Explanation
1. Background
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from TWO25 COMMONS, LLC, asking the City to allow the installation of a pedestrian bridge over and within Rich Street, just west of the intersection with Third Street, within the public right-of-way. The proposed bridge will extend from an existing parking garage on the south side of Rich Street to a proposed new 12-story building on the north side of Rich Street. During the design phase of the proposed building it was determined that for safety reasons the pedestrian bridge was warranted. The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary for the City to grant the aerial and foundation encroachment easements that will legally allow the installation of the pedestrian bridge to extend over and within the public rights-of-way of Rich Street. A value of $1,000.00 was established for the two encroachment easements.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City is not expending funds as part of this ordinance. The City will receive a total of $1,000.00 to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for granting the requested encroachment easements.
