Explanation
The City of Columbus, Public Service Department, Transportation Division, received a request from H & G Properties, LLC, asking that the City sell that portion of Cypress Avenue (the 20 foot wide alley east of North Glenwood Avenue) from the alley north of Scott Street to Cable Avenue. The sale of this right-of-way will allow H & G Properties to expand their parking and to provide additional security to their adjacent properties. Per current Transportation Division practice, comments were solicited from interested parties, including City departments, private utilities and applicable area commissions, before it was determined that there would be no adverse impact to the City upon transfer of this right-of-way subject to the retention of a general utility easement for those utilities currently located within Cypress Avenue. The Department of Law, Real Estate Division, established a value of $3,300.00 for this right-of-way. The Land Review Commission voted to recommend that this right-of-way be transferred to H & G Properties, LLC for $3,300.00.
Fiscal Impact: The City will receive a total of $3,300.00, to be deposited in Fund 748, Project 537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested right-of-way.
