EXPLANATION
BACKGROUND:
The City is required to authorize the acquisition and acceptance of any real estate conveyed to the City. This means periodically the City must formally accept certain real estate previously conveyed to the City (defined, collectively, “Real Estate,” and further described in Sections One (1) and Two (2) of this ordinance), because the Real Estate was not the subject of any previous legislation authorizing the Real Estate’s acquisition and acceptance.
The City is using the Real Estate for various public purposes, including but not limited to sewerage, drainage, water, electric, and other general utilities, pedestrian and vehicular traffic control, pedestrian and vehicular access and parking, parkland and conservation, landscaping, signs, ADA-compliant sidewalks, walkways, bikeways, access, shared-use paths, and associated appurtenances. The Real Estate was recorded in the public land records in the applicable county in the state of Ohio. Additionally, it may be necessary for the City to enter into agreements, as approved by the City Attorney, with the grantors of the Real Estate in order to address any real estate tax or assessment implications associated with the City’s acquisition and acceptance of the Real Estate.
