Explanation

BACKGROUND: The City possesses title to a perpetual utility easement rights reserved and described and recorded in Instrument Number 201605170061956, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located in the vicinity of Nationwide Boulevard Columbus, Ohio 43215 {portions of Franklin County Tax Parcels 010-303975 010-300555 and 010-303976} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned by Confluence Development, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The City’s Department of Public Utilities (“DPU”) has reviewed a request by the owners of the Servient Estate to release certain 0.416 acre, 0.272 acre, and 0.084 acre portions of the existing Easement and determined that the portions of the Easement are no longer needed as new easements have been recorded and/or utilities have been relocated. 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.
