Explanation
BACKGROUND: The City possesses title to a sanitary sewer easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 194104170610233, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located near the intersection of Third Avenue and Edgehill Road {Franklin County Tax Parcel 010-063723} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned Edgehill LLC., an Ohio limited liability company. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (“DPU”) has reviewed the request by the property owner to vacate the existing easement and determined that the sanitary sewer was removed under CC 16901 (now RP17817-RP17818), and the existing easement is no longer needed. DPU has determined that terminating the City’s rights to the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no monetary cost.
