Explanation
1. Background
In 1966 and 1968, pursuant to Ordinances 107-66 and 223-68 the City of Columbus transferred portions of rights-of-way, this being the first alley south of Norwich Avenue, running east and west and being the second alley west of High Street running north and south and subject to a general utility easement.
The Department of Public Service recently received a request from the property owner, ACC OP (LANE & HIGH) LLC, asking that the City release these easements over the property they own within this area to clear title. After receiving this request, the Department of Public Service Division of Infrastructure Management verified with all public and private utility companies that there are no public utilities or need for these easements, located within the requested area, and that they have no objections to this portion of these easements being released.
The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary to release the portion of easements as described below and within the attached exhibit, to allow for the property to clear title.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City will receive a total of $500.00, to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for granting the request to release the easements.
