Explanation
1. Background
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from the site owner, ACC OP (LANE & HIGH) LLC, asking that the City allow the installation of a pedestrian bridge over a 20-foot Alley, located at the first alley west of North High Street and just south of Norwich Avenue, within the public right-of-way. The proposed bridge will extend on either side of the 20-foot alley right-of-way. The development is proposed student housing of two buildings with approximately 198 residential units. During the design phase of the proposed buildings, 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 this aerial encroachment and legally allow the installation of the pedestrian bridges to extend over the public rights-of-way of the 20-foot Alley. A value of $500.00 for the encroachment easement was established.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City will receive a total of $500.00, to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for granting the requested encroachment.
