Explanation
BACKGROUND: The City possesses title to utility easements described and recorded in Deed Book 3118, Page 603 and Deed Book 3118, Page 619 as amended in Deed Book 3200, Page 286, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located in the vicinity of 3100 Olentangy River Road {Franklin County Tax Parcel 010-117351} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned by UPH Holdings, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (“DPU”) has reviewed a request by the owner of the Servient Estate to vacate the existing Easement and determined that the Easement is no longer needed as a new easement was recorded in Instrument Number 201512290181395. 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.
