Explanation
1. Background:
The City of Columbus, Department of Public Service, received a request from Gravity Project, LLC, requesting four encroachments into the public rights-of-way along the east side of N. May Avenue. The encroachments are four foundation piers along the east side of N. May Avenue, just north of W. Broad Street and as described below and shown on the attached exhibits. Per current practice, comments were solicited from interested parties including City agencies, private utilities, and the applicable area commission before it was determined the City will not be adversely affected by allowing the encroachments into the public rights-of-way. The following legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Service to execute documents necessary to grant these encroachment easements for the proposed building into the public rights-of-way. A value of $2,000.00 was established for the four encroachment easements. The funds will be deposited in Fund 7748, Project P537605.
