Explanation
BACKGROUND:
The City owns real property located in the vicinity of the intersection of Galloway Road and O’Harra Road Columbus, Ohio 43219 {Franklin County Tax Parcel 240-006841} which is managed by the Recreation and Parks Department (“CRPD”). Prairie Township (“Prairie”) is a partner with the City in developing the Hell Branch multi use trail (“Trail’). A portion of Prairie’s connector impacts City property and Prairie now requests that the City grant them an easement to install, operate, and maintain the Trail. The Easement area impacts a 0.171 acre tract of City property which is more fully described in the attached two (2) page Exhibit.
CRPD has reviewed this matter and supports granting a 0.171 acre non-exclusive Easement to Prairie at no cost. Accordingly, this ordinance authorizes the director of CRPD, on behalf of the City, to execute and acknowledge any necessary instrument(s), as approved by the City Attorney, in order to quit claim grant the Easement to Prairie.
