Title: To authorize the Director of the Department of Recreation and Parks to execute and grant a quitclaim deed of easement to the City of Worthington, Ohio, through a certain portion of that City owned property known as Antrim Park, and to the extent they may be applicable, to waive the competitive bidding and Land Review Commission requirements of the Columbus City Codes (1959) Revised, and to declare an emergency.
Explanation

Background: Ordinance No. 1076-2004 authorized the Director of Recreation & Parks Department to execute a deed of easement for temporary and perpetual easements to the City of Worthington, Ohio, for a main line extension, for which the City had already received for One Dollar and other valuable consideration. However, in January of this year it was determined by the City of Worthington that the legal descriptions for the subject perpetual and temporary easements were not correct. The City of Worthington has since provided the City of Columbus with the correct legal descriptions and plat for the easements required for this sanitary sewer main extension to connect into a sewer main in Columbus (Antrim Park). The main line extension will run into the city limits of Worthington for service to two sites in Worthington located on Olen Drive (a private drive) just East of Olentangy River Road. Therefore, it is now necessary that the City grant a new easement to the City of Worthington. After investigation it has been determined by the Department of Recreation and Parks that the conveyance of the new easements will not adversely affect the City. The Real Estate Division, Department of Law has determined that the easement should be granted in exchange for the previously given consideration. The following ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Recreation and Parks to execute a Quitclaim deed of easement and any ancillary documents necessary for the granting of the subject easement, more fully described in the body of this legislation.
Fiscal Impact: N/A:

Emergency Justification: In the spirit of inter-governmental cooperation, emergency action is requested as not to unduly delay the City of Worthington in construction and installation of the subject sanitary sewer line.
