City bond rating upgraded
S&P visited in person for the first time ever and reaffirmed the city's AA-minus bond rating while upgrading the water bond rating from A-plus to AA-minus. That means lower borrowing costs for future city projects.
Grant writer contract with Hicks Partners LLC
The city wants to keep paying a Columbus firm about $78,000 a year to find and write grants — money that has brought in $750,000 so far, with more pending. Council agreed it's cheaper than hiring a full-time staffer.
