Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City possesses title to a sewer utility easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 200503250055636, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio ("Easement"). The existing servient tenement of the Easement, The Ravines at Rocky Ridge, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Developer”), requested the City to release a portion of the City's rights from the Easement, because a portion of the Easement may unnecessarily burden the Developer’s real property. The Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drainage, reviewed and determined releasing a portion of the City's rights to the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no cost, because the City no longer requires sewer utility easement rights to the portion of the Easement the Developer requests to be released, as the City (i) removed, abandoned, and relocated portions of the infrastructure associated with the Easement; and (ii) secured a replacement easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 201308290147255, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County Ohio. Accordingly, this ordinance authorizes the City’s director of the Department of Public Utilities to execute those documents, as approved by the City Attorney, necessary to release a portion of the City's rights from the Easement.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
EMERGENCY JUSTIFICATION: Not applicable.
