Explanation

1. Background:
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from The Division of Recreation and Parks asking that the City transfer the maintenance responsibilities for the rights-of-way identified as an approximate 0.038 acre portion of the 15 foot wide east/west right-of-way north of Hinkle Avenue between Bruck and 6th Streets, and an approximate 0.034 acre portion of the 15 foot wide north/south right-of-way west of Bruck Street between Barthman and Hinkle Avenues. These parcels are located within property owned by The Division of Recreation and Parks, known as Southeast Lions Park. Transfer of these rights-of-way will allow the combining of parcels currently owned by The Division of Parks and Recreation. The Division of Recreation and Parks has requested that these rights-of-way be transferred to facilitate the proposed renovation project for Southeast Lions Park. Per current practice, comments were solicited from interested parties, including City agencies, private utilities and the applicable area commission, before it was determined that, subject to the retention of a general utility easement for those utilities currently located within this right-of-way, the City will not be adversely affected by the transfer of these rights-of-way.
