Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service is currently engaged in a project identified as Schiller Park Entrance project (3236 E). The goal of this project is to modify the northwest corner of the intersection of Jaeger Street and Deshler Avenue, also the existing drive entrance to Schiller Park, to construct a pedestrian refuge island and new ADA compliant curb ramps.
During design of the Schiller Park Entrance project, it was determined a portion of real property owned by the City of Columbus known as 1000 City Park Avenue, Franklin County Parcel Numbers, 010 066805 would need to be dedicated for roadway purposes to accommodate the improvements contemplated by this project. Current plans for the improvements indicate Parcel 1 WD, totaling 0.034 acre, will need to be dedicated as right of way for this purpose. After review of the preliminary plan sheets, the Department of Public Service has determined the dedication of this property to right of way will not adversely affect the City and should be allowed to proceed.
The following legislation permits the City to dedicate the property as road right of way and name the road right of way as Deshler Avenue.
2. FISCAL IMPACT
