Explanation
1. Background:
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from Nationwide Children's Hospital asking that the City sell them a 0.067 acre portion of the right-of-way identified as the north-south alley known as Lisle Alley east of Parsons Avenue between Livingston Avenue and Denton Street, and a 0.074 acre portion of the right-of-way indentified as the east-west alley known as Denton Alley south of Livingston Avenue between Parsons Avenue and Lisle Alley. Transfer of these rights-of-way will allow for the development of property adjacent to the above named rights-of-way, currently owned by Nationwide Children's Hospital.
Per current practice, comments were solicited from interested parties, including City agencies, private utilities and the applicable area commission, before it was determined that, subject to the retention of a general utility easement for those utilities currently located within these rights-of-way, the City will not be adversely affected by the transfer of these rights-of-way.
Then Department of Public Service submitted a request to the Department of Law, Real Estate Division, asking that they establish a value for these rights-of-way. A value of $32,704.00 was established for these rights-of-way. After review of the request, the Land Review Commission voted to recommend the above referenced rights-of-way be transferred to Nationwide Children's Hospital for $32,704.00.
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
The City will receive a total of $32,704.00 that will be deposited in Fund 748, Project 537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested rights-of-way.
