Title: To authorize the Director of the Department of Public Utilities to execute those documents necessary to grant 0.112 + acres of City owned real property located in the vicinity of Griggs Reservoir, in exchange for a warranty deed of equal acreage to be granted to City of Columbus in order to alleviate an existing encroachment onto City property; to waive the Land Review Commission provisions of the Columbus City Codes (1959) and to declare an emergency.
Explanation
 
Background: During a boundary survey of Griggs Reservoir, certain permanent structures, including, but not limited to, a gravel driveway, retaining wall and a portion of an aeration system were discovered to have encroached onto a 0.112 + acre portion of real property owned by the City of Columbus, located in the vicinity of Dublin Road and Med-O-Mac Drive.  It has been determined that Linda M. Mosure is the owner of the encroaching structures and of the real property adjacent to the City's property.  The City of Columbus and Linda M. Mosure have been in correspondence with each other in an attempt to reach an agreement, which will alleviate the encroachment issue as well as allow the property owner access to his property.  After investigation by the Recreation and Parks Department, and the Department of Public Utilities, Division of Water, it has been determined that in its best interest, the City should grant the subject portion of land to Linda M. Mosure in exchange for real property of the same acreage to be granted to the City.  The exchange has been determined to equitable and therefore no money will be involved.  This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Utilities to execute those documents necessary to grant the aforementioned real property in exchange for property of equitable acreage.
 
Fiscal Impact:  N/A
 
Emergency Justification:  The subject permanent structure presently encroaches on the City's real property and therefore emergency action is requested to have this issue immediately alleviated without delay.
