Title
Authorizing the Mayor to execute and deliver needed instruments for the granting of an easement and right of access to the City of Oregon, on a portion of city-owned real property located north of Corduroy Rd. and east of Collins Park Ave.; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
This Ordinance authorizes the city’s granting of an easement and right of access to the City of Oregon, for the replacement and repair of the Corduroy Rd. bridge over Otter Creek.
This easement granting includes both a permanent easement to encompass the extension of the bridge wingwalls adjacent to Corduroy Rd., giving better hydraulic flow conditions in Otter Creek as well as additional temporary easement to facilitate construction of the bridge replacement and construction of temporary fencing to ensure continuous site security at the adjacent Collins Park Water Treatment Plant. As this granting of easement will facilitate replacement of infrastructure adjacent to the Collins Park Water Treatment Plant without causing harm or conflict to the adjacent lagoon operations and general operation of the Collins Park Water Treatment Plant, it is in the Division of Water Treatment’s interests to grant this easement to help ensure safe conveyance of the adjacent Otter Creek stormwater flow.
Summary
NOW THEREFORE Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:
SECTION 1. That the Mayor, the Law Department and the Water Treatment Division of the Department of Public Utilities are authorized to execute and deliver needed or appropriate instruments for the conveyance of an easement and right of access to the City of Oregon over a portion of city-owned property located north of Corduroy Rd. and east of Collins Park Ave., more fully described in EXHIBIT A – Perpetual Easement and EXHIBIT A – Temporary Easement.
SECTION 2. That it is found and determined that the rights being granted within this easement and right of access area are not needed by the city for any municipal purposes and that it is in the best interest of the city to grant this easement and right of access to aid the City of Oregon in its maintenance duties relative to the bridge abutting City property.
SECTION 3. That it is found and determined that all formal actions of Council concerning and relating to the passage of this Ordinance were adopted in an open meeting of Council, and that all deliberations of Council and any of its committees that resulted in such formal action were in meetings open to the public in compliance with all legal requirements, including Section 121.22 of the Ohio Revised Code.
SECTION 4. That this Ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and shall take effect and be in force immediately from and after its passage. The reason for the emergency lies in the fact that the same is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety and property and for the further reason that this ordinance must be immediately effective in order to grant an easement.
