Improvements will consist of new curbs, sidewalks, storm sewer, electric distribution relocation, and street lighting.
The owner of the concrete retaining walls, Nicholas Barons at 273 N Wheatland Avenue Columbus, Ohio 43204 (parcel 010-030233), has requested that the City grant a Revocable Encroachment Easement to allow their concrete retaining walls (0.0020 acres) to remain on City property within existing right-of-way.
