Explanation

Background: The City of Columbus, Public Service Department, Transportation Division, received a request from adjacent property owners asking that the City sell them the second unimproved alley west of Northwest Boulevard from Ida Avenue to the alley north thereof. Sale of this alley to Asim Sheikh and Nelda Gentile will allow for side yard expansion of their abutting lots. After investigation by the Transportation Division staff it was determined there are no objections to the sale of this excess right-of-way subject to the retention of a general utility easement for those utilities currently located within this right-of-way. A value of $12,870.00 has been established by the Department of Law, Real Estate Division, for this right-of-way. The Land Review Commission voted to recommend that this right-of-way be transferred to the adjoining property owners for $12,870.00.

Fiscal Impact: The City will receive a total of $12,870.00, to be deposited in Fund 748, Project 537650, as consideration for the transfer of the requested right-of-way.
