EXPLANATION

BACKGROUND:

The City’s Department of Public Service is currently engaged in the Arterial Rehabilitation - Polaris Parkway at Orion Place project (DEL-CR615-0.000 PID 95549) (“Public Project”). The Public Project encompasses widening Polaris Parkway to provide a third through lane in both directions from I-71 to Olde Worthington Road, including the construction of a two-lane roundabout at the intersection of Olde Worthington Road and Orion Place. This project also includes the installation of a shared use path, sidewalk, traffic signal replacement, landscaping and street lighting. The City must acquire certain fee simple title and lesser real estate located in the vicinity of the public right-of-way of Polaris Parkway, Columbus, Ohio 43240 (collectively, “Real Estate”) in order for DPS to complete the Public Project.

Accordingly, the City intends to appropriate and accept the Real Estate in the event the City Attorney is unable to (i) locate the owners of the Real Estate, or (ii) agree with the owners of the Real Estate in good faith regarding the amount of just compensation.
