Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City possesses title to a sanitary sewer utility easement described and recorded in Deed Book 778, Page 343, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located at 4895 Olentangy Blvd, Columbus, OH 43214 {Franklin County Tax Parcels 010-083914 and 010-083915} (“Servient Estate”). The existing owner of the Servient Estate, Patrick Bigler and Annette Bigler, Ohio residents (“Property Owner”) requested the City to release and terminate a portion of its rights to the Easement in order to clean the Servient Estate’s title. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (DPU) reviewed the Property Owner’s request and determined releasing and terminating a portion of the City’s rights to the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no monetary cost because the City relocated the infrastructure associated with a portion of the Easement under an easement granted in Instrument Number 201606300084354.
