Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City possesses title to a detention pond easement described and recorded in Official Record Volume 18680, Page F04, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio ("Easement"). The existing servient tenement of the Easement, North Hamilton Shoppes LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Developer”), requested the City to release all of the City's rights from the Easement, because the Easement may unnecessarily burden the Developer’s real property. The Department of Public Utilities (DPU) reviewed the Developer’s request and determined releasing all of the City's rights to the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no cost, because the City removed, abandoned, or relocated all of the infrastructure associated with the Easement.
