Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City possesses title to a sewer utility easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 201602050014969, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located along Hamilton Road, Columbus, OH 43054 {Franklin County Tax Parcel 545-295304} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned by Wesley Woods At New Albany LLC. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (DPU) has revised its plans for sewer relocation and determined that a portion of the 18” inch sanitary mainline that was installed under RP 8632 no longer needs to be relocated and that terminating a portion of the City’s rights to the Easement that was acquired for this relocation does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no monetary cost, because the City no longer needs this portion of the Easement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Not applicable.
