year program to divest the General Fund of inves tment income earned on funds borrowed to finance capital programs within self-suppor t ing enterpr ises . In addition, intentions are to reduce outs tanding short-term debt during 1983 by approximately one-third. Such measures are evidence of the City's effort to regain its Aa status.
III. EMPLOYEE RELATIONS A. LABOR RELATIONS
In 1982, the Administrat ion entered into negotiations with all unions. The American Federat ion of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) and Ohio Nursing Association (ONA) agreed to a 10 month extension to Ju ly 31, 1983 on economic matters. The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) did not reach a similar proposed agreement with the Administration. Following a j ob action early in 1983, F O P and IAFF settled with City Council on a two year agreement with an increase in wages of 5% in both years. Many working condit ion issues were negotiated and resolved with all unions.
B. SALARY ORDINANCE ADMINISTRATION Dur ing 1982, salary range requests for exist ing
and new classifications were received and evaluated. Throughout the year we responded to various questions concerning the proper adminis trat ion of the salary ordinances.
C. INSURANCE B E N E F I T S The Depa r tmen t answers employees ' quest ions
about insurances and assists employees with insurance problems. Employee benefit sessions are conducted to inform City employees about their benefit programs.
78 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
In 1982, the City implemented self-insurance programs in the health, dental, vision and life insurance benefits. This allowed the City to pay on an actual claims basis plus administrative fees.
Analysis was completed to adopt an "Administrative Services Only" program for all City employees health benefits. Under this arrangement, the carriers administered the claims for the City and no stop loss coverage is provided. The City will fund for expected paid claims and administrative costs. The actual claims and funding levels will be monitored monthly. These funding changes will occur in January, 1983. ,
Various cost containment approaches tor the City's health benefit packages were investigated. It is anticipated that several of the cost containment changes will be made in 1983.
D COLUMBUS OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION (COSHA)
During the year, the Division reviewed and decided upon the validity of 1,237 workers' compensation claims of City employees. There were 807 injury leave requests reviewed and processed.
A new program was imp lemen ted which arranged medical examinations for terminated employees who are receiving workers' compensation benefits at the time of termination. This program should minimize the future benefit costs charged to the City. The cross-checking of worker' compensation claims with employee health insurance claims which began in 1982 should eliminate duplicate filings.
A final report of the Workers' Compensation Review Committee was submitted to the Director of Finance. The report made several recommendations regarding the processing of workers' compensation claims.
Final stages of development occurred for an online computer inquiry of work related injuries, their costs, and the hours of lost productivity.
IV SPECIAL PROJECTS A. CAPITOL SOUTH
The City and the Capitol South Urban Redevelopment Corporation (CURC), a private redevelopment corporation, are jointly developing the three square block area immediately south of the State Capitol.
Ground breaking for a luxury hotel and office space at Third and State Streets took place in January 1982, representing a significant step forward in the project development. The hotel will contain more than 400 rooms while the office complex will supply 600,000 square feet of space. The entire project will cost approximately $90 million. This project is scheduled for completion in November 1983.
The City has received $19,925,000 in Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) funds for use in the Capitol South project, including a $2 million grant for the Ohio Theatre. Official ground breaking for the Theatre expansion occurred in February 1982, bringing together public and private resources for cultural progress in Columbus. The $9.7 million expansion costs will include the UDAG funding and a $2 million Economic Development Administration (EDA) grant, with the remainder coming from private sources.
B. MOUNT VERNON SOUTH The City maintains an administrative contract
with Neighborhood Development Corporation (NDC) to support redevelopment in the Mount Vernon project area. A grocery supermarket as a retail anchor for Mt. Vernon Plaza is under construction. The primary funding source for the project is under construction. The primary funding for the project is an EDA grant.
V. MANAGEMENT SERVICES During 1982, the Management Services Section of the
Department of Finance was responsible for the following achievements: A. COMPANY OFFICER TRAINING PROGRAM
At the request of Fire Chief Raymond Fadley the Management Services Section designed and conducted a supervisory skills training program for the 140 captains and lieutenants in the Division of Fire
Beginning in June, Management Services personnel met with groups of firefighters, company offi
cers, battalion chiefs, and assistant chiefs to define the role of the company officer and to identify the unique set of problems that fire officers must handle.
Having analyzed this information, Management Services designed a comprehensive, 40-hour training program that included the following topics: 1. the basics of supervision and leadership, 2. communication skills, 3. conflict management, 4. employee motivation 5. training the trainer 6. managing the unsatisfactory performer.
Management Services conducted the first Company Officer Training Program for 20 Fire Lieutenants in October. An additional 7 groups of officers will be trained.
In addition, Management Services has begun to analyze and address the training needs of upper-level Fire Division management. Battalion chiefs and assistant chiefs were given a summary of the entire training program, emphasizing their critical role in supporting the company officers' attempts to improve their supervisory styles. CITY-WIDE SUGGESTION SYSTEM
During 1982, the Suggestion System Design Team completed a three-year effort of designing a suggestion system that will encourage City employees to offer ideas that will improve productivity and reduce the cost of providing service to the citizens of Columbus.
At the end of 1982, the Design Team was preparing to implement the Suggestion System by developing a training program to orient City employees to the details of the new system. Given that our suggestion system proved its cost effectiveness when it was implemented on a trial basis, and that significant savings have been realized by municipal systems throughout the county, we hope to implement the Suggestion System in Columbus sometime in 1983. CITY-WIDE PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
With the help of a grant from the Intergovernmental Personnel Administration (IPA), Management Services personnel led a labor-management effort to design and implement a city-wide performance appraisal system.
After three years of research and design work, the performance appraisal system was completed in January, 1982, and a trial implementation program was initiated in the Division of Recreation and Traffic Engineering. Management Services conducted a 32-hour training program for the supervisors in these two divisions, monitored the first 3-month appraisal periods, and provided refresher training for those supervisors who requested it.
At the end of the year, Management Services was preparing to expand the performance appraisal system to other City agencies if and when funds were made available. PROBLEM-SOLVING: DIVISION OF HEALTH
Throughout 1982 Management Services led two group problem-solving efforts in an attempt to improve the effectiveness of the clerical staff and the supervisory staff of the Division of Environmental Health.
The clerical group has designed a new system to log the environmental complaints received from citizens. This system should streamline the current complaint tracking system while preventing complaints from being lost or delayed.
The Environmental Health Management problem-solving group completed the design and implementation of a cross-training program for sanitarians. In addition, Management Services led this group through the development of a "management responsibility guide" which outlines the responsibilities of each supervisor as well as the specific reporting relationships among Division supervisors. CITY EMPLOYEES' LITERACY PROGRAM
In response to a request from the Building Services Division, Management Services is coordinating a pilot program to help City employees who need to improve their reading skills. With the help of the Columbus Literacy Council and the Columbus Volunteer Corporation, approximately 25 volunteer tutors will be trained to respond to re-
1 I

quests for help from employees of Building Services and the Municipal Garage. If the pilot program is successful, Management Services plans to encourage t h e vo lun t ee r efforts and e x p a n d the literacy program to other City employees who need help with their reading skills.
F. G R O U P FACILITATION TRAINING: DIVISION OF FIRE
Working with a group of seven firefighters from different ranks , M a n a g e m e n t Services is helping the Chief ach ieve t h e goal of es tab l i sh ing small problem-solving groups th roughout the Division of Fire.
Throughout 1982, the section analyzed the problem of the growing use of sick leave in the Fire Division. A comprehens ive set of solut ions were developed to address this issue.
G. GARAGE-SANITATION COMMITTEE Management Services cont inued to provide lead
ership and g roup facilitation for meet ings between the managers of the Division of Sani tat ion and the Municipal Garage. These managers meet twice each quar ter to discuss and resolve issues concerning the Sanitat ion vehicle fleet. Dur ing 1982, the Garage-Sanitat ion commi t t ee worked on problems such as: 1. r educ ing the backlog of high-priori ty vehicles
wait ing to be repaired; 2. i m p r o v i n g w o r k i n g c o n d i t i o n s a t t h e s u b
stations, 3. providing improved securi ty at the stat ions.
Managemen t Services conduc ts these meet ings and prov ides necessa ry follow-up to insure that progress is m a d e toward resolving each issue.

VI. OFFICE OF CONTRACT COMPLIANCE A. INTRODUCTION
T h e Office of Con t rac t Compl iance was established for the purpose of adminis te r ing the provisions of Article I, Title 39, commonly referred to as the Contract Compl iance Code. The major responsibilities of this office are to increase the participation of minori ty and female bus inesses in City of Col u m b u s contrac ts and to enhance the inclusion of minori t ies and females into non-tradi t ional jobs in the workforce of those companies contract ing with the City. In addi t ion, it is the responsibil i ty of the office to assure tha t all City agencies are complying with all state and federal contract compl iance related requ i rements . The Contract Compl iance staff consists of an adminis t ra tor , an officer, an investigator, and a clerical suppor t person.
B. I M P L E M E N T A T I O N O F P R O G R A M S NUMERICAL G O A L S
The Contract Compl iance Code establ ished goals which serve as numer ica l b e n c h m a r k s of the City's success in achieving its objective of including all segments of the c o m m u n i t y in the areas economy. These goals can be generally g rouped into the following areas: 1. The percentage of minority and female persons em
ployed by those companies contracting with the City and the overall employment practices of such companies.
To ensure compl iance with the Code's employm e n t goals, compan ies are required to submi t information regard ing their emp loymen t practices and e m p l o y m e n t profile. Companies deemed to be in compl iance wi th the goals and/or the overall intent and spirit of the code are issued a cont r a c t c o m p l i a n c e ce r t i f i ca t ion n u m b e r . Only companies holding such a n u m b e r may be issued a City contract . Dur ing 1982, a total of 1,788 companies were issued certification number s .
Due to the na ture of the industry , construct ion cont rac tors work ing on City projects must , in addit ion to the initial review, submi t monthly re-
79
ports del ineat ing their workforce. In 1982, the Office of Contract Compliance reviewed monthly contractors for 114 projects. Also included in the month ly review procedure were 68 on-site visits to construction projects.
2. In City construction contracts the goal for the participation of minority business enterprises (MBE) is 10% and 2% for female business enterprises (FBE).
In 1982, this office reviewed 114 construction projects valued at $46,112,108.78. A total of 52 minority and female business enterprises participated in these projects. The MBE participation was 9.7% ($4,492,413.85), while the FBE was 1.9% ($894,902.00).
In add i t i on , t h e C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t H o m e R e h a b i l i t a t i o n P r o g r a m e x p e n d e d $5,678,532.00 of which minori ty companies received $1,070,915.00 (18.86%).
To assure that only truly minority and female companies, as defined by the Code, are designated as such, the Office of Contract Compliance made 142 on-site visits to minority and female designated companies .
3. City agencies are to utilize minority business enterprises for 10% and female business enterprises for 2% of the total dollars expended on contracts other than construction.
In J a n u a r y of 1982, a p r o c e d u r e w a s implemented which allowed this office to monitor City agencies ' professional services contracting.
In 1982, there were 83 professional service contracts reported at a value of $10,828,653.00. The MBE par t ic ipat ion was 6.8% ($733,617.00) and FBE participation was 5.3% ($574,108.00).
Vendor contracts consti tute another segment of agency contract ing. For the purpose of implement ing the Contract Compliance Code, vendor contracts have been defined as those purchases m a d e by t h e Division of P u r c h a s i n g for material, supplies, and equipment . Unless special c i r c u m s t a n c e s prevai l , t he City Code requires that vendor contracts be awarded to the lowest and best bidder. Therefore, it was agreed tha t given t h e staffing l imita t ion of Contract Compliance, the Division of Purchas ing would assume the responsibili ty of notifying appropriate minori ty and female businesses of potential bidding opportunit ies . As of this writing, figures are not available regarding the participation of MBE's and FBE's . The participation of minority and female businesses in vendor contract ing will be a priority item for 1983.
C. PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT Major strides were made by the City in obtaining
its goal of including all segments of the citizenry in its economic growth . It has been suggested that minor i ty and female bus inesses might be bet ter served if the City were to consolidate it's Office of Minority Business Development and the Office of Contract Compliance. Since J u n e 1982, a substantial n u m b e r of workhours have been devoted to evaluating this suggestion, and to whether any such consolidation should be under the aegis of the Depar tment of Finance or the Depar tment of Development.
Being aware that current information is essential if a program is going to properly fulfill its mission, this office held a conference for administrators of c o n t r a c t c o m p l i a n c e p r o g r a m s t h r o u g h o u t t h e State of Ohio. The purpose of the conference was to open the lines of communica t ion with other cities. T h e Ohio A s s o c i a t i o n of C o n t r a c t C o m p l i a n c e Adminis t ra tors has been incorporated as a result of this conference.

DATA PROCESSING DIVISION INTRODUCTION 1. The Data P rocess ing Division was es tabl ished under
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982 81
Chapter 153 of the Columbus City Code. The Information Services Commission (established under the same Chapter) serves as the Division's governing body. a. The Chairman of the Information Services Com
mission is the Division's appointing authority. The Director of Finance serves as Commission Chairman.
b. The Commission has responsibility to: 1) Review areas of City Government that would
benefit from implementing data processing systems.
2) Review and make recommendations to Council on purchases or rental of data processing equipment and/or services.
2. The Data Processing Division is composed of four functional areas: Administration, Systems and Programming, Computer Operations and Technical Services. a. Administration has responsibility for general
management of the Data Processing Division. Responsibilities include fiscal management, personnel management, and planning.
b. Systems and Programming consists of Analyst/ Programmers who maintain and enhance existing user application systems. They also design and develop new application systems.
c. Computer Operations runs a seven day, 24 hour computer center. Services include: processing time, data storage, data quality control, source document microfilming, microfiche, and support of various peripheral hardware systems or equipment.

C. SYSTEMS AND PROGRAMMING —1982 ACCOMPLISHMENTS 1. Systems and Programming assisted Computer Op
erations in the development of new Operations Documentation standards. Operations Documentation defines step-by-step operation procedures for an application system.
2. Staff training was increased during 1982. Primary focus fell into two categories: a. A Data Base Management (DMS II) course was
conducted by in-house personnel. The course was taken by all programming staff using DMS II. The course was designed to improve knowledge in efficiency usage, problem solving, and program design techniques.
b. In 1982, the City Data Center contracted with Del-tak, Inc. to provide audio-visual self-training courses to be used by our programming staff. During 1982, Systems and Programming completed "Effective Manager" and "Project Management" courses.
3. The following accomplishments identify enhance
ments, new developments or highlights of user applications systems: a. Payroll System—(Auditor)
1) By July of 1982, all City employees were successfully converted to the new Payroll/Personnel System, thus completely eliminating the old Payroll System.
2) Documentation defining the processing procedures was completed and turned over to Operations.
3) Unemployment Compensation subsystem was developed and turned over to the Finance Department for testing.
b. FAMIS—Financial Accounting Management Information System—(Auditor) 1) Upgraded FAMIS to accept an automatic inter
face from Payroll/Personnel, and the Water and Sewer Billing System. The interface eliminated the manual coding and entering of this data via online terminals.
2) Developed Online Data Entry which replaced the outdated Burroughs (L-8000) key tape system. The Auditor's office now enters data directly from online terminals.
3) Assisted the Auditor's office with an external audit by independent certified public accountants
c. Inventory System (Auditor) 1) The inventory system was converted from the
old Department/Division numbering system to the new structure defined in the Financial Accounting System (FAMIS). This upgrade provides compatibility between FAMIS and Inventory.
d. City Income Tax System (Division of Income Tax) 1) Developed procedures and programs to purge
historical data. Purging of this data will occur during the first quarter of 1983.
2) The Tax System was upgraded to provide capability for additional tax returns and Wl document types. This expanded capability simplifies the input process for tax returns and Wl documents. A major upgrade of the Tax Online Maintenance program was accomplished. Data entry screens were redesigned providing improved methods of user input. Additional edit checks were added to reduce user corrections.
Budget Preparation System (Finance) 1) Developed an Online Data Entry Scheduler
allowing the Finance Department to enter report request and control information directly from online terminals.
Health (Department of Health) 1) The Data Center assisted in the implementa
tion of a new Sanitation Program Information Formulator (SPIF) System. SPIF is designed to provide more timely and meaningful data for the program manager. The sanitarian will find it useful in planning and executing daily inspectional activities.
2) Supported the Health Department in initial loading of the Master Files
Applicant Tracking (Civil Service) 1) Implemented the new Applicant Tracking Sys
tem in April, 1982. The new system allows Civil Service to record and track sufficient work force information to: a) Selectively hire qualified applicants, b) Track an employee's position movements, c) Provide support information and reports to
external regulatory and other organizations. Documentation defining the processing was completed and turned over to Operations,
h. Water/Sewer 1) Implemented FAMIS (Financial Accounting
Management Information System) interface between the Water and Sewers Divisions' revenue processing and the Auditor's Office. This eliminated the manual process of entering the data on-line and facilitated quicker posting of cash. This reduced lag time in posting from one month at the end of 1981 to two days at the end of 1982.
2) Implemented an on-line billing simulation feature which allows Water & Sewer to test the effect of new rate structures. It also improves response to consumer questions.
3)
2)
82 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982
3) Implemented a rebill process allowing reproduction of bills upon request, rather than having them reproduced manually.
4) Improved the sewer certification process which includes prior notification of pending certifications to property owners. This improvement replaced much of the manual process required by user personnel.
5) Implemented a rate modification procedure which allows the users to modify Water and Sewer rates without the intervention of the Data Center.
i. Police System (Division of Police) 1) The new Offense Reporting and Crime Analy
sis System was put into production in July. The 1st half of 1982 was devoted to implementing the system and the last half of 1982 was spent on refinements. The system allows the Police Department to enter Offense related data faster and more accurately, and allows them to quickly obtain crime statistics. Statistics are transmitted to the FBI via Uniform Crime Reports.
j . Courts (Municipal and Common Pleas) 1) Reorganized the data base of the Justice In
formation system (JIS). 2) Implemented a Civil Indexing System for
Common Pleas Court. This replaces a cumbersome manual process and replaces a bulky filing system with microfiche.
k. Fire (Division of Fire) 1) Developed the Columbus Fire Incident Report
ing System (CFIRS). Among other accomplishments were the definition and compilation of the data base, the writing and testing of the data collect on lines, the incorporation of Ohio Fire Incident and National Fire Incident edit procedures, and the testing and training of Fire personnel.
COMPUTER OPERATION—1982 ACCOMPLISHMENTS 1. Three Burroughs' 3955 processors were successfully
installed and operational during 1982. a) This hardware increases the memory resource
from three megabytes of memory to a maximum of 15 megabytes.
b) Significant savings will result from reduced requirements of electricity and air-conditioning.
c) There will be an approximate 75% reduction in floor space requirement.
2. A Digital VAX processor and related equipment were delivered for the new Vehicle Management Information System for the Municipal Garage. The equipment will be housed in the Data Center and operated by Computer Operations staff, while data entry and various report generation will be operated from user worksites.
3. Significant organizational changes occurred in Computer Operations: a) The Data Entry section was eliminated as the ter
minal/data communications network expanded. Users use this network for input and control of their own data. From 1981 to 1982 the budgeted staff level was reduced from 24 to 19.
b) Operations' classifications were upgraded and revised to reflect assignment of computer room control and to offer well-defined career paths.
c) A remote temperature sensing system and a water detection system were installed. These systems protect the City's investment of over $3 million in data processing equipment.
TECHNICAL S E R V I C E S - 1 9 8 2 ACCOMPLISHMENTS 1. Designed, developed and installed the following soft
ware systems: a. Compile Scheduling and Reporting System, b. Print Management and Paper Stock Inventory
System, c. Terminal Programmable Function Key Library
System (for SR100 CRT's), d. Remote Printing and Programming System, e. Data Communications Inventory and Property
System, f. Data Communications Maintenance Report Sys
tem. 2. All terminals (CRTs and printers) were installed for
the Offense Reporting/Crime Analysis System in the Division of Police.
3. An in-house maintenance program was implemented on an experimental basis. The Technical Services' staff maintained 141 terminals. All in-house costs were offset by the eliminating the cost of vendor maintenance in the first year. During 1982, the Division expects to save approximately $40,000.
4. Training was provided to the following personnel: a. All Computer Operators were trained in the opera
tions of the new Burroughs 3955 processors. b. Common Pleas and Municipal Court Security
Managers were trained in the use of their data security systems. This training has eliminated confusion among system users and has added greater system efficiency. User satisfaction has increased which should improve efficiency.

COLUMBUS COUNTYWIDE DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION Columbus Countywide Development Corporation is a
non-profit corporation, incorporated in the fall of 1981. CCDC has 35 corporate members, composed of executive officers of banks, savings and loans, investment companies, development related businesses and community organizations. Its operations are managed by a nine-member Board of Trustees, five (5) officers and a five (5) person staff.
CCDC was created to help small businesses obtain financing needed for job-creating business expansions. Its primary vehicle is the 503 Loan Program. CCDC is certified to issue debentures, guaranteed by the Small Business Administration, and sold through the Federal Finance Bank Th
T?, p r o , S ? ^ s a r e then lent to expanding small businesses. h e u L o a n Program can finance 40 percent of
land, building and equipment costs for a small business's expansion Terms are 15, 20 or 25 years, with an interest rate fixed at %% above long-term U.S. treasury bond rates Fifty percent of the remaining costs must come from non-federal sources, which includes conventional financing and/or financing through city or state programs. The remaining portion must be provided by the company in the form of an equity injection.
In February of 1982, CCDC was licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration, to operate the Small Business
Administration (SBA) 503 Loan Program, a new fixed asset loan program for small businesses. CCDC underwrites and processes these loans for business expansions. It also packages loans through a variety of other public programs, at the state, local and federal levels.
Since February, 1982, CCDC has assisted in the financing for projects costing $14,163.00 in 34 company expansions, through the SBA 503 Loan Program. These projects are expected to result in the creation of 793 permanent jobs during the next one (1) to three (3) years, while retaining 1,764 existing jobs.
These companies are wide-ranging in size and type, including machine shops, other manufacturers, restaurants, an accounting firm, a vocational school, distribution facilities and a variety of other businesses. Several of these loans have been in Columbus' targeted revitalization areas.
Also this year, CCDC expanded its area of operations to cover Franklin County, as well as the City with execution of a SBA 503 Services Contract with Franklin County. CCDC plans to continue its aggressive efforts in business financing during 1983. BUILDING REGULATION DIVISION
This Division is responsible for administering the Ohio Basic Building Code and the Columbus Building Code as assigned by Chapter 4102 of the Columbus City Codes. Both building codes provide minimum standards for the construction, arrangement and alteration of all buildings or their parts within the City of Columbus. These responsibilities are principally carried out through two (2) operating programs entitled Plan Examination and Building Inspection.
The Division's goal is to facilitate construction that preserves the health, safety, and general well-being of the City.
The year 1982 saw significant developments in the Division of Building Regulation in an effort to improve the delivery of building safety services to the public. Many of the improvements and programs begun in 1982 are expected to have an impact in 1983. The most noteworthy of these are the transfer of Home Improvement Licenses to the Division of Building Regulation from the Department of Safety, and also the consolidation of street and sidewalk occupancy permits so the public only has to come to one office to obtain this permit. In compliance with the revised OBBC, Building Permits for signs are now being issued by the Division of Building Regulation along with our new fireplace and woodburning stove permits. The review of plans for fire suppression and detection systems has also been instituted per the revised State Code.
1982 has been a year of transition for the Division of Building Regulation, which is the State of Ohio's Certified Building Department for the City of Columbus. It has been a year of declining permits for the first nine (9) months, but the strongest November and December of the last three (3) years. It has been a year of declining number of personnel due to cutbacks through attrition, but an attitude of dedication and determination to persevere into a bustling 1983. In 1982, the Division lost four (4) inspectors and one (1) plan examiner. This totaled to approximately 175 years of experience, and was a great loss to our Division. BUILDING INSPECTION PROGRAM
The front line of any building department is its inspection staff which must make field inspections to assure strict compliance with the City's codes and minimum standards. An effective enforcement of a City's building safety codes and standards cannot take place unless the City has a capable and dedicated inspection force willing to go beyond the "call of duty", to provide the public with safety assurances.
Columbus is fortunate to have that kind of inspection, capable, dedicated and uncompromising, that does a noteworthy job in securing adherence to the City's safety codes for buildings. Considering the number of buildings in the city (over 350,000) and the other mandatory inspections, the Division has been able to maintain a high level of performance in spite of the reduction in staff. PLAN EXAMINATION PROGRAM
One of the most vital needs of the City is to grow and renew itself. The Division's plan examination role is vital to this process. Under the City and State Building Codes, all plans for new buildings, alterations, etc., are reviewed for compliance, after which a permit is issued. Delay in the review process can have an adverse impact on both the building industry and the general public that benefits from construction. Being acutely aware of this and endeavoring constantly to improve the delivery of this service, the Division instituted several internal operations policies to provide the Plan Examiners uninterrupted periods of time during which they can examine plans.

spend t ime answer ing rou t ine ques t ions , and at p resen t approximately one third of their t ime is spent with this service and away from plan examinat ion. To facilitate the construction process, the Division offers an extensive preliminary review program encompass ing both code and plan review for compliance with City Codes. Plan Examiners make mandatory inspect ions for places of assembly as well as others to comply wi th S ta te and City l icensing requirements. They also conduct inspect ions for buildings undergoing a change of use. DIVISION SUPPORT SERVICES
The Division of Bui lding Regulat ion could not function without its suppor t personnel . Their jobs require a variety of skills including cashiering, issuing permits , typing, keeping permanent records of permits issued, orders and fire run responses . The Division has had an increase of approximately 30% in the n u m b e r of dance hall, arcade, mechanical amusement devices, billiard parlor and massage parlor plan review. Six (6) new t e l ephone answer ing machines have been installed to give staff the ability and flexibility of serving the public 24 hours a day.
The Division provides staff suppor t to six (6), seven (7) member Boards of Examine r s as well as the Building Commiss ion . T h e B u i l d i n g C o m m i s s i o n ' s work load has increased 25% in 1982 with a record n u m b e r of 118 appeals being p r e s e n t e d to e i the r t h e Commiss ion or the Sta te Board of Building Appeals .
In 1976, t h e D iv i s ion of B u i l d i n g R e g u l a t i o n b e g a n document ing whe the r or no t an inspect ion was a revenue producing inspection or a publ ic service inspection.

The Communi ty Development Division is responsible for preparing and managing implementa t ion of renewal and communi ty development programs and projects within the City of Columbus. As assigned in Chapter 3503 of the Col u m b u s City Codes, th is inc ludes admin is t ra t ion of the Urban Renewal /Communi ty Deve lopment Code and the Federal Housing and Communi ty Development Act of 1974, as amended. These responsibili t ies are principally carried out t h rough the following opera t ing p rograms : Federa l Communi ty Development Block Grant Management , Projects Management , Neighborhood Commercia l Revitaliza-tion, Residential Rehabilitation, Urban Homesteading, Relocation, and Self-Help.
The Division's goal is to facilitate housing, neighborhood and economic deve lopment that enhances the economic and physical well-being of Columbus .
DIVISION SUPPORT SERVICES During 1982, the Communi ty Development Division com
pleted the Seventh-Year Communi ty Development Block Grant Program (CDBG) and initiated Eighth-Year activities with the preparat ion of the FY 1982 CDBG application for $8,259,000. Other accompl ishments include the administration of contracts with the Columbus Urban League for fair housing services; Co lumbus Neighborhood Housing Services, Co lumbus Office of Contract Compl iance and Columbus Depar tment of Energy and Telecommunicat ion for imp lemen ta t i on of the Low-Cost /No-Cost Winter izat ion Program. In addition, program management staff successfully coordinated several H U D monitor ing visits.
In 1982, t h e D i v i s i o n of C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t assumed responsibili ty for Labor S tandards Enforcement on all CDBG-funded construct ion projects. This responsibility had previously been carried out by the City's Prevailing Wage Coordinator.
Urban Renewal accompl i shments included the construction of eight (8) uni ts of new housing by Charleston, Incorporated in the Dennison Avenue Conservation Area and complet ions of the Publ ic Employee Ret i rement System Expans ion Project , and the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission Building in the Market-Mohawk Area. RELOCATION AND REAL ESTATE MANAGMENT PROGRAM
During 1982, the Division of Communi ty Development merged the Relocation Assis tance and Area Coordinator Sections to form a new Relocation and Real Estate Management Program to coordinate all property acquisition, property management and relocation activities of the Division.
Relocation activities included assistance to more than 450
86 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
families, individuals and business concerns and start-up preparations for the 1-670 Extension Project, including completion of the Pre-Acquisition Survey.
Various capital improvements were completed during 1982 including the 17th/Cleveland Avenue Intersection Improvement Project, Mt. Vernon Plaza Graphics, Clintonville Portal Park, Italian Village Park, the Open Door Clinic and St. Vincent's Children's Center Rehabilitation Projects, Reeb-Hosack Street Reconstruction: Phase I, Lilley Avenue Park, McKinley Avenue Park Improvements and Unity Street Resurfacing.
Projects which were initiated during 1982 include St Stephen's Family Service Center, South Linden Park, street tree plantings for the north of Broad and Olde Towne East Target Areas and the Hungarian Village, Unity and North High Street-Arcadia to Weber, and Handicapped Barrier Removal Projects at City Hall and the Columbus Health Department. NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL REVTTALIZATION PROGRAM
During 1982, the Neighborhood Commercial Revitaliza-tion Program generated nearly $1.5 million in construction activity through the Commercial Improvement Loan Fund, with 17 projects at $644,000, and the NCR Investment Fund, with five (5) projects at $824,000. Additionally, 11 projects were undertaken in the NCR districts without City loan participation, valued at over $4.5 million.
Several capital improvement projects were completed in NCR areas during 1982, including: Cleveland Avenue Sidewalk Improvements and Olde Towne Quarter Street-scape Improvements (Phase II), which provided new curb sidewalks, pedestrian-scale street lighting, street trees and an entrance park on Parsons Avenue from Bryden Road to Oak Street.
In addition to the investment activity in each commercial district, the NCR Program renegotiated the CILP Agreement with Ameritrust to provide for interest income on the City's deposit of funds. A "CD Float" Loan was provided to the Columbus Association for the Performing Arts. Inc. for the renovation of the Ohio Theatre, and staff assisted in the establishment of the Columbus Neighborhood Design Assistance Center. RESIDENTIAL REHABILITATION PROGRAM
During 1982, a computer-assisted rehabilitation specification writing system (RESPEC) was installed for use by Residential Rehabilitation Program staff. Over 300 loans and grants were closed, representing over $5.5 million in CDBG and Section 312 rehabilitation assistance.
New program directions were launched in 1982 with the distribution of a Request of Proposals (RFP) for private lender participation in the Residential Rehabilitation Program and the generation of interest income on City deposits. Additionally, the City was selected to participate in the HUD Rental Rehabilitation Demonstration Program. Construction activity was initiated on 33 units in the Section 8 Substantial Rehabilitation NSA Area. URBAN HOMESTEADING/SELF-HELP PROGRAMS
During 1982, the Urban Homesteading Program awarded 62 properties to families and individuals who agreed to rehabilitate the properties and occupy the structures for four (4) years. The Chores Program provided 807 service visits to perform maintenance on the homes of the elderly, while the Mobile Tool Library completed 3,633 tool loans for private home repairs and the Paint-Up Program offered 1,608 loans of interior and exterior painting equipment. INNOVATIVE GRANT AWARD
In 1982, the Division of Community Development substantially completed its involvement in the Innovative Grant Program, a homeownership and neighborhood revita-lization project in the City's near north side. This project brought together a successful partnership of the City, Battelle Memorial Institute and the neighborhood and was recognized by President Reagan for excellence in the use of Community Development Block Grant funds. Columbus was one of only 11 cities nationwide to receive this prestigious award. PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIVISION
This Division is responsible for comprehensive planning and facilitating the orderly economic and physical development of the City of Columbus. As assigned by Chapter 3107 of the Columbus City Codes, this includes administration of t" e Zoning Code and most of the Planning and Platting Code. These responsibilities are principally carried out through the following operating programs: Development Information, Comprehensive Planning, Area Planning Economic Development, and Land Use Controls.
The Division's goal is to provide objective information to
government and the community as necessary to plan, coordinate, and facilitate orderly growth in Columbus in accordance with development objectives, strategies, and policies. PLANNING INFORMATION PROGRAM
the Development Department's Library and Information Center has continued to acquire, catalogue, and make available to users periodicals, documents, and articles that are used by the Department staff, other City departments and divisions, and the public. The Library now contains approximately 7,000 volumes and is open to the public from 8:00 to 5:00 P.M. Moneay through Friday.
Requests for information are received by telephone, letter and personal contact. During 1982, 2,515 members of the public, excluding city staff, came to the Information Center, and 11,762 telephone calls were recorded. Eighty-one (81) letters providing zoning information were mailed. In 1981 the City License Section of the Department of Public Safety began routing new and renewal applications for licenses to the Information Center for Zoning District review and verification. This has grown into a substantial volume of activity with 553 applications, including State of Ohio Liquor Permit applications, processed in 1982.
Two (2) new services initiated in 1982 are the Local Government Information Network (LOGIN) and the Product Information Network (PIN). LOGIN is a computerized data base which consists of approximately 13,000 units on topics related to local government activity. PIN, published by McGraw-Hill, is a system of reports on products used by governmental units.
Four (4) data indexes covering Variances, Zoning Clearances, Rezonings and Residential Care Facilities are maintained in the Information Center. All of these reports are in street address order and are geo-coded by census tract and block. The monthly variance report consists of 88 pages containing data on over 4,775 variances for the period of 1966 through 1982. The Zoning Clearance and Rezoning Reports start with 1981 activity and are updated and distributed quarterly. The Residential Care Facility Report indexes all known facilities and is printed monthly in both street and Census Tract order.
Staff performed a series of statistical analyses in support of the Columbus Displacement Study completed by consultants in 1982. Five (5) separate cross-tabulations were performed using data supplied by the consultant on tape and an SPSS (Statistical Program for Social Services) command file prepared by staff.
Recent acquisitions from the Ohio Data Users Center consisting of detailed population and housing data on microfiche, nine (9) computer print-out target reports on socioeconomic factors, and the Columbus SMSA Block Statistics on microfiche. The target reports cover income, occupation, education, labor-force, poverty status by age and race, rent burden, home ownership burden, and place of work. The nine (9) target reports and the SMAS Block Statistics have been reprinted and are available at the Information Center.
Significant effort was put forth during the year in building data bases which will be the subject of future analysis and the source of statistical information. Building Permit data for 1980 and 1982 were entered, proofread, corrected, and geo-coded in one (1) month lots. This data base now contains information on over 5,070 Building Permits for 1982 and 5,700 for 1980.
Comprehensive Planning staff entered data for over 8,800 residential deed transfers which occurred in Franklin County in the first eleven month of 1982. This data base is in the process of being geo-coded.
The Division entered into a contract for time-sharing computer services with the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission in 1981. At the start of 1982 service under this contract consisted of one (1) port and terminal with five (5) million (5,000,000) characters of disk storage. Actual average disk storage in December 1981 was 2,793,984 characters. Starting with April 1982, a second port and terminal was added to the system providing a total disk storage of ten million (10,000,000) characters. In November the total average storage reached 11,475,456 characters.
The program for managing mailing lists, which is part of 1 the MORPC computer contract has proven to be a valuable s>'< tool for managing mailing address programs. Two (2) ( address data bases are maintained. One, primarily used for mi mailing agendas and meet ing not ices , averages 790 0<: addresses; the second, which is maintained by Economic o;i Development staff, contains 3,088 addresses used primarily \ for mailing The Exchange newsletter and the Columbus Eco- -c nomic Review.
Early in 1982 the long standing problem of maintaining g'i large quantities of paper files, fifty-five file cabinets in Plan-

ning alone, resulted in initiating a s tudy of micrographics systems. The result of the s tudy was the selection of a step and repeat copy camera which automatically formats original documents on a microfiche master at a rate of up to 3,000 sheets of paper per hour. This equ ipment was placed in service in early 1983. AREA PLANNING PROGRAM
The Area P lanning Sect ion cont inued to work with Col u m b u s n e i g h b o r h o o d s , offering ass i s tance to establ ish neighborhood organizat ions and newly-formed neighborhood commissions and projects. The staff worked closely with the Hilltop Area Commiss ion in developing the Hilltop U.S.A. Residential Design Initiative. The Depar tment of Development successfully applied for grant funds from six (6) different sources, raising $41,000 for this project in 1982. The Design Initiative will assist in the resoration and rehabilitation of residential s t ructures in this neighborhood. A history of the Hilltop and its physical deve lopment will also be prepared.
Staff were extensively involved in the creation of a successful plan for the Nor th Market , inc luding obtaining grant monies for the expans ion of the North Market itself. Area Planning has contr ibuted to the p lanning needs of commercial development in other areas as well, notable through the preparation of Land Use Repor ts to assist the efforts of the De pa r tmen t ' s N e i g h b o r h o o d Commerc i a l Revital izat ion Program.
Other areas in which the area coordinators have participated are the Capitol Square s idewalk design; the Red Cross expansion and residential relocation agreement with Olde Towne East; the Co lumbus Metropol i tan Housing Association (CMHA) hous ing project in Reeb-Hosack; neighborhood studies in the nor thwes t and southwest ; North High Street off-street park ing data in cooperat ion with the Neighborhood Commercial Revitalization staff and the Traffic Engineering Division; and the OSU High Tech Industr ial Park Land Analysis Study.
In recognition of the increasing impor tance of the neighborhood in t h e p lanning and deve lopmen t process, section staff has been actively involved in coordinat ing the activities of exist ing area commiss ions . Assistance has ranged
1 from issuing the Certificates of Appropr ia teness deemed to critical to the main tenance of the character of Victorian and German Villages, to the reorganization of commission records. Area commiss ions are notified of Rezoning, Variance and Demolit ion Permi t appl icat ions that affect their areas. In addition, the section has given assis tance to two (2) other neighborhood groups in organizing their own area commissions for the Northeas t Area and South Linden. These commissions are organized into an advisory body called the Area Commission Chairmen, which has provided a forum for various m e m b e r s of the City adminis t ra t ion, including the Mayor, to discuss city services and plans with neighborhood representat ives. Area p lann ing has also helped communities prepare Rezoning appl icat ions in eight (8) different areas, including the Cleveland A v e n u e Nieghborhood Revitalization area and Frankl in ton.
Land Use Control staff received design review assistance from Area P lann ing staff on abou t 30 deve lopment proposals involving about 680 acres. About 30 review of development plans for the Capitol Squa re area were reviewed, and the section assisted in reviewing and amend ing the City Code on t h e t o w n h o u s e d i s t r i c t a n d C a p i t o l S q u a r e graphics.
Area Planning staff also comple ted five (5) area studies during the year, ranging in scale from the small neighborhood (the NECKO study), to the City's Nor theas t Quadrant , (growth pat terns and potent ial in the I-670/Northeast Corridor). The section mainta ined the Downtown model and updated the status of var ious bui ldings and propert ies . LAND USE CONTROLS PROGRAM
During 1982, 119 a p p l i c a t i o n s for Rezonings were received. There w e r e 111 appl ica t ions processed and scheduled to be heard by the Deve lopment Commiss ion within
> ' the 1982 calendar year. Of these appl icat ions, 72 were passed by City Council with a total acreage of approximate ly 945 acres. The others were wi thdrawn, defeated, converted to Council Variances, or are still in the Rezoning process.
Staff assisted the Rezonings of a significant 196 acre tract across from the J o s e p h i n u m Complex at Route 23 and 1-270 North which es tabl i shed a very major retail , light warehouse, and office node in the nor th par t of the city. The staff spent many hours working with the appl icant to establish a CPD which will insure a very high quali ty deve lopment that is also compat ible with the su r round ing propert ies . Also, the significant Rezon ings of a 140.5 acre t rac t no r th of Hayden Run and West of Dubl in Road will set the develop-
CITY DEPARTMENTS, COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982 87
ment t rends for the nor thwest sector of the City. Again, staff worked closely with the applicant to establish a combination of zonings which will be an asset to the area.
Staff presented 99 Council Variances to the City Council. Of significant importance was Council 's action of reversing the action of the Graphics Commiss ion in regards to a painted graphic along 1-71 and the Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA) in the granting of a special permit for the use of a temporary s tructure in the downtown area. In both of the above cases the applicants c i rcumvented the established process by filing Council Variance.
In 1982, the public filed 211 applications for consideration by the Board of Zoning Adjustment. During 1982, the Board took action on 121 Variance applications, 96 Special Permit applications and two (2) appeals. These figures include reconsideration i tems and carry-over applications from 1981. In addition, 12 applications were withdrawn by applicants. Division staff represented the Depar tment of Development on each case reviewed by the Board. Of special interest, applications for special permits to establish 24 residential care facilities and 47 amusemen t arcades were presented to the Board. Transcripts were provided by the staff for six (6) cases appealed in the Court of Common Pleas.
The Division of P lanning and Economic Development emphasizes problem solving in its work with applicants and the Board of Zoning Adjustment . A recent example involves an a p p l i c a t i o n for a spec ia l p e r m i t to e x p a n d a nonconforming restaurant located at 4542 Celveland Avenue. The Division noted an ongoing policy to discourage retail commercial uses along Cleveland Avenue except at major intersections. However, because there was no curb along Cleveland Avenue and inadequate maneuver ing area, the potential existed for conflicts between automobiles using the perpendicular spaces in advance of the restaurant and autos on Cleveland Avenue. As a result of the applicant 's willingness to work with the Division of Traffic Engineering and Parking to solve the problem, the Division of Planning and Economic Development recommended that the special permit, if granted, be condit ioned on the applicant 's site plan. That site plan indicated the removal of pavement and parking in advance of the restaurant , the provision of curbing, landscaping and one (1) curb cut into Cleveland Avenue . The Special P e r m i t to e x p a n d t h e r e s t au ran t was granted subjected to implementa t ion of the site plan as approved by the Board.
The Planning and Economic Development Division's Involvement with Historic Resources Commission (HRC) reflects the Development Depar tment ' s commi tment to the maintenance of sound preservation principles. During the Commission's first full year of activity, the nomination of buildings, s t ructures, objects and districts to the Columbus Register of Historic Propert ies was its main priority. Of the 15 listings recommended for approval by the Commission to City Council in 1982, 10 were initiated by the HRC and five (5) by the owners. All had signed owner consent with the exception of Central High School.
In addition, the Commission worked to increase its visibility in 1982. A brochure detailing the constructive functions of the Historic Resources Commiss ion, and a public information p rog ram on C o m m i s s i o n activities were prepared. Other projects for the year included formulation of more specific rehabilitation s tandards and investigation of ways to limit the impact of spot demolit ion.
A total of 59 applications for consideration by the City Graphics Commission were porcessed by staff during 1982. Of those, 49 were Variance cases, eight (8) were Special Permits, and two (2) were appeals.
Certificates of Zoning Clearance were issued for 540 site plans, including 93 industrial uses, 151 commercial uses, and 65 apar tment projects, total ing 1,195 dwelling units. There were 904 Graphics Permi ts issued and there were 41 Subdivision Plats reviewed consist ing of 700 acres, including 450 acres for residential uses.
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING PROGRAM The Neighborhood Change Report was published in 1982.
It presents a general theory to explain neighborhood life-cycle changes and a system for monitor ing and evaluating a neighborhood in relation to its changing competi t ive position in the Columbus housing market . One objective in presenting and testing this system is to develop a means of detecting neighborhood change at an early date so that public intervention strategies can be both timely and sensitive to the impacts of populat ion shifts. It is assumed that while the costs associated with housing and communi ty improvement are a function of current condit ions, the private incen-tivies and public payoffs for improvement stem from the strength of the demand for housing in an area and the im-
88 CITY DEPARTMENTS. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
plied changes in neighborhood housing values. For the past two (2) years staff have been developing and
refining a data collection system to monitor changes in the competitive position of residential areas. The key indicator used in that system is deed transfer data as reported in the Daily Reporter.
The maintenance and upgrading of this data collection system is the most important activity in the Comprehensive Planning Section. If it is to be meaningful it must be maintained and expanded on a daily basis. At present all computer input, geo-coding and clearing of project files are handled by the Comprehensive Planning staff. A procedures manual has been prepared to detail the process of inputing and editing project files.
In October 1982 the Growth Potential report was published. The purpose of the report is to provide an objective and realistic appraisal of the potential for overall population growth and its possible impact on the construction and distribution of housing in the county. The characteristics of growth examined in the report provide an informative base for functional planning activities such as sewer, water, parks and transportation. In addition, the analysis of growth will assist in evaluating the relative dispersal and location of Capital Improvements.
Highlights of the Growth Potential Report include an extensive analysis of the spatial distribution of single-family subdivision patterns and an overview of the Columbus economy.
After the completion of the Columbus Displacement Study by the Decision Research Corporation as consultants to the Development Department in January of 1982, staff began a series of meetings with a group of near northside citizens who earlier had voiced their concern for displacement at meetings of the Housing Advisory Committee. Working together the staff and the volunteers completed a Prelimin-ary Displacement Report dated 20 April 1982. Some time later the citizen task force volunteered to prepare a final draft. After both documents were reviewed by the task force it was decided that both the task force and the staff could still work together to produce one (1) report acceptable to both parties. Since August staff has continued to meet with the task force to assist in the preparation of a final report. That document will be presented at a Housing Advisory Committee meeting in January 1983 for their analysis and recommendations.
Staff has begun to update the housing condition and needs tables of the Columbus Housing Assistance Plan. HUD requirements were delivered to the city in November and a workshop was held to assist the city with the new forms.
Staff also completed data gathering and analysis of the municipal costs and revenues associated with the proposed deannexation of Olentangy Highlands.
During the first quarter of 1982 the staff prepared and reviewed both the list of possible code amendments and the process of preparing and reviewing amendments with the Division's management team. After extensive discussion a priority list of amendments was established. That list, with only a couple of exceptions, has determined the code revision work program. A folder for each request was prepared with background information inserted. A form of r requests was devised and distributed to the Division.
The 1982 Columbus Physical Improvement Needs Survey was published in October. The document was updated from 1981 with considerable assistance from City Service Divisions and neighborhood organizations. The needs survey was utilized as input to the City's 1983-88 Capital Improvement Program.
The actual 1983-1988 Capital Improvements Program was completed as scheduled as a guide to the 1983 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) with a resolution for its approval submitted to City Council. A draft of the budget was printed for city administrators and was reviewed by the Development Commission on December 9. The Finance Department completed work on the 1983 CIB and a final Capital Improvement document was prepared by staff for publication in early 1983.
A total of 22 annexation petitions were processed by staff in 1982 and a total of 240.76 acres added to the City of Columbus.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Initial research and planning for the potential of enter
prise zones in Columbus was completed including detailed analyses of the enterprise zone concept, research on salient features of proposed Federal and existing State legislation and statistical mapping of Columbus census tracts that would qualify for inclusion in an enterprise zone. In the near
future, the Columbus City Council will consider an enterprise zone program for Columbus based upon the recommendations of the Enterprise Zone Task Force and the Mayor's Economic Development Council.
Staff prepared applications for extensions of the Department of Development EDA 302(a) Planning Grant. An additional $81,000 was awarded to the Department under this program during 1982, and an additional $13,500 is expected for the first quarter of 1983.
The Columbus Economic Review (CER) was published quarterly in 1982. Its focus was broadened to include planning development issues, such as an article on the 1-670/ Northeast Corridor Growth Report. The CER is mailed to 800 members of the financial, business, government and academic community and has proved to be a useful vehicle for updates on the statistical and analytic trends affecting the Columbus economic community.
The Economic Development Section continued to provide staff support for the activities of Mayor's Economic Development Council, as well as their Enterprise Zone and Research and Development Task Forces.
Staff also provides information and technical assistance to private entities seeking to maintain or expand physical facilities and jobs in Columbus. As a result of one such inquiry, by a Dayton robotics firm interested in expansion in Columbus, a tour of The Ohio State University's research facilities was arranged for ranking company officials.
Other special projects include research on the business incubator concept similar to the Toledo, Ohio model and staff participation in the Research and Development Task Force of the Mayor's Economic Development Council.
1982 was a product year for the City's utilization of the Federal Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) program, with the City drawing down and putting to use some $3,740,000 in UDAG funds, and receiving an additional award of $500,000. The City executed its first UDAG loan in August, making $315,000 in UDAG funds available to the Copco Paper Company. The $315,000 UDAG loan leveraged an additional $5,485,000 into the project, which will create 32 new permanent jobs for Columbus, while retaining an additional 276.
The City's second UDAG drawdown involved the $1,925,000 UDAG grant awarded to the City to defray its investment costs in the Hyatt Hotel development site in Capitol South. Receipt of the $1,925,000 UDAG award is leveraging over $40,000,000 in investment into the Hyatt project. A $50,000 Galbreath office building is under construction adjacent to the hotel.
The Ohio Theatre project was given a considerable boost this past year by both drawdown of its initial $1,500,000 UDAG loan, and the award of an additional $500,000 in UDAG funds. The initial UDAG award is leveraging more than $6,000,000 of investment into CAPA's project, while helping in the creation of some 119 new jobs. The second UDAG award will bring an additional $1,700,000 in investment and 58 new jobs.
Overall in 1982, the City was able to leverage $51,000,000 in private investment through the drawdown of $3,740,000 in UDAG funds. These projects will create 576 new job opportunities for Columbus. An additional $500,000 UDAG was awarded for the Ohio Theatre. These figures represent both a significant accomplishment and a formidable challenge for better performance in 1983.
The primary goal of the Division's services to Minority Businesses is to stimulate the overall economic vitality of" Columbus through increased participation of minority businesses in all respects of our local economy. During 1982, staff have responded to 793 requests for technical and man- -agement skill deve lopment , and has helped secure at $4,280,698 in contracts for 32 local minority entrepreneurs. 3ijj9n9rq9-The Division also publishes The Exchange six (6) times year- -TCLIV aamit ly. This minority business newsletter has a circulation of Io noilEiuo over 2,200 both in and out of Ohio.
A new local effort began in 1982 with the planning and I execution of the first MINI-FAIR, held in conjunction with: the Columbus Regional Minority Supplier Development!, Council (CRMSDC) in July. INFORMAFAIR places the > largest possible number of purchasing representatives in i one place at one time, and then, at little or no cost to minority vendors, allows them to make "a month's worth of sales-calls in a single afternoon."
Division staff are researching a Working Capital Loam, Program, which would be financed through contributions:! in the form of long-term, fixed interest loans to the program i from the local business community. Staff also structured <9 and researched a survey of minority business activity in Co- •' lumbus and Central Ohio. The survey is currently being con-no ducted for the Development Department by a private con-jnbo 9Jsvhti sultant.

SAFETY ADMINISTRATION Annual Report — 1982
During 1982, The Department of Public Safety was comprised of the following Divisions: Administration, Communications, Fire, and Police.
The Administrative Staff included a Director, Assistant Director, Administrative Secretary, Receptionist/Secretary, Stenographer Clerk, an Administrative Analyst, and a part-time Personnel Analyst. The Receptionist/Secretary resigned and was not replaced due to budgetary constraints.
The License Section, which is a part of the Safety Director's Office, was staffed by a License Supervisor, two License Officers, a Typist-Clerk, and a Data Entry Operator. During the year, the Data Entry Operator resigned and an additional Typist-Clerk was hired.
The License Appeals Board is designed for the purpose of hearing citizen appeals to City licensing decisions. There were five license appeals during 1982. One appeal dealing with Mechanical Musical Instrument and Mechanical Amusement Device was dismissed. The License Section decisions were upheld in the other appeals which included a Mechanical Amusement Device, two Tow Truck Owner/ Operators and one Taxicab Owner. The appeals were made because of denials or revocations of licenses.

Total $461,377.03
The Character 01 amount included $18,870.00 in un-empolyment compensation expense. This expense was for former Division of Workhouse employees. The Division of Workhouse was formerly under the Safety Department and was transferred to Franklin County in 1981. In addition to unemployment compensation expense, the 1982 Safety Director's Budget also included Workhouse Worker's Compensation charges based on 1981 wages.
The Safety Director contracted with Emergency Medical Associates, Inc. for the services of Police-Fire Surgeon. This contract accounted for $45,000 of the Character 03 expenditure. The Police-Fire Surgeon provides medical health care to uniformed Police and Fire employees and civilian Public Safety Officers. Other services include the administration of physical examinations to applicants and sworn members and Public Safety Officers on a regular basis.
During 1982, the Safety Director implemented height/
weight standards for Police Officers and Firefighters. The standards were developed and are monitored by the Police-Fire Surgeon.
During 1982, there was one Police recruit class with 23 graduates and one Fire recruit class with 35 graduates.
The new structure for Fire Station #1 was completed and the station became operational. The former location of Station #1 was 260 N. Fourth Street. The City retained title to former Station #1 and the adjacent warehouse at that location.
The Safety Director negotiated the conveyance of land for a new Fire Station near the Little Turtle development. The land was obtained without direct cost to the City. Certain restrictive covenants were agreed to by both parties.
On September 30, 1982, the Police, Fire, and civilian employee union agreements expired. The Safety Department provided direct input in the negotiation process for Police and Fire. The Administrative Analyst served as a member of the Administration Team for Police negotiations and the Business Manager from the Division of Fire served as a member of the Administration Team for Fire negotiations.
The civilian employee's union settled for a ten-month extension with no increase in pay. The Police and Fire Unions did not settle during 1982. Various members of the Police union staged a brief "sickout" which ended after City Council promised to identify funds for pay raises for safety forces.
The Safety Director conducted negotiations with the Mayor of Bexley for a fire protection contract which expired December 31, 1982.
During 1982, the Safety Director's Office was involved in reviewing various fees charged by the Department. As a result of this review, a number of fees were increased such as charges for copies of Police and Fire Reports, Crime Lab Fees, and various licenses and permits. The Safety Director also entered into contracts which provide the services of our Police Crime Scene Search Unit to other law enforcement agencies.
In addition to the administrative responsibilities relating to the Safety Department, the Safety Director and/or Assistant Safety Director served on the many and varied boards and commissions.
The License Section, under the direction of the Director of Public Safety, is responsible for the issuance, fee collection, investigation, and enforcement of approximately fifty various licenses and permits. The section also reviews and processes applications for indigent burials.
During 1982, the computerized licensing operation was discontinued and the section reverted back to a manual system of license issuance. The computerized operation was determined to be non-cost effective and was discontinued in order to alleviate other budgetary restraints.

During the course of the year there were a total of 475 working fires of which 18 were second alarm and 2 were third alarm.
In order to assure the quality and cont inuous improvement of firefighting operat ions, Emergency Services personnel engaged in n u m e r o u s activities geared to accomplish that objective:
• All fires were inves t iga ted to de t e rmine their cause. C o u r t h e a r i n g s w e r e a t t e n d e d in cases of a r son or carelessly set fires.
• All working fires and other significant emergencies were cr i t iqued for m a x i m u m t ra in ing value; 336 investigat ions were conduc ted by Battal ion Chiefs or their alternates.

• All City fire hydran ts were p u m p e d and flushed in the spring and s u m m e r of the year, followed by a weekly check in the winter , keep ing the hydran ts free of water. This check involved approximate ly 16,580 hydrants . The Bureau of Emergency Services cont inued its priority system with the Division of Water for replacement and repair of fire hydran ts .
Fire Prevention Activities An ever increasing emphas i s was placed upon the quality
and quant i ty of bui ld ing and high rise safety inspections (see Bureau of Fire Prevent ion Report) .
The Bureau of Emergency Services recorded 19,565 hours on building inspect ions. The High Rise Officers and their alternates recorded 1,264 hours on the High Rise Program.
Bureau of Emergency Services personnel were involved in the p lanning and carrying out of a successful Fire Prevention Week Campaign. Dur ing tha t week fire companies were scheduled into publ ic and parochia l e lementary schools. Open House was held at all fire s tat ions. Various fire and emergency medica l c o m p a n i e s s u p p o r t e d the s t a t ewide "Kick O f f activities and appropr ia te Fire Prevent ion Week demonstrat ions t h roughou t the down town area.

Project Number of Personnel Total Hours Recruit Training 72 900 Apprentice Testing 6 100 Background Investigators 5 2000 Oral Boards 12 390
Public Education The increase in public requests for fire safety programs
during 1982 was significant. Programs presented in October alone totaled 112, and presentat ions throughout the year by Emergency Services Personnel averaged 29 programs per month. Of the total, an average of 15 programs per month were school presentat ions, not including the special Fire Prevent ion Week Engine and Ladde r Company visits to schools.
In J u n e 1982 a new speakers ' program was announced. The new program (per Bulletin 82-36) required all Fire Division employees to present fire prevention, fire safety and fire information programs when called upon.
Rescue Squads averaged six Fire Ext inguisher Demonstrations per month . The remaining 276 documented fire safety presentat ions incorporated 194 slide programs as follows:
Times Presented
"Frankie the Fire Hydran t " 91 "Your Home Fire Escape P lan" (was not
available until late summer) 59 "Your Fire Safe H o m e " 40 "Facts of Fi re" 4
Other types of programs frequently presented included: Firefighting as a Vocation and Career 32 Evacuation Planning and Training 14
Firefighters used much initiative in fulfilling requests for these and numerous other fire safety programs. Included were discussions on fire safety for offices, public buildings, apa r tmen t s , high rises, cons t ruc t ion sites and k i t chens . Also, fire safety while babysi t t ing and camping were addressed. Discussions with very young chi ldren often included a demonstra t ion of the fire gear with the hope of eliminating apprehension in case a rescue by a firefighter ever became necessary for them.
Many thousands of persons were provided fire safety information by Emergency Services personnel dur ing 1982. Three live call-in radio broadcast programs on fire safety using Division of Fire personnel as guests reached wide central Ohio audiences . Emergency Services personnel also par t ic ipa ted in n u m e r o u s TV p rog rams and in terviews. Other fire safety programs were presented to persons ranging in age from pre-schoolers to res idents of senior citizen complexes.
New Resources Thirty-six (36) firefighters were t rained and added to the
Division on August 6, 1982. During 1982 the Emergency Services Bureau received and
placed into service the following major i tems: • Five (5) fire p u m p e r s • One (1) aerial platform In addition, dedication ceremonies were held October 3,

These seminars explained the app ren t i ce sh ip program and how the offices could assist the appren t ice in meet ing these requi rements . The Apprent iceship Office also conduc ted wri t ten and performance tests for all of the firefighters in the various steps of the program. In addi t ion where these tests showed that an individual needed addi t ional s tudy or pract ice to be able to meet the s tandards , this office set u p and conducted these classes.
The Apprent icesh ip Office also took on the responsibil i ty of adminis te r ing t h e Nat ional Fire Acadamy 's course on Fire/Arson Detection. Dur ing 1982 the ins t ructors for this program were t ra ined and they will conduc t classes for other Division personnel dur ing 1983.
The Recruit Training Office graduated a class of 36 recruit apprentice firefighters dur ing 1982. Prior to the start of this class all course outlines in the recruit program were revised and course objectives defined. In addition all the i tems used to test the knowledge of the recruit and the effectiveness of the training program were reviewed and many were revised.
There was a training workshop held for all battalion chiefs and rescue company personnel on how to handle emergencies in building elevators. This workshop was conducted by personnel of the Dover Elevator Company.
The Aircrash and Rescue Office completed the first draft of the Crash-Fire-Rescue Handbook during 1982; this draft was submit ted to Emergency Services Bureau personnel for their review in October.

The Manual Revision Office has revised all the sect ions of the Training Manual which cover ground ladders and their uses. This office also worked extensively with a team from Ohio State University to evaluate the impact of some of our evolutions on female firefighters. In addit ion the following sections of the Training Manual are in the process of being revised: Portable Fire Ext inguishers , Communicat ions , Self Contained Breathing Appara tus .
The Recrui tment of EEO Office assisted Civil Service personnel in conduct ing the cardiovascular stress tests, scheduling medical examinat ions at Grant Hospital , and conducting background investigations for all firefighter applicants.

• To conduct a course on Instruct ional Methodology for all personnel who teach at the Academy.
• To u p d a t e the mater ia ls ass igned to the Division libraries.
The only goal that was not addressed at all dur ing 1982 was to develop a recruiting program. This was in part due to the fact that the Civil Service ent rance list was ex tended to
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
September 1983. Since there would not be an ent rance test during 1982, it was felt that a recruiting drive would not be productive.
Goals for 1983 D u r i n g J a n u a r y of 1983 the Tra in ing Bureau will be
assigned the responsibili ty for all Emergency Medical Technician training. In order to carry out these addit ional duties the Medical Training Office of the Training Bureau is being created. It will be located in the Medical Training Center which is at 739 W. Third Avenue.
This addition will greatly increase the scope of the Training Bureau 's mission and we have set the following as our goals for 1983. „ „ . „ ,
1 To complete the first phase of the Office Development course and start the second phase of this course.
2. To work on a recrui t ing program designed to at tract qualified members of the protected classes.
- 3. To certify 70% of the firefighters in the Division as EMT-A's.
4. To revise selected sections and develop addit ional sections of the Training Manual .
5. To continue a validation s tudy of the recruit t raining program.
6. To conduct 2 classes to certify selected m e m b e r s of the Division as EMT-P's.
7. To upda te the materials assigned to the Division libraries.
8. To develop a program for evaluat ing emergency squad and medic personnel .
9.. To implement a program for t raining and evaluat ing rescue and air crash company personnel .

the Central Ohio Reading Service Station was estimated to have reached approximately 20,000 persons having a form of vision handicap.
Other major events and activities of the Office of Community Relations dur ing 1982 included:
• Assisted in the Awards Program • Arranged a live he l icopter demons t ra t ion s imulat ing
high rise rescue for the Ohio Safety Directors ' Association
• Issued 50 News Releases • Coordinated Fire Prevent ion Week activities • Distr ibuted approximate ly 77,000 pamphle ts , of which
50,000 " F r a n k i e ' s F i re E s c a p e P lan For My H o m e " b r o c h u r e s were prov ided direct ly to the e lementary schools in the City of Co lumbus
• Coordinated the dis t r ibut ion of fire safety posters by Emergency Services to most Co lumbus area businesses during Fire Prevent ion Week
• Arranged the Firefighters ' Memorial Service • Arranged the Dedicat ion Ceremony for new Fire Station
No. 1 • Assisted with several exhibi ts and displays; i.e., Lazarus,
Ohio State Fair, Nat ionwide, Ohio Center, etc. One of the outs tanding accompl i shments of the Office of
Community Relat ions dur ing 1982 was the complet ion and promotion of the sl ide p rogram titled "Your Home Fire Escape Plan". The program was designed to instill good fire safety and prevent ion habi ts , especial ly dur ing developmental years and was offered to all parochial, private and public e lementary schools wi th in the City of Columbus . This p r o g r a m , a long wi th t h e s u p p l e m e n t a l b r o c h u r e , "Frankie 's Fire Escape Plan For My Home" , was developed and printed in cooperat ion with the Columbus Advert ising Federat ion and was awarded first place nationally for a program of its type.
1982 saw several major changes within the Bureau of Fire Prevention. Among these were the pilot t raining and inspection programs involving the High Rise Life Safety Evaluation System. These represented the final phase toward implementing a program for improving life safety in high rise buildings as directed by the Mayor 's Task Force establ :shed in 1981.
The Basic Inc ident Repor t ing Sys tem (902 F & G) computerization project moved into its final phase with the development of the p rogram and training of the clerical staff regarding C.R.T. Data Entry . M a n a g e m e n t Repor ts were studied and data en t ry will soon follow.
Information was gathered on the operat ions fire safety inspection districts. This data will be used in redistr ibut ing the hours of inspect ion t ime within the 114 inspection districts.
The Fire Prevent ion Bureau Directive was developed. Its development will hopefully fill the need for providing clarity, information, and direction regarding the fire code and
other areas within the framework of the Bureau. It is felt the directives will be of value not only to Operations Inspectors but to Bureau of Fire Prevent ion personnel as well.
Finally, the Bureau saw a change in its base of operations moving from the Administrat ive Offices at 200 Greenlawn Avenue to Fire Station #1 Complex at 300 N. Four th Street. This change provided needed addit ional facilities for all offices of the Bureau of Fire Prevention.
TECHNICAL PLANNING OFFICE The primary function of the Technical Planning Office is
to implement and oversee the renovation port ion of the Division's Capital Improvements Program. As part of this responsibility, this office participated in the planning, cost estimation, and compilation of the planning list of renovations for staff review and approval.
There were 15 major projects planned and approved during 1982. These projects had a combined cost est imate of $110,000.00. Due to economic constraints, the 1982 C.I.P. renovation budget was reduced to $55,000.00 and was available for use during August .
Some of the major projects implemented under the 1982 C.I.P. were:
a. Overhead door controls Fire Station No. 8 b. Automatic Door Closers Fire Station No. 15 c. Pave Front and Side Fire Station No. 18 d. Exterior site renovation Fire Station No. 15 e. Renovation of Facility into offices
& classrooms Fire Station No. 9 g. New energy efficient insulated

ANNUAL REPORT—1982 DIVISION OF COMMUNICATIONS
A major project developed short ly after the start of 1982 when it was discovered that a major communica t ions cable ran through the Capital Sou th deve lopment area and had to be moved. The urgency of the si tuation was such that all routine work for the Te lephone section was halted and all resources directed towards the relocation of this cable (600 pair). The move was comple ted ahead of schedule .
The first two l inks for the proposed City-wide microwave system were received and installed. They are now operational and have resul ted in m u c h quieter and more reliable communications from the two Police voter sites involved.
A 200 line electronic private au tomat ic branch exchange (EPABX) was installed and modified to cus tomer specifications at the new Fire House # 1 for the Fire Prevent ion area. A key system was installed in the remainder of the stations to provide communica t ions identical to other stations in the system. This resul ts in all s ta t ions in the system having the same type of internal communica t ions sys tem installed, a distinct advantage when personnel are transferred.
The installation of the cable at Capital South , when combined wi th c a b l e i n s t a l l a t i o n s at Ulry Road , M O R P C , Marion Road, and other areas approached 100,000 feet of cable being installed. Par t of this was an extension of a 400 pair cable be tween the main Police Headquar te r s building and City Hall, resul t ing in a m u c h improved communications capability.
The E P A B X at the Data Center was moved to a more favorable envi ronmenta l area. This has resulted in a dramatic decrease in the total n u m b e r of Service Reques ts for maintenance related to this equ ipmen t .
The preventive ma in tenance program has been expanded to cover all Divisions with emphas i s on the Police and Fire Divisions. On site ma in t enance and repair at the main transmitter sites has been comple ted .

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
The Division of Service Administration is responsible for coordinating and directing the Administrative, Financial, Engineering, Personnel and Organizational Development activities of all the divisions within the Department of Public Service to assure the quality of services provided meets the expectations of the citizens of Columbus. In response to public demands for improved services, the departmental staff has concentrated their efforts on enhancing managerial planning and performance and on improvements in overall service delivery through technological advances.
The Organizational Development Section continues to make strides in improving management training opportunities and developing specialized programs to meet the management challenges faced by all supervisory levels within the organization.
The Columbus Public Service Chapter of the National Management Association chartered in 1981 entered its second year as a major contributing factor to the enhanced managerial perspective that exists within the Department. The Financial Management Section worked closely with the various divisions to coordinate budget preparation, streamline financial monitoring and eliminate the need for supplemental budget appropriations. The Administrative Section monitored progress toward achieving various departmental goals and worked to improve public awareness and understanding of services provided by the Department. The Engineering Section continued to work with Division of Sanitation personnel in the design and construction of major safety improvements to the City's pulverizer facilities. Improvements were also made in the area of plans review and onsite work inspections due to the use of a part-time engineering student. The Personnel Section continued their efforts to develop effective personnel procedures in order to reduce lengthy delays in filling critical vacancies. The Personnel Section coordinated the evaluation of Departmental Hiring Review Forms and monitored efforts in hiring only essential personnel who terminated.
The Service Department is organized into nine divisions, including Service Administration. Two divisions are financed primarily from the tax supported General Fund. Seven divisions are classified as self-supporting and derive the majority of their funding from the sale of services to the public and private sectors. The divisions in the Service Department are:
GENERAL FUND DIVISIONS SERVICE ADMINISTRATION — Discussed further on page 3. SANITATION — The Division of Sanitation is responsible
for the collection and disposal of solid wastes for the citizens of Columbus. The service includes weekly household refuse collection, pulverization and transportation to sanitary landfills.
SELF-SUPPORTING DIVISIONS STREET MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR — The Division of
Street Maintenance and Repair is responsible for cleaning and maintaining all streets and alleys within the City. This task encompasses design and construction of new streets, bridges and expressways; patching and resurfacing; snow and ice removal; right-of-way maintenance and leaf pick-up. The Division also supervises the mapping of annexations and issues house numbers for all subdivisions and apartment complexes in the City.
AIRPORT — The Division of Airports is responsible for the operation of both Port Columbus International and Bolton Field.
CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION — The Division of Construe-tion Inspection provides inspection services for public construction projects in accordance with the Construction and Material Specifications Manual of the City. The Division inspects projects of the Service Department Divisions of Sewerage and Drainage, Water, Street Maintenance and Repair, Electricity and any other divisions requesting its assistance. The Division also inspects construction of private roads, sewer and water lines.
ELECTRICITY — The Division of Electricity is a City-owned utility serving residential and commercial customers in the downtown and central city area. All citizens of Columbus benefit from the street lighting services provided at no charge, by the division.
SERVICE ADMINISTRATION ANNUAL REPORT—1982
SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE — The Division of Sewerage and Drainage is responsible for the collection and treatment of all sanitary waste discharged in the City of Columbus and surrounding suburbs. The Division plans, constructs, maintains and monitors the good working order of all storm and sanitary sewers and the two treatment plants in the City.
TRAFFIC ENGINEERING AND PARKING — The Division of Traffic Engineering and Parking is responsible for the construction, operation and maintenance of the traffic control facilities within the City.
WATER — The Division of Water operates two water treatment plants which supply virtually the entire Columbus Metropolitan Area with potable water. The Division maintains a standby treatment facility at Nelson Road which can be utilized in case of emergencies or peak demand periods. The Division maintains the water distribution network, all water meters, taps and fire hydrants in the City.
DIVISION OF SERVICE ADMINISTRATION As previously noted, the Division of Service Administra
tion is responsible for overall management and administration of the Department of Public Service. The Department staff provided managerial input into the implementation of the new utility billing and accounts receivable system for the Divisions of Water and Sewerage and Drainage. Evaluation of the mechanical lift system of refuse collection with the Division of Sanitation, construction of the Airport expansion project and the Coal/Refuse Fired Power Plant and planning for alternative forms of financing for various public services.
The Department staff assisted the Division of Water in its presentation of rate review materials to the Sewer and Water Advisory Board. A new cost of service rate structure was approved for implementation over a multi-year schedule. The new structure will more equitably distribute water system costs to the causers of those costs.
The ADMINISTRATION SECTION of the Department is comprised of the Service Director, who has the task of planning, coordinating and administering the tremendous public works program developed by the City; and the Departmental Fiscal Management Officer who supervises the departmental staff and coordinates the fiscal and organizational development activities throughout the Department.
The Director, as chief policymaker for the Department with respect to developing new programs to accomplish the public goals of the Mayor and Council, is charged with the responsibility of scheduling the Operating and Capital Improvements Program to meet the needs of the citizens of Columbus. Services are provided utilizing the latest technological advances which are designed to reduce the financial burden upon the City.
Robert C. Parkinson is currently the Service Director and has served in that capacity since January 1, 1975.
The Service Director is a member of several commissions and committees including the Development Commission, Mass Transit Study Committee, the Sewer and Water Advisory Board, Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission, Information Services Commission and Columbus Area Growth Foundation.
The 1982 fiscal year was extremely difficult from a financial position. All of the divisions were required to uphold a high level of service with reduced numbers of personnel and in some cases, less real dollars than were available in 1981. It is hoped that the passage of the City income tax increase of .5% that sufficient funding will be available in 1983 to maintain the current level of services. The Division of Sanitation, in particular, was adversely affected by the budget constraints of fiscal year 1982. It is the intent of the Department to concentrate on improving service delivery in the Division of Sanitation through the implementation of the mechanical lift system during 1983. The Division of Water made significant progress toward implementation of a cost-of-service rate structure. The Sewer and Water Advisory Board approved division plans for a phased implementation of the new structure over the next several years. The Division of Electricity has made substantial progress toward completion of the Coal/Refuse Fired Power Plant and is planning to generate electricity by the Summer of 1983. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT — The Financial Management Section throughout the fiscal year 1982 worked very closely with the Service Divisions in the areas of financial planning and administration.

1983 PRIORITIES The Division of Service Administrat ion, as in the past, has
identified specific areas of impor tance for the fiscal year 1983. Several priorities have been established.
In taking a slightly different approach in 1983, Service Administrat ion's efforts will be more project oriented, at the same t ime cont inuing to provide overall assistance and support to the Service Divisions.
Some specific areas identified are as follows: As the Division of Sanitat ion under takes the Mechanized
Collection Sys tem, Service Admin i s t r a t ion will p rovide assistance in the areas project adminis trat ion in identifying funding sources, as well as, assis tance in organizational restructuring to maximize the use of available personnel .
In early 1983 the Municipal Electric Plant will begin operation which will require assistance in coordinat ing activities between Electricity, the County, the Division of Sanitation and private refuse collectors.
In the area of traffic control, t he Depar tment will cont inue to s tudy the feasibility of expanding the Computer ized Signal Program possibly into the other municipali t ies.
In the area of street maintenance , Service Administrat ion will aid the Division of Engineer ing and Construct ion in their cont inuing effort to improve the overall quali ty of arterial streets. As a result of a mild winter, street main tenance crews were able to do more patching dur ing this period. Less damage occurred to the streets from the mild winter allowing street main tenance crews to make progress toward their goal.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE. COLUMBUS, OHIO 1982
DIVISION OF AIRPORTS ANNUAL REPORT — 1982
The differences between 1981 and 1982 at Port Columbus International Airport were satisfying, significant, and encouraging. , , .
Mr. Webster defines the word "fruition as, pleasurable use ot possession: ENJOYMENT . . . REALIZATION, ACCOMPLISHMENT . . ." . Based on this, we, at Port Columbus, feel that we have reached the state of fruition for a number of reasons. One of the primary reasons is the virtually total completion of the $72,000,000 reconstruction project. It is enjoyable to see a project such as this become a reality, and it is pleasurable to see travelers, visitors, and employees, smile and comment on the vastly improved appearance and usefulness of the facilities. The depressed drive which was designed into the project to facilitate commercial vehicle operations, is the only major item remaining to be completed, and it is expected to become operational in early 1983. Unless Columbus encounters a totally unanticipated period of extreme growth, this drive, and the existing road system should be very capable of handling vehicular traffic into the 21st century.
The realization that the cautious optimism expressed in the 1981 message, that a modest increase would be experienced in the passenger volume in 1982, has become an accomplishment which exceeded expectations. Although the economy, in general, remained somewhat sluggish, the final tally of passengers made 1982 the second busiest year in the history of Port Columbus. With deregulation continuing toward sunset, and the apparent internal conflict between the major oil producing nations indicating further reductions in oil prices, we are again cautiously optimistic that the economy will improve, to the point that 1983 will be a near record year for Port Columbus.
The only reversal which was encountered during 1982 was in the reduction of aircraft operations at Bolton Field Airport, which was caused by the loss of the night time air freight operations which began at Bolton Field in 1981. Although the reduction is significant to the operators at Bolton Field, the operations were retained within the overall Airport system because of a relocation to Port Columbus.
The achievements presented in this report are not the product of any one individual, but are the accomplishment of teamwork in a unified manner. This has made my job much easier and more pleasant, and I wish to acknowlege the efforts of the City Administration, the Columbus Metropolitan Airport and Aviation Commission, the concessionaires, airlines, airport tenants, and the entire staff of the airport who really make it run on a daily basis.
PARKING FACILITY The Port Columbus Parking Facility entered 1982 begin
ning a new era of service to the traveling public. It was the year we entered the electronic age with the installation of electronic fee computers, electronic counters, ticket validators and related equipment to replace the mechanical cash registers which have become victims of age. It was the year of transition we had forecast the previous year as the old Port Columbus gave way to the new Port Columbus and a new chapter of airport history was begun.
The new electronic equipment installed in the exit booths have greatly enhanced the efficiency of our attendants to process customer traffic. With the old equipment we had to manually time stamp tickets, compute fees, key in the fee on the register and take that ticket by hand and place it in a storage bin. Now, with the fee computers, the attendants read the time stamp from the parking ticket, key in that time on the keyboard and the computer will compute the fee display the fee on an indicator located on the side of the booth for the customer to see, validates the ticket and drops it into a collection box. It also stores all information in a memory bank so we may retrieve it at a later date. This system eliminates the time consumed processing a ticket and allows us to attend to customer needs. The computers will provide us with printout, upon demand, of customers exiting on particular fee increments, the total fee collected tor the increments and a total summary of transactions for each computer.
«9T9«9 « o e ^ U e f l e e t e d by the parking facility for 1982 was $2 282 388.75 which was $632,861.90 more than the revenue collected in 1981. This is the best year the parking facility tfSQ^Xr?nennn"-ed S , n C e 1 9J .8 w h e n w e collected more than i i QfiS non 'nruVen
cu
0e- J h e t o t a l t i c k e t s collected for 1982
was 968,020 which is 56,561 more than 1981. The increase in
revenue can be attributed to the parking fee rate increase which went into effect on August 1,1982. The small increase in customer traffic can be attributed to the economic situation of the country and the drop in airline customer traffic. Yet, the parking facility performed well in 1982 and there is optimism for the future of our business; because, as Columbus grows, Port Columbus will prosper as the avenue of travel to that growth.
THE NEW PORT COLUMBUS — YEAR ONE The new $72 million Port Columbus expansion passed the
acceptance test with flying colors. With the October 4, 1981, dedication, 1982 became the first completed year of operation for the new "front door" to Columbus. In 1982,2,657,470 passengers passed through the new facility, resulting in a substantial 9.2% passenger increase, reviving optimism that the total passengers at Port Columbus in 1983 will pass the record year of the 2,800,008 figure set in 1979, bringing the beginning of a protracted era of economic growth and stability.
Airport officials are pleased to show off the new facility and do so by encouraging guided tours of the terminal daily. Tours are arranged by the airport staff and are conducted by the Airport Ambassadors, a group of volunteers who give tours of the terminal facility to children and adults. At the present time, we have 25 daytime volunteers and approximately 15 evening volunteers. The Airport Ambassadors are very enthusiastic about telling senior citizens and children about the services and facilities Port Columbus offers. During the year of 1982, 25 Airport Ambassadors gave a total of 378 tours through Port Columbus. On these tours, there were 7,202 children and adults. The volunteer hours given to the airport for this project for the year 1982 were 756. During our open houses in October and November, 55 volunteers worked and 523 children and adults toured the airport. The volunteer hours given to the airport for these events were 165.
On July 22nd, Mayor Moody, Superintendent Daniel F. Ginty, and the Port Columbus Airport Commission opened a small copper time capsule, lifted from the 1929 cornerstone. This was only the second time in 53 years the capsule had been opened, the other time being at the 1958 airport expansion, the original dedication of the structure that became the base of the present $72 million expansion. The capsule contained such information as, in 1929 milk was 12 cents a quart, gasoline sold for 27 cents a gallon, and the sticker price on Ford automobiles was $600. James J. Thomas was Mayor, the population of Columbus was 300,000 and the City measured 768 acres. Today, Tom Moody is Mayor, Columbus has more than 600,000 people and covers 1,800 acres.
On December 7,1982, the cornerstone was laid, sealing the commemorate completion of the $72 million project. Included in the cornerstone were letters written by Tom Moody, Mayor of City of Columbus; M. D. Portman, President of City Council; Robert C. Parkinson, Director of Public Service; George W. Byers II, Chairman, Airport and Aviation Commission; and Daniel F. Ginty, Superintendent of Airports.
The Airport Commission sponsored an Essay Contest for the students of the Columbus Public School, grades 4-10 on the topic "Aviation In The Year 2030." In each intermediate, middle and high school, one winner was selected. These school winners received a Dedication Print of the Airport and were entered in system-wide competition. System-wide winners, one intermediate, one middle, and one high school were awarded a medallion and their essays were placed inside the cornerstone at Port Columbus.
Also, placed in the cornerstone for future openings were a short history of Port Columbus by Kline L. Roberts, Jr.; a cassette tape of dedication ceremony — 1981; a 1979 annual report; two autographed programs from Dedication — 1981; a color photograph of the new airport pictured in Sunday, January 24, 1982 Columbus Dispatch; pictures of each of the three sculptures due to be erected at Port Columbus; a Columbus Citizen Journal morning newspaper; a Columbus Dispatch evening newspaper; and other assorted paraphernalia.
The new Port Columbus — Year One, 1982, where over 2,650,000 passengers passed, expressing acceptance of a new facility; the realization of a dream that began in 1929 with just over 11,000 passengers passing through the "front door" of Columbus, Ohio.

BUILDING MAINTENANCE The construct ion ending, t h e 485,000 square feet terminal
building completed it's first shakedown year with very few problems.
January of 1982 contained some very cold weather causing frozen water and spr inkler sys tem lines. A main water line break resulted in a flash flooding of the basement level.
The cold wind blew into the terminal causing a temperature drop that immediate ly m a d e all concerned aware of the need of a temporary wind-break at the four entrance areas. Permanent adjustable wind-breaks were installed by the fall of 1982.
The main tenance sect ion processed 5,684 t rouble calls in 1982 which included not only te rminal main tenance but answered to the main tenance of fifteen outlying buildings including two cargo buildings, airfield main tenance building, General Aviation bui lding, and one fire house.
Major projects at these outlying areas for 1982 included installing new sewer ejector p u m p s at the 17th Avenue station, moving and ins ta l l ing several r a m p and fuel farm gates, a new roof on the U.S. Army Special Forces buiding, and numerous small electrical and te lephone installations.
The main tenance section is also responsible for maintaining the grass, t rees and plants along the 17th Avenue entrance, the cour tyards and a round all parking areas. These outside areas contain several t housand trees and plants with the maintenance area being also responsible for maintaining and watering 50 indoor plants .
The B u i l d i n g A u t o m a t i o n S y s t e m C o m p u t e r , used in monitoring all exist ing day to day main tenance functions as well as a much needed prevent ive main tenance system, was vital to all main tenance operat ions .
The environmenta l compu te r is totally hooked up. It is successful ly r u n n i n g t h e m e c h a n i c a l e q u i p m e n t in t h e building, the fire a larms and the securi ty doors.
The wide light compu te r used to br ighten and dim lights, turn on and off is in the final s tages of being programmed.
The Maintenance Manager compu te r is also in the final stages of being r ep rogrammed and should be a useful tool for the future.
AIRFIELD MAINTENANCE In 1982, several major improvemen t s on the airfield area
were completed to upgrade the airfield lighting and pavements for a safer more efficient airport .
Airfield lighting, approximate ly 6 miles of #6 wire in duct and direct burial and 134 new hi-intensity quartz runway lights were installed to u p g r a d e runway 10R-28L. The new lights use less power and are br ighter than the old lights which were replaced. T h e n e w lights use 115 to 175 wat ts each replacing the old lights of 204 wat ts .
Airfield paving was upgraded on taxiways "A", " B " , hangar line and a new park ing apron was built on taxiway "A" for the fixed base opera tor and for the use of small private planes to relieve the congest ion at taxiways "A" and " F " . Approximately 30,000 tons of hot mix asphal t were used to upgrade the east field area.
Airfield Main tenance supervis ion a t tended several very informative meet ings and an exchange of ideas concerning maintenance opera t ions of other a i rpor ts at the Internat ional Aviation S n o w S y m p o s i u m at Allentown, Pennsylvania in April , 1982. T h e S n o w S y m p o s i u m is affiliated wi th American Association of Airport Execut ives .
Management t ra in ing school was started in 1981 to increase the knowledge of City opera t ions with other City Divisions and personnel . Month ly mee t ings in 1982 are a good source of information where an exchange of ideas and problems can be discussed. A different speaker each mon th is very informative.
Demonst ra t ions were conduc ted on new equ ipmen t and new main tenance p roduc t s t h roughou t the year. A new type of crack sealer with a rubbe r base and applied hot, shows some promise in preventa t ive ma in tenance on pavements .
Field ma in tenance is based at Por t Co lumbus but also does main tenance work at Bolton Field Airport which is a reliever airport in S.W. par t of Frankl in County. Paint ing markings on runways , tax iways and r a m p s at bo th airports were applied, us ing 1700 gallons of paint in 1982. Sweeping and cleaning airfield pavemen t s is a much larger job because of our expanded facility at Por t Columbus . Sweeping and cleaning airfield pavemen t s he lps el iminate damage to aircraft engines and for t h e publ ic ' s safety at Por t Co lumbus and Bolton Field.
Equ ipment opera tors m o w approximate ly 1500 acres of grassy fields as n e e d e d and also m o w grass di tches and waterways to keep down trees and brush and lessen the
chance of large grass fires. Also mowing helps to keep animal and bird populat ions from becoming a hazard to aircraft close to runways and taxiways.
Snow removal dur ing the winter season of 1981 and 1982 kept snow crews busy plowing a total of 35.1 inches of snow for the season.
Repairing and servicing motorized equ ipment is a constant operation in keeping 8 buses running, 24 hours a day, to provide shutt le service for parkers as well as keeping 167 other motor vehicles, used in airport maintenance and operations, in good working order.
BOLTON FIELD
The modest increase in total aircraft operations reported for Bolton Field, in the 1981 annual report, was severely impacted by the deteriorating economy, and the loss of the night t ime commercial operat ions activity dur ing 1982.
As previously reported, the night operat ions began in August, 1980 and grew to the extent of requir ing 24 hour control tower operation, for five days of the week by July, 1981. Because of the need for addit ional facilities in early 1982, the commercial operator relocated his operat ions to Por t Columbus. It soon became apparent that there was no early prospect for a comparable operat ion to begin replacement service at Bolton Field, and the additional control tower operator position was terminated on April 30, 1982 as a cost reduction measure .
The following comparison will graphically portray how drastic and severe the operational reduct ions were:
Total Total Total Air Taxi Itinerant Local Operations
1981 9,377 38,901 45,947 84,786 1982 1,489 27,335 30,083 57,436 % Change -84% -29.7% -34.5% -32.3%
Despite these spirit dampen ing figures it should b e noted that in early to mid spring of 1983 the one millionth aircraft operation will occur at Bolton Field. This milestone should serve as an impetus to encourage the promotion of the use of Bolton Field to more fully serve its t rue functions as a reliever airport for Por t Columbus .
POLICE SUPPORT
The year of 1982, had the police section at the airport as busy as any in the City.
In early 1982, the Airpor t was plagued with a rash of armed robberies and hubcap thefts in the parking area. In February, a hubcap theft ring was broken up by the arrest of three individuals in the possession of twenty-seven hubcaps and tools for their removal.
A strike in July by drivers of an air freight company based at the airport caused some concern dur ing the rest of the year bu t was handled with very little problem to the Airport Police Section.
In August, the driver of a vehicle a t tempt ing to park his car on the second level front drive lost control of the vehicle when his accelerator stuck. When he hit a concrete wall 120 yards away, he had severely damaged two cars, moderately damaged three cars, slightly damaged a parked Police car and sent two adul ts and one infant to a local hospital .
During 1982, s ixteen (16) V.I.P. details were formed for the protection of celebrities, heads of State and Airport property. Most noticeably was the details arranged for Vice President Bush in February, former Pres ident Gerald Ford in August, Pres ident Ronald Reagan in October and former First Lady Betty Ford in October.
During 1982, one of the goals for the Airport Section was met early in the year when all officers were given forty (40) hours of In-Service training. Throughou t the year various roll call t raining classes were held to improve the professional training of Airport officers.
During 1982, weapons detect ion at the screening checkpoint increased over 1981 by 23% with 53 incidents compared wi th 43 in 1981. Addit ionally, 194 knives and 714 flammables were detected at the checkpoint .
The police section were involved in the traffic control area with 7,469 traffic warnings, 5,596 park ing citations, 514 moving vehicle citations, and 41 cars impounded .
The busy 1982 also conta ined 575 runway inspect ions, 17,401 buildings and area checks , and 3,574 open doors and gates checks.

FIRE SUPPORT The Department of Public Safety supplies the Division of
Airports with a Firefighting and Rescue Unit based at Port Columbus. The costs of maintaining this unit is paid by the Division of Airports Operating Fund.
The Airport Fire Unit manpower consists of 1 Fire Lap-tain, 8 Lieutenants, and 30 Firefighters. The maintained support equipment consists of 2 Walters Crash Trucks with water capacity of 1,500 gallons and 165 gallons of foam agent per truck, 2 Walters Crash Trucks with 1,000 gallon water capacity for reserve, 1 International Runway Foamer with 5,000 gallon water and 500 gallon Protein Foam capacity, 1 Sutphen 500 gallon standard pumper and a Dodge Aircraft Fire and Rescue Truck. All vehicles are stored in an eight bay firehouse and are each equipped with two-way Fire Department and Ground Control Radios.
All personnel assigned at the Airport Unit aside from being experienced and trained Firefighters are specially trained in crash/fire/rescue services and identifying types of aircraft, commercial and private, and each man has attended Pit Fire Training at Port Columbus. Additionally, all men are trained in Flammable Liquid Firefighting.
The Airport Fire Unit responded to 104 alerts, set-ups or fuel spills at Port Columbus in the year of 1982.
SCHEDULED AIRLINE SERVICE
Although much has been written on the continuing decline of the national economy, employment, and corporate profits, very little has been published concerning the relationship of scheduled airline passengers as an indicator of things to come. In retrospect, a summary review of past statistical data, relative to airline passengers and aircraft operations, indicated a trend toward an improving economy.
As an example of how rapidly changes now come about in the airline industry, the Airline Traffic Reports for Port Columbus reflect that in December, 1982, there were 15 air carriers operating at Port Columbus versus a total of 13 in December, 1981; however, this still does not portray the entire picture without some further footnotes:
1. Air Virginia initiated service on April 25 to Charlotte, N.C.; and Richmond and Roanoke, Va.
2. Christman Air System initiated service on August 1 to Charleston, WV; Buffalo, NY; Baltimore, MD; and Dulles Airport in Washington D.C. However, because of the continuing non-availability of air traffic control slots caused by the air traffic controllers strike in 1981, Christman attempted to add service to Indianapolis, IN., but found that the entire operation was not feasible and suspended all Columbus Service on September 30.
3. Frontier Airlines initiated new service on December 15 to Indianapolis, IN; and Denver, CO.
4. Filing were submitted to the Civil Aviation Board (C.A.B.) in August by Jet USA Airlines to initiate service between Columbus, and Orlando, FL with a proposed start-up of late November to early December. Again, because of the rapidly changing conditions in the airline industry, the company, in December, changed its named to Zenith International Airlines and dropped the Columbus-Orlando route and instituted a proposal to fly between San Jose, CA-Chicago, IL-and Rochester, NY.
A rather hasty look at passenger data for the periods of 1973-1976 and 1978-82 show similar reactions to the economy:
Year 1973 1974 1975 1976 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982
The oil crisis which began in 1973 and again became a factor in 1978-79 is a great determinant in the aviation and airline industries, and seems to be reflected in the periods following the crisis periods of 1975, and 1980-81. This report, last year, indicated a reduction in the rate of decline of passengers, and now, the subsequent increase for 1982 has revived optimism that the total passengers at Port Columbus in 1983 will pass the record year of 1979 and be the beginning of a protracted era of economic growth and stability.
FINANCIAL COMMENTARY The Division of Airports continued to be self-supporting
during 1982. No General Fund monies were received and all operating expenses as well as debt service requirements were paid from Airport receipts.
The following Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Other Charges is prepared using the accrual method of accouting except that assets acquired with operating funds are charged to cost centers during the year purchased, and debt retirement is charged to cost centers in lieu of depreciation for assets acquired with capital project funds. Charges to cost centers for the major portion of note interest paid in 1981 associated with the expansion and rebuilding project were deferred until 1982.

DIVISION OF ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION Mr. Robert C. Park inson, P.E. Director of Publ ic Service 90 West Broad Street, Room 216 Columbus, Ohio 43215
Dear Director Park inson:
Attached hereto is the Annual Repor t of the activities of this Division for 1982, in accordance with Section 231 of the City Charter.
Trends of the last several years cont inued dur ing 1982. Each year th is Division has faced dwindl ing resources, escalating costs and increasing d e m a n d s for services.
We have responded by reducing our personnel , placing greater emphas is on performance, especially by our managers, and cont inuing to refine our managemen t information systems, particularly in the areas of vehicle maintenance , damage claims and acc iden t investigations. Many of our managers are part icipat ing in the Options training program and some have become m e m b e r s of the Columbus Public Service Chapter of the National Management Association. These activities should all con t r ibu te to increased efficiency and effectiveness in the future.
For a good many years , one of our priority goals has been completion of the freeway system. Major progress was m a d e on three projects in 1982. Design work began in earnest on 1-670, the Envi ronmenta l Impac t S ta tement was approved for the Spr ing-Sandusky In te rchange and funding negotiations resulted in the schedul ing of bids for a port ion of SR 104 in 1983.
Another major concern of this Division is the general condition of the exist ing system. In 1982 we completed a number of projects in tended to protect our inves tment as well as to i m p r o v e its abi l i ty to serve t h e n e e d s of t h e publ ic . Through a combina t ion of city, s ta te and federal funds, 36.6 miles of s treets were resurfaced, 42.9 miles were surface treated and 3.3 miles were sealed with slurry. We also began construct ion on a major widen ing of West Henderson Road.
A relatively mild winter snow season relieved some strain on our operat ing budge t and allowed rout ine maintenance activities to p rogress smoothly. This was one of the few years in which we were able to comple te the entire leaf pickup schedule. More streets were swept than normal and a major program of catch basin cleaning was completed on the freeway network.
Cont inued depression of the housing industry reduced our office workload once again. The volume of plan reviews, permits, and house numbers issued were all down from previous years. This allowed our staff to do a more thorough review yet spend more t ime on design of city projects.
It is apparent that the success of this Division in the future depends upon the imagination and skills of its employees. The challenges will become tougher, resources more competitive, and change more frequent. Nevertheless, I am confident that we will survive and that Columbus will cont inue to have the finest t ransporta t ion ne twork in the state.

DIVISION OF CONSTRUCTION ANNUAL REPORT — 1982
The Division of Const ruct ion submi t s herewith its Annual Report for the Year 1982, in compl iance with Section 231 of the City Charter.
It is reiterated here that " the dut ies and responsibili t ies of the Division are to coordinate , supervise , inspect , and direct the work performed on Pr iva te and Captial Improvement contracts for the cons t ruc t ion of streets , h ighways, bridges, sewers, waterl ines, street lights, and any other City-owned or operated facility".
The sput ter ing economy had a direct negative impact on the amount of Pr ivate I m p r o v e m e n t work a t t empted during the year. With interest on h o m e loans near the mid-teens and the pr ime rate even higher, activity in the Pr ivate Section dropped drastically from 411 projects in 1981 to 300 in 1982. This Section performed ext remely well th roughout the vear as evidenced by a minimal n u m b e r of problems. The lift station and river crossing at Shire Cove is a good example of how this section can manage the work on more complicated projects.
Work on t h e Capi tal I m p r o v e m e n t P rog ram remained very active th roughou t the year and the CIP Section remained firmly engaged d u e to the City's ambi t ious program. 37 CIP projects were s tar ted dur ing the year. The ill effects of the weary economy had little effect on the business of this Section.
During the year, this Sect ion control led the work of 62 projects having a total es t imated value of 71 million dollars. 33 Projects totaling 28 million dollars were completed, thus leaving a carry-over of 29 projects into 1983.
It is interest ing to poin t ou t tha t 35 p r ime contractors were engaged by the City to perform the work on the 62 projects. The names and projects are listed in the statistical port ion of this report.
It is also no tewor thy tha t the total dollars paid on Final E s t i m a t e s for c o m p l e t e d p r o j e c t s w e r e a p p r o x i m a t e l y
$220,000 fewer than the total bid. The b reakdown shows that the total contract amoun t s were reduced by $50,000 (Water), $70,000 (Sewers and Drains) and $100,000 (Engineering).
279 Estimates were prepared and processed dur ing the year of which 39 were Finals. The average monthly pay-out on CIP projects was approximately 2.1 million dollars.
Internal audi ts were conduc ted intermit tent ly to ensure complaince of documenta t ion with Federal and State Requirements .
It is appropriate to report specifically on one operation being performed which has made great use of our nuclear density gauges. It is amazing to note that 4,381 soil density-moisture tests were taken th roughout the year. It is t ruly gratifying to have this capability which has been increased by at least 1500 per cent due to this equipment . It has had t remendous impact on the end results of compact ive efforts throughout the City.
In June , one survey crew was added to our forces in order to handle increased layout responsibil t ies and to perform final inspections and measurement s on 259 private sewer projects.
As has always been the case, the Adminis t ra t ive Section has performed with obvious skill. The knowledge, ability, and at t i tude of the personnel in this Section enables the Division to maintain operational efficiency and stability.
Every supervisor in the Division is part icipating in the Depar tment ' s managemen t training. The group is aware of — and exhibits an appreciat ion for — the t r emendous opportuni ty being m a d e available to the City's managers . The program spotlights the City's concerns in further developing its human resources.
Attached is our Table of Organization, Data Sheets for projects under our jurisdiction, and our Financial S ta tement for 1982.

Based on the best available data, the average daily tonnage for 1982 is as follows:
Alum Creek
369
Georgesville Road 306
Morse Road 279 984 tons/day
EQUIPMENT The task of refuse collection requires the use of large
amounts of equipment to service the approximately 235,446 households within the City of Columbus.
The equipment used by the Division of Sanitation consists primarily of packer trucks, which are used on assigned routes each day of the week (Monday thru Friday) and transfer trailers, which are used to transport refuse which has been brought in by the packer trucks and pulverized, to a disposal site.
Since adequate equipment is a prerequisite to the accomplishment of the assigned task of the Division of Sanitation, an equipment replacement program is being developed with the aid of the City of Columbus, Municipal Garage, to insure a reliable fleet.
Following is a listing of equipment necessary to provide our services:

DIVISION OF SEWERAGE & DRAINAGE ANNUAL REPORT—1982
the Division and it is r e commended that this policy be continued.
Over twenty-four miles of sewers were added to the sewage system and the Division cont inued to operate and maintain these sanitary, s torm and combined sewers dur ing the year. This system of sewers t ranspor ted a daily average of 134.5 million gallons of sewage to the two sewage t rea tment plants. A total of twenty- three p u m p stations, eight sanitary and fifteen storm, were necessary to keep the system operating and functional. In addit ion to providing sewage service to our own expanding corporate limits, Co lumbus has also contracted to t ranspor t and treat the sewage from thirty-three satellite districts. Uppe r Arlington remains as the only satellite district charging for sewage t r unk benefit on an acreage basis. At tached is a listing of contract entit ies and a map displaying the areas covered by these contracts .

Total revenues grew by 18.6 percent or $44.8 million while expendi tures grew by a modes t 3.5 percent or $39.5 million, 1982 revenues exceeded expendi tures by $5.3 million. The Division f inished t h e yea r $3.9 mil l ion or e ight pe rcen t under budge t caus ing a significant improvemen t in our financial position. » . „ „
The ending cash balance for 1982 rose to $16.2 million as compared with 1981's year end balance of $10.9 million. T h e unencumbered year end balance for 1982 was $11.4 million versus $5.1 million at the end of 1981, a $6.3 million increase. This large increase can be at t r ibuted to three factors: The $3.9 million budget under run ; the 18 percent growth in revenues; and a $.9 million dollar reduct ion in year-end encumbrances. The large growth in revenues was due in part to the elimination of the backlog of billings created in 1981 during conversion to the new water/sewer utility billing system.
A total of $24.5 million* was expended on the Division s capital improvements program involving over fifty projects. New contracts, change orders and other agreements entered into during the year totalled $18.5 million involving 30 projects. $20.8 million remained encumbered at the end of the year. Major construct ion contracts awarded dur ing the year included $7.7 million for the Blacklick Creek In terceptor Sewer; $3.3 mil l ion for con t r ac t 4, solar drying, Southwesterly Compost ing Facility; and $1.6 million for east Central Relief s torm and sani tary sewers . In addi t ion, b ids were received on several construct ion projects late in the year bu t were not awarded due to bid protests or other delays. These projects totalled $29.1 million. Approximate ly $21 million of the amount will be provided by the federal government .
The Division's total long-term debt for its capital improvements program s tands at $146.1 million. Pr incipal paymen t s during the year totalled $4.5 million and $5.25 million in notes were issued dur ing 1982 resul t ing in only a modes t increase in the Division's total long te rm debt dur ing the year. At year end, the Division had a total of $19.0 million in
unencumbered cash p lus un i ssued bond author i ty for sanitary sewerage sys tem i m p r o v e m e n t s . Ant ic ipated federal grants br ings the total available author i ty to $28.5 million. An addi t ional $5.5 mill ion in avai lable au thor i ty exis ts for storm sewer projects .
Beginning in 1982 all acc ident and injury leave data were entered into the payroll pe r sonne l c o m p u t e r sys tem. That system along wi th o the r p rocedura l changes has reduced claim process ing t ime. Dur ing 1982 there were 122 new injuries 68 of which involved lost t ime . Significant accompl ishments dur ing the year also inc luded formation of a Surveillance crew safety commi t t ee , b roaden ing t h e representation at the Souther ly safety commi t t ee and inspect ion on cranes in the Division.
The total author ized s t rengh for the Divison is 501 positions. At the close of 1982 t h e actual s t rength for the Division was 435 full-time employees and par t - t ime employees . There was a gradual decrease in the n u m b e r of employees within the Division as a resul t of t h e hir ing freeze. Dur ing 1982 we had 12 employees retire. O n e employee had over 40 years t enure with the City; 5 of the ret i reees had 20 or more years of service; and 4 of the ret i reees had 15 or m o r e years of service. These re t i r ements r ep resen t significant changes within the Division d u e to t h e years exper iences that these employees had given t h e Division. Many were in high level adminis tat ive posi t ions or superv isory posi t ions, which also m a d e a major impac t on t h e opera t ions of t h e Division. We do wish them all well in their re t i rement years .
Without the suppor t and coopera t ion of each and every employee of this Division and all o ther D e p a r t m e n t s and Divisions of t h e City, a n y a c c o m p l i s h m e n t s achieved would certainly have fallen far shor t of the service level to which the Divis ion con t inua l ly asp i res to prov ide and a hardy thanks and apprecia t ion goes out to all t hose people who have devoted thei r t i m e a n d efforts to t h e Division.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. Due to a miscoding of the Water/Sewer Utility Billing
System, $26,634 in ext ra s t rength revenues were credited to the wrong account , sewer service charges, in 1981. The 1981 amoun t s were not corrected in the 1981 annual report bu t have been adjusted in the 1982 report to show t h e co r r ec t a m o u n t s . To t a l 1981 r e v e n u e s w e r e no t affected by this adjus tment .
B. 1982 t ransfers and e x p e n d i t u r e s in fund 80-571 (1975 voted bond issue) inc lude $12.5 million transferred into the fund from the proceeds of the Augus t 15, 1982 $22.8 million bond sale ( improvement #22). The monies were t r a n s f e r r e d in to t h e fund to r e t i r e n o t e s i s sued on November 18, 1981 and matur ing on November 18, 1982. Since 95 days elapsed from issuance of the bonds until the notes matured , the proceeds of the bond sale were held in fund 80-571 until t he notes were retired. Expenditures from fund 80-571 therefore include the $12.5 million used to retire the notes . The conversion of notes to bonds does not normal ly appear as an expend i tu re in a capital improvemen t s bond fund since usually only a few days e lapse be tween a bond sale and re t i rement of notes. The proceeds of a bond sale are generally not deposi ted into a i m p r o v e m e n t s fund. Ret i rement of the notes from fund 80-571 caused expend i tu res in the fund to be overstated by $12.5 million as summarized in the following table:
of the anticipated federal revenues raised the unencumbered end ing ba lance in the fund to $6.8 million as shown below:

Until OWDA projects are closed, beginning and ending principal balances and principal and interest payments are est imates based on the est imated project cost and the ant icipated federal funding. Once the project is completed and the actual cost is known, the interest and principal p a y m e n t s are adjusted to reflect the actual a m o u n t f inanced. The In t e r cep to r project is not yet closed; therefore, the balances and payments shown on the Summary of OWDA Indebtedness are estimates.
DESIGN SECTION Responsibility
The functional responsibili ty of this depar tment is to plan and design the hardware and ancilliary operational facilities associated with the sanitary, combined and storm collection and t ranspor t ing sewer systems. This involves: technical a n d e n g i n e e r i n g p l a n n i n g ; a d m i n i s t r a t i v e a n d lega l documentat ion; schedul ing programs to minimize capital, opera t ing and m a i n t e n a n c e f inancial r e source commit ments ; manag ing easemen t and right-of-way acquisi t ion and release; field survey and location activities; maintaining wri t ten and graph ic records and mapp ing of our utility lines; all for the purpose of updat ing, ex tending and rehabilitating the three sewer systems.
26 DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
Organization The responsibil i ty of the depa r tmen t is carried out by
organizing the personnel into two sections. The Contract Section administers the planning, financial, contract, regulatory, outside agency and utility permits , technical standards, survey and right-of-way activities. The Plans Section administers the detail engineering reviews of public and private plans, construct ion s tandards , temporary right-of-way, agreements, record plans and mapping activities.
Stalling The personnel of this depar tment mus t have the profes
sional, t echnica l , a d m i n i s t r a t i v e a n d e x p e r i e n c e backgrounds to carry out the legal, regulatory, legislative, financial, technological and h u m a n resource p rocedures n o w being used to obtain the cur ren t level of efforts needed to accomplish depar tment and overall division goals and responsibilities.
Because of the increased n u m b e r of federal and state laws and regulations promulgated over the past five years and the resultant increased liason and cooperat ion with other governmental agencies, private corporat ions and associations and both private and public bodies and groups , our budge t submis s ions have cons is ten t ly r eques t ed a d d e d position and staffing al locations. An examina t ion of the accompanying organization char t will reveal the cur ren t positions and inter-relationship within the depar tment .
Projects The d e p a r t m e n t a w a r d e d 12 City pro jec ts for a tota l
amount of $14.1 million dollars of which 5 were separat ion projects for $6.2 million dollars and 7 were sanitary projects for $7.9 million dollars worth of construct ion.
Grants The 7.5 mile long 78 to 48-inch d iameter Blacklick Creek
Interceptor was approved by the United States Environmental Protect ion Agency for par t ic ipat ion funding of a Step 3 construction grant and the project was placed unde r construction during the second quar te r of the year. Because of varying eligibility factors the grant amoun ted to 47.5% of its total $7.3 million cost.
The Alum Creek-Minerva Park In terceptor received a 75% USEPA Step 3 funding approval and the $435,000 project was bid in November with construct ion to start in the first quarter of the new year.
Engineering Approvals D u r i n g t h e y e a r 176 s e w e r e n g i n e e r i n g p l a n s w e r e
approved with 102 being s torm plans and 74 being sanitary plans. The total 41.84 miles of new lines was composed of 11.66 new miles of storm sewers and 30.17 new miles of sanitary sewers. These were sewer plans submi t t ed from private architects and engineers , developers , proper ty owners, contractors and suburban sewerage service contract entities.
Various other City and governmenta l agencies submi t ted 58 plans requiring engineering review of their utility and facilities improvements .
Engineering Permits Street opening permits were approved for 28 various util
ity overhead and underg round engineered installat ions.
Right-oi-Way and Easments Granted and platted easements and rights-of-way for new
construction were obta ined prior to authorizing the new sanitary and s torm sewers to proceed to construct ion.
There were 25 reques ts for part ial or comple te release or vacation of dedicated rights of City proper ty associated with division sewer lines. Where possible and appropr ia te we at tempted to relieve property owners of encumberances on their land titles where a sewer was no longer needed.
Mapping A major por t ion of d ra f t ing a c t i v i t i e s th i s yea r was
directed towards correcting, expand ing , and upda t ing t h e Columbus Sewer Atlas Map System. The area of coverage was expanded by 10 square miles with 14 new maps , which increased the total n u m b e r of Atlas Maps to 336. The total length of sewers added to the Atlas Maps in 1982 was 275 miles (600 plans), which is 9.6% of the length of the ent i re system. In addition, right-of-way dra inage was added along 7.53 miles of state expressways . The ex tens ive work on the Atlas Maps was performed in order to provide Division of Sewerage and Drainage field personnel and o ther City agen-
. cies with more accurate and u p to date data on the sewerage system. In December , 90 reduced-scale Atlas books were
produced by the p lann ing sect ion records personnel to replace books p roduced two years previous .
Records Record plans were m a d e for 7.20 miles of pr ivate and pub
lic sewers, increasing the total n u m b e r of record p lans by 44 s h e e t s . M a n h o l e t o m a n h o l e d i s t a n c e m e a s u r e m e n t s obtained by Design D e p a r t m e n t survey c rews for 5.47 miles of private sani tary sewers were a d d e d to 73 exis t ing record plans. Const ruct ion inspect ion notes were used to add wye location information to 38 pr ivate sani tary sewer const ruction plans.
Summary oi Sewers Dur ing the year e n d i n g D e c e m b e r 31, 1982 the length of all
sewers c o n s t r u c t e d for p e r m a n e n t r e co rd ing in t h e Columbus sewerage sys tem totaled 24.243 miles . Of tha t total, 14.360 miles are s torm sewers and 9.883 miles are sanitary sewers . T h e a d d i t i o n of t h e s e s e w e r s to t h e C o l u m b u s sewerage sys tem increases t h e total l ength of the sys tem to 2648.320 miles of which 1594.065 miles are sani tary sewers , 813.687 miles are s torm sewers and 240,568 miles are combined sewers .

Miscel laneous act ivi t ies inc luded repa i r s t o 590 exis t ing sewers and 1012 s t ruc tures , c leaning dra inage di tches , and upgrading sani tary and s to rm p u m p s ta t ions .
FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION SECTION The pr imary responsibi l i ty of t h e Financia l Adminis t ra
tion Section is coord ina t ing t h e acquis i t ion of the resources , including funding, r equ i red to ope ra t e t h e Sewer Division. This inc ludes coord ina t ing t h e p u r c h a s e of suppl ies , materials and services and process ing p a y m e n t for same; processing the execut ion and p a y m e n t of capital i m p r o v e m e n t s contracts ; coordina t ing c u s t o m e r billing and accoun ts receivable; de l inquen t a ccoun t collection; and financial planning and budge t ing .
Other functions per formed in this sect ion inc lude operation of the Division 's supp ly /cop ie r /mai l room located in City Hall, E P A gran t accoun t ing , m a i n t e n a n c e of t h e asset inventory sys t em, gene ra l a c c o u n t i n g and bookkeep ing , and coordinat ion of the annua l suppl ies and mater ials inventory. The sect ion acts as chief liaison wi th the Division of Water regarding bill ings for sewer services and with the City Auditor 's Office and the D e p a r t m e n t of F inance regard ing financial mat te rs . Finally, t h e sect ion is respons ib le for developing annua l b u d g e t and sewer ra te proposals and for present ing the proposa ls to t h e Sewer and Water Advisory Board and City Counci l for approval .
Dur ing 1982, the sect ion opera ted wi th a staff of twelve, nine full-time e m p l o y e e s and th ree par t - t ime employees . Major accompl i shmen t s du r ing 1982 inc luded the following:
—4,678 accoun ts were certified to the Coun ty Treasurer ' s Office for collection wi th 1982 p roper ty tax bills. A total of $416,394 was certified inc lud ing $37,857 in penal ty.
—Due to au tomat ion of t h e certification process u n d e r the new Water /Sewer Utility Bill ing sys tem, significant reduct ions were m a d e in the a m o u n t of t ime requi red to comple te t h e project. An es t imated 1,000 man-hours of work were e l iminated in t h e sect ion. (The Division of Water saved an es t imated 1,200 man-hour s of over t ime as a result of the a u t o m a t e d process) .
—In July, a let ter was sen t to notify p roper ty owners of p e n d i n g cer t i f icat ion. T h e le t te r resu l ted in approximately $75,000 in p a y m e n t s prior to certification. This is the first t i m e such a not ice h a s been sent and was only possible as a resul t of au tomat ion of the certification process.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 27
—Also in July, the Division began assessing a 10 percent service charge for late paymen t of sewer bills. This generated $126,400 in addit ional income dur ing the year and has encouraged p rompte r payment of sewer bills.
—In May, a new policy, turn-off of water service for nonpayment of sewer bills, was implemented . It is estimated that this policy reduced the 1982 certification list by $500,000. As a result, t he Division received these revenues at least one year sooner than it would have had the bills been certified.
—During 1982 the Division collected over $275,000 in disp u t e d , and d e l i n q u e n t , e x t r a s t r e n g t h bil ls . Ex t r a strength bills more than six mon ths del inquent have been virtually el iminated.
—Several types of billings that were previously billed or aged (de l inquen t not ices sent) manua l ly were automated on the Water /Sewer Billing system during 1982. This has el iminated several manua l procedures and improved t h e efficiency of the bil l ing and de l inquen t notice process.
—In October 1982, the section began backbill ing county customers whose sewer lines are maintained by the City bu t w h o were n e v e r bi l led for t h e s e serv ices . The amount backbil led totalled $47,535 by year end. In addition, those accounts backbil led have been recoded on the billing sys tem so they will be properly billed in the future.
—A new sewer charge sys tem for industrial customers was implemented in 1982. The new system, which required extensive recoding of the Water/Sewer Billing System, provides a more equi table charge s t ructure for industrial surveil lance cus tomers .
—The Division received condit ional approval from the USEPA for its indirect cost proposals for 1972 through 1981. Final approval will permi t grant projects involving these years to be finaled, and will allow the Division to satisfy three audi t repor ts that ruled against the Division due to lack of an approved indirect cost proposal.
—The section installed a word processing system dur ing the year. Use of the sys tem has greatly reduced the turna round t ime requ i red for o rd inances , con t rac t s and other document s .
—The section part icipated in the development of an automated inventory sys tem for federally funded property.
—During 1982, the section cont inued to develop and refine financial analysis t echn iques on its microcomputer. A new rate model was developed that allows alternate rate proposals to be calculated in less than an hour. Manual calculation of a l ternate proposals took up to a week. Other sys tems developed dur ing the year have enhanced operat ing and capital improvements budget development , the quar ter ly budge t review process, and note sale r equ i rements analysis.
—The 1983 sewer rate increase for residential inside-city
cus tomer was held to only 2.4 percent . During 1983, a major goal of the Financial Administrat ion
Section will be the deve lopmen t of policy and procedural manuals for purchas ing and accounts receivable. Another important goal will be the cont inued deve lopment and refinement of account ing and financial managemen t procedures and capabili t ies including improved documenta t ion and record keeping and e n h a n c e m e n t of the transfer and coordination of financial data be tween the Financial Administration Sect ion and the rest of the Division. A final goal will be to keep the 1983 sewer rate increase below the rate of inflation.
SEWER PERMIT OFFICE The Pe rmi t Sec t ion was sepa ra t ed as an i ndependen t
operating section of the Division in mid-1979. The Pr imary responsibilities of the Pe rmi t Sect ion are the issuance of permits for; connect ion of new sewers to the exist ing sewer system, the repairs necessary to k e e p the system operational, the inspection of this sewer const ruct ion to insure compliance with City Codes and Specifications and the collection and account ing of the various fees and charges due the City relating to this type of work. The Permi t Section also administers all subu rban contrac tura l agreements for the use of the City's sewer system.
A total of 1412 permits were issued for construct ion and repair of sewer services, 143 Construct ion Inspect ion Deposits were received for s t andby inspect ion of private storm and sani tary sewers . T h e tota l a m o u n t received by this office dur ing 1982 was $1,253,343.55 for the various fees due on the permits issued, in addi t ion $277,338.00 was received and deposi ted to the Division of Const ruct ion 's s t andby inspection fund.
Oi the 1412 permits issued by this office there were: 56 for repairs to existing sewers, a 364% increase; 1186 for residential connections, a 41% decrease; and, 137 for commercial and industrial connections, a 4% decrease, all as related to an average year. The 364% increase for permits issued for repairs is again due to the fact that more repair work is done under permit.
During 1982 the Permit Section Accomplished the Following Goals:
—Completed inspection and work with private contractor on the first group of catch basin cleaning contracts.
—Implemented second year of catch basin cleaning contracts, reorganized the areas to be cleaned and trained Construction Division personnel in inspection procedures for the projects.
—Considerable t ime and effort was expended working with the Division of Bui lding Regulations to reduce sewer back-up problem areas and the development of new inspection techniques to reduce s tormwater inlets into the sanitary sewer system.
—Investigated possible applications for Data Processing, Word Processing and Microfilming for use in the Section's activities.
—Developed new procedures in conjunct ion with the Sewer Charge Office to verify billing of monthly rental at correct rates.
—Developed new accessing system by job code for files kept in storage to make use of these records easier and quicker.
The following graph indicates the relationship of permits issued to the passage of t ime for three areas. First a 10-year average curve, second the curve reflecting 1981 permits issued and finally a curve for 1982.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT SECTION During 1982, the staff of the Technical Suppor t Section
consisted of two Professional Engineers, one Engineer-in-Training, a Plant Operation and Maintenance Training Coordinator , a Wastewater Soil Appl ica t ions Coordina tor , a Clerk and a Steno-Clerk.
The primary areas of responsibili t ies lie within the areas of p repara t ion of Opera t ion and Main tenance Manuals , operator training, coordination of the City's Land Application Program, and the coordination of the planning, design and construction of the wastewater t rea tment and composting facilities. Routine, daily, specific areas of responsibilities of the staff cont inued to be to receive, review and evaluate wastewater t reatment plant, composting, and land application data and insure the EPA monitor ing requirements were complied with.

tion 7. Contract 172—Emergency Waterline Improvemen t s 8. Plant Security Sys tem 9. Waste Activated Sludge Centrifuge Installation
Surveillance Laboratory 1. Surveillance Sect ion Storage Facility Activities on these projects included review of all con
struction plans and specifications by staff and t h e t r ea tmen t facility involved; coordinat ion of the b idding process, review by Contract Compl iance Office, Ohio Envi ronmenta l Protection Agency and the Corps of Engineers , a t tending all progress meetings on active const ruct ion projects and review and resolution of all ques t ions that arise dur ing construction.
In addition to the various activities on these projects, the Technical Suppor t staff has worked wi th consul t ing engineers to develop the following, which are being used on design and construct ion projects at the was tewater treatment plants and compost ing facility.
1) general specifications, 2) s tandard engineering agreements , 3) definition of responsibil i t ies of consul tants , Sewerage
and Drainage, and inspect ion dur ing design and construction,
4) scheduling of design and construct ion projects, 5) guidelines for providing s tar t-up services, and 6) procedure for change orders on construct ion projects. The Technical Suppor t staff has also par t ic ipated in va
rious in-house studies, one of which conduc ted and analyzed pressure tests on a six inch cast iron pipe p u m p i n g (via Moyno P u m p ) raw and anaerobically digested s ludge cake at the Jackson P ike Wastewater Trea tmen t Plant .
Land Application Program Bio-Rich (digested sewage sludge) has been recycled to
cropland as a fertilizer since April, 1979. The program was initiated by the City when it was recognized that land application of sewage s ludge is an envi ronmenta l ly acceptable and cost effective method of operat ion. In addit ion, directives issued by the United States Envi ronmenta l Protect ion Agency in an Env i ronmen ta l I m p a c t S t a t e m e n t in Ju ly 1979, stressed that the City rely 100% on land applicat ion and compost ing of sewage as an ul t imate disposal me thod
During the last three (3) years , the City of Co lumbus has been cooperat ing with The Ohio Farm Bureau Deve lopment Corporation (OFBDC) in a demons t ra t ion project funded by the United Sta tes Env i ronmen ta l Pro tec t ion Ageny. The City of Co lumbus funded the haul ing and spreading of Bio-Rich as their part in the program.
The Ohio F a r m Bureau has been the legislature a rm of the Ohio farmer for many years . This a t t r ibu te has allowed Columbus the oppor tun i ty to deve lop a rappor t with the local farm c o m m u n i t y and to es tabl ish a land appl icat ion program which is accep tab le to the publ ic . Over 50 farm families pa r t i c ipa t ed in t h e d e m o n s t r a c t i o n projec t , half as s ludge receiving farms and half as control farms (non-sludge receiving). H u m a n s and an imals were sampled regularly for blood and stool samples ; an imals were s laughtered for testing of muscle , liver, k idney and blood meta l levels; soils and crops were sampled and tes ted for meta l and P C B up take and yield. All repor t s to da te indicate no difference in all results t aken from control farms (non-sludge receiving) and sludge receiving farms. T h e final r epor t should be completed by the Fall of 1983. Detai ls of the s tudies are available from the Technical S u p p o r t staff.
During the past th ree (3) years , Bio-Rich was land applied in four local count ies ; F rank l in , P ickaway , Madison and Fairfield. A total of 96,115 wet tons of Bio-Rich was spread over 3,746 acres in th is t h ree year period, at an es t imated first year value of $30 per acre. Actual hau l ing and spreading costs to the City a m o u n t e d to approx ima te ly $430 per acre.
The contract wi th S an L Fertilizer expi red in November , 1982. Bids for a two year cont rac t were t aken in December and it is ant ic ipated that t h e new p rogram will be init iated in early 1983. The City's object ives in future land appl icat ion programs are:
1. To imp lemen t a p rogram to utilize Bio-Rich as a fertilizer on farmland,
2. To insure that a con t inuous land appl ica t ion p rogram is envi ronmenta l ly acceptable , and
3. To p r o v i d e t h e Ci ty w i th a cos t effect ive d i sposa l al ternat ive which is publ ic ly acceptable .
Monitoring and Report The Techn ica l S u p p o r t c ler ical staff h a s con t inued to
monitor and log t h e daily opera t ions of both was tewater t rea tment p lants and the compos t ing facility. The month ly N P D E S moni tor ing repor t s from each p lant are reviewed each m o n t h for cons is tency and submi t t ed to OPEA. Weekly reports are also p repa red for the L a n d Appl icat ion Prog ram and a re gene ra l ly s u b m i t t e d to O E P A eve ry t w o weeks . A m o n t h l y r e p o r t is p r e p a r e d and s u b m i t t e d to OEPA by staff for the compos t i ng facility.
SOUTHWESTERLY COMPOST FACILITY 1982 was a good year for the C o l u m b u s Compos t Facility,
it was a year which saw the s tar t -up of our marke t ing program for our final p roduc t . It was a year which saw the hiring of addi t ional pe rsonne l and con t inued const ruct ion, both geared toward m a k i n g the C o l u m b u s Compos t Facility one of the finest in the count ry . Dur ing 1982, over 300 visitors toured this facility, school g roups , vocat ional schools , conservation groups , local ci t izens and cit izens from India, Canada, China and J a p a n . All found compos t ing to be an effective and a t t rac t ive m e a n s of w a s t e w a t e r s ludge disposal.
I would like to h ighl ight s o m e of the significant events that directly relate to t h e overall success of the compos t ing operation in 1982:
1. Hiring eight (8) addi t ional opera tors and one (1) mechanic.
2. Receiving six (6) Trojan F r o n t e n d loaders in J anua ry . 3. Comple t ion of Cont rac t # 3 . 4. Star t -up and 95% comple t ion of Cont rac t #4 . 5. City personnel a t t end ing t h e Nat ional Conference on
the Compos t ing of Munic ipal and Indus t r ia l S ludges held in Washington, D.C.
6. Star t -up of marke t ing p rogram and pass ing out samples of COM-TILL at the Ohio S ta te Fair.
7. Approval of Cont rac t # 5 by the E P A to comple te the facility.
8. Overall good publ ic re la t ions wi th the local c o m m u n ity.
With the hir ing of addi t iona l pe rsonne l , giant s t r ides were taken in moving toward a comple t e well- trained facility. The addit ion of n e w e q u i p m e n t such as front-end loaders , stacking conveyors combined wi th t h e new paved areas for storage and dry ing of mater ia l w e r e also con t r ibu t ing factors. At the Compos t Conven t ion in Washington , D . C , new ideas were d iscussed and in tour ing o the r c o m p o s t opera t ions it was proven tha t the C o l u m b u s C o m p o s t Facil i ty is on the r ight t r ack . Ci ty p e r s o n n e l p r e s e n t e d a p a p e r on Cold Weather Compos t ing wh ich was very well received. Numerous and f requent inqui r ies are cons tan t ly being received for information from eng ineer ing firms conce rn ing compos t ing

from all over the country. In shar ing our experiences, we are greatly aiding the development of this field in other parts of the country.
The Columbus Compost ing Facility has generally been accepted in the local communi ty . Very few complaints concerning this operation have been received since start-up and we are constantly seeking self-improvement in our operation. News coverage in media both electronic and printed has generally been positive. The public response to our film on compost ing and the passing out of samples at the Ohio State Fair was ext remely well received. A slide presentat ion and talk on compos t ing by Bob Smith and myself was very warmly received by t h e C o l u m b u s Chapte r of t h e Rose Growers Society, the overall resul t s indicate that many citizens are interested in using our final product . The City of Columbus working in conjunct ion with the Ohio and Federal EPA is developing a produc t un ique to this part of the country. A product useful in soil condi t ioning and landscaping, a product rich in mirco-nutr iants , a product which helps conserve energy, not deple te energy.
Coordination of this operat ion and the on-going construction since initial s tart-up in Ju ly of 1980 would have been impossible wi thout the cooperat ion of all parties concerned. Complete General Construct ion Company, Malcom Pirnie and Burgess & Niple Ltd., our consul t ing engineers and the Technical Suppor t Sect ion played major roles in the continued deve lopment of th is facility. I would also like to thank the managemen t and staffs of the Super in tendent ' s Office, Souther ly Wastewater Plant , Jackson P ike Wastewater Plant , Sewer Ma in t enance , Surve i l l ance Sect ion, Finance Section and Business Office, all of which played key roles in the overall success of this operation.
At any work site the implementa t ion of policy and utilization of procedures would be useless wi thout the positive support and close at tent ion to detail tha t comes from working with good men and women . They are the ones who make this operation a success or failure, they provide the flexibility to change and adapt to the si tuation. In that vein, I owe a debt of grat i tude to my clerk, my operators and my mechanics who provided 365 opera t ing days for this facility in 1982.

SURVEILLANCE SECTION The primary function of the Surveillance Section is to
monitor the sewerage system and its contributors for the purpose of protecting the system, the t reatment works, and ultimately the receiving stream. The section accomplishes this responsibi l i ty th rough a field sampl ing group , and analytical laboratory, a sewer charge office, and an administrative staff. The administrat ive staff bears the additional responsibility for assuring that the Division is aware of applicable federal and state programs. Among these are federally mandated extra-s trength charges and industrial pre-treatment regulations.
The section was established in 1976 and has grown as needs developed and facilities became available. The section moved into its new facility in May of 1980 and currently employs 25 people, 4 of whom are located at the sewer charge office. This new operations base has provided the section with a consolidated and more convenient location, greatly needed operations space, and freedom from reliance on commercial laboratories.
FIELD SAMPLING GROUP The field sampling group's activities for 1982 included col
lecting of industr ial wastes samples from about 40 companies on a regular basis for re-evaluation of their extra-s t r e n g t h cha rges . Ex t r a s t r e n g t h cha rges are a ssessed against non-residential dischargers whose waste costs the Division more to treat than a waste from the "average" residential user. This is t h e "user charge" system and is a federal mandate . Rout ine re-evaluation of each company is necessary due to fluctuation in characteristics of discharges.
Additional field activity involved collection of samples from industries that have the potential to violate Columbus ' sewer use ordinance. These samples are a policing measure to help insure no one discharges substances which could be harmful to the system. About 80 companies are evaluated on a routine basis for extra strength, sewer use, or for both needs. Field operations also include collection of sewerage system samples to help pinpoint unidentified sources of pollutants (e.g., cadmium) including those that might be detrimental to the City's s ludge disposal program.
LABORATORY The labora tory work load , on the basis of pa r ame te r s
analyzed, increased 24% over 1981 levels. The laboratory analyzed 6413 samples for 37,940 parameters in 1982. These samples were 40% industrially related, 28% routine treatment plant analyses, 21% general Division testing such as river runs, compost and technical suppor t generated samples, and 11% from miscellaneous sources.
Other major 1982 accompl ishments included: Developing and implement ing an analytical procedure for
PCB's (polychlorinated biphenyls) in sludges. Analyzing samples from a system wide survey to deter
mine point source discharges of cadmium. Developing and implement ing an analytical technique for
Salmonella in sludges as an indicator of compost ing efficiency.
Analyzing samples from a survey to determine levels of phenols on our collection system, t rea tment plants , and
Implement ing rout ine TOC (total organic carbon) analyses as a confirmation of other sewage s t rength analyses, and partial replacement for COD.
Analyzing samples from a large scale nitrification study at the Southerly Wastewater Trea tment Plant.
SEWER CHARGE OFFICE During 1982 some of the major accompl ishments of this
office were: 1. Began checking all water only accounts in Columbus
water system, including suburbs , to verify they are correctly coded as sewer-exempt accounts .
2. Reviewed billing registers to de termine that accounts coded for sewer were assessed proper sewer charges.
3. Remodeled offices to achieve a better working environment and promote office efficiency.
4. Assumed full responsibili ty for billings for scavenger was te hau le r p rogram (previously held by F inance Office.)

PRETREATMENT PROGRAM Federal requirements for the deve lopment of a pretreat-
ment program to regulate industrial d ischarges has been under development by a contractor with 75% payment by Federal Grant. The contractor has worked on this program during 1981 and 1982. Reports have been submi t ted to the Ohio EPA for review on discharger inventory, technical information, and monitor ing and enforcement . It is expec ted that Columbus will probably b e des ignated as a "control Authority" for the regulation of U S E P A pre t rea tment program in 1983. It does not appear at this t ime that the "control authority" designation will require major changes in Columbus operational requi rements .
The Federal program regulatory p re t r ea tmen t did progress in 1982 by promulgat ion of a n u m b e r of categorial indus t ry p r e t r e a t m e n t s t a n d a r d s . C o l u m b u s i n d u s t r i e s affected are primari ly e lect roplaters and metal finishers. Electroplaters not presently in compl iance are being monitored to a t tempt to obtain compliance by their April 1984 deadl ine . Other i n d u s t r i e s in C o l u m b u s a re e i t he r no t affected by categorical p re t rea tment l imits or the affect has not yet been fully determined.
JACKSON PIKE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT D u r i n g 1982 t h e a v e r a g e p r e c i p i t a t i o n i n c r e a s e d by
approximately 4% as compared to that which occurred in 1981. The average daily flow increased approximate ly 5% due primarily to the increased rainfall. The BOD 5 concentration decreased approximately 4%; whereas , the suspended solids concentrat ion decreased approximate ly 11 percent . The overall efficiency of the plant, in t e rms of B O D 5 and suspended solids removal, remained essentially the same as that experienced in 1981. The total populat ion equivalent of the treated sewage remained approximate ly the same as that experienced dur ing 1981. The operat ing and maintenance personnel allocations were identical to that of 1981.
Of primary impor tance dur ing 1982 was the energy situation within the plant. New measures were t aken to assure that all available digester gas was used and a m i n i m u m of gas was wasted. Due to the previously establ ished goals of reducing the fuel oil consumpt ion in the plant, the fuel oil consumpt ion d ropped by approx ima te ly 32% in 1982 as compared to 1981. The use of na tura l gas increased d u e to the fact that sufficient sewer gas was not always available to operate the incinerators. It is hoped that when the present digester and gas s torage facilities design and const ruct ion is completed that the total a m o u n t of sewer gas p roduced will increase and the dependency upon fuel oil and natural gas will be decreased.
All cons t ruc t ion work assoc ia ted wi th Con t rac t 160— Primary Sludge Withdrawal Facilities was comple ted during 1982. C o n s t r u c t i o n w o r k w a s in i t i a t ed on t h e Ba r Screens Rehabili tat ion and Water Supp ly Improvemen t s . At the t ime of this writing, the Water Supp ly I m p r o v e m e n t s have been completed and the Bar Screens Facility s tands at approximately 30% complet ion.
During 1982 extensive design work cont inued on a new Concentrated Waste Activated S ludge Centrifuge Facility improvements to the Plant High Voltage Electrical Sys tem ' Rehabilitation of the P lan t Well Water and the City Water System, improvements to the P lan t Communica t ions Sys
tem, Rehabil i ta t ion of the Engine Genera to r Stat ion and improvements to t h e Anaerobic Digest ion Sys tem and Gas Storage Sys tem. It is hoped that the design work with respect to these above projects can be comple ted dur ing 1983 and that necessary funding will be available to carry out these sorely needed improvemen t s .
Once again, s t rong suppor t was given to the p lant from the various suppor t sect ions wi th in the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. In part icular , the Bus iness Office, Technical Support , and the F inance Sect ion have been very efficient and suppor t ive . T h e S u p e r i n t e n d e n t ' s Office, as has been the case in the past , has been very suppor t ive and has many t imes gone to great ex t r emes to see tha t the necessi t ies at the plant are provided for. As is a lways t h e case, and especially dur ing the last year, the efficiency exper ienced at the plant was due pr imari ly to the individual employees in each section within the plant . Wi thout t he se people the operat ion and successful t r ea tmen t of was tewa te r at the 40 year old Jackson P ike Wastewater T r e a t m e n t P lan t would be impossible. The opera t ions , m a i n t e n a n c e and adminis t ra t ive personnel at J a c k s o n P i k e have p roven themse lves to be professional and dedica ted employees in every sense. The employees I deal wi th on a daily basis have been ex t remely support ive and have carr ied out the i r du t ies in an except ional manner , even w h e n compared to the i r past high standards .

SOUTHERLY WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
During 1982 the average daily flow and loadings to the plant were similar to 1981. There was an average daily increase in flow of 2.5 million gallons per day. The BOD 5 and suspended solids concen t ra t ion remained essentially the same as 1981. The BOD and suspended solids removal efficiency remained at a high 96% for BOD and 96.2% for suspended solids.
D u r i n g 1982 we w e r e ab l e to p r o c e s s a p p r o x i m a t e l y 12,200,000 gals, of backlogged waste activated sludge along with our daily product ion of waste activated sludge, which was accompl i shed in pa r t by increased s ludge handl ing facilities, par t icular ly centr i fuges and compos t facilities. S ludge cake d rynes s from t h e centrifuges was increased from an average of 14-16% to 18-20% range.
A follow-up training session for incinerator operators was conducted in March, th is along with main tenance training on burner repair and ad jus tment has improved incinerator efficiency and run t ime. Fuel oil used in gals, per t ib if wet caje vyrbed was reduced by 36%.
The north ash lagoon was cleaned by the George Igel, Co. and returned to service.
The operat ing s tems were installed on the six (6) raw sewage p u m p inlet sluice gates by Davis McKee, contractors . The installation of a new centrifugal blower was completed and put into service at cen te r aeration control center. A chlorine container, hand l ing and leak repair seminar was conducted by a P .B.&S. chemical co. representat ive dur ing the year. A s tudy was initiated to reduce the ammonia nitrogen concentrat ion in the effluent to less than 1.0 mg/1 by Will iam B a k e r of B r u n d a g e , B a k e r a n d S tauf fe r L td . consulting firm.
Contract #16, Screen room heat ing and venti lat ion modification was bid and awarded to J. A. Guy, Inc. of Dublin, Ohio. The emergency genera tors that operate the inlet sluice gates at the inlet sewer, were relocated west of the screen room in a new shelter. The design, construct ion and relocation was performed by in-house personnel at a substantial monetary savings to the city.
During 1982 there was a 7% reduct ion in K.W.H. of electricity used.
A high level of efficiency was once again mainta ined during the year 1982.
I am grateful for the valuable guidance and assistance I received from the Super in tendent ' s office, Business office, F inance Sec t ion , Techn ica l S u p p o r t , Surve i l l ance and Southwesterly Compost sections.
I deeply appreciate the suppor t and cooperation I have received from all office, Laboratory, Operations and Maintenance personnel of the Souther ly Wastewater Treatment Plant, without their help this could not have been accomplished.

DIVISION OF ELECTRICITY ANNUAL REPORT—1982
REFUSE/COAL-FIRED MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC PLANT
With the excep t ion of some landscaping, the ou tward appearance of the Refuse/Coal-Fired Munic ipal Electr ic Plant (R/CFMEP) was essentially completed by the close of 1982.
The plant office area was completed and occupied, and the Division staffing was expanded by approximately 40 new Power Plant employees. By the year 's end, all major plant equipment had been installed, and much of this equipment had also been turned over to the Power P lan t staff for operation and maintenance.
The first fire was lighted in "Boiler A" on December 16, by Mayor Tom Moody, Service Director Rober t Park inson, Supe r in tenden t Henry Bell, and a host of ass i s tan ts . This accomplishment designated the first real s tep in the progression of "star t ing" the Plant .
The on-site Shredder Station was also comple ted in 1982. An initial trail of the shredders on approximate ly 30 tons of refuse was successfully completed, with a "full load" test scheduled in early 1983. The Coal Receiving Stat ion was completed, and over 12,000 tons of coal had been delivered by the year's end.
With the const ruct ion nearly complete , the only major work to be cont inuing was in the control wiring and the piping systems.
ENGINEERING The Engineering Staff Worked on a variety of projects
dur ing 1982. These projects varied from resident ia l customer services to ass is t ing wi th the cons t ruc t ion of the 138KV Transmission Line. The following is a partial list of customer services that were engineered in 1982.

CUSTOMER ACCOUNTING During 1982, an Appl icant Data Base was established to
facilitate the hiring process of the Trash Burning Power Plant.
90,170 energy cus tomer bills were produced and 3,816 new c o n t r a c t s w e r e p r o c e s s e d , r e p l a c i n g 3,589 f ina l ized accounts, and 256 Senior Citizen 10% discounts were issued
We implemented a new version of the inventory and finance Data Base. This allowed for input of s tandard modules to aid Engineer ing in es t imat ing new construction and
street lighting projects. Many new reports were produced to aid the users and management in making decisions. The new e n h a n c e m e n t s allow appropr ia t ions to be input in order that we may keep a running total of expendi tures and balances. The system supports the City's financial accounting structure. Programs are constantly being improved as Division needs are identified.

DIVISION OF TRAFFIC ENGINEERING AND PARKING ANNUAL REPORT—1982
The Division of Traffic Engineer ing and Parking , Department of Public Service, submits herewith its Annual Repor t for the year ending December 31, 1982.
Faced with ever-increasing costs of material and labor as well as increased demands for addi t ional services from the public which we serve, this Division is meet ing the challenge. A highly-skilled managerial staff is constant ly seeking further self-improvement through part icipat ion in the Columbus Publ ic Service Chapter of t h e Nat ional Management Associa t ion . Re f inemen t s r esu l t ing theref rom are apparent in our day-to-day progress.
During 1982, a detailed analysis of the congest ion and delay problems in the area of 1-71 and S.R. 161 was under t aken by our staff. Presenta t ion of the resul ts and al ternat ives was made to other agencies late in the year and implementa t ion is hoped for in 1983.
The Division coordinated two consul tant s tudies of traffic access du r ing 1982. T h e Mt. Vernon Plaza Area Traffic Study recommended several ways of increasing access into this area. The North High Street (U.S. 23) s tudy of access controls developed a plan for allowing safe access to land being developed adjacent to this highway.
Field installation of the Arterial Coordinat ion Project for Henderson Road, Hamil ton Road and Refugee Road was completed in 1982. F ine tun ing of the sys tem began in the later part of the year and will cont inue th rough 1983. The flexibility of the system resul ted in a considerably smoother flow of traffic a round the East land S h o p p i n g Center du r ing the busy Chris tmas season that was not iced by many shoppers and merchants .
Residential Permi t Park ing , as inst i tuted both in the German Village area and the NECKO area jus t south of the Ohio State University, cont inues to work qui te well and is solving the problems which it sought to solve. In 1982, the NECKO Area was expanded and a third area has pet i t ioned to be designated as a Residential Pe rmi t Pa rk ing Area.
An inc rease in t h e n u m b e r of pa rk ing me te r s on t h e streets, in addit ion to a modification of t h e ra te scale re
sulted in revenues from tha t source increas ing nearly 31% over 1981.
I believe the Staff of the Division of Traffic Engineer ing and Park ing has the exper t i se , the capabil i ty and the desire to carry on the process we have been mak ing . We stand ready to meet t h e chal lenge of 1983 firm in our c o m m i t t m e n t to improve the lot of t h e moto r ing publ ic and p ledge our cont inued coopera t ion and suppo r t for the year ahead.
MISSION STATEMENT The mission of t h e Division of Traffic Engineer ing and
Parking is to plan and provide for t h e safe, efficient and economic m o v e m e n t of peop le and goods t h roughou t the City of Co lumbus . The Divis ion 's p r imary cus tomer s are the citizens of C o l u m b u s inc lud ing motor is ts , pedes t r ians , developers and cont rac tors .
Areas of significant c h a n g e in the last 5 to 10 years include more sophis t ica ted technology , especial ly in traffic signal control and p a v e m e n t mark ing areas , increased awareness of legal l iabil i ty, m o r e e n v i r o n m e n t a l c o n c e r n s and imp r o v e m e n t s r ega rd ing e m p l o y e e s ' m a n a g e m e n t capabilities. Areas of change for t h e n e x t 5 to 10 years likely will involve inc reased financial accountab i l i ty , add i t iona l increases in the level of t echnology and decrease in levels of funding. Pr inc ipa l economic conce rns involve the possible reduct ion of funds c o m b i n e d wi th increas ing costs . The critical issues are t h e mos t efficient uti l ization of resources and the effective u s e of t h e cost cen te r concep t .

THE SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SECTION The Systems Engineering Sect ion directs its efforts to
ward making travel quicker, safer and more efficient for the 634,000 motorists who use the street system of the City of Columbus each day and 221,000 daily freeway users . These motorists travel an est imated 8.1 million miles daily. The 20 office employees of this Sect ion a s sume four major areas of responsibility; signal systems, freeway operat ions, data processing and computerized systems.
Signal Systems The Signal System Group de termines the desirability of
and designs new traffic signal installations, rehabil i tates existing installations, de termines if exist ing signals are still warranted and maintains signal t iming and coordinat ion of 750 traffic signals in the City of Columbus . A schedule of 1982 accomplishments and expendi tu res of the Group are detailed in Exhibi t "A". In addit ion to the numerous signal removals and ins ta l la t ions a c c o m p l i s h e d last year, th is group completed the replacement of two major controller equipment lines that were obsolete and creat ing maintenance headaches. The new equ ipmen t is among the most up-to-date and reliable high-tech equ ipmen t available utilizing the microprocessor. This equ ipmen t allows for a more efficient and cost effective operation.
Freeway Operations The Freeway Operat ions Group is responsible for main
taining a high level of operational efficiency on 43 miles of high type roadway. They are also responsible for the maintenance of all signs, sign lighting and pavement mark ings on the freeway system. In 1982 major projects included: I) A major revision in lane ass ignments , s igning and mark ing at the 1-670 and S.R. 315 interchange; 2) Prepared plans and specifications for three addit ional r a m p meter ing controllers.
Data Processing The Data Processing Group main ta ins the Division's com
puterized records and provides a data analysis service to all Sections. In addition, they are responsible for the Division's invoicing, inventory control, and assist in statistical analysis as needed. In 1982 major projects included: 1) Deve lopment of electrical use analysis for all 750 signalized intersect ions; 2) Developed an inventory program for large freeway signs; 3) Developed a work schedul ing p rogram for shop work.
Computerized Systems The Computerized Sys tems Group is responsible for oper
ating 136 signalized intersect ions which are unde r the control of two i n d e p e n d e n t traffic c o m p u t e r s . They are responsible for mainta ining a high level of traffic control in the Downtown and Nor th land areas, and will be responsible for the design, construct ion and operat ion of all expans ions of the existing systems.
THE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING SECTION The Transportat ion P lann ing Sect ion in 1982 cont inued
its sys temat ic review, s t u d y and p lann ing of the pub l ic street network in Columbus . This work is divided into two areas of responsibili ty. First, t he exis t ing street sys tem is cont inuous ly reviewed for concen t r a t i on of traffic accidents, and studied to de te rmine the effect of increased access and traffic volumes from adjacent land deve lopmen t becond , the future r eq u i r emen t s of s t reets , pa rk ing and other surface t ranspor ta t ion sys tems are cont inuous ly being reviewed with many publ ic agencies and private develop-

Accident Reduction Programs During 1982, the P l a n n i n g Sect ion con t inued its traffic
safety p rograms as follows: 1. In our safety project evaluat ion program, five before
and after acc ident reduc t ion s tud ies were comple ted . 2. Reviewed high-accident locat ions for the possible ap
plication of traffic acc ident coun te rmeasu re s . Analyzed and p repared repor t s at four such locat ions.
3. Init iated the Accident Task Force . T h e Task Force reviewed and analyzed the "Top 20" acc ident locations to find engineer ing and enforcement solut ions, and will also review all fatal acc ident repor ts .
Zoning and Variance Cases All reques t s for changes in t h e official zoning m a p and
requests for special pe rmi t s or var iances to t h e zoning code are reviewed by the P l ann ing Sect ion. In those cases where the requests might adverse ly affect traffic flow or pedes t r ian safety, detai led s tudies are m a d e and t h e resul ts p resen ted to the Deve lopment Commiss ion and/or t h e Board of Zoning A d j u s t m e n t . D u r i n g 1982, 211 s p e c i a l p e r m i t s and variances and 104 reques t s to c h a n g e t h e official zoning m a p were reviewed by the P l a n n i n g Sect ion, inc luding a 300 acre site at Hayden R u n Road and Dubl in Road which included the relocation of Dubl in Road. Also a 200 acre site at 1-270 and North High Street .
Building and Parking Lot Plans Bui lding p lans are referred by t h e Division of Zoning to
the P lanning Sect ion for review and approval . Driveway permits are referred to the Sect ion before approval by the City Engineer . The p u r p o s e of t h e review is to ensure that new d e v e l o p m e n t s will min imize conges t ion on abu t t ing public streets , and will p rovide for safe m o v e m e n t of vehicles and pedes t r ians to and from the pub l ic ways . In 1982, the P lanning Sect ion rev iewed 439 bui ld ing and pa rk ing lot plans.
Major Street Construction Projects The P lann ing Sect ion coord ina tes t h e Division input into
prel iminary geomet r ic des ign of s treet i m p r o v e m e n t projects. Detailed review and c o m m e n t s on consu l tan t ' s p lans are done in coopera t ion wi th the Division of Engineer ing and Const ruct ion . In 1982, t h e following projects were reviewed:
• Spr ing /Sandusky I n t e r c h a n g e and 315 Connec to r • Schrock Road—1-71 to Cleveland A v e n u e • Wilson Road—W. Broad to 1-70 • 1-670 • S.R. 104
Land Subdivision Plats All land subdivis ion pla ts are reviewed to ensu re p roper
street layout and access . T h e major e m p h a s i s of the review is to ensure access cont ro l on arterial s t reets , and to ensure the proper locat ions of col lector s t reets . Th is Sect ion reviewed 32 subdivis ion pla ts in 1982.
Construction Design Review All cons t ruc t ion p lans for pub l ic i m p r o v e m e n t s (streets,
water lines, sewers , etc.) a re s u b m i t t e d to t h e Traffic Engineering Division for review and approval . The P lann ing Section coord ina tes th is review wi th in the Division. The plans are reviewed to e n s u r e tha t they mee t safe design standards , and to provide for t h e m a i n t e n a n c e of traffic dur ing construct ion. In 1982, 204 cons t ruc t ion p lans were s tudied.

Spot Improvement Programs During 1982, cooperat ive efforts were cont inued with the
City Engineer to improve hazardous and/or congested locations th roughout C o l u m b u s . F u n d i n g sources which are being used include the Federal Aid Urban System funds at 75% pa r t i c ipa t ion , 90% F e d e r a l funds u n d e r the High-Hazard Safety Program.
The following locations are unde r s tudy for major street improvement:
1. S.R. 161 and 1-71 2. Refugee and Winchester P ike 3. Cleveland and Morse 4. Morse and High 5. Broad and J a m e s 6. Demorest and Sull ivant 7. Johns town and Nelson 8. Cleveland and S.R. 161 9. Main and Nelson
Traffic Volume Data A traffic vo lume coun t file is mainta ined in the Planning
Section con ta in ing data m e a s u r e d over the past several years on all major s treets and freeways in Columbus and surrounding areas. This data is extensively used by this Division, other governmenta l agencies and the public.
More than 700 new counts were added to the vo lume file in 1982.
THE OPERATIONS SECTION The Operat ions Sect ion is generally responsible for the
design, instal la t ion, m a i n t e n a n c e and remova l of traffic signs and pavement mark ings on City streets. It mus t ensure a d e q u a t e s u p p l i e s of m a t e r i a l s ; m o d e r n , re l iab le equipment ; and safe working condi t ions for crews to perform the work. The Sect ion also mainta ins records of such installations and wri tes material and equ ipmen t specifications.
Also, a par t of Opera t ions ' dut ies is installation of traffic controls for special events , and supervis ion of traffic controls in construct ion areas.
Investigations F o u r full-t ime I n v e s t i g a t o r s c h e c k e d over 1,300 com
plaints from the general publ ic , and m a d e replies to all of the complainants .
Pavement Markings Paint and thermoplas t ic mark ings were applied to streets
and freeways to define proper traffic pa t terns for both vehicles and pedest r ians . This a m o u n t e d to over 28,200 gallons of paint, over fifty-nine tons of thermoplas t ic material, and over eighty-eight tons of reflective glass beads .
Signing In maintaining the more then 80,000 signs on City streets,
sign crews performed 13,745 sign operat ions . The operat ions included removals , rep lacements , repairs and installations.
Sign Inspection and Upgrading Recognizing the needs for a systemat ic and on-going pro
gram of sign inspect ion, and realizing that this would not be feasible wi thout a comprehens ive inventory of all signs, personnel began pre l iminary d iscuss ion and applicat ion for possible Federal funding th rough the Ohio Depar tment of Highway Safety for the es tab l i shment of such an inventory. (Note: In early January , 1983, the reques t was approved).
In the fall of 1982 traffic s igns on seven streets totalling 19.3 miles were inspected , inventoried, and brought into compliance with manda ted s tandards .
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 37
Special Events Special traffic controls were provided for the Ohio State
rair , OSU football games, the OSU Farm and Science Review and Columbus Clippers baseball games.
Automatic Counts 245 counts were made in 1982.
Manual Counts To assist the Planning and Systems Engineering Sections
as well as Operations personnel, 96 manual traffic counts were done.
THE PARKING SECTION
Parking Operations The Parking Section is responsible for managing on-street
parking and the loading and unloading of people and goods. Regula t ing park ing in commercia l ly developed areas is accomplished through the use of parking restrictions, parking meters, bus stops, taxi zones and loading zones. Where severe parking problems exist in residential areas, special residential parking permits are issued. The Parking Section also operates two off-street parking lots, one at Childrens Hospital and one in the downtown area at Third and Mound Streets. The Parking Section is funded by the City's General Fund and all revenues generated by the Section are deposited to that fund.
Parking Meters In areas where shor t - term park ing is needed, parking
meters are employed. At the end of 1982 there were approximately 2,500 meters in use, 313 more than the 1981 total. T h i s i n c r e a s e a n d a r a t e a d j u s t m e n t w h i c h w a s implemented dur ing the last quarter of 1981 resulted in revenues in the amount of $866,366. This was an increase of $203,876 over the previous year.
City Operated Parking Lots Two City-owned parking lots are operated by the Parking
Section. The park ing lot at Chi ldrens Hospital provides short-term parking for hospital patrons and in 1982 served 86,036 vehicles, generated $63,237. The Mound Street and Third Street Lot is intended primarily for all day parking with monthly parking contracts available. Some short-time pa rk ing is p e r m i t t e d . In 1982 mon th ly cus tomer s paid $29,849 to park there while daily parkers paid $11,731 for a tota l of $41,580. R e v e n u e g e n e r a t e d by bo th lots w a s $104,817 in 1982, an increase of $3,924.00.
Loading Zones In those cases where it is necessary to provide for loading
or unloading at curbside, a loading zone may be established. Businesses requiring such a loading zone mus t pay a fee for its use and in 1982 loading zone fees amounted to approximately $36,500.
Residential Permit Parking Residential Permi t Parking has been in effect for approx
imately two years in German Village and in the NECKO area south of Ohio S ta te Universi ty . The p rogram is accomplishing its intended purpose, that is providing relief to residents in areas where nearly all available parking was being used by motorists from outside the area. 1982 saw the expansion of the NECKO area and petitions were circulated to residents of a third area which is expected to be approved for Residential Permit Parking in 1983. Fees from the two existing areas totaled $5,415 in 1981.

RE: 1982 Annual Repor t—Let ter of Transmit ta l Attached is our Division's 1982 Annual Report. The report
includes an Execut ive S u m m a r y and is presented in accordance with the new Divisional Organization.
The most significant Adminis t ra t ive accompl i shment was the reorganization of the Division into a functional s t ructure which will provide for improved control of resources to facilitate achievement of the goals of quality water and good service at a reasonable cost. This new organizational structure, along with increased c o m m i t m e n t to the Quality of Working Life program, will provide for clarification of responsibility and the necessary employee participation to permit more efficient opera t ions and effective implementation of p lanned future improvemen t s in Division operations.
All water quality s tandards were complied with throughout the year except for a very short te rm period when the maximum contaminant level for Nitrate was exceeded. In light of the many new water quali ty regulations, I believe this qual i ty record is a d m i r a b l e and a t t r ibu tab le to the dedication and skills of both the Water Research Laboratory and operating staff. If we are able to cont inue providing these groups with the required technical staff and equipment we can be assured tha t they will mee t the challenges of existing and future water quali ty s tandards .
Although the new Billing and Accounts Receivable system has been in operat ion since J u n e of 1981, we have not been successful in providing the level of service that many customers desire. This is not to say that our service is not equivalent to other comparab le service agencies, bu t that it is not at the level which is generally compl imentary to the Division. When we a re ab le to effectively interface the manual operat ions wi th the fully implemented computer system, I am confident that such services will be at a very commendable level.
The Adminis t ra t ive Services G r o u p has implemented a budgeting sys tem tha t pe rmi t s involvement of lower levels of management and supervisors in the resource allocation process and also ass igns lower levels of responsibil i t ies for budget management . This decentral izat ion of the budget ing process, along with a new cost account ing system resulting from the Cost of Service Rate S t ruc ture will provide supervision with the cost/benefit information necessary to improve resource m a n a g e m e n t t h roughou t the Division.
In summary , it is my firm belief that we have a very capable group of personnel and if we cont inue to provide good direction we will progress in our goal achievement .
The direction and suppor t of your office, along with the management t raining p rograms initiated by you will cont inue to b e one of t h e mos t significant a ids to mainta ining appropriate and improved levels of Publ ic Service.
DIVISION OF WATER 1982 ANNUAL REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Division of Water opera ted in a c l imate of change during 1982. An intensive p rogram of Maintenance and Inventory control was initiated, a new Cost of Service Rate Structure was adopted , and the organization itself was res t ructured. These fundamen ta l changes impac ted operations in every area of the Division, mak ing 1982 a dynamic year for our organization.
Planning for the reorganizat ion of the Division began in 1980. This reorganization was implemen ted in 1982. The new organizational des ign consis ts of six (6) functional groups, three (3) line and th ree (3) staff. The manage r s of these groups report to the Office of the Super in tenden t . This new structure will resul t in clearer responsibi l i ty definitions, improved m a n a g e m e n t control , be t te r functional groupings of activities, and will pe rmi t improved delegat ion of authori ty.
During this period of change a posit ive financial position was m a i n t a i n e d , w i t h y e a r e n d c a s h r e s e r v e s to ta l ing $6,406,117. T h e Div i s ion ' s t h r e e wa te r t r e a t m e n t p lan ts processed a record h igh vo lume of 41,789,150,000 gallons of water. Distr ibution and Main tenance personnel repaired 566 water line breaks , work ing a round the clock to ensure service to the 196,185 cus tomers in the Co lumbus water system. These and several o ther significant accompl i shment s were realized in striving to mee t our goal of providing Columbus water c u s t o m e r s w i th Q U A L I T Y WATER AND GOOD SERVICE AT A R E A S O N A B L E COST.
WATER QUALITY—1982 Columbus water plant personnel performed over 350,000
laboratory tests in 1982 to ensure the potability of our water. The Division employs twenty-six (26) persons who are certified by the State of Ohio to perform chemical and bacteri-ojog'cal testing. The Water Research Lab has a staff of eight (8) fulltime chemists , microbiologists and researchers working to ensure that Columbus water meets or exceeds all standards of the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. These professionals also s tudy the Columbus water supply to determine sources of con taminan t s in our water. They research t reatment processes to remove these undesirable elements and work with other agencies to reduce levels of contaminants in the raw water source.
During J u n e of 1982, the water from the Dublin Road Treatment Plant exceeded the m a x i m u m contaminant level for nitrate. In accordance with Federal and State regulations, the customers receiving water from the Dublin Road plant were notified of t h e excess ive ni trate . Alternative water sources were encouraged for persons in the high nitrate health risk group. The nitrate levels remained excessive for several days. When the level dropped below the MCL, customers were notified that the water was safe for all groups of consumers .
This nitrate episode and the resulting efforts in research brought about a significant accompl ishment in Columbus water quality research. High nitrate has been a problem only at the Dublin plant, where the raw water sources are relatively small reservoirs which collect runoff from a large, highly agricultural watershed area. It has now been confirmed that the source of the high nitrate in water from the Dublin Road plant is a direct result of the application of high nitrogen fertilizers in the Scioto River watershed area. Water supply researchers and Division Administrat ion are participating in programs to reduce the runoff of nitrogen fertilizers during Spring rains and thereby protect the water supply from excessive nitrate and other nutr ient and pesticide contaminants .
There were other benefits result ing from the nitrate problem. Contacts were made with other City agencies through the public notification process. Cooperation from the Health Department and Telecommunicat ions Center was very valuable in this situation. Liasons which were made in working with these agencies have provided additional resources and benefits in other matters .
1982 saw progress towards complet ion of the third Columbus water t rea tment plant. The Parsons Avenue Treatment Plant will begin operat ions in mid 1983. This plant, in contrast to the Dublin Road and Morse Road Plants which treat surface water, will treat g round water from a field of six underground collector wells. This facility will provide an additional 50 million gallons per day to the t rea tment capacity of the Columbus system, bringing the total t rea tment capacity to 235 million gallons per day. The bringing on line of the Parsons Avenue plant will secure an adequate water supply to the Columbus area through 2000.
While work cont inued on new sources of supply, the existing source of supply became a concern. The period from August through mid-November was qui te dry in Central Ohio as it was in other parts of the country. Low rainfall and reduced runoff caused Hoover Reservoir to drop to levels of 6 or 7 feet below the same period in 1981. In early November Hoover Reservoir contained only 100 days of supply at a 70 million gallon per day demand rate. The demand load was shifted to t h e Sc io to River raw wate r source by valve changes t h r o u g h o u t the d is t r ibut ion system. With these changes the Dubl in Road and Morse Road plants were each supply ing approx imate ly 50% of the total d e m a n d . The lowest elevation of Hoover Reservoir for 1982 was recorded on November 21, when the pool was at elevation 869.72. This figure was only slightly higher than the record low of 868.60 in March of 1964. Thankfully, rains of late November and December replenished the reservoir to a 262 day storage level at year 's end.
SERVICE TO OUR CUSTOMERS—1982 The Division services its cus tomers in many different
ways from answering billing inquiries by phone , to reading meters to laying pipeline for new homes . We are commit ted not only to providing a quality product , bu t also to service the consumers of that product . During 1982 several measures were taken to increase the level of service to our cus-
°A es r tudy of t h e Cus tomer Relat ions Activity was completed This project s tudied the factors affecting the length of t ime required to service a te lephone cus tomer and the overall number of cus tomers being served dur ing a working
day. Problems were identified and short and long term solution strategies were developed. Full implementation of the recommendations of the study are scheduled to be completed by September 30, 1983. This will produce a higher level of service to our customer by providing more efficient, timely service over the telephone.
At year's end the distribution system was comprised of a network of 2,500 miles of water lines. During 1982, the Distribution and Maintenance crews repaired a total of 566 water line breaks. These crews worked around the clock in all types of weather to restore and maintain service to our customers. , _ .
In November of 1982 construction began on a new Distribution Water Service Center located just east of the Dublin Road Water Plant. This facility will centralize the Distribution Group, the Supply Group Administration, and the Water Research Lab into one location. These activities are currently spread throughout the city. The improved facilities and central location will allow a more efficient operation for these groups.
REDUCING COSTS—1982 As inflation continues to soar, the need for cost control
within our Division and the entire city, becomes paramount. Water has remained a very reasonably priced commodity when compared to the costs of other utilities. In 1982 there was a 10% water rate increase passed by City Council. Due to prudent cost management and changes in the treatment of interest earnings on Division funds, the increase for 1983 is only 2.7%.
This increase is the lowest percentage boost in the last 12 years. With the passage of the City Income Tax increase. City Council voted to return the Division's interest earnings. These earnings are generated from the investment of funds the Division borrows for future capital improvements, it's reserve balances and daily cash flows.
The Division has been studying various methods of pricing water service since 1975. In 1982 a new rate structure was approved by City Council. This structure changes the way that costs are allocated to customers. The new "Cost of Service Rate Structure" ensures that all customers pay their "fair share" for the services which they receive. As a result of this structure change some customer groups will see a substantial increase in the cost of their water service, and conversely some groups will realize a decrease in water costs. In order to minimize the impacts of these changes, the rate structure will be gradually implemented over the next five (5) years. It is expected that all groups of customers will be paying rates which reflect their full cost of service by 1987.
The treatment and distribution of water is an energy intensive process. Natural gas is necessary in treatment and electricity is required to run the pumps which distribute the water throughout the city. In 1982 the cost of natural gas for the Morse Road and Dublin Road Water Plants totalled $365,605.68. The total electricity cost for the two plants amounted to $1,962,210.01. These and other division expenditures are climbing at a rate of 8 to 10% per year. In order to keep water a reasonable commodity we must constantly search for more cost effective methods of operation. Below are highlights of a few of the Division's many cost-reduction programs for 1982.
A Preventive Maintenance Program was designed to align the focus of the Division on protecting the investment in the distribution system, the water treatment plants, and other physical facilities. By concentrating on the preservation and maintenance of existing structures, costs of repair and replacement can be averted. This project also focused on inventory control processes. The Division's system of stocking pipes, valves, meters, hydrants and other materials will be streamlined to minimize the investment in inventory while maintaining efficient access to materials. For this extensive study, the Division contracted with an outside consultant. It has been estimated that when this program is fully implemented, savings could reach $700,000 per year.
The cost of chemicals used in the water treatment process comprises a major portion of Division expenditures each year. In 1982 total chemical costs were $2,727,456. While the purchase price of chemicals continues to increase, water treatment personnel endeavor to make the most efficient use of those dollars spent on chemicals. Chemical costs for water at the Dublin Road plant decreased from $99.53 per million gallons in 1981 to $99.14 per million gallons in 1982 Morse Road chemical costs also experienced a drop from $37.55 to $37.08 per million gallons. These costs decreased while the character of the raw water remained consistent This points to the fact that plant operators and chemists
payed careful attention to raw water quality and chemical feeds required to provide proper treatment.
The Operations section of the Distribution group is equipped with a computerized leak detection system. This system allows workers to locate a leak using sonic detectors and saves the costs of digging and street repair at several locations. Property damage from leaks is also minimized because locating the leak is faster and repair can be started much sooner. The amount of unaccounted-for water, that water which is treated and pumped, but not metered, will decrease because of the ability to locate underground leaks which went undetected in previous years. During 1982 the leak detection equipment had a success rate of 90%. Numerous leaks were detected, located and repaired. The com bined rate of waste of these leaks was 847,000 gallons per day. The annual savings realized from detection and repair amounted to $45,000.
LOOKING AHEAD TO 1983 As we commence operations for 1983 our efforts will con
centrate again on the attainment of our long term goal of providing Columbus with quality water and good service at a reasonable cost. The reorganization consolidation will continue to further the efficiency of our organization. Water quality researchers and treatment personnel will monitor mil • and improve the quality of our product through the protection of our water sources, and the development of efficient cost effective treatment practices. Service improvements will be pursued with programs like the combination of the Domestic Meter Repair and Inspection Activities, the implementation of the Customer Relations Study recommendations and the Public Information and Education Program. ..i . .r The costs of providing water service will be managed 1 through better budget monitoring, preventive maintenance, inventory control systems, and efficient use of investment earnings.

RE: 1982 Annual Report In reviewing the activities of 1982, three (3) events stand b.ii-
out in my mind; the reorganization of the Division; the 9.;. drought which caused Hoover Reservoir to drop to record fc: low levels; and the flood at Parsons Avenue Water Plant in (PAWP) in March, which probably delayed start up of this facility by at least a year.
There were also significant events in the area of major capital improvements; the development and implementation of a new cost of service rate structure; some improve- -•_ ments and additional problems with the new Water and fc Sewer Utility Billing System (WAS/UBS); the addition of another county subdivision (Ridgewood Estates) to our service area; the creation of a special task force to study the >:-service needs that we might be expected to encounter by the art.' year 2000; and another task force to study ways to improve 9</o the satisfaction level of Division employees.
The Division's management training efforts continued by / i its active participation in the National Management Associa- -KI tion (NMA), and its various training and social programs.
Our ability to predict events on the Scioto River Basin i Watershed which might affect our water quality and there- -an,. fore, treatment processes and cost was improved by the joint funding and construction with the United States 29 Geological Survey (USGS) of a new streaming gaging sta- -i tion on Bokes Creek.
We also started construction on a new $7,000,000.00 Dis- -. tribution Center designed to house various Division operations.
This report provides an overview of these accomplish- -i ments and setbacks. More detailed information is contained in other reports being submitted by the Division's three sstdl . Line and three Staff Group Managers. REORGANIZATION
By the end of 1982, the formal reorganization of the Divi- i sion into six (6) functional Groups. There are three (3) Line Groups: Supply, Distribution and Customer Service and three (3) Staff Groups: Administrative Services, Data ;. Processing and Personnel Services. Each Group has a manager who reports to the office of the Superintendent. The u goal of the reorganization effort was to enable the Division n.:i-to better meet its goals of Quality Water, Good Service and Reasonable Cost. The intent is to have an organization that i
DIVISION OF WATER, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
can utilize and respond to a managemen t concept of objective setting to reach goals establ ished by the Superintendent 's Office. While the formal reorganization effort is complete, much work remains to m a k e it function as desired. This will be a pr imary focus for 1983. THE DROUGHT OF 1982
Because of lower than normal s t ream flow in Big Walnut Creek, Hoover Reservoir recorded its lowest water levels since coming on line almost thirty years ago. In order to conserve this supply as m u c h system demand as possible was transferred from the Morse Road Water Plant (MRWP) to our Dublin Road Water P lan t (DRWP). This required rather extensive changes in the distr ibution system and the reactivation of the Ackerman Road Booster Station (ARBS). Arrangements were also m a d e with the Ohio Depar tment of Natural Resources (ODNR) and the U.S. Corps of Engineers (USCOE) to s t a r t t r a n s f e r r i n g wa te r from Alum Creek Reservoir to Hoover. This transfer was p lanned to start if the water volume in Hoover reached a point where there was only ninety days supp ly remain ing . Near the middle of November we were within one week of reaching this point. Fortunately end of t h e year rainfall and result ing runoff started to replenish the Hoover supply and by the end of the year, the reservoir had substant ial ly recovered. PARSONS AVENUE WATER PLANT
The complet ion of this plant, which will add 35 to 40 MGD to our safe yield, and 50 to 75 MGD to our t rea tment and pumping capacity cont inues to be plagued by delays.
In March, a surge ant ic ipator valve on the finished water header failed, resul t ing in considerable flood damage to the plant. By the t ime valves could be tu rned off, water had flooded the basemen t area to a dep th of nine feet.
H u n d r e d s of t h o u s a n d s of d o l l a r s w o r t h of d a m a g e occurred to various mechanical , electrical, ins t rumenta t ion and control sys tems. At this t ime, it appears that the plant might be restored to its pre-flood condit ion about the end of March, 1983, with plant s tart u p scheduled shortly thereafter. Much t ime and effort has been spen t in working with the Contractor, his Insurance Company and our Consul tants to correct the damage caused by this si tuation.
The four wells were basically comple ted dur ing the year by a Contractor hired by the original Contractor 's bonding company. All p u m p s were satisfactorily tested and the wells are ready for product ion .
A problem with the pneumat i c conveying system which transports lime and soda ash from the outs ide bulk storage tanks to day t anks ins ide the p lant was discovered. The present system does not have the air capacity to move particles as large as the City has in stock. This is being reviewed by the Consultant , Contractor and Supplier .
The compute r based ins t rumenta t ion and control system passed a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and was approved for shipment . It arrived in late December and installation is starting. The Contractor has filed a claim for extra work which is being reviewed by our staff and the Consul tants . O'SHAUGHNESSY HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT
The detail des ign was basically comple ted for this 5 Megawatt facility. A meet ing was held for the Division's technical and operating staff to expla in some of the design and operational concepts .
A writ ten M e m o r a n d u m of Under s t and ing regarding environmental operat ional concerns was signed by the City, ODNR and U .S . F i s h E n e r g y R e g u l a t o r y C o m m i s s i o n (FERC) to ensure necessary federal approval for construction and operat ion.
A s tudy to de te rmine the mos t economical use of power was near complet ion at years end. T h e two best al ternatives are either to use the power at the Division's DRWP and PAWP by wheel ing th rough C&SOE and Division of Electricity facilities or to use power at the MRWP which would require the cons t ruc t ion of a separa te power pole line to MRWP from O 'Shaughnessy Dam.
Current plans are to start cons t ruc t ion on this project by mid-83, with start u p scheduled for the end of 84 or early 85. MRWP RAW WATER LINE (RWL) AND HYDRO
A consul tant work ing u n d e r the direction of Mr. Cosens, Water Supp ly G r o u p Manager , is p repar ing a detail design report for this $16,000,000.00 project to const ruct an 84 inch water line from Hoover D a m to Morse Road Water Plant. This project, when comple ted , will help insure the quality of our largest (75%) water supply facility. It will also el iminate the need for r e -pumping wa te r at MRWP, therefore, lowering electrical opera t ing costs. The plans are to provide for a future hydroelectr ic genera tor set near the plant t e rminus of this line. The economic justif ication for this was established in an earlier project feasibility s tudy. Envi ronmenta l data will be collected du r ing opera t ion of the RWL to de te rmine
if the Hydro project might have any adverse impacts. The project is currently scheduled to start construction in 1984. HAMILTON ROAD 48 INCH TRANSMISSION MAIN
Due to the bonding company having to complete this project, it is considerably behind schedule. When completed this $2,000,000.00 project will considerably improve the reliability of our supply to the east side of our service area. Many leaks were located and repaired during the year, but the Contractor could not conduct a satisfactory pressure-leakage test. At the end of the year it was proposed to the bonding company to put the line in service on a trial basis with the unders tanding that any leaks discovered will be repaired by them. DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION
Perhaps one of the most exciting and potentially rewarding projects is under the direction of Mr. John Doutt , Distribution Group Manager. When completed all major distribution facilities (high service pumps , booster stations, tanks, and pressure regulating valves) will be able to be monitored and controlled from a computer based central Operations Center. This Operations Center will be housed in the New Distribution Center. This $3,500,000.00 project is scheduled for bids in J u n e of 1983. MAINTENANCE AND INVENTORY CONTROL PROJECT
This project, designed to improve maintenance and inventory practices for our three plants, distr ibution system, and meters, had some notable accompl ishments and se tbacks during the year. The Consultant and our task force completed its very laborious task of document ing the existing procedures and making recommendat ions on organizational and staffing requirements . After several meetings, it was decided that the best system was a combinat ion of central planning, monitoring and control to assist the exist ing plant maintenance personnel.
Approval of this concept was obtained from the Director and included in presentat ions to the Sewer and Water Rate Board. The plan was presented to plant management and maintenance personnel. Interviews were held to de termine the desire and capability of exist ing staff to fill three new key posi t ions ; Ma in t enance Manager , Assis tant Maintenance Manager and Inventory Coordinator. An existing employee was promoted to the Inventory Coordinator position and another identified as a potential candidate for the Assistant Main tenance Manager . It was de t e rmined that the Maintenance Manager position would have to be filled by recruitment from outside the Division.
Unfortunately, the Consul tant ' s project manager terminated his employment and the project temporari ly was put on hold.
It is hoped that the Maintenance Manager 's position can be filled very early in 1983, and the project restarted. This should be a top 1983 priority.
In closing, I would like to express my appreciat ion to all the Division employees who made the accompl ishments of 1982 possible and whose contr ibut ions in 1983 will ensure that with P E O P L E SERVING P E O P L E , we will be able to continue to provide QUALITY WATER and GOOD SERVICE at REASONABLE COST, to our cus tomers in Columbus and its sur rounding suburbs .

FROM: KenMol l i Administrat ive Services Manager
RE: 1982 Annual Repor t
I. 1982 ACCOMPLISHMENTS A. ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES MANAGER
The Administrat ive Services Group was created in January 1982 The Group consists of the Adminis t ra t ive Services Manager the Fiscal Administrat ion Section, the Policy/Procedure Research and Program Management Section and the Public Relations/Office Management Section. There are 24 posi t ions b u d g e t e d for th i s g r o u p . T h e miss ion of this Group is to provide the Division with management , fiscal and informational resources to achieve its goals and objectives. „
Since the Administrat ive Service Group was a new organizational arrangement , a good deal of t ime was spent defining responsibili ty areas, j ob descript ions and internal operating policies and procedures . However, considerable resources were spent in improving the Division s financial s tructure The development of a new rate s t ructure and improving the budget setting and review process is placing the Division upon a m u c h better financial foundation.
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
The major 1982 accomplishments were: 1 Rate Structure Re-design. The Division, with the assis
tance of Black and Veatch consulting engineers, developed a new water rate structure. The new rate structure provides for a more detailed cost allocation of the services provided by the Division. This ensures that those customers who cause certain costs, pay those costs. The result is a more equitable rate structure and improved management information. _..
The Sewer and Water Board recommended and City Council approved the new cost of service water rate structure. It was decided that a gradual shift to this new structure would be in the best interest of the customers and the Division. It is expected that customers will be paying full cost of service rates by January 1, 1987.
2 Division Reorganization. The Division implemented an organizational change. The change was done gradually throughout the year (Administrative Services in January; Customer Services, Personnel, Data Processing, and Supply in April; and Distribution in November). The new organization provides a better functional alignment with the Division goal of quality water, good service, and reasonable cost. Also, a more manageable span of control was developed. Exhibit 1 shows the new organizational structure.
The reorganization resulted in a more refined budgeting approach. The new budget system allocates resources to the sub-activity level instead of just the activity level. For example, the previous budget system set up a budget for the total Customer Relations Activity. However, the Customer Relations Activity is made up of Administration, Telephone and Public Office components. The reorganization provided the opportunity for the Division to budget each of these components. The Division hopes to get a better feel for the relationship between resources spent and services rendered under this new approach. B. FISCAL ADMINISTRATION SECTION
The Fiscal Administration Section's mission is to determine the Division's financial requirements, monitor its purchases and expenditures, monitor its revenues and collect past due accounts.
The Fiscal Administration Section was originally assigned 17 projects for 1982. An additional 9 projects were assigned during the year. This makes a total of 26 projects which were assigned to this section for 1982.
The Division maintained a positive financial position throughout 1982. The beginning cash balance for the Division as of January 1,1982 was $7,214,869. During the year the Division had receipts totaling $40,292,335 and disbursements totaling $38,675,910. This left the Division with a cash balance as of December 31, 1982 of $8,831,294. The unencumbered portion amounted to $6,406,117. A detailed listing of these facts is included with this report following Exhibit
Since its inception in January of 1982, the Fiscal Administration Section has been seeking to improve the Division's financial structure. The major projects worked on in that regard include the following:
1. 1983 Rate Review. As a part of 1982-86 Expenditure/ Revenue Plan, 1983 Expenditure and Revenue Projections were re-examined. Also at this time projections were made for 1987 in order to maintain a five-year planning horizon. The Division requested an expenditure increase of $3.6 million (9.3%) over 1982 expenditure projections. This would have resulted in a 13.6% rate increase. The difference between the rate of increase of expenditures (9.3%) and the rates requested (13.6%) is the amount of increase required to eliminate deficit spending. The Sewer and Water Advisory Board recommended a final budget of $41.8 million or $418,000 less than the Division's final request. The Department of Finance later increased this budget by approximately $188,000 to adjust for their revised employee insurance cost estimate. The final budget therefore totals $41,998,000. The Board also recommended an overall rate increase of 10%. This included the use of $766,000 from the Division's reserves. An additional $2.5 million was later allocated to the Division for 1983 as part of projected interest earnings. This brought the 1983 overall rate increase down to 2.7%. The rate structure employed by the Division was also changed to reflect a more equitable pricing system This will cause the amount of rate increase to vary among consumers according to their specific account characteristics.
2. Budget Process Improvements. During 1982 several improvements were made to the Division's budget process More input concerning the budget was solicited from Group Managers and Activity Heads. The lines of communication concerning budget information were improved. A comparison between 1983 budget amounts and prior years expendi
tures was conducted prior to final budget submittal. The 1983 budget planning process was improved in order to ensure that relevant information was available for timely discussion by the Sewer and Water Advisory Board. A microcomputer was also purchased near the end of 1982 which will greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of the budget process in future years.
3. Quarterly Review Improvements. This project was partially completed during 1982. The major improvement in the Quarterly Financial Review process was to more directly involve the Group Managers and Activity Heads in their expenditure projections. This will serve to increase the accuracy of the projections since the Group Managers and Activity Heads have the best knowledge of their relevant operations. The Division has also initiated the development of a more comprehensive revenue projection system. This development along with other enhancements will continue throughout 1983.
4. Collections Activity Reorganization. During 1982 the Division's Collections Activity was moved from the Bookkeeping/Accounts Receivable Activity to the Fiscal Administration Section. This activity was then reorganized to include not only the Division's Collections efforts but also its Claims and Property Management responsibilities. General responsibilities have been defined for the Collections Activity and a new organizational structure has been developed. In the area of Claims Management, a new policy has been implemented that will make Group Managers and Activity Heads more aware of claims in their area. Claims will be paid out of the specific Activity budget that generated the claim rather than out of the Division's Administration budget. An improvement has also been made in the area of Property Management. A comprehensive application form has been developed for perspective tenants of Division owned property. This will provide a method of screening the applicants in order to improve the tenant selection process.
C. POLICY/PROCEDURE RESEARCH AND PROGRAM MANAGEMENT SECTION
The mission of the Policy/Procedure/Program Management Section is to develop, plan and implement policy/procedure research and cost reduction programs.
For the year 1982, the Policy/Procedure Section was assigned 15 projects. During the year, an additional 6 projects were assigned bringing the total to 21. Of these projects, 8 were completed and 5 are very near completion.
Some of the major projects developed by the Section include the following:
1. Customer Service Telephone Office Improvement Study. This study was undertaken because of the deficiencies that existed in our Customer Service Telephone Activity. The broad scope of the problem was that the length of time to service a customer and the number of customers served was at an unacceptable level.
The major objectives of the study were to: a) Increase the number of service requests that were pro
cessed by the Customer Service Representatives. b) Increase the amount of time the Customer Service
Representative is on the telephone. c) Reduce the number of billing errors that resulted in
additional mail and multiple return phone calls to Customer Service.
d) Reduce the amount of clerical tasks that are required of the Customer Service Representatives.
To achieve these objectives, problems were identified and short term/long term strategies were developed. Short term strategies were defined as those whereby the Division has maximum control over areas being changed. Long term strategies were defined as those programs not completely under Division control. Program implementation and impact are dependent on coordination and cooperation from other city agencies and the constraints with which they must contend.
It was recommended that all 18 strategies be pursued as soon as possible. Full implementation of the program will be completed by September 30, 1983.
2. Obsolete Meter Replacement Program. As part of a major project to identify the Division's 18% unaccounted for water loss, the primary objective of the Obsolete Meter Program is replacement of 268 untestable and/or irreparable meters. Development of this project has required considerable data collection, research and analysis of sub-projects.
Accomplishments include project costing, installation personnel, scheduling and warehousing requirements, meter data assembly, policy resolution and notification procedures. Yet to be completed are contract development, staff selection, financial legislation and activity coordination.

DIVISION OF WATER, COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
Through extensive data analysis and in-field inspections, it has been found that about 180 of the large meters targeted for replacement in March 1982, need not be replaced. This represents a savings, th rough research, of about 40% of the work originally identified and is partially responsible for delaying implementa t ion until Spring, 1983.
3. Combination of Inspection/Domestic Meter Repair Activities Study. In January , 1982 the Division of Water under took a s t udy to d e t e r m i n e t h e feasibi l i ty of c o m b i n i n g t h e Domestic Meter Repair and Inspect ion Activities It was felt that because of the success of the Remote Program, which eliminated much of the need to repair meters , an overlap in responsibilities and functions existed between the two activities. This being true, combin ing the two activities would more efficiently utilize resources and consequent ly increase the Division's effectiveness to the public.
As part of the s tudy a field exper iment was conducted using a combined group and a control group. The results showed that because of a greater sense of au tonomy from having tota l r e spons ib i l i t y for an area, t ravel t ime and mileage would be reduced, product ivi ty increased, duplicate tr ips decreased and job satisfaction would be elevated.
As a result of the s tudy, a task force was set up to formulate an implementa t ion plan and strategy with a target date of January 1, 1983.
The p ro jec t w a s b r o k e n d o w n in to six major a reas : Physical plant, E q u i p m e n t and Suppl ies , Training, Personnel and Civil Service, Internal P rocedures and Commercial/ Domestic Meter Repair Split .
Space has been identified and renovated to house the combination at the Dubl in Avenue Meter Shop. Equ ipmen t and supply needs have been formulated and purchased. Internal procedures have been developed. It was decided that it would be advantageous to split Commercia l and Domest ic Meter Repair before the combina t ion took effect. This has been accomplished. Cross t ra ining of personnel has been started. The only th ing holding u p implementa t ion of the project is tha t Civil Service m u s t approve new job descript ions and i m p l e m e n t t h e revised classification sys tems . Whenever t h e a p p r o v a l is rece ived , superv i sors will be appointed, t raining comple ted and the new Combina . ion Activity will begin.
4. Violation Detection and Enforcement Policy. This project provides the Division wi th the m e a n s to reduce (in some part) the unaccoun ted for water problem. The major objectives of this policy are:
a) To reduce the cost of violations for the Division. b) To increase the cus tomers and Division's personnel
awareness of the Division's concern wi th the violation problem.
c) To have the violator pay the cost of the violation. d) To reduce the n u m b e r of violations. d) To increase t h e Divis ion 's documen ta t i on of viola
tions and all tha t they encompass—cost , labor t ime, extent of violation, etc.
The 1981 violation detec t ions and enforcement policy has been revamped for implementa t ion with the reorganization of the Division's Inspect ion and Meter Repair Activities. As the costs of providing water service rises and the effect of these costs upon the Division's cus tomers becomes greater, there is a potential for more inc idences of t amper ing with the Division's meter ing system. T h u s the Division needs a policy that sets u p p rocedures to actively detect , investigate and enforce the Division's rules and regulat ions. The effort by the Division to detect and correct violations as quickly as possible is a key e lement of this policy to further reduce the costs violations place on the Division's operat ing budget . Imposing a charge u p o n those who violate Division rules and regula t ions will he lp to resolve the equi ty p rob lem where all cus tomers are penalized with higher bills due to the actions of a few.
5. Senior Citizen Rate Program. The Senior Citizen Rate Program is a result of City Ord inance 1148-81, which provides for a 25% rate reduct ion for low income, elderly water consumers . S ince t h e P r o g r a m was imp lemen ted on Ju ly 1, 1981,1,913 appl icants have been approved for benefit, while 607 appl icants did not qualify. The revenue loss to the Division was approximate ly $20,500 dur ing 1982, in addit ion to the adminis t ra t ive cost of $11,400. If the 1982 response rate continues, the 1983 revenue loss a lone will be $26,000.
During 1982, 3,386 appl icat ions were dis tr ibuted, and 737 were re turned, resul t ing in 580 addit ional consumers receiving the senior rate reduct ion. One quar te r of the appl icants could not be approved, d u e primari ly to appl icant failure to verify claimed age and income.
The following p rocedures were revised dur ing 1982:
a) The application distribution system was revised to increase its efficiency. The application return rate increased from 11% previously to the current 22%.
b) The application was revised, resulting in reduced processing paperwork, reduced print ing costs, improved records, and greater emphas is on applicant concerns demonstrated during the first six months of the program.
c) The application approval postcard was revised to provide more complete information to the consumer. The revision has been effective in reducing bill related inquiries and complaints.
d) A desk- top card file was produced , containing information on each approved applicant. It has proved valuable in reducing inquiry response t ime and facilitating program statistical analysis.
Analysis of all applications received from the t ime the program was implemented on Ju ly 1, 1981, through December 31, 1982, revealed:
a) The mean age at approval is 74.8 years, which is 9.8 years older than the m i n i m u m qualifying age, and
b) The mean annual income at approval is $4,983, which is only 64% of the upper limit.
D. PUBLIC RELATIONS/OFFICE MANAGEMENT SECTION As a part of the Administrat ive Services Section, the Pub
lic Relations/Office Management activity serves both the water customers and all segments of the Division.
The mission of the Public Relations office is to provide the public with timely, accurate information about the Division of Water, its product and services. In the capacity of media liaison, the Public Relations Administrator formulates all press releases, coordinates press conferences and facilitates Division contacts with the media. More direct public education is accomplished through the development and distribution of bill stuffers, brochures and displays dur ing Better Water Week and the Ohio State Fair.
The Office Management section has as its aim the provision of information services and s tandard operat ing procedures to all areas of the Division of Water. In analyzing costs, securing efficient systems of office equ ipment and responding to supply and informational needs of Division sections, the Office Management staff contr ibutes to the realization of the Division's goal of "Quality Water and Good Service at a Reasonable Cost".
The Public Relations/Office Management area was born out of the Division wide reorganization and began operations in January of 1982. The staff consisted of an Administrator (Development Project Assistant I), a Mail Clerk (Typist Clerk I) and a Custodial Worker I.
An op t imis t i c t w e n t y - o n e (21) p ro jec t s were initially assigned to this area in 1982. An additional seven (7) were added throughout the first and second quarters . With this project schedule and numerous rout ine activities to be performed, the need for addit ional analytical staff became quite apparent. At mid-year a decision was m a d e to split the activity into two segments , Publ ic Relations and Office Management. The process to hire an Office Manager was initiated. Also evident was a need for an Administrat ive Office Receptionist, this function was placed in the Office Management area and the paperwork to create the position was begun.
Projects for the PR/Office Management activity were re-prioritized. Emphas is was placed on maintaining and enhancing routine operat ions and performing the Publ ic Relations duties. The scheduled projects which related to the Office Management function were held in anticipation of the filling of the Office Manager position. Due to delays in processing, the position was not filled until December of 1982. This delay accounts for many projects being behind sche-
In retrospect the major accompl i shments of the PR/Office Management area in 1982 are as follows:
1. Public Information/Education Projects a) Two public information displays were held dur ing
1982 The Division pa r t i c ipa ted in t h e Amer i can Water Works Association sponsored "Better Water Week", May 2-9 with an informational display at Northland Mall. A display was also set up in the Electric Building at the Ohio State Fair August 6-22. These events helped to educate the Columbus water cus tomers about the t reatment , quality and cost factors of their water.
b) A half hour television program was writ ten and broadcast over t h e G o v e r n m e n t T e l e c o m m u n i c a t i o n s Cable Channel 3. This program traced Columbus water th rough supply processing and distr ibution to the cus tomer ' s tap. A valuable resource exists in the Telecommunicat ions department and this initial program opened the door to many possibilities for future product ions .

2. Media Activities a) In June of 1982 the water from the Dublin Road Treat
ment Plant contained nitrate in excess of the maximum allowable levels as dictated by the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. In accordance with the State of Ohio interpretation of this federal law, the Division of Water was required to notify the public of the excessive nitrate. A press conference was held on June 23. Water Division officials, Ohio EPA Water Quality Chief and the Medical Director of the Columbus Health Department presented facts and answered questions from the press. When the story aired it was portrayed as a "Water Emergency". After many phone calls from concerned customers and follow-up news stories, the issue was put into perspective. From this episode we have learned a great deal about the treatment of these issues and therefore are much better prepared to handle future notifications. Through this experience, strong ties were made with other city/state agencies. These relationships offer valuable resources in many other areas of Public Relations with Division customers.
b) The Sewer and Water Advisory Board reviewed and recommended to Council a new water rate structure to be adopted over the next several years. This new cost of service structure was passed by City Council late in November. During the Board review period, several media contacts were made to explain the intent of the new structure. Several newspaper articles, radio and television stories were covered in the issue. There is an ongoing effort to provide the public with additional information on the new structure and its customer impacts.
3. OFFICE MANAGEMENT PROJECTS a) The Division Administrative offices on the third floor
of the Marconi Building were redesigned in order to produce a more professional, efficient work environment. The Water Engineering offices moved out of the building, freeing one-third of the floor for office redesign. Two basic premises were followed in formulating the new floor plan. One, that organizational units should be located together. And two, managers should be given private office areas and noise should be controlled in all areas. The move took place with minimal disruption of work. Phones were moved, allowing all areas to retain their original numbers. Partitions were reallocated to provide more effective section delinea
tions and reduce traffic through work areas. Additional improvements are slated to continue during 1983.
b) Standard office procedures were established for ordering and distribution of supplies, large volume copying and phone/building service requests. Activities have been following these procedures and cost and time savings are evident.
II. 1983 OBJECTIVES The Administrative Service Group will pursue many proj
ects during 1983. The focus will continue to be the improvement of the Div is ion f inancial and organiza t ional framework. Some of the objectives to be worked on in 1983 are:
1. To implement the new cost of service water rate structure and schedule and the necessary support systems by December 31, 1983.
2. To consolidate the Division reorganization by December 31, 1983.
3. To continue the implementation of a program budgeting structure and the necessary support by September 30, 1983.
4. To improve the financial reporting analysis structure by August 31, 1983.
5. To develop and implement a comperhensive unaccounted for water program by December 31, 1983.
6. To develop a Division wide policy and procedure manual format by December 31, 1983.
7. To study account reading and billing procedures by August 31, 1983.
8. To develop a public education program by December 31, 1983.
9. To establish and implement standardized office procedures by December 31, 1983.
10. To develop cost reduction programs for office operations by August 31, 1983.
1983 promises to be a landmark year. Many changes to the Division's operations have been proposed and partially implemented. The 1983 objectives planned for the Administrative Services Group will re-enforce the many changes underway within the Division. This ensures another step is taken towards the goal of providing quality water and good customer service at a reasonable cost.

TO: Jack A. Holt, P.E. Superintendent
FROM: Joseph P. Miles Personnel Manager
RE: 1982 Annual Report The calendar year, 1982, has been a significant year in the
development of the Division in many ways. A long, frustrated effort of reorganization has taken place. Perhaps, fortunately, some ongoing programs were in place to help alleviate some of the negative impacts of the reorganization itself, the manner in which it was initiated, the morale problems it has inevitably caused, and keeping in counterbalance the fuzzy lines of authority and responsibilities among the activities, as well as among individual employees.
The ongoing programs which were in progress are the Management Training Program, the professional management organization available for the supervisors to participate in at both a professional and social level, the Quality of Working Life program, the opportunity for supervisory personnels ideas to be considered in the collective bargaining process, and some other efforts that at least were formulated and started in the calendar year, such as a task force to study employee satisfaction level survey, regular staff meetings of top management, and efforts to pursue and formulate policies and programs in such areas as in-house training, employee evaluation, a Division news vehicle of some sort, a formal orientation for new employees, and a manual for employees in general.
The automated payroll system came on line for the Division about mid year. Although this has caused different procedural efforts on the part of the payroll staff, and is producing informational type reports that were not previously available, the full impact and benefit of the system has not yet been realized.
The recruitment and hiring process has continued to delay the filling of vacancies, both replacement and new. A different mechanical tracking system has been set up on this process that should keep affected supervisory personnel better informed about the status of hiring efforts a: any given time for any given position.
During the 1982 calendar year thirty-one (31) original appointments were made, sixteen (16) promotional appointments were processed, and twenty-one (21) employees terminated. There were some thirty-five (35) personnel transactions affecting part time employees.
A Safety Program Manager was hired late in the year. The enthusiasm that he has shown and the innovation that was put forth in the few weeks he was with the Division shows promise for a significant program in this very crucial area of the Division operations. There should be benefits derived that would be broader than a change in statistics in the safety concept. Programs have been innovated and are in the planning stages that should produce a higher morale through competition and an establishment of personal pride within the Division.
This report is presented in a spirit of introspection as well as in an attempt to describe the happenings within the personnel services areas in a condition of prose.
TO: Jack A. Holt, P.E. Superintendent
FROM: Don Lord Data Processing Systems Coordinator
RE: 1982 Annual Report Before reviewing the activities of 1982, one must comment
on the frenetic period of time from June, 1981 when the new data system was implemented through the first quarter of 1982 when we finally began to catch up in correcting the magnitude of errors generated when the new system was brought on-line. Many problems surfaced because of inadequate time to fully test the system modules and thoroughly train our employees in use of the new system. Some 240 system problems have been identified of which 190 have been resolved with proper changes to prohibit errors from reoccurring.
During the last half of 1981; after implementation of the new Data System, 12 enhancement needs were identified to facilitate processing in the system. In 1982 these enhancements were contracted to Peat, Marwick, Mitchell &: Co. for programming and implementation at a cost of $49,900. These enhancements were:
1. To change Account Receivable Summary Screen to show total payment and balance due on a per bill basis. This
gives our Customer Service personnel a clear picture of billings and payments when talking to customers.
2. Collection Override Reports that show all charges due so they can be individually analyzed or reports for Water only charges to be sent to a collection agency or reports for Suburban Surcharges that are uncollectable and are to be suspended from customer accounts.
3. Programs to automatically adjust Sewer, Water and Surcharge amounts from customer records and add them into summary suspense accounts when they are certified to taxes, sent to a collection agency or suspended.
4. Scheduling of Billing and Meter Reading Reconciliation by Zone and/or Book within Zone to facilitate schedules for even billing and reconciling readings on a more accurate date basis.
5. A program to Rebill customers for a previous rendered bill giving a new due date and automatically cancelling any previous penalty amounts if desired.
6. The ability to check effective date of samples in extra strength billing of sewer charges to Industrial accounts.
7. The ability to add consumption (if applicable) for Water and/or Sewer to manual billings. This stores consumption data on customer bill records and are added to Management Statistical reports.
8. An on-line bill simulation program that allows calculation of future billings if a customer needs to know such prior to a regular bill run. It also allows review of all bill structures prior to the time a rate change is put into effect.
9. The ability to remove payments, cancel billings and reapply payments in the same transaction string in one day. Previously this took two days to complete and necessitate keeping manual notes to be sure all transactions were performed.
10. Instead of all consumption adjustment readings being treated as actual readings, which was not always the case, the ability to enter the true reading type (estimated, actual or final) allows maintaining of a more accurate meter reading history.
11. A new calculation module to charge Suburban sewer surcharge based on sewer consumption instead of water consumption where suburban ordinances so designate.
12. A new calculation module to allow a percent of Water and/or Sewer charges to be billed as a suburban surcharge which eliminates the need of a suburb to change their ordinances everytime we change our water or sewer rates. This also eliminates the need for many entries in our rate calculation tables.
The Water/Sewer Billing and Account Receivable System operates under somewhat of a handicap whereas we the user are responsible for data entry, customer maintenance and adjustments to accounts which can be properly handled and maintained under our control. But Computer Operations, Programming, Computer Hardware, inputs of meter reading tickets and cash payment stubs are managed by the City Data Center over which we have no control or voice in their operation and decision making. Despite problems of System failures, Hardware changes and operational difficulties, we were able to maintain billing schedules and processing of revenue through year end 1982. Our employees in Customer Service, Bookkeeping, Meter Reading and Inspection should be commended for a job well done in resolving and correcting problems to give our customers better service. It proves that a user oriented on-line real time Data System can and will work.
The resumption of turn-offs for non-payment of Quarterly accounts was initiated in 1982 and the authority to turn off for non-payment of Sewer charges and Suburban Surcharges made the process easier to perform.
The automated process of Owner Notification and Sewer Certification to property taxes performed well and on schedule with few minor errors. Normally this process took several weeks under our old system and caused us to shut down revenue processing during this time.
The Payment application and Revenue to FAMIS reporting facets of our system are working very well. All payments for 1982, except one for $29.00, was applied to customer accounts before opening for business on January 3,1983. All Revenue was reported to the Auditor FAMIS Accounting System through December 28, 1982.
A Graduate Student for Ohio State University has been working with us compiling her Dissertation Research, "The Impact of Computer Technology on Working Life". A copy of her Dissertation will be available to us when it is completed sometime in 1983. .
In October, 1982 a Task Force comprised of representatives from groups of the Water Division was established to study and develop a Comprehensive Micrographics
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
Recordskeeping System(s). The scope of their task is to research, develop, design, document and implement a Recordskeeping System to encompass all activities and functions of the Division of Water. This study, now in its early stages, should bring to light problems and much duplication of effort performed within the Division.
The major business Data System objectives for 1983 are as follows:
1. To continue improving Data System by resolving problems on a priority basis; maintaining schedules and improving system's response time.
2. To continue design and implementation of a Records-keeping/Filing system.
3. To continue development of programs to refund inactive customer deposits.
4. To reactivate Data System training programs for Activity Supervisors.
5. To develop procedures to implement interfacing of Billings to Auditor's FAMIS accounting system.
In summary of 1982 operations, it has been proven that the Data System is the key to giving GOOD SERVICE to our customers. When the System is up with good response to our accesses all processes function with minimal problems.
TO: Jack A. Holt, P.E. Superintendent
FROM: Charles R. Hachat Customer Services Manager
RE: 1982 Annual Report The mission of the Customer Services Group is to provide
all Division of Water customers with courteous and dependable service in an efficient and cost effective manner. The reorganization of the Division in 1982 provides a good basis for implementation of future programs and completion of our missions in a time when the public demands a higher level of service and has a keen awareness of utility cost. I. ACCOMPLISHMENTS
The Customer Services Group consists of Customer Relations, Consumer Service, Bookkeeping/Accounts Receivable, Meter Maintenance, Meter Reading and Sales. The goal of this group is to meet our objectives for 1983 and assist in any way possible in meeting the Division's goals of "Quality Water, Good Service, and Reasonable Cost".
The Customer Services Group realized several significant accomplishments in 1982 which dealt with carryover problems from the conversion to the new on-line data system. A. CUSTOMER RELATIONS
The Customer Relations Activity is responsible for handling and processing all service orders from customer inquiries to related Customer Services Activities.
During 1982, the Customer Relations Activity completed all account research necessitated by implementation problems with the new on-line Water/Sewer Accounts Receivable Billing System. All adjustments were defined and forwarded to Bookkeeping for resolution. A backlog of mail, comprising six months of requests, was completed and procedures established to ensure all written inquiries are processed within three business days.
Notification and turn-off procedures for delinquent special pay plans, deposits and lack of contract, were revised to correlate with automated reports.
The Telephone Center was restructured to consolidate clerical functions, account research, hearings, correspondence and training.
For the first time, property owners were notified in advance of pending sewer certification to property tax bills of all unpaid sewer charges. This proved to be a worthwhile program and was well accepted by the public.
During the last three months of the year, the telephone service factor was increased to a level of answering 38 percent of the incoming calls within three minutes. B. CONSUMER SERVICE (INSPECTION)
The Consumer Service Activity is responsible for the investigation of all high bill complaints from customers assisting them in determining the cause of high consumption and poor pressure. They also ensure proper installation of new and renewed service lines through inspection of all installations. This activity also performs the unpleasant task of collecting delinquent water and sewer bills by turn-offs
Due to the many problems that existed when we converted to the new data system, turn-offs were suspended for a period. Turn offs were resumed in May of 1982 and a notic-able increase in revenue has resulted.
All personnel from the Meter Maintenance Activity and the Consumer Service Activity have received some cross-training in preparation for the combination of the two activities.
Employees of the City of Hilliard began performing inspection duties under the direction of this activity.
A compressor has been acquired and has greatly increased our efficiency in servicing the customer by enabling curb boxes to be put in shape for turn-ons and turn-offs. This has also decreased the number of orders sent to the Distribution Center.
We were able to identify approximately 30,000 addresses that did not have tap locations. We were able to locate approximately 4,000 of these this year and enter 10,000 of the 190,000 tap locations into the data base.
The Consumer Services collected a total of $329,000 in the field in 1982 for delinquent bills. C. BOOKKEEPING
The Bookkeeping/Accounts Receivable Activity is responsible for the accurate billing of all water and sewer services, issuing warrants for credits on overpayments, balancing all revenue received, maintaining records of all documents, as required, maintaining and updating information required on the data base to ensure proper billing and ensure necessary information is available for servicing the customer.
The Bookkeeping Activity, like the Customer Relations Activity, has a large backlog of incorrect bills created by implementation of the new on-line data system. This backlog was completed in 1982.
The microfilm camera was not usable for the last three months of 1982, which has created a backlog in this area. A new camera has been requisitioned and, hopefully, this backlog will be completed in 1983.
We were able to process revenue to the City Auditor through December 28, 1982. This is the first time revenue has been processed so close to the end of the year. D. METER READING
The Meter Reading Activity is responsible for the accurate reading of all domestic and commercial water meters, assigning all billing account numbers and identifying problems in the field which could create billing problems.
As in past years, the Meter Reading Activity has maintained a high level of performance in performing their duties as in past years.
Two new subdivisions were brought into the system, consisting of some 813 accounts, which required routing and assigning of account numbers.
A new procedure has been developed in conjunction with the Sales Office whereby new accounts are assigned permanent account numbers, eliminating the need to change account numbers at a later date. E. METER MAINTENANCE
The Domestic Meter Maintenance Activity is responsible for installation and field maintenance of all Va inch through l'/i inch meters.
We were able to install new meters and remote readers in the Brookside Estates subdivision shortly after they were brought into the system. We are also planning, at this time, to changeout the metering systems in Ridgewook Estates.
In looking forward to the combination with the Consumer Service Activity, the Domestic Meter Maintenance activity has been participating in a cross-training program. F. SALES OFFICE
Due to the reorganization of the Division, the Sales Office was transferred from Engineering to the Customer Services Group during the latter part of 1982.
The responsibility of the Sales Office is to issue permits and collect all fees for new services coming into our distribution system, obtain the account numbers and put all data into the computer. II. 1983 OBJECTIVES
The major objectives of the Customer Services Group for 1983 are:
1. Complete the combination of the Domestic Meter Repair and Consumer Service Activities by June 1, 1983. By combining the functions of these Activities, we will be providing a more complete and timely service to the customer. Combination will further result in reduced travel time, fewer field calls and more timely updating of accounts.
2. Increase the capability of the Customer Relations Telephone Activity to receive and process incoming customer calls in a more timely manner, by December 31, 1983. This is planned by:
a) implementing feasible recommendations that are listed in a recent study by Administrative Services.
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 15
b) purchas ing and installing more up-to-date te lephone system equipment .
c) a t t empt ing to r educe the n u m b e r of incoming customer inquiries.

e) redesigning the Te lephone and Publ ic Office areas. 3. Decrease response and resolution t ime relative to cus
tomer inquiries to seven work ing days by Ju ly 1, 1983. This should reduce valid cus tomer complaints .
4. Imp lemen t an employee cross-training program by April 1,1983 that will provide increased flexibility in personnel ass ignments and decrease periodic negative impacts of specialization. A program will b e p lanned with emphas i s on cross-training with Activity lines, bu t general cross-training will be ex tended across Activity lines. Documenta t ion will be main ta ined r eco rd ing n a m e s of employees receiving training, n u m b e r of hours t rained and type of training received.
5. I m p r o v e e m p l o y e e mora le and job satisfaction by utilizing information provided by a recent 'Employee Satisfaction Survey' , by December 31, 1983.
a) provide be t t e r c o m m u n i c a t i o n lines from management to the employee and from the employee to managem e n t ( w e e k l y s c h e d u l e d A c t i v i t y m e e t i n g s , w r i t t e n announcements , etc.)
b) provide employee wi th specific direction and expectations.
c) establish and imp lemen t an employee evaluation and performance appraisal program.
6. Complete additional training of supervisors and employees relative to the on-line data system, by J u n e 1, 1983.
Documenta t ion will be maintained recording names of persons receiving training, number of hours trained and type of training received.
7. Reduce exis t ing G r o u p policies and procedures to written form by December 31, 1983.
This objective is inclusive of document ing existing Activity procedures (Activity Procedure Manuals) and maintaining existing User Documentat ion.
8. Review day-to-day procedures of each Activity and implement any modifications that can be identified that will result in an increase in efficiency and productivity, by December 31,1983. Any increase in efficiency and productivity should result in reduct ion of overtime.
9. Standardize report ing methods and record keeping by December 31, 1983. This can be achieved by providing Activity supervision and employees with additional training relative to account information that should be entered and retrieved from the on-line system.
Standardization will also be extended to Monthly Activity Repor t s , spec ia l r e p o r t s , a n d r e p o r t s and r e c o r d s of a routine nature.
10. Remain within the establ ished budget for the year 1983. Activity supervisors are becoming more aware and responsible for their budgets . Controls that have been implemented at the Group managemen t level and cont inued mon i to r ing of e x p e n d i t u r e s shou ld resu l t in improved budgetary practices and more responsible planning.

FROM: John R. Doutt, P.E. Distribution Manager
RE: 1982 Annual Report The mission of the Distribution Group is to distribute safe
water in ample quantity while providing reliable service to all customers throughout the distribution system in the most cost effective manner. The formal implementation of the new Organizational Structure was a significant accomplishment of the Division in 1982 and will provide a strong management system to provide a good level of service to all our customers in a time of great technological change and consumer awareness of utility costs.
The Distribution Group is comprised of three major activities — Construction and Maintenance, Design, and Operations. The goal of the Distribution Group is to provide a distribution system that maintains the integrity of water quality at acceptable standards and to provide uninterrupted service to all customers. I. ACCOMPLISHMENTS
While we can not expect significant accomplishments as a result of the reorganization until 1983, many programs have been started that will show significant benefits in years to come. We did, however, have several major accomplishments in 1982 worth noting.
1) Plans were completed and bids were received for the new Distribution Water Service Center. Construction started in November 1982 and is scheduled to be completed in December 1983.
2) Plans were completed and bids were received on the new dual frequency Mobile Radio System for the Division. We anticipate installation of the new system will be complete by September 1983.
3) The percentage of fire hydrants out-of-service at the end of 1982 was only 0.3%, which is 49 of the 16,580 hydrants we maintain in the City of Columbus. This is the lowest number of out-of-service at the end of any year since we have been responsible for maintaining them.
4) The Emergency Contingency Plan was completed and submitted to the Ohio EPA on time and approved for use.
5) In 1982, all the major transmission mains required to service for the new Parsons Avenue Treatment Plant were placed in service. These contracts included 6,060' of 24" 7,820' of 30", 5,540' of 36", 52,790' of 42", and 5,730' of 66", for a total dollar investment of $8,600,000.00.
6) The new leak detection equipment was used on 61 leaks that could be correlated through the computer Of these 61 leaks only seven (7) were not found at the indicated
location, i.e., we successfully pinpointed 89% of the leaks we could correlate. It should be noted that this equipment was used almost exclusively on leaks which could not be located using other methods.
We are excited about the new full time Civil Engineer Aide I approved for 1983 that will permit us to operate this equipment on a full time basis. In 1982 this equipment was only used when needed because of the limited staff.
A. CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE The Construction and Maintenance activity has the re
sponsibility of maintaining the water distribution system within the City of Columbus, Marble Cliff, Grandview Heights, Whitehall, Hilliard, Upper Arlington, Worthington, Riverlea, Minerva Park, Urbancrest, Grove City, Dublin, Brice, Valleyview, Groveport, Ridgewood Estates and Groveport. This activity also maintains the Division of Water's vehicular fleet, repairs all public fire hydrants within the City of Columbus, approves and inspects all new water service taps three inches (3") and larger and through the use of our emergency services, personnel respond to all Division of Water emergency calls at night, on weekends and holidays.
There were a total of 566 main line breaks in 1982, 2% more than in 1981. One significant statistic in the number of breaks is in the monthly distribution. Twenty-eight percent (28%) of all breaks in 1982 occurred in two (2) months, January and February. The vast majority of these breaks were on 6" and 8" gray iron pipe. The three breaks reported on Ductile Iron Pipe were all joint leaks. Tables I and I-A show a detailed summary of work performed in this activity and Main Line Break data respectively.
A total of 366 fire hydrants were repaired in 1982 with only 49 hydrants remaining out-of-service at the end of the year. As mentioned earlier, this is the lowest number of out-of-service since we took over their maintenance in 1974. Traffic type hydrants were effective in reducing repair costs for 73% of the hydrants damaged. Detailed statistics on fire hydrants is shown in Tables II and II-A.
Table III shows a summary of work performed by personnel in Vehicle Maintenance.
B. DESIGN The Design Activity is responsible for review and approv
al of all projects designed by consulting engineers and in-house preparation of plans for improvements to our distribution system and related facilities. The Design activity also develops and updates the Capital Improvement Program and prepares all legislation and modifications for these projects, maintains and updates all Division of Water Engineering records, and provides required survey and engineering support to the Division.
In 1982 there were thirteen (13) projects contracted for a total of $13,275,695.10 and twenty-nine (29) projects under construction for a dollar investment of $53,475,930.80. Tables 4 thru 8 provide details of the Division's Capital Improvement Program for 1982. We prepared fifty-four (54) pieces of legislation associated with these projects.
The major role of the Design Activity is review and approval of plans, both C.I.P. and private development types. In 1982 we reviewed plans for twenty (20) C.I.P. projects under design, eighty-three (83) Private Development plans and forty (40) Sewer and Street Improvement plans.
This activity is also responsible for obtaining permits associated with Division Improvements . In 1982 we obtained four (4) railroad permits, three (3) Corps of Engineering permits, six (6) highway crossing permits from the Ohio Department of Transportation and two (2) Federal Highway permits.
C. OPERATIONS The Operations Activity is responsible for commercial
meter repair and testing system surveillance of the distribution system, including district measurements for determining lost water from leakage and inaccurate meter registration, and the use of the Leak Detection Equipment. This activity will be responsible for the operation of the new automated, computer controlled distribution system. This $3,500,000.00 project is scheduled for bids in June and will be housed in the Operations Center that is a part of the new Distribution Water Service Center.
The Commercial Meter Repair/Testing section is charged with providing an accurate measurement of water useage by all Divisions customers and to verify that these measurements are available for billing purposes. During 1982 we successfully completed the second year of a three year commercial meter testing program. In conjunction with this program 374 test valves were installed on existing meters.
A new standard-order inventory plan was adopted in 1982 which will provide for a sufficient number of meters to be
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 19
on hand at all t imes wi thout exceeding our stock area capacities. A s u m m a r y of Commercial Meter Repair/Testing is shown in Table 9.
System Surveil lance is charged with the detection and location of underg round leakage from the distr ibution system and the moni to r ing and invest igat ion of system hydraulics. This is accompl ished through the efforts of our own personnel and the P i tometer Associates.
As ment ioned earlier, t he leak detect ion equ ipment was successful 90% of the t ime used and it is hoped the equipment can be used on a full t ime basis in 1983.
A total of fifty-two (52) flow tests were conducted in 1982 including eleven (11) special mult iple hydran t tests in the Central Business District. Other special hydraulic studies were conducted in 1982 in t h e Muirfield Area, Ackerman Road Booster Stat ion and alterations to the Cleveland Avenue Booster Station.
The Pi tometer survey accompl ished the following; 1) Diurnal Water D e m a n d Pa t t e rns were measured for 21
separate districts in the d is t r ibut ion sys tem providing consumption records and indicat ions of leakage for some 300 sq. mi. of our service area.
2) Numerous unde rg round leaks were detected, located and repaired. The combined rate of water wasted by these totaled 847,000 gallons per day. An annual savings of approximately $45,000.00 was obta ined by these repairs.
3) A total of 16 comercial meters were tested under normal operating condit ions. Five of these meters were under-registering water consumpt ions by 7 - 15% for a total unme-tered rate of 300,000 gallons per day. The correction of these metering deficiencies will provide an annual savings to the Division of more than $50,000.00.
4) The finished water meters at the M.R.W.P. were tested and found to be measur ing only 92% of the plants production.
5) P u m p i n g efficiency tes t s were conducted at Mound Street Booster Stat ion which showed the p u m p s to be operating at satisfactory levels.
6) P u m p i n g efficiency tests were comple ted following alterations to the p u m p motors at Cleveland Avenue Booster Station the need for which was indicated by earlier Pi tometer measurements . These final tests show that p u m p efficiency was a lmost doubled by rewiring the p u m p motors .
7) Hydraul ic m e a s u r e m e n t s were m a d e in conjunct ion with low pressure p rob lems near the Joyce Avenue Booster Station and near the new Grove City Tank on Groveport-London Road. S tud ies were also conduc ted to show the feasibility of supply ing A c k e r m a n Road Booster Station for D.R.W.P. instead of M.R.W.P.
8) Many cor rec t ions to t h e ex is t ing wa te r l ine records were made based on P i tomete r m e a s u r e m e n t s and observations and useful information on the condit ion of our main line valves was reported.
The pr imary object of Sys tem Survei l lance for 1983 is fairly simple. Reduce the percen t of unaccoun ted for water by finding more leakage, us ing t h e leak detect ion equ ipmen t full t ime, and mainta in the meter ing sys tem of our top fifty (50) users in good condi t ion to measu re their useage accurately.
Table 10 shows the S u m m a r y of P u m p a g e for 1982. Table 11 shows the Consumpt ion Compar i son for the last 20 years. Table 12 and 13 show the s u m m a r y of water lines in our distribution system. The County footage reflects the addition of Brookside Es ta te and Ridgewood Estates .
It is unfortunate , bu t again this year we were not able to obtain the Total Metered Water for 1982. This makes it impossible for us to calculate the pe rcen t of our p u m p a g e unaccounted for. Hopefully this p rob lem will be resolved next year so we can gauge the effectiveness of our efforts in this area. U. 1983 OBrECTIVES
1) Cont inue to provide a d is t r ibut ion sys tem that monitors the integri ty of wa te r qual i ty wi th m i n i m u m interruption of service to all cus tomers by el iminat ing major dead end water lines and replacing those water lines that have a high frequency of repair and/or water quali ty problems. We have budgeted $300,000.00 in C.I.P. 236 for 1983 to work toward this ongoing objective.
2) To comple t e the des ign of t h e Dis t r ibut ion Sys t em Automation, Contract No. 635, and advert ise for construction by Ju ly 30, 1983 at a cost not to exceed $3,290,000.00.
3) Cont inue to str ive for a reduct ion of unaccounted-for-water th rough the use of the Leak Detector, P i tometer and Associates and improving overall mete r accuracy. We will hire a new Civil Engineer Aide I by J u n e 1983 to be able to use the Leak Detector full t ime at a cost of $9,900.00. The contract with P i tomete r and Associates will cost approximately $80,000.00. The improving of mete r accuracy will be
accomplished by establishing a better testing schedule, reviewing meter sizing and Pi tometer testing, all at no additional cost.
4) Improve both mechanical and aesthetic qualities of the Division's motorized fleet by Janua ry 1985 at a minimal cost. The aesthet ic value is difficult to measure, bu t the mechanical qualities will be measured by tracking down time and cost of repairs versus productive t ime.
5) To complete the installation of the new dual frequency Mobile Radio System for the Division by September 1983 at a cost not to exceed $181,000.00.
6) To complete the new Distribution Center building on schedule within the budgeted amount of $7,250,000.00.
7) Cont inue to mainta in the out-of-service fire hydrant percentage at less than 0.5% throughout the year at a cost increase equal to the yearly inflation rate and to maintain our current policy of no two hydrants in a row being out-of-service.
8) Improve through centralization the tap inspection records by J u n e 1983 at no additional cost to the Division.
9) Initiate procedures for bet ter managemen t coordination on large main line breaks, normally 24" arid larger, but could be any size that has a serious impact on the distribution system or larger n u m b e r of cus tomers by Ju ly 1983 at no additional cost to the Division.
10) To have the 1984 — 88 C.I.P. completed by Sep tember 1, 1983 at no addit ional cost to the Division.
In conclusion, the Distribution Group is excited about what lies ahead for 1983. The potential for growth and improvements have never been better. We look forward to the completion of the new Distr ibution Water Service Center, the completion of plans and bidding of the Automation of the Distribution System and the new Mobile Radio System. All of this will help us better fullfil the goal of this Division of "Quality Water, Good Service and Reasonable Costs".

TO: Jack A. Holt, P.E., Superintendent
FROM: Kenneth W. Cosens, P.E. Water Plants Coordinator
RE: 1982 Annual Report The mission of the supply group is to provide an adequate
and reliable supply of high quality water with the best technology available, using cost effective methods.
On the average 114.5 million gallons (mil gal) of potable water were delivered daily to the distribution system during 1982 by the Morse Road and Dublin Road Water Plants. This represents an increase of 6.9 million gallons per day (mgd) over 1981, an increase of 6.4%. Two thirds of the flow was provided by the Hoover Reservoir and treated at the Morse Road Water Plant. The maximum hourly finished water pumpage rate was 211.8 mgd and the average rate for the maximum day was 160.6 mgd, both established on July 26, 1982. The latter figure of 160.6 mgd establishes a new record. Booster station pumpage was 16,218 mil gal or 44.4 mgd. Average raw water withdrawal from the sources was 124.6 mgd with 66.2% coming from the Hoover Reservoir.
During the period August through mid-November rather severe drouth conditions were experienced. Hoover Reservoir was 6 to 7 ft below levels during the same portion of 1981. By early November there was only about 100 days storage at 70 mgd demand on the Hoover Reservoir. Demand for raw water was shifted to the Scioto River supply by several actions, the major ones being the starting of the Ackerman Road and Joyce Avenue booster stations, shifting Ohio State University to the Dublin Rd system and several valve changes which shifted the pumpage until each plant delivered approximately half of the total demand. On November 21, 1982 the Hoover Reservoir pool was at elevation 869.72 the lowest for 1982, which is only slightly higher than the record low of 868.60 on March 2, 1964. Rains of November and December replenished storage to the point where the reservoir was 76% full at the end of 1982 and there was 262 days storage at 65 mgd demand rate.
Considering both plants, natural gas consumption increased 1.09% in 1982 to 77,643 thousand cubic feet (mcf) with cost of gas amounting to $257,232.62 which represents a 32.9% increase.
The total electrical energy used at the two treatment plants increased from 45,137,130 kilowatt hours (KWhr) in 1981 to 47,693,800 KWhr, an increase of 5.66% in 1982. Cost of e lect r ica l energy inc reased from $1,711,708.00 to $1,962,210.01 in 1982, representing a 14.63% increase. Cost per KWhr, including demand charges, increased at the Morse Road Water Plant from 3.775 to 4.132 cents. At the Dublin Road Water Plant costs increased from 3.819 to 4 089 cents/KWhr when comparing 1981 to 1982 values.
Chemical costs at the Dublin Road Water Plant dropped from $99.53 in 1981 to $99.14 in 1982 per million gallons of raw water treated. At the Morse Road Water Plant chemical costs experienced a similar drop from $37.55 to $37 08 per
mil gal. Total hardness and turbidity of raw water was slightly lower in 1982 than in 1981 accounting for part of the reason for the reduction in chemical use in 1982.
The principal chemicals used in coagulating and softening the water at the two plants are alum, lime and soda ash. At both plants the total tonnage of these three chemicals used, decreased in 1982 when compared with 1981 even though there was very little change in hardness or turbidity for the two years. There was a modest increase in total flow treated. At the Morse Road Water Plant this total tonnage dropped from 10,770.1 to 10,578.1 and at the Dublin Road Water Plant it dropped from 13,891 to 13,064.3. This indicates the careful attention the operators and chemists are paying to raw water quality and chemical feed amounts required to provide proper treatment.
There were six power outages at the Dublin Road Water Plant during 1982 accounting for 7 hrs and 35 minutes of down time. At the Morse Road Water Plant there was one outage in 1982 which shut down only the B plant for 1 hr 30 min. Parsons Avenue Plant experienced fifteen power outages during 1982. The outage of March 9 triggered a malfunctioning valve and caused flooding of lower levels of the plant, delaying plant startup by nearly a year and causing many hundred thousands of dollars damage to equipment which had to be replaced.
By the end of 1982 progress at the Parsons Avenue Water Plant indicates that before mid 1983 the plant should be placed in operation. The wells have all been pumped at full capacity. Principal delays were associated with the March 1982 flooding of lower levels of the plant.
All water quality requirements of the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency and the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act were met during the year 1982 except the Nitrate-N requirement at the Dublin Road Water Plant. When the nitrates, reported as N, exceeded 10 milligrams/liter (mg/L) on June 23, 1982 this fact was reported to the media in conformance with Ohio EPA requirements. Levels exceeded 10 mg/L through July 8, 1982.
Taste and odor problems, commonly attributed to summer growth of plankton, did not develop at either water plant. A stubborn taste and odor problem persisted during the spring runoff months at the Dublin Road Water Plant. Powdered activated carbon and potassium permanganate were used in varying dosages to reduce severity of the taste and odor problems. The plant operators and chemists have met with the Water Research Laboratory staff to mount a more effective deterrent program for the next taste and odor season.
Laboratories at all three water treatment plants are certified in both the microbiological and chemical areas. Two or th ree staff are cer t i f ied at each l abora to ry in the microbiological area and from three to seven staff are certified in the chemical area at each laboratory. Four members of the Water Research Laboratory staff are collectively certified in their respective laboratories for all Safe Drinking Water Act parameters except radio activity and pesticides.
During 1982 major administrative reorganization was put into operation. The supply group, subdivided into five areas of activity, consists of the three water plants, the Water Research Laboratory and the Technical Support Group.
The Alum Creek Pump Station has been repaired and brought through several periods of short runs. Each 35 mgd pump has been operated for a short period, in order to assure that it will be operational when needed. Maintenance and major repairs to this station have been provided by the Morse Road Water Plant staff. A program has been set up to operate each of the two pumps approximately three hours monthly at off-peak hours.
An emergency contingency plan, developed by the Division, was put into operation. It was approved by the Ohio EPA. An important adjunct of the emergency contingency plan was the refinement of the strike plan. The supply group staff contributed in a major way to the preparation of these plans.
The supply staff has been very active in presenting papers in technical and research areas supporting water quality parameters. Several technical papers have been published in national publications during 1982. Numerous papers have been presented to a variety of organizations, including the following: American Water Works Association Ohio Section, International Association for Great Lakes Research, OTCO Workshops, Soil Conservation Service Seminars, Ohio State University Seminars, Battelle Technical Meetings, American Chemical Society and AWWA Water Quality Technology Conference.
The Water Research Laboratory organized and made major presentations at the DOW Technical Meeting and at the
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 27
Nitrate Summit , both meet ings were hosted at the Dublin Road Water Plant .
Two staff m e m b e r s actively part icipated in AWWA's Volatile Organic Chemical Workshops and two different staff at tended the 1982 AWWA Water Quality Technology Conference.
Large n u m b e r s of plant staff have retired dur ing the 1982 year. Most have been replaced. There was a serious shortage of maintenance and operat ing staff at the Morse Road Water Plant necessitat ing excessive overt ime dur ing the year. Extreme difficulties have been exper ienced in replacing retired staff and procur ing new staff for approved positions.
The new m a i n t e n a n c e and inven tory activity is being staffed within the Technical Suppor t Group. Most of this activity has been deferred to 1983. A. DUBLIN ROAD WATER PLANT Report on the Scioto River Plankton Survey for 1982.
The Survey followed most ly the procedures established during the 1981 Survey where the Griggs and Intake Reservoirs were checked regularly by weekly samples. A slight variance occurred at O 'Shaughnessy Reservoir where a few microscopic samples were taken in addit ion to the Reservoir being periodically checked visually for algae.
The Survey at Stat ion No. 4, Dubl in Rd. Intake and at Station No. 2., Griggs Dam began 4 May, while that at Station No. 1, Griggs Dam began 13 May. Collecting at Station No. 1 terminated 25 Augus t as it could no longer be reached, while the Survey at Sta t ions 2 and 4 terminated 3 November.
Some algae were presen t dur ing May but considerable turbidity in Griggs dur ing J u n e resul ted in low numbers of algae. However, dur ing the first two weeks of Ju ly there was an enormous influx of the genus Tribonema. an alga usually found in small ponds , pools, or backwaters . Its sudden presence in a reservoir such a Griggs is not explained here. By the third week it had d isappeared .
At Stat ions 1 and 2 th roughou t the summer , and mainly at No. 2 dur ing Sep tember , the n u m b e r s of numerous algae remained moderate ly high, bu t none were serious in numbers or kind. In fact no ser ious odor or flavor contr ibutors such as were presen t dur ing 1978 and 1979 were noted during 1982. Zooplankters were generally numerous throughout the summer .
The Dublin Road In take algal pat tern is usually similar to that at Griggs. In 1982, the In t ake dur ing the first two weeks of May had a high popula t ion of d ia toms, none of which were necesarily serious for water quality. By the early part of June , turbidi ty had reduced the n u m b e r of algae which did not again appear in quan t i ty unti l Tribonema appeared during early July, as it did at Griggs. It also disappeared late in July. Diatoms generally accounted for modera te populat ions of algae d u r i n g A u g u s t and into S e p t e m b e r when Melosira and Synedra became dominant . This dominance along with n u m e r o u s zooplankters cont inued th roughout October bu t d iminished in November . N u m b e r s and kinds of algae were never serious enough to require algicidal treatment.
O ' S h a u g h n e s s y R e s e r v o i r s a m p l e s d u r i n g J u n e and September and periodic observat ions indicated no real need for regular samples . Turbid i ty well into the s u m m e r eliminated to a great ex ten t the produc t ion of phytop lankton and much of the shore-line algae. Blooms of blue-green algae such as occurred dur ing the s u m m e r s of 1978 and 1979 were non-existent.
The summer of 1982 jo ins those of 1980 and 1981 as being an unusual year from the s tandpoin t of algal growth. There have been few algae excep t the peculiar influx of Tribonema. and none that can be accused of p roducing odors and flavors.

B. MORSE ROAD WATER PLANT Report on the Hoover Reservoir Plankton Survey for 1982
The 1982 Survey began 19 May and cont inued with some interruptions at some Sta t ions d u e to weather and person
nel problems until terminated on the last collecting date, 4 November.
The 1982 Survey followed in general the procedures established dur ing preced ing years . Algae at the three lower basin Stations were relatively sparse most of the summer, and especially so at Station No. 3 near the Dam throughout May and June . The peak abundance of algae in the lower basin occurred between 26 August and 16 September when Melosira r eached its m a x i m u m . Blue-green algae were almost non-exis tent wi th Aphanizomenon and Anabaena having occurred only two or three times, and then only as individual tr ichomes.
The deeper waters behind the Dam generally had few algae, t h o u g h the re was an increase in Melosira dur ing September. This however, was never abundan t enough to cause problems. Organisms most prevalent were zooplankters, Copepods and Cladoecrans. Iron and sulfur bacteria were never dominant in any of the depth samples during 1982 as they were during 1981.
The Morse Road Intake, as always, was largely free of algae. Some Melosira and Navicula was noted in late J u n e and early July, while another small increase of these diatoms along with Cyclotella appeared during the latter part of September.
Algae were sparse in Hoover Reservoir during the summer of 1982 and algicidal t rea tment was not necessary. 1983 Objectives
1. To return No.'s 2, 8 & 9 "A" filters to service at an estimated cost of $65,000.00, whenever C.I.P. money is available.
2. To pull one of the "A" high service pumps for inspection, at no additional cost, using Parsons Avenue and Morse Road personnel.
3. To install steel s ludge chain in 1 of the 2 softening basins, if it is received in t ime to install during 1983.
4. To repair screen outlet valve at Alum Creek P u m p i n g Sta t ion . The re will be some e q u i p m e n t ren ta l required.
5. To renew high service meter ing when C.I.P. money is available.
6. To have better control on stock received and inventoried, by better planning and use of the stockroom personnel.
7. To hand le c o n s u m e r compla in ts , as received, in a satisfactory manner and without delay.
8. To operate within the assigned budget in a more professional manner and at reduced overtime cost.
C PARSONS AVENUE WATER PLANT The Parsons Avenue Water Plant was scheduled to be
completed in 1981. Due to unforeseen delays, the plant will not be operational until 1983. The delays resulted from design modifications, contractor financial difficulties, poor subcontractor workmanship , and faulty equipment .
During the evening of March 9, 1982, a power failure triggered the opening of a 10" surge anticipator valve on the 60" finished water header. When the valve failed to close properly after a normal t ime delay, the excess water overflowed into the p u m p room basement , the filter building pipe gallery, and the chemical building sub-basement . The resultant 9 foot deep water caused several hundred thousand dollars damage to electrical and control equipment . The damaged equipment is supposed to be replaced in 1983.
The collector well p u m p s were tes ted in Augus t and Sep tember . E x c e p t for m ino r p r o b l e m s and p u n c h list items, the City is satisfied with their performance.
Both the chemical and microbiological labs were certified by the Ohio EPA. All the operating personnel were also certified. The microbiological lab has been used by the Research Lab since August , 1982 for the Division's distribution sampling program. 1983 Objectives
1. To operate plant by Ju ly 1, 1983. 2. To acquire South Well Field property. 3. To institute 12-hour shift. 4. To acquire an adequate staff to operate and maintain
plant. 5. To provide adequa te equ ipment for maintenance per
sonnel. D. TECHNICAL SUPPORT GROUP

1982 Accomplishments During 1982 an interregnum of some 3'/2 months occurred
in the Technical Support Group, as the position of Chief was vacant from the beginning of April through the middle of July. Although this disruption had an effect upon the year's business, several significant items were accomplished, as follows:
Centralized Maintenance and Inventory. By working with the consultant for the study and development phase of this program, cost/benefit data, staffing requirements and job descriptions were developed. Data processing equipment specifications were developed and equipment procured. Personnel will be provided in 1983 to proceed with this program, with its anticipated benefits to the Division.
Dublin Road Water Plant. Investigated the problems associated with the frequent power interruptions to their facility. Specifications have been prepared for revisions to the chlorine system to eliminate maintenance problems created by these power interruptions. Cost studies begun preparatory to recommendations for power supply revisions.
Morse Road Water Plant. Replaced Water Engineers' personnel as liaison to the current construction work on concrete revisions at this plant.
Parsons Avenue Water Plant. Progress toward completion of this facility was essentially halted during 1982 by the flooding of the construction work which occurred on March 9, 1982. During the balance of the year, Technical Support assisted in determining the required replacements of flood-damaged equipment, and in facilitating those replacements. Technical Support will be intensively involved in the actual plant and control system startup, now expected in mid-1983.
Alum Creek Raw Water Pumping Station. Techincal Support assisted in the repairs and adjustments required to make the instrumentation and control equipment in this station functional again, preparatory to periodic "exercising" of the station. We are involved in developing criteria for the consultant who will be writing an operation and maintenance manual for the facility.
Morrison Road Booster Station Enlargement. Worked with the consultant for this project, in order to assure that all pertinent Division comments upon the design were properly handled.
Smoky Row Booster Station. Assisted Morse Road Water Plant maintenance personnel in servicing the controls damaged in this system by freezing. Provided technical information required for servicing the control equipment. Restored the automatic controls to stable operation by gradually restoring the process controller to its former tuning. Obtained missing operation and maintenance instructions from the contractor for the facility. 1983 Objectives
1. To carry forward current work not completed in 1982, especially the Maintenance and Inventory program.
2. To provide technical liaison to the construction of the Morrison Road Booster Station Enlargement and the Division of Water Service Center.
3. To undertake such additional or revised projects as the Supply Manager or the Superintendent may direct.
E. WATER RESEARCH LABORATORY The challenge of the Water Research Laboratory (WRL) is
to serve customers by insuring that potable water meets or exceeds the water quality requirements of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act regarding water quality, and to ascertain that the most current developments in water treatment and testing are used. Certified personnel, knowledgeable in chemistry, biology, instrument analysis quality control and water treatment practices, are dedicated to continually upgrading the safety and palatability of Columbus drinking water. Our professional staff is ready to respond to water quality emergencies, caused by natural event or human intervention, and is prepared to use all possible resources to maintain high water quality during such times. Other areas ot responsibility include monitoring and improving raw
water supplies, developing methods to preserve water treatment and water distribution facilities, and optimizing water treatment costs. Finally, the WRL is committed to providing information to residential customers, business, industry, and the educational community through talks, correspondence, and publications relating to treatment techniques, testing improvements, and research results. 1983 Objectives
The WRL has over 120 discrete projects each one of which is replete with its respective goals and objectives. A WRL 5-year plan, with time lines, will be completed by mid-March 1983.
WRL 1983 goals can be condensed into the following general statements:
1. To study and research water quality parameters in an effort to adopt the most satisfactory treatment methods for maintaining a high quality, potable water.

16. Organized the DOW techincal meeting. Presented below are the WRL section reports which con
tain summaries and relevant data: Biological and Environmental Research. 1982 Microbiological Analysis:
The Water Research Labora tory (WRL) had a qualified microbiologist on staff in 1982, that was directly involved in the bacteriological moni tor ing program. This deviates from previous p rac t i ce , s i nce h is tor ica l ly the bacter io logical program had been executed by non-microbiologists. The program has been upgraded substantial ly and significant advances were m a d e towards a stream-lined centralized operation. A central bacteriological laboratory was established at the Parsons Avenue Water P lan t th rough cooperative actions of DRWP, MRWP, PAWP, and WRL personnel . The laboratory and personnel received State of Ohio certification for bacteriological test ing in J u n e , 1982. Centralization of testing provides a more efficient, higher quality program. For the last half of 1982 the central laboratory processed approximately 3,000 samples . Resul t s of dis t r ibut ion system monitoring are presen ted in the annual reports of *he respective plants .
Water Research Labora tory personnel collaborated with Ohio State Universi ty researchers in a s tudy to determine the presence, d is t r ibut ion and control of Legionella in the Columbus water d is t r ibut ion sys tem and University Hospital. This s tudy (begun J u n e 1, 1982) is still cont inuing and a final repor t is s c h e d u l e d in 1983. A cont rac t a m o u n t of $82,979.00 was appropr ia ted to cover personnel , materials and other direct costs. A total of $32,254.20 had been expended by December , 1982.
Chlorine res iduals wi th in the dis t r ibut ion system were also invest igated resul t ing in a practical , appl ied understanding of the re la t ionship be tween some physical/chemical parameters and chlor ine residuals. As a consequence , chlorine residuals have been improved in several areas.
The water d is t r ibut ion sys tem was moni tored to delineate the distr ibution boundar ies of the Morse Road and Dublin Road Water P lants . This required frequent sampl ing in the latter half of 1982 in response to numerous distr ibution system valving changes in an effort to conserve the MRWP's raw water supply. Chlor ide was the parameter used to analytically de te rmine the source of the water in quest ion.
Rout ine d i s t r ibu t ion sys tem sample points and routes were evaluated, resu l t ing in several changes to improve sampling coverage and sample representat iveness . Metal Analysis:
Heavy metal moni tor ing in t h e dis t r ibut ion system, water plants, and raw water supply cont inued in 1982. Distribution system grab samples were collected in 14 pressure districts, utilizing sampl ing sites es tabl ished in previous years. Monthly composi te samples of raw and finished water were collected at the Dubl in Road Water P lan t (DRWP) and the Morse Road Water P lan t (MRWP). All samples were analyzed for a luminum, arsenic, bar ium, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, manganese , mercury , nickel, selenium, silver, sodium and zinc. T h e analytical methodology employed is precise and accurate , giving results at concentrations as low as 0.0001 mg/L (100 parts per trillion). It would have cost $34,000.00 to have this metal analysis done in a commercial laboratory. Resul t s are presented in Table 1-5.
New Federa l regulat ions require moni tor ing of dr inking water for sodium. Biological and Envi ronmenta l Research staff (WRL) developed an effective analytical method for sodium analysis utilizing a tomic absorpt ion. The Water Research Laboratory has provisional certification for this technique and should receive full certification in 1983. Sodium
concentrations can be used effectively and efficiently to dis-tinquish DRWP drinking water from MRWP drinking water when soda ash is being used at the DRWP.
The 1982 Columbus drinking water contained concentrations of arsenic, bar ium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, selenium and silver far below the max imum contaminant level's established by the Safe Drinking Water Act. The metal data indicate that Columbus drinking water generally exhibits a low corrosion potential to consumers plumbing. However, more test ing of water which remains in contact with plumbing overnight needs to be undertaken.
The DRWP and MRWP taps were monitored for zinc to ascertain proper feed rates of zinc-orthophosphate (ZOP). Monthly composite data indicate that the ZOP feed rate is much more accurate at the DRWP than at the MRWP. ZOP concentration at the MRWP is apparently below effective dosages for periods of t ime dur ing the summer months , because of feed fluctuations. Seven distribution system sites were monitored for zinc and copper to assist in evaluating the effectiveness of ZOP in corrosion control. Approximately 245 samples were analyzed for zinc and copper.
As in previous years raw water heavy metal concentrat ions were generally h igher at the D R W P (Scioto River watershed) than at the MRWP (Big Walnut Creek watershed). Metal pulses are associated with runoff and do not indicate significant anthropogenic (man-made) contamination. An exception is the presence of mercury throughout most of the year at DRWP. Nutrient Analysis:
Water s a m p l e s for n u t r i e n t a n a l y s i s w e r e co l l ec ted approximately every two weeks from Grigg's, O'Shaughnessy, Alum Creek and Hoover Reservoirs, the Scioto River at 1-270 nor th and from the Dublin Road Water P lan t and Morse Road Water Plant raw water intakes. A total of 175 samples were collected and analyzed for total Kjeldahl nitrogen, ni tr i te-ni trogen, ni t rate-ni t rogen, ammonia , total-phosphorus and or tho-phosphorus . Analytical results are presented in Tables 6-12.
As in previous years the Scioto River watershed exhibited higher nutr ient levels than either the Alum Creek or Big Walnut Creek (Hoover Reservoir) watersheds during high flow periods. The highest nitrate concentrat ion (13.9 mg/L) occurred on 6/30/82 at the Grigg's Reservoir sample site. This concentration is higher than any nitrate concentrat ion recorded during a similar sampling period in 1981.
Nutrient monitoring not only gives useful watershed information, but also aids in the water t rea tment area. The total Kjeldahl nitrogen componen t contains fractions which can impar t flavors to d r ink ing water . Kjeldahl ni t rogen monitoring during taste and odor events gives information helpful in determining the best water t rea tment strategy. More distribution system samples need to be analyzed to ascertain the fate of the total Kjeldahl nitrogen after this componen t passes t h rough the water p lants . Ammonia , when present in the raw water, creates a chlorine demand, which requires more chlor ine to reach breakpoint . This situation creates problems for the water plant operator in determining correct chlorine feed rates. Ammonia monitoring would provide informat ion for de te rmin ing correct chlorine dosages which would result in a bet ter quality water.
Nu t r i en t ana lyses of wa te r s ample s from the rou t ine watershed monitor ing program were performed by the Surveillance Laboratory of the Division of Sewerage and Drainage at a cost of $5,544.00 in 1982. The same sample protocal would cost $8,820.00 in 1983. The Water Research Laboratory is bringing ins t rumentat ion on-line (as described in the Water Quality Research section) to perform nutr ient analyses, which will defray these costs. Water Quality Research Regulatory Compliance and Quality Assurance
The Columbus water system is in full compliance with all Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), PL-93-523, primary and secondary regulations. A brief SDWA nitrate violation was followed by public notification and is reported in a following section.
Division of Water laboratories are certified to perform all SDWA testing except for radioactivity and pesticide/herbicide parameters . Dublin Road Water Plant temporari ly lost coliform test certification while method and record-keeping changes were made. Morse Road Water Plant maintained testing continuity for both plants while bacterial certification was received at Parsons Avenue Water Plant for centralized microbiological testing.
The Water Research Laboratory (WRL) coordinates the performance of all SDWA compliance monitoring, thus ensuring that frequencies, deadlines, certification and report-
30 DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982
ing requirements are met. Currently the WRL has certified status for nine metals, including sodium, and trina-lomethanes (THMs). Performance Evaluation samples were submitted to the WRL by the USEPA. Four pesticide compounds, eight metals and four THMs were analyzed in two concentrations. Only selenium and bromoform caused analysts minor difficulties. Neither parameter required re-testing. Both compounds and pesticide certification are targeted for additional emphasis in 1983.
Quality assurance programs were expanded this year tor nitrate and THM testing. Initial development of quality control checks were initiated for fluoride and pesticide analyses. Quarterly introduction of spike reference samples for WRL chemists, plant chemists and operational staff will commence in 1983. Occasional blind spiked samples will be introduced. The importance of a highly visible quality assurance program for all phases of water plant operation cannot be overemphasized. This is equally true for contaminant monitoring and research activities. Nitrate Control Strategy Development.
During 1981 non-certified test analyses for nitrate identified the likelihood of exceeding the SDWA, maximum contaminant level (MCL) of 10 mg/L, N03 as N, in Dublin Road Water Plant finished water. Upon OEPA recommendation more frequent certified nitrate testing was performed during a similar period in 1982. Laboratory analyses identified 18 days when the MCL was violated from 6/22/82 through 7/9/82. Public notification, which is required for MCL violations, was accomplished by a press conference and resulted in hundreds of consumer inquiries about the health effects of the high nitrate water. Bottled water consumption was great during the period of the MCL violation.
Prior to violation of the MCL and following the event three areas were focused upon to identify the source of the nitrate and develop ways to prevent reoccurrence of the MCL violation. The areas investigated are as follows: a) research and monitoring programs b) interaction with cooperating agencies c) educational program development A sampling program to determine the impact of nonpoint
sources, on the elevated Scioto River nitrate levels began in 1982. The sub-basin watershed of Bokes Creek in Union County was selected because it is free of any major point source impact, and is considered to be representative of the Upper Scioto Basin. A gauging station was needed to evaluate flow on Bokes Creek. Arrangements were made with USGS for such an installation near the mouth of Bokes Creek and Rt. 257. The station was operational by early spring.
Data collected from many locations along the Creek, including farm tile effluent, at a range of water flows, demonstrated the impact of nonpoint source nitrate on Bokes Creek and the Scioto River. Effluent from field tile drainage approached 30 mg/L N03-N during storm events and is considered a major contributor to high nitrate levels. Extrapolations from the Bokes Creek watershed indicate that the nitrate contribution from nonpoint sources to the Scioto River above O'Shaughnessy following spring fertilization represents more than 95% of the total nitrate present during very high flow conditions and greater than 80% during typical river stage.
Monitoring will continue in Bokes Creek in 1983 to add to our own baseline knowledge of agricultural effects on water supply and quality. Parameters to be studied will include pesticide levels, taste and odor potential, water hardness, nutrient and rainfall runoff patterns.
Many key individuals within important cooperating agencies were contacted to coordinate an understanding of the nitrate problem. OEPA officials were helpful during public notification but were slow to categorize the Upper Scioto as a Category I, Nonpoint Source Water Quality Problem Area. This was accomplished, however, late this year.
A meeting of concerned individuals representing State, Local and private interests was held July 22, 1982 ("Nitrate Summit" — proceedings available upon request from WRL). A general conclusion that much more research is needed in the area of nonpoint source water pollution was reached. Also, a committee was formed to investigate research direction and funding. This committee is responsible for reporting to the Policy Advisory Committee of the Scioto River Basin.
Interrelationships formed during investigating the nitrate problem focused attention on the need for a handbook detailing agencies and individuals involved with agriculture practice and water quality/resource management. Development of such a guide is a goal for 1983.
Informing as many people as possible of the relationship
between farming practices and water quality is an essential element of the overall nitrate control strategy.
The agricultural effects on Columbus water supply and an economic analysis of fertilizer nutrient consumption provided the basis for a three-panel poster presentation.
A photographic study of the Bokes Creek Research Area highlighted the display.
Poster-sized graphs depicting nitrogen fertilizer consumption increases, rising nutrient costs, and usage shifts played to one central theme: nitrogen use is increasing as fertilizer prices continue to rise.
Charts and maps, including a comparison of the Upper Scioto and Big Walnut watersheds and consumption adjusted fertilizer cost analysis provide additional information. Data was provided by the on-going agricultural research undertaken by the WRL staff.
This presentation was on display at an Ohio Chapter meeting of a national soil conservation society. Additional showings are scheduled.
Additionally, the WRL has added laboratory equipment and a laboratory technician to take over much of the nitrate analysis needs. The Technicon Auto Analyzer will also be able to supply data for all other nutrients and the Total Organic Carbon parameter.
Even with additional equipment, manpower and a highly coordinated research and educational effort, prevention of another SDWA violation is not guaranteed. The DRWP source water will always be more vulnerable to contamination since this watershed is very large with small storage reservoirs (with the opposite being true for the MRWP source). Therefore, the feasibility of supplying DRWP customers with an alternate source during high nitrate episodes must be evaluated. Contaminant Identification:
Herbicide testing was conducted on a limited basis this year. Only the Scioto River and DRWP tap were targeted for monitoring. This source has previously shown higher concentrations of herbicides than the Big Walnut Creek source. Some effort was made to reduce finished water contamination by treatment alteration and is presented in other sections of this report. Concentra t ions of Alachlor and Metoachlor were similar in both raw and tap water except during powdered activated carbon treatment which reduced their levels. The combined total of both compounds was at times greater than 10 ug/1. Other pesticide compounds are likely at various concentrations from agricultural runoff in the Scioto River watershed. Additional trained laboratory personnel and equipment acquisition will expand the number of samples and pesticides parameters examined in 1983. Toxicological information indicates the compounds identified have not been extensively studied, however they are, generally, categorized as moderately toxic.
Additional investigations have shown sporadic occurrence of other organics at trace levels in our raw water supplies.
Contract laboratory analyses occasionally identify low levels of several volatile organic chemical (VOC) compounds.
Tetrachloroethylene. trichloroethene, and carbon tetrachloride have been identified in DRWP finished water samples at values less than 1 ug/1. While these levels are well under suggested no adverse effect concentrations and well below proposed MCLs, future efforts will seek their source or sources which could include contamination during sample handling.
Several special analytical studies were undertaken in 1982. A contract laboratory examined two DRWP tap samples and a raw water for semi-volatile organic identification. A Closed-Loop Stripping Apparatus (CLSA) was used for sample concentration. Identification of compounds was accomplished by gas chromatography in conjunction with mass spectrometry. Using this technique aldehydes were detected in a 7/16/82 sampling of DRWP tap water. One compound, dodecanal, was at a significant concentration of 4.8 ug/1. A second sampling, 10/5/82, of raw and tap water did not detect the presence of the aldehydes, however other compounds were detected at very low levels in tap but not raw water samples. The compounds detected by this method are thought to have natural biological origins, except THM and the VOCs, and are not considered harmful. Synthetic organic chemicals (SOCs) of concern were not detected during these tests.
Water Treatment Research 1982 Disinfection By-product Monitoring:
Total trihalomethane (TTHM) and total organic halidie
DIVISION OF WATER. COLUMBUS. OHIO 1982 31
(TOX) monitor ing programs cont inued in 1982. The running annual averages for t r iha lomethanes were well below the max imum contaminan t level (MCL) or 0.10 mg/1, based on required quarter ly compl iance samples (DRWP 0.05 mg/1 OMRWP 0.07 mg/1). In-house TTHM and TOX monitoring consisted of month ly grap samples a t 8 distr ibution points, and four monthly composi te samples at plant taps and two distribution points , the annual averages based on these samples are shown in Tables 16 and 17. The concentrat ion profiles are shown in Figures 2, 3, and 4. Some TOX degradation was observed dur ing storage on montly composites of distribution samples dur ing s u m m e r months . Total Organic Halaide Characterizat ion:
The TOX concentra t ion is expressed as micrograms per liter of chlorine. The total organic halide can be classified into purgeable organic halide (POX) which includes mostly TTHM, and nonpurgeab l e organic halide (NPOX), which according to recent findings may be heavily represented by chlorinated fatty acids such as dichloroacetic, trichloroacetic, dichloropropionic, chlorosuccinic, dichlorosuccinic and dichloromaleic.
We have contracted with Battelle to look for these compounds in our finished water. (DOW Contract #00982). The results will be available in early 1983. Knowledge of TOX chemistry will assist our efforts to reduce formation and develop removal me thods . TOX Analyses:
TOX moni tor ing procedures were improved during 1982. The improved me thod permi ts bet ter reproducibil i ty and more accurate results. An impor tan t part of the progress was an improved sample preservat ion method which was developed by our l abora to ry and which m a y be widely accepted by other laboratories. Capillary Gas Chromatography (CGC):
The chromatographic capillary t echn ique (CGC) is a state-of-the-art me thod for t h e analysis of organic compounds which the WRL developed dur ing 1982. The main advantages of a capillary co lumn is bet ter separation of complex mixtures of ogranic c o m p o u n d s . This me thod enables us to detect more con taminan t s in the water and s tudy their removal dur ing water t rea tment . The capillary technique was applied to t r iha lomethane analysis, which resulted in an improved analytical me thod . Another application was the de
velopment by WRL of an "organic scan" procedure in which organic contaminants are concentrated on carbon then de-sorbed by a solvent, resulting in an concentration factor of 100, then subsequent qualitative analysis of the complex mixture by (CGC). Figure 5 is an example of an organic scan of DRWP tap analysed 3/1/82 during a serious taste and odor event. Three peaks (A, B, D) represent t r ihalomethanes. A fourth peak (C) has been identified as dichloroacetonitrile, Dichloroacetonitri le (DCAN) is formed as a chlorination byproduct under ph 9, The DCAN concentration in DRWP tap is a round 5 ug/1 . This c o m p o u n d was found to be mutagenic in the Ames test. We are working on identification of other unknown peaks, which are suspected taste and odor producers.
Figure 6 is an organic scan of DRWP tap water analysed on 7/14/82 during our plant trail for pesticide removal. There are again three t r iha lomethanes and dichloroacetonitrile. Some previously high unknown peaks were lower at this time. Taste and Odor Problems:
In D e c e m b e r 1982 p r e p a r a t i o n s were s t a r t ed for t h e annua l late win ter t as te and odor even t which usual ly accompanies the first runoff after a long freeze. Agreement was reached among supply staff that these problems should be eliminated. Different t rea tment options were developed that will be used if needed in 1983. These corrective measures would increase the t rea tment cost. Alternative Disinfectants:
The possibility of using alternative disinfectants in the future was again cons ide red in 1982. Chlor ine dioxide, which would reduce the t r ihalomethane and total organic halide formation and which would also help in taste and odor treatment, is a pr ime candidate for the follow-up evaluation planned for early 1983. Consumer Complaints:
A comparat ive s tudy of consumer complaints shows the serious increases in taste and odor problems in 1982 caused by runoff. Corrosion related complaints (rusty water) may be decreasing at MRWP but a rash of complaints at DRWP in March, April and May were of u n k n o w n cause. Hydrant flushing in June , Ju ly and August caused almost no problems in the DRWP system.

DEBT LIMITATIONS
There are two direct limitations on indebtedness, one for bonds and notes issued without vote of the people (5 .5% of the City's assessed valuation) and one for the total indebtedness (10.5% of the City's assessed valuation).
In the calculation of both of these limitations certain issues are exempt .
Exempt ions in the limited category are assessment, special urban redevelopment, and enterprise issues (excluding division of electricity issues).
Exempt ions in the total indebtedness also include federal assistance issued (U-FA) and regular urban redevelopment (U-UR). Issues not exempt are designated (U-NE) in the 1983 requirement schedule.
There is also an indirect limit on bonds and notes issued wi thout voter approval. This limit includes interest payment as well as principal payment . The Ohio Consti tution states that the amount of unvoted bonds and notes that can be issued by overlapping political sub-divisions cannot exceed an amount that can be serviced by a ten mill tax on the assessed valuation, regardless of whether the particular bonds and notes are exempt from direct limits and regardless of whether they may be serviced from enterprise revenues or o ther sources other than property taxes.
