Explanation

The City of Columbus, Public Service Department, Transportation Division, received a request from The Ohio State University asking that the City sell them the following portions of City owned right-of-way: 1) the alley east of Kenney Road from the alley north of Preston Avenue to a point 120 feet north of said alley, 2) Wood Avenue from the alley north of Preston Avenue to its northern terminus, 3) the alley east of Wood Avenue from the alley north of Preston Avenue to its northern terminus, and 4) the alley east of Kenney Road from Legg Avenue to Preston Avenue. Sale of these excess rights-of-way will allow The Ohio State University to construct a new garage facility and provide for other future development. After investigation it has been determined there are no objections to the sale of these excess rights-of-way subject to the retention of a general utility easement. A negotiated value of $91,425.00 was established for these rights-of-way based upon professional appraisals of the areas to be transferred. The Land Review Commission voted to recommend that these rights-of-way be transferred to The State of Ohio for the use of The Ohio State University for $91,425.00.

Fiscal Impact: The City will receive a total of $91,425.00, to be deposited in Fund 748, Project 537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested rights-of-way.

Emergency Justification: Emergency action is requested to allow The Ohio State University to begin construction of their new facilities as early as possible in the fourth quarter of State fiscal year 2004.
