1. Background
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, Division of Infrastructure Management, received a request from the property owner, 280 High Street LLC, asking that the City allow building elements to encroach into the public right-of-way. The project is located at 280 North High Street. This proposed building will have approximately 148 residential units, office space, building support and storage. This project is an addition and remodel of a portion of the existing building. The encroachments consist of a canopy and balconies that will extend into the right-of-way. These building elements will extend into the public right-of-way as described below and shown on the attached exhibits.
The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary for the City to grant these encroachments and legally allow the building elements to extend into the public right-of-way. Allowing the building elements to extend into the right-of-way will enhance the building and support the overall architectural character and design of the proposed building. A $500.00 value for the encroachment easements 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.
