...Explanation

BACKGROUND: The City possesses title to a sanitary sewer easement described and recorded in Instrument Number 197911150033209, Recorder’s Office, Franklin County, Ohio (“Easement”). The Easement burdens real property located in the vicinity of the intersection of 1564 McNaughten Road {Franklin County Tax Parcel 550-156222} (“Servient Estate”) currently owned by Waldren Woods 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 a 0.224 acre portion of the existing Easement and determined that the portion of the Easement is no longer needed as the sewer in CC-4866 was never constructed. DPU has determined that terminating the City’s rights to the portion of the Easement does not adversely affect the City and should be granted at no monetary cost.

FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.

EMERGENCY JUSTIFICATION: Not applicable.
