Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City of Columbus, Ohio ("City") holds title to sewer utility easement rights described and recorded in instrument number 201102230026323, Recorder's Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Old Easement”). The Board of Trustees of The Ohio State University (“OSU”), requests the City to release its sewer easement rights in the Old Easement. The City’s Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drains, reviewed, approved, and determined releasing the City’s sewer utility easement rights in the Old Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be released at no cost, because OSU granted the City a new, replacement easement described and recorded in instrument number 201306280108823, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Replacement Easement). Therefore, the following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Utilities to execute those documents, as prepared by the Columbus City Attorney, Real Estate Division, necessary to forever release, relinquish, and discharge to OSU the City's sewer utility easement rights in the Old Easement.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
EMERGENCY JUSTIFICATION: Not applicable.
