Explanation
Background - The City of Columbus, Public Service Department, Transportation Division, received a request from Robert and Hilma Kriss asking that the City transfer that portion of Charles Street from Park Street to the alley west thereof and a triangular portion of excess I-670 right-of-way north of the Charles Street right-of-way line to them. Transfer of these excess rights-of-way will allow Mr. and Mrs. Kriss to develop their adjacent property and provide the parking necessary for their proposed improvement. After investigation Transportation Division staff determined the triangular portion of excess I-670 right-of-way the Kriss' want to acquire is owned in fee by the City of Columbus and is encumbered by a State of Ohio Highway Easement. Transfer of the City's interest in the excess I-670 right-of-way will be contingent upon transfer of the Highway Easement by the State of Ohio. In addition Transportation Division Staff determined the City would need to retain easements for the I-670 retaining wall tie-backs, an access easement for maintenance of the I-670 retaining wall and railing and easements for existing utilities when transferring these rights-of-way. The City Attorney's Office, Real Estate Division, established a total value of $23,413.50 for these excess rights-of-way. The Land Review Commission voted to recommend that these rights-of-way be transferred to Robert and Hilma Kriss for $23,413.50.

Fiscal Impact: The City will receive a total of $23,413.50, to be deposited in Fund 748, Project 537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested rights-of-way.
