Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City of Columbus, Ohio, an Ohio municipal corporation ("City"), holds title to a utility easement described and recorded in Official Record 21865, Page A01, Recorder's Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The existing servient tenement of the Easement, Community Shelter Board, an Ohio nonprofit corporation (“Board”), requests the City to release portions of the City’s rights from the Easement where the City’s infrastructure were removed, abandoned, or relocated. The City’s Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drains, reviewed, approved, and determined releasing certain portions of the City’s rights to the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no cost, because the portions of easement area the Board requests released are no longer needed by the City and are deemed unnecessary. Therefore, this ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Utilities to execute those documents prepared and approved by the Columbus City Attorney, Real Estate Division, necessary to release to the Board certain portions of the City's rights from the Easement.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
EMERGENCY JUSTIFICATION: Not applicable.
