Explanation

These plats have been reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. The following legislation allows the City to accept said plats for property located north of Lehman Road and west off of Bowen Road.
Title
To accept the plats titled CANAL CROSSING SECTION 1 and CANAL CROSSING SECTION 2, from CENTEX HOMES, a Nevada General Partnership, by CENTEX REAL ESTATE CORPORATION, a Nevada Corporation, Managing Partner, by Joseph H. Mathias, Division President and to declare an emergency.
Body
WHEREAS, the plats titled CANAL CROSSING SECTION 1 and CANAL CROSSING SECTION 2 (hereinafter "plats"), have been submitted to the City Engineer's Office for approval and acceptance; and
WHEREAS, CENTEX HOMES, a Nevada General Partnership, by CENTEX REAL ESTATE CORPORATION, a Nevada Corporation, Managing Partner, by Joseph H. Mathias, Division President, owners of the platted land, desires to dedicate to the public use all or such parts of the Boulevard, Drives and Road shown on said plats and not heretofore so dedicated; and
WHEREAS, after examination, it has been found to be in the best interest of the City to accept said plats and; now, therefore
WHEREAS, an emergency exists in the usual daily operation of the Department of Public Service and Transportation in that it is immediately necessary to pass this ordinance as an emergency measure because construction of the public improvements is ahead of schedule. Construction will be completed approximately 3-4 weeks before the subdivision plat would be approved, if by 30 day legislation. Therefore, we would like to request emergency action so that we are able to record the plat at about the same time the construction ends. This would expedite the sale of the lots and allow for the submittal of building permits for new home construction for the preservation of the public health, peace, property, safety, and welfare; now therefore:
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLUMBUS:
Section 1. That the plat titled CANAL CROSSING SECTION 1 on file in the office of the City Engineer, Transportation Division, be and the same is hereby accepted.
Section 2. That the plat titled CANAL CROSSING SECTION 2 on file in the office of the City Engineer, Transportation Division, be and the same is hereby accepted.
Section 3. That this ordinance shall take effect and be in force from and after the earliest period allowed by law.
That for the reasons stated in the preamble hereto, which is hereby made a part hereof, this ordinance is hereby declared to be an emergency measure and shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage and approval by the Mayor, or ten days after passage if the Mayor neither approves nor vetoes the same.
