Explanation
BACKGROUND: The City possesses title to a sanitary sewer easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 200503220052837, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located at 1662 Harrisburg Pike {Franklin County Tax Parcel 425-270757} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned by Briggsdale Apartments II, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (DPU) has reviewed the request by the property owner to vacate a portion of the existing easement and determined that a portion of the sanitary sewer installed under CC 14071 (now R.P. 11666-68) was not needed and could be removed or abandoned in place under this new plan, CC 17620. DPU has determined that 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.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
EMERGENCY JUSTIFICATION: Emergency action is requested in order to immediately release the easement to allow for further development of the parcel.
