Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
In 1966, pursuant to Ordinance 1151-66, the City of Columbus vacated a portion of Seventh Avenue between the east right-of-way line of High Street and the west right-of-way line of Pearl Street and reserved a utility easement for existing utilities. The Department of Public Service recently received a request from CA Student Living Columbus Property Owner, LLC asking that the City release the reserved easement over this area to clear title and allow the redevelopment of the site. After receipt of this request the Department of Public Service Division of Infrastructure Management verified with all the public and private utility companies that there are no public utilities or need for this easement, located within the requested area and that they have no objections to this portion of the easement being released. The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute those documents necessary to release the portions of easement described below and attached exhibit to allow the redevelopment of the real property.
2. Fiscal Impact
The City will receive a total of $500.00, to be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537650, for releasing of the easement so the property can be redeveloped.
