Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City’s Department of Public Service (DPS) received a request from 4701 Rexwood Drive Apartments Investors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rexwood”), to vacate and transfer a 0.010 acre, approximately, parcel of existing right-of-way (“Parcel 21-V”). DPS, after reviewing Rexwood’s request to acquire Parcel 21-V, determined granting Parcel 21-V to Rexwood for no monetary consideration is in the City’s best interest, because the City’s transfer of Parcel 21-V will facilitate and acquisition needed for the construction of the City’s nearby Hamilton Road, Phase-B S-Curve (PID 530103-100055) Public Improvement Project (“Public Project”). For the aforementioned reason we are requesting a waiver of the Land Review Commission provisions of Columbus City Code, Section 328.01.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Not applicable.
EMERGENCY DESIGNATION:
Emergency action is requested in order to transfer Parcel 21-V and allowing DPS to timely complete the Public Project without unnecessary delay, which will preserve the public peace, health, property, safety, and welfare.
