Explanation
1. Background
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from David Perry, agent for NAMS, LLC, asking that the City sell them an approximate 0.146 acre portion of the unnamed east/west right-of-way between Duncan and Hudson Streets, west of Neil Avenue.
Sale of this right-of-way will provide enhanced parking facilities for a planned development on property owned by NAMS, LLC. The Department of Public Service has agreed to sell the right-of-way as described and shown within attached legal description and exhibit, and extinguishes its need for this public right-of-way. Per current practice, comments were solicited from interested parties including City agencies, private utilities, and the applicable area commission before it was determined that, subject to the retention of a general utility easement for those utilities currently located within this right-of-way, the City will not be adversely affected by the transfer of this right-of-way. The Department of Public Service submitted a request to the City Attorney’s Office asking that they establish a value for this right-of-way, and a value of $25,360.00 was established. This request went before the Land Review Commission on August 15, 2019. After review of the request, the Land Review Commission voted to recommend the above referenced right-of-way be transferred to NAMS, LLC at the cost of $25,360.00.

The City will not expend funds for this transaction. The City will receive a total of $25,360.00 and the funds are to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested right-of-way.
