Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
In 2015, pursuant to Ordinance 2516-2015, the City of Columbus accepted easements within a subdivision known as Barrett Subdivision, as recorded within Plat Book 119 Pages 54 & 55. The Department of Public Service recently received a request from Barrett SF LLC, asking that the City release a portion of two easement areas within the subdivision to clear title, satisfy Franklin County Engineers Office, and redevelop the site. After receipt of this request Public Service Division of Infrastructure Management verified with all the public and private utility companies that there are no public utilities nor a need for these easements located within the requested area and they have no objections to these portions of easements being released. This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary to release the portions of easements described below and attached as an exhibit, and previously platted as needed to redevelop the real property.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City will receive a total of $500.00, to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for releasing the easements so the property can be redeveloped.
