Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
In 1993, pursuant to Ordinance 2030-93, the City of Columbus transferred a portion of right-of-way known as West State Street between Green Street and State Route 315 and reserved a utility easement for existing utilities. The Department of Public Service recently received a request from the property owner, Near East Side Holdings LLC, asking that the City release the reserved easement over this area to clear title for this site. After receipt of 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 this easement, located within the requested area, and that they have no objections to this portion of the easement being released. The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary to release the portions of easement as described below and on the attached exhibit to allow the area to clear title for this site.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City will receive a total of $500.00 to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for releasing the easement.
